BH Galar Dog #2 (SD Zac-C) [GP 1/1] (Done)

[SET]
Swords Dance (Zacian-Crowned) @ Rusted Sword
Ability: Intrepid Sword
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def / 252 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Swords Dance
- Sunsteel Strike
- V-create / Headlong Rush
- Magical Torque / Bolt Strike

[SET COMMENTS]
Zacian-C is a decent sweeper, making great use of STAB Sunsteel Strike and its high Speed to find setup opportunities and begin a sweep. V-create can take down Fur Coat Celesteela with a bit of chip damage, but when using Headlong Rush, Zacian-C can take on Primordial Sea Solgaleo and Miraidon and doesn't lower its Speed. Magical Torque helps to deal with Miraidon and Ting-Lu as well as being a great way to revenge kill Mega Sceptile, Ultra Necrozma, and non-Shift Gear Mega Garchomp, while Bolt Strike helps against Ho-Oh and Mega Slowbro as well as Celesteela if not using V-create. Zacian-C struggles to reliably take down some physical walls like Mega Swampert and Celesteela depending on its coverage, so it enjoys having teammates like Choice Band Mega Garchomp, particularly if it uses Tough Claws Electro Drift, and Mega Blaziken that can take them down more reliably; they can also help pivot it onto the field. Zacian-C enjoys having teammates that use Nuzzle or Glare to paralyze Imposter users or Mega Alakazam, which is naturally faster than Zacian-C, as well having a teammate like Ice Scales Mega Audino or Ho-Oh that can help more reliably check Mega Alakazam. Zacian-C can be Impostor-proofed by Mega Swampert, Fur Coat Miraidon, and Mega Slowbro depending on its coverage moves.

Zacian-C is a decent sweeper, using its great Fairy/Steel-typing this isn't very great offensively outside of STAB Sunsteel which should be mentioned instead (its also not very great defensively because salt cure weak) and raw stats to find set up opportunities and begin a sweep this needs to mention its speed when its the major point for it. V-create can take down Pokemon like Mega Steelix after a Swords Dance, as well as Fur Coat Celesteela with a bit of chip damage steela and Imposter should be the main points steelix is practically irrelevant, when using Headlong Rush Zacian-C can take on Eternatus and Primordial Sea Registeel Fire immune steels and electric types, no etern, as well it helps to not lower its Speed. Magical Torque helps to deal with Miraidon and Ting-Lu as well as being a great STAB move stab part is fluff, should mention RK potential on chomp/scept/unecro, while Bolt Strike helps against Ho-Oh and Mega Slowbro. Ball Fetch is there for flavor, it’s changed to Intrepid Sword in battle remove. Zacian-C perfers to be on offensive teams due to Intrepid Sword, so it enjoys having teammates like Miraidon and Mega Blaziken who can reliably beat its checks like Mega Slowbro and Celesteela respectively, as well they can help pivot it onto the field this is not accurate, Zac works completely fine on Balance and ISword is not a major factor esp considering Imp basically always forces you out, while balance can fit improofs better and provides more utility support (and also offense is just not the default in meta), and Miraidon does not work because its a special attacker, you can instead consider chomp. There should be a part on other support, examples (you can do something different) is like para for imp, something for zam. Zacian-C can be improofed by Fur Coat Celesteela when not using V-create or Bolt Strike, Fur Coat Miraidon when not using Magical Torque or Headlong Rush, and Slowbro-Mega when not using Bolt Strike just compress this entire sentence using something like "depending on its coverage moves", also mention mega swampert, don't mention steela because you should always have a move to hit that.

V-create can take down Fur Coat Celesteela with a bit of chip damage, when using Headlong Rush Zacian-C can take on Primordial Sea Registeel Primordial Sea Solgaleo more relevant mon imo and Miraidon, as well it helps to not lower its Speed. Magical Torque helps to deal with Miraidon and Ting-Lu as well as being a great way to revenge kill Mega Sceptile, Necrozma-U, and non-Shift Gear Mega Garchomp prolly mention that its stab, while Bolt Strike helps against Ho-Oh and Mega Slowbro possibly celes asw if you aren't vc (mention that you aren't vc tho). Zacian-C struggles to reliably take down some physical walls like Mega Slowbro Mega Swampert both mons mentioned were weak to bolt and Celesteela depending on coverage, so it enjoys having teammates like Choice Band Mega Garchomp cb alone doesn't beat bro that consistently so possibly mention tc + edrift and Mega Blaziken who can take them down more reliably, as well they can help pivot it onto the field. Zacian-C enjoys having teammates that use Nuzzle or Glare to Paralyze Imposter users or Mega Alakazam due to it being naturally faster than Zacian-C, as well having a teammate like Blissey would personally do ice scales audino here bc psystrike and Ice Scales Ho-Oh can help more reliably check Mega Alakazam. Zacian-C can be improofed by Mega Swampert, Fur Coat Miraidon, and Mega Slowbro depending on it's coverage moves.
