Entei storms into battle in a blaze of glory! Entei is a true menace to many common Pokemon in the RU metagame, as its Sacred Fire wrecks common Pokemon like Jirachi and Bisharp in addition to inflicting a burn on common switch-ins like Hippowdon and Rhyperior. Extreme Speed allows it to pick off weakened faster threats such as Choice Scarf Galarian Zapdos and Gardevoir. Stone Edge grants Entei the ability to hit Salamence, Noivern, and Talonflame, which would otherwise switch into it comfortably. Tera Grass gives it the opportunity to resist its greatest weakness, Water, and to flip the switch on very sturdy checks like Slowbro, Suicune, Gastrodon, and Rhyperior with Tera Blast. Without expending Terastallization, this set is completely walled by bulky Water-type Pokemon, so Entei appreciates allies that can threaten them like Basculegion-F, Magnezone, and Galarian Zapdos; in return, Entei can muscle through their checks, including Registeel and Jirachi.

Include inflicting burn to Rhyperior as well, Espeed is good against Zapdos-G and Gardevoir, I wouldn't include Cyclizar who can't even threaten Entei offensively and Flygon, while valid does run Tera Steel often so it's not the best option here. Include Noivern for Stone Edge switch-ins. Gastrodon and Rhyperior > Vaporeon, maybe use a better support over Choice Specs Goodra-H since it is pretty out of favor atm, maybe Basculegion-F, Magnezone, and even Zapdos-G. I would also merge the last two sentences to make it more fluid.

When you're done ping me and I'll mark it checked.

Entei storms into battle in a blaze of glory! Entei is a true menace to many common Pokemon in the RU metagame, as Sacred Fire wrecks common Pokemon like Jirachi and Bisharp (RP), (AC) in addition (RC) to inflicting burn on common switch-ins like Hippowdon and Rhyperior. Extreme Speed allows it to pick off weakened faster threats such as Choice Scarf Galarian Zapdos and Choice Scarf Gardevior Gardevoir. Stone Edge grants Entei the opportunity ability (this is fine but you use "gives the opportunity" in the next sentence as well) to hit Salamance Salamence, Noivern, and Talonflame, (AC) which would otherwise switch into it comfortably. Tera Grass gives it the opportunity to resist its greatest weakness, (AC) Water, (AC) and to flip the switch on very sturdy checks like Slowbro, Suicune, Gastrodon, and Rhyperior. Without Tera Grass, (AC) this set is completely walled by bulky Water-type Pokemon, (AC) so it Entei appreciates allies that can threaten them like Basculeigon-F Basculegion-F, Magnezone, (AC) and Galarian Zapdos; in return, Entei can muscle through its their checks, (AC) including like (varying up word choice again) Registeel and Jirachi.
