[SET COMMENTS]
Choice Scarf Landorus-T functions as an excellent late-game cleaner and revenge killer, due to its ability to outspeed Pokemon such as Tapu Koko and Mega Diancie and threaten important defensive pieces such as Heatran, Gholdengo, and Kingambit with Earthquake. It can also leverage its excellent defensive typing and Intimidate to perform as a switch-in to Garchomp, Dragonite, and opposing Landorus-T. Stone Edge hits Flying-types such as Zapdos, Mega Charizard Y, and Moltres, OHKOing the latter two. Defog allows Landorus-T to capitalize on forced switches by removing entry hazards, while Explosion allows it to deal large damage to Pokemon such as Ogerpon-W and Rotom-W and gain momentum when at low HP. 8 HP EVs allow Landorus-T to switch in on Stealth Rock one extra time.

Landorus-T largely fits on bulky offense teams, where its high Speed and ability to threaten common defensive pieces such as Gholdengo and Kingambit are appreciated. However, Landorus-T struggles to break Flying-types such as opposing Landorus-T, Gliscor, and Zapdos. This means teammates that can break these such as Kyurem and Weavile are appreciated; in return, Landorus-T breaks Steel-types such as Kingambit and Melmetal for them and can bring them in safely via U-turn. Landorus-T also finds it difficult to break through common defensive pieces such as Ferrothorn and Ting-Lu, meaning Fighting-types that beat them such as Zamazenta, Urshifu-R, and Mega Lopunny are all appreciated. In return, Landorus-T breaks through Toxapex and revenge kills Tapu Koko and Mega Diancie for them. Landorus-T finds itself vulnerable to Water-types such as Choice Scarf Urshifu-R, as well as rain sweepers such as Mega Swampert and Barraskewda. This means switch-ins such as Mega Latios and Ferrothorn are enjoyed, with Landorus-T breaking Steel-types and Mega Tyranitar for the former. Landorus-T also struggles with strong priority from Pokemon such as Weavile, meaning teammates such as Tapu Lele are appreciated, with Landorus-T breaking Steel- and Poison-types for it and allowing it to use Moonblast more freely.

Choice Scarf Landorus-T functions as an excellent late game cleaner and revenge killer due to its high speed and ability to outspeed Pokemon such as Tapu Koko and Mega Diancie, while throwing off strong Earthquakes, threatening important defensive pieces such as Heatran, Gholdengo and Kingambit. It can also leverage its excellent defensive typing and access to intimidate to perform as a switch-in to Garchomp, Dragonite and opposing Landorus-T. With Choice Scarf Landorus-T becomes one of the fastest Pokemon in the tier, being able to outspeed and threaten common Pokemon such as Tapu Koko and unboosted Dragapult talking about what scarf does should be at the start of the paragraph; replaced pult with diancie cuz pult doesnt die to eq Stone Edge is used to hit Flying-types such as Zapdos, Mega Charizard Y and Moltres, being able to OHKO the latter two. Defog is an option allowing Landorus-T to capitalize on forced switches by removing entry hazards, while Explosion allows Landorus-T to deal large damage should mention mons like wogerpon and gain momentum when at low HP. 8 HP EVs allow Landorus-T to switch in on Stealth Rock one extra time.

Choice Scarf Landorus-T functions as an excellent late-game add hyphen cleaner and revenge killer, (ac) due to its ability to outspeed Pokemon such as Tapu Koko and Mega Diancie (rc) and threaten important defensive pieces such as Heatran, Gholdengo, and Kingambit with Earthquake. while throwing off strong Earthquakes, threatening important defensive pieces such as Heatran, Gholdengo and Kingambit. It can also leverage its excellent defensive typing and Intimidate access to intimidate to perform as a switch-in to Garchomp, Dragonite, (ac) and opposing Landorus-T. Stone Edge hits is used to hit this is really lateral but i would suggest cutting down on stuff like "access to" and "___ is used to"; just get to the point Flying-types such as Zapdos, Mega Charizard Y, (ac) and Moltres, OHKOing being able to OHKO the latter two. Defog allows is an option allowing since it's the first slash, i would emphasize explosion being the secondary option Landorus-T to capitalize on forced switches by removing entry hazards, while Explosion allows it Landorus-T to deal large damage to Pokemon such as Ogerpon-W and Rotom-W and gain momentum when at low HP. 8 HP EVs allow Landorus-T to switch in on Stealth Rock one extra time.
