Glimmora @ Focus Sash

Tera Type: Ghost
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Power Gem
- Mortal Spin
- Earth Power / Spiky Shield

Glimmora corrodes the metagame in Doubles OU! Glimmora's primary objective is to poison foes and deal chip damage by setting Stealth Rock and Toxic Spikes via Toxic Debris. It also spreads poison with Mortal Spin while removing entry hazards set by its foes. Glimmora has a respectable Special Attack, OHKOing premier DOU threats like Tornadus, Ogerpon-H, and Chien-Pao with Power Gem after Stealth Rock damage and 2HKOing Gholdengo with Earth Power. Glimmora can opt to use Spiky Shield to increase its longevity, dealing chip damage to break Chien-Pao's Focus Sash and stalling out turns of Tailwind and Trick Room. Focus Sash ensures Glimmora takes two hits before fainting, and Tera Ghost provides an immunity to Fake Out from Iron Hands and Incineroar, as well as Fighting-type attacks from Iron Hands. Glimmora has a positive matchup against Tornadus structures, as it limits Tornadus's longevity by setting hazards. Glimmora appreciates partners that can deal with threats and checks such as Landorus, Ursaluna-B, and Amoonguss. Ogerpon-W, Ogerpon-H, and Chien-Pao outspeed and threaten to OHKO the aforementioned threats with help from Glimmora's hazards.

Glimmora corrodes the metagame in Doubles OU! Glimmora's primary objective is to Poison foes and deal chip damage by setting Toxic Spikes via Toxic Debris and setting up Stealth Rocks. Glimmora can (no need for can, it gets them spread) spreads Poison with Mortal Spin while removing hazards set by its foes. Glimmora also has a solid has a respectable Special Attacking stat presence, dealing good damage to OHKOing premier DOU threats with help from Stealth Rock damage like Tornadus, Ogerpon-H, and Chien-Pao with Power Gem, and 2HKOing Gholdengo with Earth Power. Glimmora can opt to use Spiky Shield to increase its longevity, while dealing chip damage and breaking Chien-Pao's Focus Sash. Good overview of why spiky shield is used, could maybe expand on this with mention of speed control options like tornadus or diancie and stalling out turns of trick room or tailwind if you have enough space. Focus Sash ensures Glimmora takes two hits before going down fainting, and Tera Ghost provides immunities immunity to Fake Out disruption support from Iron Hands or Incineroar, as well as Fighting type attacks from threats like and Iron Hands's Drain Punch. Glimmora appreciates partners which can deal with threats and checks such as Landorus and Iron Hands (Iron Hands doesn't necessarily check glimmora, glimm is able to trade damage with it while setting up t-spikes in the process, would rather see mention of ursaluna blood moon and amoonguss here for their ability to threaten and remove glimm's t-spikes). Ogerpon-W, Ogerpon-H, and Chien-Pao are natural partners for Glimmora outspeeding and threatening OHKOes on Landorus, Ursaluna-Bloodmoon, Gholdengo, and Amoonguss with help from Glimmora's entry hazards. with their Water- and Ice-type STABs. Incineroar and a partner Landorus can weaken or threaten Iron Hands. Incineroar's Intimidate and Will-o-Wisp decreases Iron Hand's damage output, and Landorus's Earth Power threatens huge damage. Glimmora supports these allies with Poison chip damage, granting easy KOes. I think these last couple sentences do not add very much to the analysis, and are pretty generic. I would use this space for expansion on how amoonguss can be problematic for glimmora teams, and how glimmora helps to threaten pokemon like tornadus who are at the center of the metagame.

Overall good work, ping me for a recheck after implemented please

I would move the last sentence above your partners sentences, and would phrase it something along the lines of "Glimmora has a positive matchup into Tornadus structures, limiting its longevity by setting entry hazards." Other than that looks good, go ahead and mark 1/1
