[SET COMMENTS]
Magic Guard Galarian Zapdos serves as a strong wallbreaker with immense longevity, capable of outlasting checks like its Kantonian counterpart, Corviknight, and Scream Tail. Magic Guard allows Galarian Zapdos to switch into passive foes like Garganacl and Toxapex scot-free while allowing it to use Brave Bird and Life Orb without drawback. U-turn allows Galarian Zapdos to pivot out on switch-ins like defensive Zapdos and Corviknight, while Bulk Up allows it to set up on passive foes like Quaquaval, Mandibuzz, and Empoleon. Knock Off cripples those aforementioned checks, notably forcing Zapdos to take Stealth Rock chip every time it switches in while being Galarian Zapdos's best move against Gholdengo; however, Agility is an option, especially in conjunction with Bulk Up, that allows Galarian Zapdos to clean late-game and outspeed the entire metagame. Revenge killers like Dragonite, Azelf, and Barraskewda can force Galarian Zapdos out, making defensive pivots like Corviknight, RegenVest Manaphy, and Meloetta great partners that can switch into them Galarian Zapdos's wallbreaking ability is appreciated by other physical wallbreakers like Chien-Pao, Weavile, and Barraskewda, which appreciate its ability to remove their checks like Quaquaval and defensive Kommo-o. Special wallbreakers and pivots like Walking Wake, Azelf, and Sandy Shocks appreciate Galarian Zapdos's ability to threaten their checks like RegenVest Manaphy and Roaring Moon, while they threaten its checks like defensive Zapdos and Corviknight in return.

Magic Guard Galarian Zapdos differentiates itself from its Choice Band set by trading in immediate power for greater longevity and utility instead of comparing it to another set, simply say that zapdos is a fantastic wallbreaker with good longevity/utility, capable of outlasting its checks like its Kantonian counterpart, Fluffy Corviknight, and Dondozo Scream Tail. Magic Guard allows Galarian Zapdos to switch into passive foes like Garganacl and Toxapex scot-free while allowing it to use Brave Bird and Life Orb without drawback. U-turn allows Galarian Zapdos to pivot out on switch-ins like defensive Zapdos and Corviknight while Bulk Up allows it to set up on passive foes like the aforementioned Garganacl and Toxapex i would use other examples of passive foes like mandibuzz and empoleon, which don't rely on passive damage as much but also can't threaten gapdos much themselves. Knock Off cripples those aforemention switchins, notably forcing Zapdos to take Stealth Rock chip every time it switches in, making it a less reliable switchin; however, Agility is an option, especially in conjunction with Bulk Up, that allows it to clean late game and outspeed the entire metagame. Revenge killers like Dragonite, and if Galarian Zapdos has not used Agility agility is a niche option to begin with Azelf, and Barraskewda can force Galarian Zapdos out, making defensive pivots like Corviknight, RegenVest Manaphy, and Meloetta great partners who can switch into them and pivot out. Galarian Zapdos's wallbreaking ability is appreciated by other physical wallbreakers like Chien-Pao, Weavile, and Barraskewda, who appreciate its ability to remove their checks like Quaquaval and defensive Kommo-o. you could also mention that special wallbreakers like walking wake can more reliably deal with its checks like corviknight and zapdos, while galarian zapdos can better handle special walls like empoleon, blissey, and hisuian goodra

Knock Off cripples those aforemention aforementioned switch-ins, (AH) Do you mean the "checks" from the first sentence? It may better to word them as "checks" for clarity, or just list them again (list them again imo because theres a lot fo examples between those 2 lists and it could confuse a reader) notably forcing Zapdos to take Stealth Rock chip every time it switches in, making it a less reliable switch-in (AH) "making it a less reliable switch-in" is likely unnecessary since that's self-explanatory. If you do remove this phrase, remove the comma after "switches in" (or change to something like 'making it a less reliable check' to avoid direct repetition while keeping the point) while being its Galarian Zapdos's best move against Gholdengo; however, Agility is an option, especially in conjunction with Bulk Up, that allows it Galarian Zapdos to clean late-game (AH) and outspeed the entire metagame. Revenge killers like Dragonite, Azelf, and Barraskewda can force Galarian Zapdos out, making defensive pivots like Corviknight, RegenVest Manaphy, and Meloetta great partners who that can switch into them and pivot out. (pretty redunant with 'defensive pivots') Galarian Zapdos's wallbreaking ability is appreciated by other physical wallbreakers like Chien-Pao, Weavile, and Barraskewda, who which appreciate its ability to remove their checks like Quaquaval and defensive Kommo-o.
