Choice Specs Inteleon serves as a fast and powerful wallbreaker with its rain-boosted Hydro Pump that is able to 2HKO RegenVest Tinkaton and Garchomp and OHKO non-Water Abosrb Garganacl. It also boasts a good Speed tier that outpaces common offensive threats like Cinderace, Sandy Shocks, and Iron Moth. U-turn keeps up momentum against defensive answers like RegenVest Roaring Moon, and Mud Shot allows Inteleon to break Desolate Land Iron Moth. Ice Beam provides coverage against Dragon-types, Surf is a safer option when the raw power of Hydro Pump isn't needed, and Shadow Ball can OHKO Desolate Land Ghost-types in Skeledirge and Ceruledge. Inteleon struggles to break past the likes of RegenVest Roaring Moon and Desolate Land Volcarona, so it appreciates teammates such as Choice Band Slither Wing and offensive Iron Moth that can exploit these walls. Inteleon also partners up well with defensive pivots like Corviknight and RegenVest Roaring Moon that can safely pivot Inteleon in and also absorb attacks from revenge killers like Meowscarada and Kilowattrel.

Choice Specs Inteleon serves as a fast and powerful wallbreaker with its rain-boosted Hydro Pumps that is able to 2HKO RegenVest Tinkaton and Garchomp and OHKO non Water Absorb Garganacl. U-turn keeps up momentum against defensive answers and Mud Shot allows Inteleon to break Desolate Land Iron Moth. Ice Beam provides coverage against Dragon-types, (ac) while Surf is a safer option when the raw power of Hydro Pump isn't needed, (ac) and Shadow Ball can OHKO Desolate Land Ghost-types in Skeledirge and Ceruledge. Inteleon struggles to break past the likes of RegenVest Roaring Moon, (ac) Blissey and Desolate Land Volcarona so it appreciates teammates such as Choice Band Slither Wing and Offensive Iron Moth who can exploit these walls. Inteleon also partners up well with defensive pivots like Corviknight and RegenVest Roaring Moon who can safely pivot Inteleon in I'd specifically mention Well-Baked Body Corv here, as it can switch Intel into Desolate Land Fires and allow Intel to control the weather and also absorb attacks from revenge killers like Meowscarada and Kilowattrel.

Implemented AMQC! (Blissey example I didn't put in as Inteleon abuses it fairly easily with Specs Hydro Pump doing 40-45 to Calm variants and U-turn abusing it with no Regen, WBB Corv can maybe help but I ignored it as all Corviknight variants help it with pivot and absorbing revenge attempts and all Desoland Mons are threatened anyway and aren't safe walls to it, except Volc but Volc just U-turns on Corv in practice)

Tranquility
- Commas before 'and' 'but' 'or' are only needed if both clauses / parts of the sentence are independent. This means that if you separated them from the original sentence, they would still make sense as full sentences on their own. "U-turn keeps up momentum against defensive answers like RegenVest Roaring Moon and Mud Shot allows Inteleon to break Desolate Land Iron Moth. " are both independent clauses because they both would make sense as separate sentences. As such, a comma is needed before 'and'
- "Raw power" is totally fine to say and is just a way to describe the benefit of Hydro Pump; by removing this, you've made an unnecessary subjective change and slightly altered the writer's voice. This is a super minor one though, and I like how the rest of your check focuses on objective changes.
- Set names / playstyles (offensive, defensive, bulky, balance, stall etc) aren't capitalised in the analysis text. So it would be "offensive Iron Moth" instead of "Offensive Iron Moth." OM-specific terms like RegenVest Roaring Moon and set names that use a Pokemon term like Desolate Land Volcarona are fine to be capitalised
- Don't refer to Pokemon as "who" because they're not people. Use which or that, whichever one is appropriate.
I'd love to see some more checks from you, keep it up!
