[SET COMMENTS]
Galarian Corsola is a niche defensive option, using its massive Eviolite-boosted bulk and decent defensive typing to reliably deal with some of the strongest physical attackers in the tier, like Cobalion, Swords Dance Lucario, Choice Scarf Darmanitan, and Copperajah. It's an unreliable choice, though; its passiveness and reliance on Eviolite make it highly susceptible to Knock Off users like Machamp, Pangoro, and Escavalier. Machamp is particularly problematic, as it doesn't care about burns thanks to Guts. Galarian Corsola also incredibly weak to Incineroar, one of the most prominent Pokemon in the tier, as Incineroar is immune to Will-O-Wisp and always carries Knock Off to cripple Galarian Corsola. Pivot sets can also disrupt it with Toxic, while offensive sets use it as setup fodder to get a boost with Swords Dance. Will-O-Wisp allows Galarian Corsola to cripple physical attackers like Pangoro and Sirfetch'd, making them much easier to deal with, and Strength Sap also weakens them while providing Galarian Corsola with a decent method of recovering its health. Galarian Corsola's massive bulk makes it a decent Stealth Rock setter, but it's not consistent at keeping the entry hazard up due to being threatened by many common hazard removers, like Hurricane Noivern, Tsareena, and Mantine.

Galarian Corsola is restricted mostly to balanced and defensive teams, as its passive nature makes it dead weight on offense. Sylveon is a great teammate that can help with handling some of the Fighting-types Galarian Corsola can't deal with, like Pangoro and Sirfetch'd, as well as helping with Noivern. It can also provide Galarian Corsola with Wish and Heal Bell support, which is important, as Strength Sap is not reliable on its own and Galarian Corsola is highly vulnerable to Toxic. Umbreon appreciates Galarian Corsola's ability to deal with Cobalion and Lucario for it and also provides Wish and Heal Bell support like Sylveon does; it can also check threatening special attackers that Galarian Corsola can't deal with, like Chandelure, Toxtricity, and Necrozma. Galarian Weezing can form a potent defensive core with Galarian Corsola, being able to handle most of the physical attackers Galarian Corsola struggles with like Incineroar and Pangoro; however, it has to beware of Swords Dance sets from both of these threats. It also provides Defog support, which is important, as Galarian Corsola is very vulnerable to being worn down by entry hazards. Bulky Water-types like Milotic and Mantine can handle Pokemon Galarian Corsola struggles with, like Noivern, Escavalier, and Golisopod, and they appreciate its massive bulk allowing it to take on setup sweepers that they struggle with like Swords Dance Lucario. Teammates that can deal with Swords Dance Incineroar are very important for Galarian Corsola. Pokemon like Rotom-W, Milotic, and Blastoise can do this defensively, while Cobalion can check it offensively.

Galarian Corsola is a niche defensive option, using its massive Eviolite-boosted bulk and decent defensive typing to reliably deal with some of the strongest physical attackers in the tier, like Cobalion, Lucario, definitely mention something about how it has to be careful with mixed sets when not at full HP though and Choice Scarf Darmanitan add a mention of rajah here too, its a great check to it. It's an unreliable choice, though; its passiveness and reliance on Eviolite make it highly susceptible to Pokemon like Pangoro, Machamp, and Escavalier, all of which carry Knock Off mention something about how Machamp is an especially big issue due to Guts/not being bothered by burn. Will-O-Wisp allows Galarian Corsola to cripple physical attackers like Pangoro and Sirfetch'd, making them much easier to deal with, and Strength Sap also weakens them while providing Galarian Corsola with a decent method of recovering its health. Galarian Corsola's massive bulk makes it a decent Stealth Rock setter, but it's not consistent at keeping the hazard up due to being threatened by many common hazard removers, like Hurricane or Taunt Noivern (this is worth mentioning imo, Draco flamethrower sets will have a lot of difficulty actually pressuring you, and your diminishing returns don't matter as much when they have the same thing on their dmg, while hurricane is way more threatening with confusions and no drops), Tsareena, and Mantine. technically you do beat Tsareena, albeit at the cost of your eviolite.

Galarian Weezing can form a potent defensive core with Galarian Corsola, being able to handle most of the physical attackers Galarian Corsola struggles with like Incineroar and Pangoro. It doesn't really deal with SD Incineroar well though if it has Flare Blitz, which can freely SD on Corsola, so mentioning something that also checks this would be great! It also provides Defog support, which is important as Galarian Corsola is very vulnerable to being worn down by entry hazards. Bulky Water-types like Milotic and Mantine can handle Pokemon Galarian Corsola struggles with, like Noivern, Escavalier, and Golisopod, and they appreciate its massive bulk allowing it to take on setup sweepers that they struggle with like Swords Dance Lucario.

QC 1/2, fantastic work as always.

 

[Twilight]

In the first paragraph, I would add a line emphasizing how shit it is not being able to touch Incineroar given it's one of the best Pokemon in the metagame. You can say how it is vulnerable to Knock Off + Toxic and is set up fodder for SD sets.

Add partners that deal with SD Incin defensively/offensively

Bad Pokemon 2/2
