[SET COMMENTS]
Raging Bolt's amazing bulk, high Special Attack stat, and great typing both defensively and offensively allow it to become a dangerous wallbreaker and sweeper, threatening common defensive pieces like Toxapex, Moltres, and Zapdos. Draco Meteor brings Raging Bolt exceptional power, allowing it to OHKO Ground-types like Landorus-T, Garchomp, a Great Tusk trying to switch into it, the former with a Calm Mind boost. However, Dragon Pulse is a great option if you want consistent damage, threatening the opposition for longer at a time. Weather Ball is an amazing option when paired with weather teams, as it removes Grass-types like Ferrothorn and Rillaboom in sun and threatens Ground-types like Ting-Lu and Iron Treads in rain. Dragonium Z gives Raging Bolt a one-time nuke, letting it obliterate most non-resistant foes, such as Gliscor and Galarian Slowking, with a Calm Mind boost, opening up its teammates. Do note that Dragonium Z should only be used with Draco Meteor, as the damage reduction with Dragon Pulse is quite noticeable. Booster Energy boosts Raging Bolt's Special Attack, allowing it to get OHKOs on Pokemon that it would normally run from, such as Iron Valiant with Thunderclap and Gliscor with Draco Meteor, both at +1. Leftovers lets it switch into Pokemon like Mega Charizard Y and Ogerpon-W more consistently, allowing it to set up easily.

Raging Bolt is best on more offensive teams that appreciate it wearing down other Pokemon like Toxapex, Moltres, and Ting-Lu. Its main weakness is Ground-types like Ting-Lu, Gliscor, Great Tusk, and Landorus-T, as they can come in on a Thunderbolt and threaten it out with a super effective Earthquake. Pokemon like Urshifu-R, Ogerpon-W, and Hisuian Samurott can help remove these foes for Raging Bolt, and in return, it can eliminate bulky Water-types like Toxapex, Alomomola, and Slowbro. Hisuian Samurott in particular, along with Ferrothorn and Heatran, can set up entry hazards for Raging Bolt in order to chip down Pokemon like Ferrothorn and Ting-Lu into KO range of its attacks quicker. Raging Bolt doesn't have the best Speed stat, and that can be taken advantage of by Pokemon like Weavile and Choice Scarf Tapu Lele, which can bypass its Thunderclap either through their own priority for the former or Psychic Terrain for the latter and threaten to KO it. Steel-types like Melmetal, Kingambit, and Mega Scizor help in this regard, as well as absorbing Fairy-type attacks from Pokemon like Mega Diancie and Iron Valiant; Kingambit can also threaten Galarian Slowking and Mega Latios, two Pokemon that Raging Bolt has trouble with. In return, Raging Bolt can chip down Toxapex, Moltres, and Zamazenta for Kingambit’s own sweep later in the game. Finally, Raging Bolt fits very well on weather-based teams. On sun teams, Raging Bolt's Protosynthesis is activated, allowing it to hit harder; it also synergizes well with Mega Charizard Y, as Mega Charizard Y can switch into the Ground-type moves that Raging Bolt baits out while also dealing with Ferrothorn. In return, Raging Bolt can deal with Toxapex, Moltres, and Dragonite, which would otherwise give Mega Charizard Y trouble. Rain, on the other hand, gives Raging Bolt a Weather Ball capable of demolishing the Ground-types that would otherwise give it much trouble. In return, Raging Bolt provides a check for Grass- and Electric-types like Rillaboom, Zapdos, and Ogerpon-W that would give rain teams trouble.

If you put great bulk, good typing able to e get in and threaten common Pokémon like Toxapex, Moltres, and Zapdos, a threatening Special Attack stat, and Calm Mind, and you got the ingredients for one of the most threatening wallbreaker and setup sweeper this tier has to offer. Ngl this is worded confusingly, talk about how bolt can leverage defensive typing + as you mentioned breaking through pex molt etc. Draco Meteor brings Raging Bolt exceptional power, allowing it to OHKO Ground types like Landorus-T, Garchomp, and Great Tusk trying to switch into it, the former with a Calm Mind boost. However, Dragon Pulse is a great option if you want consistent damage and don’t want to deal with a miss or a Special Attack reduction. Weather Ball is an amazing option when paired with Weather teams, at it gives an amazing coverage option in either a Fire- type move in sun to remove Grass- types like Ferrothorn and Mega Venusaur Rillaboom, mvenu gets thick fat + synthesis under sun or a Water type move in rain to remove Ground types like Ting-Lu and Iron Treads. Dragonium Z is used as a one-time nuke, as with a Calm Mind boost, most non-resists get obliterated by it prob want a few examples, opening up its teammates. Do note that Dragonium Z should only be used with Draco Meteor, as the damage reduction with Dragon Pulse is quite noticeable. Booster Energy boosts it’s Special Attack, allowing it to chip down it’s checks into range of it’s attacks, while Leftovers allows it to get out of range of common revenge-killing attempts from Weavile and Tapu Lele, allowing it to go for a sweep longer. filler ngl

Raging Bolt is best on more offensive teams thst appreciate a Pokémon that can easily wear down other Pokémon for its teammates that appreciate it wearing down other Pokemon for its teammates original was hard to follow, also pokemon doesnt have accent. It’s main weakness is Ground-types like Ting-Lu, Gliscor, Great Tusk, and Landorus-T, as they can come in on a Thunderbolt and threaten it out with a super-effective Earthquake. Pokemon like Urshifu-R, Ogerpon-W, and Hisuian Samurott can help remove these Pokémon for Raging Bolt, and in return, it can eliminate bulky waters like Toxapex, Alomomola, and Slowbro for them. Hisuian Samurott in particular, along with Ferrothorn and Heatran, can set up hazards for Raging Bolt in order to chip down Pokemon like Ferrothorn and Ting-Lu into range of it’s attacks quicker. Raging Bolt dosen’t have the best speed stat, and that can be abused by Pokémon like Weavile and Choice Scarf later examples bar mayb mciz get nuked by fight z Tapu Lele, who can bypass Raging Bolt’s own Thunderclap how? tapu lele psyterrain + weav ice shard and threaten to KO it, so Steel-types like Melmetal, Kingambit, and Mega Scizor help in this regard. These Pokémon also absorb Fairy- type attacks in general from Pokémon like Mega Diancie and Iron Valiant, while Kingambit can also threaten Galarian Slowking and Mega Latios, 2 Pokémon that Raging Bolt has trouble with, while also letting Raging Bolt chip down Toxapex, Moltres, and Zamazenta for it’s own sweep. this gets a bit confusing so put in own sentence about what bolt does for gambit + other steels Finally, Raging Bolt fits pretty well on sun teams, as it activates Protosynthesis, allowing it to hit harder with it’s attacks, while also synergizing well with Mega Charizard Y, as Mega Charizard Y can switch into the Ground-type moves that Raging Bolt lures in, while also dealing with Ferrothorn, while in return, Raging Bolt can deal with Toxapex, Moltres, and Dragonite that would otherwise give Mega Charizard Y trouble. give sentence about rain and what bolt does on it

what r these doing here
Raging Bolt’s amazing bulk, threatening Special Attack stat further boosted by Calm Mind you have wball slashed on cm so can specify that this isnt always true, and great typing both defensively and offensively allows it to become a threatening wallbreaker and sweeper, threatening common defensive pieces like Toxapex, Moltres, and Zapdos. also this sentence is kinda long Draco Meteor brings Raging Bolt exceptional power, allowing it to OHKO Ground types like Landorus-T, Garchomp, and Great Tusk trying to switch into it, the former with a Calm Mind boost. However, Dragon Pulse is a great option if you want consistent damage and don’t want to deal with a miss or a Special Attack reduction gives it more staying power also, but don't use that term explain it instead. Weather Ball is an amazing option when paired with Weather teams, at it gives an amazing coverage option in either a Fire- type move in sun to remove Grass- types like Ferrothorn and Rillaboom, or a Water type move in rain to remove this implies OHKO which isn't the case with lu, use a different word Ground types like Ting-Lu and Iron Treads. Dragonium Z is used as a one-time nuke, as with a Calm Mind boost, most non-resists get obliterated by it, such as Gliscor and Slowking-Galar opening up its teammates. Do note that Dragonium Z should only be used with Draco Meteor, as the damage reduction with Dragon Pulse is quite noticeable. Booster Energy boosts it’s Special Attack, allowing it to chip down it’s checks into range of it’s attacks <= this is misleading, more power just equals more damage, instead you can give examples of OHKOs that you get with this, while Leftovers allows it to get out of range of common revenge-killing attempts from Weavile and Tapu Lele also a little misleading, talk about how it can become a better offensive check to stuff like yard and non prough pon instead,

Raging Bolt is best on more offensive teams that appreciate it wearing down other Pokemon like what? for its teammates. It’s main weakness is Ground-types like Ting-Lu, Gliscor, Great Tusk, and Landorus-T, as they can come in on a Thunderbolt and threaten it out with a super-effective Earthquake. Pokemon like Urshifu-R, Ogerpon-W, and Hisuian Samurott can help remove these Pokémon for Raging Bolt, and in return, it can eliminate bulky waters like Toxapex, Alomomola, and Slowbro for them. Hisuian Samurott in particular, along with Ferrothorn and Heatran, can set up hazards for Raging Bolt in order to chip down Pokemon like Ferrothorn and Ting-Lu into range of it’s attacks quicker. Raging Bolt dosen’t have the best speed stat, and that can be abused use a different word, GP hates this by Pokémon like Weavile and Choice Scarf Tapu Lele, who can bypass Raging Bolt’s own Thunderclap either through their own priority for the former and Psychic Terrain for the latter, and threaten to KO it, so Steel-types like Melmetal, Kingambit, and Mega Scizor help in this regard. These Pokémon also absorb Fairy- type attacks in general from Pokémon like Mega Diancie and Iron Valiant, while Kingambit can also threaten Galarian Slowking and Mega Latios, 2 Pokémon that Raging Bolt has trouble with. In return, Raging Bolt can chip down Toxapex, Moltres, and Zamazenta for it’s own sweep later in the game. Finally, Raging Bolt fits pretty well on weather teams, as for sun, it activates Protosynthesis, allowing it to hit harder with it’s attacks, while also synergizing well with Mega Charizard Y, as Mega Charizard Y can switch into the Ground-type moves that Raging Bolt lures in, while also dealing with Ferrothorn, while in return, Raging Bolt can deal with Toxapex, Moltres, and Dragonite that would otherwise give Mega Charizard Y trouble. Rain, on the other hand, gives it a Water-type Weather Ball capable of demolishing the Ground-types that would give it so much trouble, as well as providing a check for Grass and Electric types like Rillaboom, Zapdos, and Ogerpon-W that would give Rain teams that would normally give it trouble. i talk about these lines outside the copyedit tag

good stuff but please brush up on the grammar a little, here are some stuff that you can take note of (in no particular order):
- abuse/abused is not a word we want onsite
- "it's" means "it is", it's different from "its"
- Grass- and Electric-types not Grass and Electric types
- dont use the accented é in Pokémon, just write Pokemon
- please dont make a sentence go on for so long, especially the last two sentences they take up five whole lines :skull:
funnily enough you manage well with other harder grammar standardisations so don't worry about it just remember to edit and take note of these.

Raging Bolt’s Bolt's straight apostrophes instead of curly ones, applies to all of these I changed amazing bulk, threatening Special Attack stat, and great typing both defensively and offensively allows allow it to become a threatening wallbreaker and sweeper, threatening common defensive pieces like Toxapex, Moltres, and Zapdos.

However, Dragon Pulse is a great option if you want consistent damage, threatening the opposition for longer. saying longer is a bit weird here unless dpulse over draco improves longevity, otherwise maybe say "more reliably" or remove "threatening the opposition for longer" Weather Ball is an amazing option when paired with weather teams, at as it gives an amazing coverage option in either a Fire- type move in sun to remove Grass- types Grass-types like Ferrothorn and Rillaboom (RC) or a Water type move in rain to threaten Ground types like Ting-Lu in sun or Ground-types like Ting Lu and Iron Treads in rain.
