Need a hard-hitting metal elephant that can check Fairy-types? Look no further! Copperajah is the most commonly used Pokemon in the NU metagame, and for good reason. While it does function mostly as a Stealth Rock setter, check to Fairy-types, and a decent special tank to annoy foes like Rotom-C and Starmie, it's a decent offensive threat, too! Heat Crash and STAB Heavy Slam are a lethal combo, while Power Whip punishes Water-types like Vaporeon that otherwise easily switch into Copperajah. Because of such virtually perfect coverage, switching into Copperajah can be difficult for teams. Fire- and Ground-types like Salazzle, Arcanine, and Mudsdale are good at forcing Copperajah out. Pokemon such as Vaporeon and Sylveon can take hits from these while also keeping Copperajah healthy with Wish and Heal Bell, making them useful partners. Sylveon can also switch into Fighting-types that can offensively pressure Copperajah.

Need a hard-hitting metal elephant that can check Fairy-types? Look no further! Copperajah is arguably (this isn't a matter of opinion; usage stats state Copperajah is for certain the most-used Pokemon in NU) the most commonly used Pokemon in the NU metagame and for good reason. While it does function mostly as a Stealth Rock setter and Fairy-type check, it dual functions as a decent offensive threat too! Its ability in Heavy Metal (the ability has very little importance here; yeah it makes the moves stronger, but Steel + Fire is just generally great coverage on its own) makes Heat Crash and STAB Heavy Slam a lethal combo and tough to switch into, while Power Whip punishes Water-types like Vaporeon that think they're safe from both of those moves. Not even Bronzong is safe from this thing since Heat Crash 2HKOes it. (not really notable at all) (some generic sentence here that says Copperajah is generally unpleasant to try to figure out how to switch into would be ideal) Additionally, it serves as a decent special tank to annoy foes like Rotom-C and Starmie. The given EV spread allows it to outspeed uninvested base 40 Pokemon like Dhelmise while maximizing its special bulk and attacking power. (not worth mentioning here because it doesn't really contribute to Copperajah's role or place in the current metagame) Ground- and Fighting-types like Flygon and Sirfetch'd will prevent Copperajah from doing its job. Sylveon works well as a partner to handle such threats. Furthermore, Fire-types like Talonflame and Arcanine can either burn Copperajah via Flame Body or wall all of its attacks. Vaporeon can easily check foes such as these. (these sentences feel very weird to make separate, especially when you denote one teammate for example for each---examples that supply quite similar roles. The first sentence is also quite vague; "prevent Copperajah from doing its job" doesn't really tell the reader anything. What I'd do is make a sentence about how Fire- and Ground-types (certain Ground-types obv) can switch into and check Copperajah and then list Vaporeon and Sylveon together as great teammates. Feel free to include a mention of how Copperajah can be exploited by Fighting-types and teammates that help against those too.)

Because of this, Copperajah is generally unpleasant to try to figure out and switch into.(look man I purposefully use unhelpful phrasing because I want this to be written in your voice, so reword this in a way that doesn't sound so weird) Additionally, it serves as a decent special tank to annoy foes like Rotom-C and Starmie. Fire-types like Salazzle and Arcanine force Copperajah out, while Ground-types like Mudsdale do the same. Therefore, partners like Vaporeon and Sylveon are appreciated to take those hits. Sylveon can also switch into Fighting-types that can offensively pressure Copperajah.(I definitely said you should include the fact that both Vaporeon and Sylveon are Wish passers with Heal Bell)

Need a hard-hitting metal elephant that can check Fairy-types? Look no further! Copperajah is the most commonly used Pokemon in the NU metagame, (AC) and for good reason. While it does function mostly as a Stealth Rock setter and Fairy-type check to Fairy-types, it dual functions as it's a decent offensive threat, (AC) too! Heat Crash and STAB Heavy Slam are a lethal combo, while Power Whip punishes Water-types like Vaporeon that think they're safe from both of those moves that otherwise easily switch into Copperajah. Because of this, switching into Copperajah becomes more problematic given its practically perfect coverage. Because of such virtually perfect coverage, switching into Copperajah can be difficult for teams. Additionally, it serves as a decent special tank to annoy foes like Rotom-C and Starmie. (i feel like you should somehow incorporate this bit into the fourth sentence where you're talking about the other roles that raj performs.) Fire-types like Salazzle and Arcanine force Copperajah out, while Ground-types like Mudsdale do the same. Fire- and Ground-types like Salazzle, Arcanine, and Mudsdale are good at forcing Copperajah out. Therefore, Wish and Heal Bell partners like Vaporeon and Sylveon are appreciated to take those hits. Pokemon such as Vaporeon and Sylveon can take hits from these Pokemon while also keeping Copperajah healthy with Wish and Heal Bell, making them useful partners. Sylveon can also switch into Fighting-types that can offensively pressure Copperajah.
