[SET COMMENTS]
Meowscarada finds itself as the best revenge killer to threatening setup sweepers such as Dragonite, Hydreigon, and Armarouge available to Grass teams thanks to its good offensive stats paired with a strong ability in Protean. This is further supported by a great Speed tier, which allows it to serve as a strong cleaner in multiple matchups such as versus Water, Fighting, Dark and Ghost teams with a Choice Scarf. Flower Trick enables Meowscarada to break through Defense boosted Pokemon such as Curse Dondozo, as well as Pokemon behind dual screens such as Flutter Mane. Play Rough provides the Fairy coverage that enables Meowscarada to threaten Fighting, Dragon, and Dark teams. U-turn is used to allow Meowscarada to pivot out against checks to it, such as Toxapex and Skeledirge, to bring in a teammate that can break through it, such as Breloom and Toedscruel, while also maintaining momentum.

While Meowscarada is an effective cleaner, it cannot exactly break through certain Pokemon by itself. Choice Band Breloom is a great teammate for Meowscarada, as it can break through Meowscarada's checks such as Toxapex, Kingambit, and Clodsire. Meowscarada is also vulnerable to Pokemon with strong priority and revenge killers faster than it such as Breloom and Choice Scarf Flutter Mane. Defensive walls such as Amoonguss and Wo-Chien can switch into said priority attacks and revenge killing attempts for Meowscarada. Amoonguss in particular also removes Toxic Spikes, which can be useful for Meowscarada and its teammates. Brambleghast and Toedscruel provide entry hazard removal in Rapid Spin, while also setting up hazards of their own in Spikes. Abomasnow gives an important Ice neutrality to Grass teams, which in tandem with the Defense boost provided by Snow allows it to serve as an answer to Ice-type threats such as Chien-Pao and Baxcalibur. Swords Dance Iron Leaves and Rotom-C provide counterplay to Corviknight that Grass teams otherwise lack, with the former appreciating Meowscarada pivoting out to it when facing Poison-types such as Dragalge and Toxapex, threatening Poison teams in general with its Psychic-type STAB moves and Fighting-type coverage attacks, while the latter forms a pivoting core with Meowscarada.

Meowscarada finds itself as the best revenge killer available to Grass teams thanks to its good offensive stats paired with a strong ability in Protean, and a great speed tier taken further with Choice Scarf that allows it to serve as a strong cleaner in multiple matchups such as versus Water, Fighting, Dark and Ghost teams. Flower Trick is the Grass attack of choice for Meowscarada not just for its decent base power, but also for its effect of always being a critical hit, enabling it to break through Defense boosted Pokemon (give an example or two). Play Rough provides the Fairy coverage that enables Meowscarada to threaten Fighting, Dragon and Dark teams. U-Turn is used to allow Meowscarada to pivot out to its teammates (such as? give a few examples of what its uturning on and what is coming in as a result, such as uturning on toxapex and bringing in a teammate that fares against it well) while also maintaining momentum. while being a safe move to click in the Dark matchup (try not to include dex info, uturn being strong against dark is something you would find out just by knowing type matchups). Knock Off provides utility and a strong Dark attack in one slot, removing held items from opposing Pokemon and cleaning through Ghost teams. (same thing as i just mentioned, doing !dt knock off and knowing type matchup gives you this info)

While Meowscarada is an effective cleaner, it cannot exactly break through certain Pokemon by itself. Choice Band Breloom is a great teammate for Meowscarada as it can break Pokemon that check Meowscarada such as Toxapex, Kingambit, and Clodsire. Meowscarada also cannot tank attacks well due to its middling defensive stats. Defensive walls such as Amoonguss and Wo-Chien can switch into opposing attacks (such as?) for Meowscarada, and Amoonguss in particular can also remove Toxic Spikes on its team’s side of the field. Brambleghast provides entry hazard removal in Rapid Spin while also setting up hazards of its own in Spikes. (add in another teammate)

Maybe adding an example that isnt bulky [eg. Gren, Specs Flutt sort of] would help, since there's really not much Curse/Bulk Up users rn to talk about...). Play Rough provides the Fairy coverage that enables Meowscarada to threaten Fighting, Dragon and Dark teams.

Abomasnow gives an important Ice neutrality to Grass teams which in tandem with the Defense boost provided by Snow allows it to serve as an answer to Ice-type threats such as Chien-Pao and Baxcalibur (Isnt this pretty odd since you give these guys a defensive boost too...).
*Add Iron Leaves, as it puts pressure on the Poison matchup, likes being pivoted into Poisons like Dragalge, Pex that swap into it. Can also SD to beat Corv. Speaking of Corv, Rotom-M is a neat mention too, probably alongside leaves

Choice Band Breloom is a great teammate for Meowscarada, (AC) as it can break through Pokemon that check Meowscarada's checks such as Toxapex, Kingambit, and Clodsire. Meowscarada is also vulnerable to Pokemon with strong priority attacks and revenge killers faster than it such as Breloom and Choice Scarf Flutter Mane. Defensive walls such as Amoonguss and Wo-Chien can switch into said priority attacks and revenge killing attempts for Meowscarada. Amoonguss in particular also removes Toxic Spikes, which can be useful for Meowscarada and its teammates. Brambleghast and Toedscruel provide entry hazard removal in Rapid Spin, while also setting up hazards of their own in Spikes. Abomasnow gives an important Ice neutrality to Grass teams, which in tandem with the Defense boost provided by Snow allows it to serve as an answer to Ice-type threats such as Chien-Pao and Baxcalibur. Swords Dance Iron Leaves and Rotom-C provide counterplay to Corviknight that Grass teams otherwise lack, with the former appreciating Meowscarada pivoting out to it when facing Poison-types such as Dragalge and Toxapex, threatening Poison teams in general with its Psychic-type STAB moves and Fighting-type coverage attacks, while the latter forms a pivoting core with Meowscarada.
