A nearly unresisted STAB combination and access to priority Ice Shard make Mamoswine one of the tier's most menacing wallbreakers. Its decent Speed tier allows it to force out threats such as Tyranitar and Toxtricity, while Ice Shard lets it revenge kill threats such as Noivern, Roserade, and Rotom-C. However, Mamoswine is susceptible to being revenge killed by common threats that aren't weak to Ice Shard such as Keldeo, Jirachi, and Mienshao. Knock Off allows Mamoswine to punish Pokemon that resist its STAB moves such as Golisopod, Rotom-W, and Bronzong. Stealth Rock is another option for teams without another Stealth Rock setter, as Mamoswine's STAB attacks already cover most of the tier; however, it would usually prefer attacking over setting Stealth Rock and it also loses out on the ability to punish Rotom-W. Oblivious is an option over Thick Fat to prevent Incineroar and Krookodile from lowering Mamoswine's Attack via Intimidate, however Thick Fat Mamoswine is able to handle Ice-type hits from Kyurem easier, as well as beating offensive Galarian Weezing easier. A Jolly nature can be used to outspeed Jolly Bisharp and Timid Toxtricity, but the difference in power is noticeable compared to Adamant— most noticeably, it fails to reliably 2HKO Slowking and Gastrodon.

Skarmory is a major annoyance for Mamoswine, as it can take repeated Icicle Crash hits and heal with Roost while also not minding Knock Off. Electric-types such as Heliolisk, Rotom-C, and Rotom-W can deal with Skarmory while also bringing Mamoswine in for free against Pokemon such as Tyranitar, opposing Rotom-C, and Roserade. The former two can also take advantage of opposing Rotom-W. Roserade and Celebi can punish Rotom-W for Mamoswine, while the former can also set Spikes to help Mamoswine break down teams. Other pivots such as Slowking, Noivern, and Mienshao can bring in Mamoswine safely on Pokemon that it threatens out such as Incineroar, Rhyperior, and Palossand. Noivern in particular is an excellent partner for its ability to bring in Mamoswine against Tyranitar and Rhyperior while also forcing Skarmory out and checking Fighting-types such as Mienshao and Keldeo. Incineroar can bring in Mamoswine on Pokemon like Tyranitar and Rhyperior with Parting Shot and check Jirachi, Celebi, and Skarmory. Choice Scarf Jirachi can check faster threats that Mamoswine cannot threaten out with Ice Shard, such as Terrakion and Keldeo, and give Mamoswine a second chance at wallbreaking with Healing Wish. Mixed variants of Jirachi can lure in and remove Skarmory and Rotom-W with Thunder and Energy Ball, respectively. Assault Vest Reuniclus, Choice Specs Keldeo, and Necrozma can all threaten defensive Galarian Weezing, which Mamoswine struggles with. Necrozma and Assault Vest Reuniclus can also switch into Galarian Weezing reliably, making it easier to handle.

A nearly unresisted STAB combination and access to priority Ice Shard makes Mamoswine one of the tier's most menacing wallbreakers. overselling it a little bit but sure Its decent speed tier allows it to force out threats such as Tyranitar and Palossand Toxtricity its speed tier isn't what allows it to force out palossand considering the castle is one of the slowest mons in the tier, while Ice Shard allows it to revenge kill threats such as Noivern, Roserade and Rotom-C. However, Mamoswine is susceptible to being revenge killed by common threats that aren't weak to Ice Shard such as Keldeo, Jirachi, and Mienshao. Knock Off allows Mamoswine to punish Pokemon that would otherwise resist its STABs such as Golisopod, Rotom-W, and Bronzong. Stealth Rock is another option for teams without another rocker Stealth Rock setter, as Mamoswine's STABs already cover most of the tier, however it would usually prefer attacking over setting Stealth Rock and it also loses out on the ability to punish Rotom-W. Something about Thick Fat allowing it to handle hits from Kyurem a little easier as opposed to Oblivious meaning Krookodile and Incineroar can't Intimidate shuffle Mamoswine would be nice here. Also, mention the benefits to an Adamant nature over Jolly.

Skarmory is a major annoyance for Mamoswine, as it can take Icicle Crash with ease not really with ease, just say it can handle repeated icicle crashes and heal off the damage and doesn't mind Knock Off. Electric-types such as Heliolisk, Rotom-C, and Rotom-W can deal with Skarmory while also bringing Mamoswine in for free on Pokemon like Tyranitar, Roserade, and opposing Rotom-C. Other pivots such as Slowking, Noivern, and Mamoswine ??? :D ??? i'm gonna assume you meant Mienshao can bring in Mamoswine safely on Pokemon that it threatens out, such as Incineroar, Rhyperior, and Palossand. Noivern in particular is an excellent partner for its ability to bring in Mamoswine against Tyranitar and Rhyperior, while also forcing Skarmory out and checking Fighting-types such as Mienshao and Keldeo. Incineroar can check Jirachi and Celebi, bring in Mamoswine on Pokemon like Tyranitar and Rhyperior with Parting Shot, and check Skarmory. Choice Scarf Jirachi can beat Skarmory if running Thunder, check faster threats that Mamoswine cannot threaten out with Ice Shard such as Terrakion and Keldeo, and give Mamoswine a second chance at breaking with Healing Wish. Calm Mind Jirachi can also beat bulky Water-types that Mamoswine struggles with. mamo doesn't struggle with any of the waters in the tier rly, they're all smashed by eq except rotom-w

add some partners that take advantage of rotom-w, you can tie this in with the heliolisk/rotom-c mention if you want
also add some things that threaten galarian weezing, av reuni/necrozma/whatever you feel, try to keep jirachi mentions to a minimum if possible just bc of suspect

Electric-types such as Heliolisk, Rotom-C, and Rotom-W can deal with Skarmory while also bringing Mamoswine in for free against Pokemon such as Tyranitar, opposing Rotom-C, and Roserade respectively. The latter former two can also take advantage of opposing Rotom-W. include some more mons that punish rotom here like rose or celebi whatever bc its rly common and a major thorn in mamo's side Other pivots such as Slowking, Noivern, and Mienshao can bring in Mamoswine safely on Pokemon that it threatens out such as Incineroar, Rhyperior, and Palossand. Noivern in particular is an excellent partner for its ability to bring in Mamoswine against Tyranitar and Rhyperior, while also forcing Skarmory out and checking Fighting-types such as Mienshao and Keldeo.

Reuniclus and Necrozma can even switch into Galarian Weezing, making it much easier to handle.

Oblivious is an option over Thick Fat to prevent Incineroar and Krookodile from lowering Mamoswine's attack via Intimidate, however Thick Fat Mamoswine is able to handle Ice-type hits from Kyurem easier. I'd also mention it helps it beat offensive Galarian Weezing 1on1, excluding hax, due to it avoiding getting blown back by Fire Blast and 2HKOing with Icicle Crash. A Jolly nature can be used to outspeed Jolly Bisharp and Timid Toxtricity, however the difference in power is noticeable compared to Adamant - most noticeably, it fails to reliably 2HKO Slowking and Gastrodon.

Choice Scarf Jirachi can beat Skarmory if running Thunder, check faster threats that Mamoswine cannot threaten out with Ice Shard such as Terrakion and Keldeo, and give Mamoswine a second chance at breaking with Healing Wish. I would remove the start of this about Thunder and just add another line saying that mixed variants of Jirachi can lure and remove Skarmory and Rotom-W with Thunder and Energy Ball respectively. Assault Vest Reuniclus, Choice Specs Keldeo, and Necrozma can all threaten defensive Galarian Weezing, which Mamoswine struggles with. Necrozma and Assault Vest Reuniclus can also switch into Galarian Weezing reliably, making it easier to handle.

A nearly unresisted STAB combination and access to priority via Ice Shard make Mamoswine one of the tier's most menacing wallbreakers. Its decent Speed tier allows it to force out threats such as Tyranitar and Toxtricity(RC), while and Ice Shard allows it to lets it (repeat phrasing becomes more awkward with comma removal) revenge kill threats such as Noivern, Roserade(AC), and Rotom-C. However, Mamoswine is susceptible to being revenge killed by common threats that aren't weak to Ice Shard(AC), (for this sentence and not the later because of the greater elaboration of "common threats that aren't weak to Ice Shard) such as Keldeo, Jirachi, and Mienshao. Knock Off allows Mamoswine to punish Pokemon that resist its STAB moves such as Golisopod, Rotom-W, and Bronzong. Stealth Rock is another option for teams without another Stealth Rock setter, as Mamoswine's STAB moves already cover most of the tier, however it would usually prefer but Mamoswine usually prefers (ambiguous structure+tense consistency) attacking to setting Stealth Rock(AC), and it also loses out running the move also makes Mamoswine lose out (ambiguous structure) on the its (subjective/optional) ability to punish Rotom-W. Oblivious is an option over Thick Fat to prevent Incineroar and Krookodile from lowering Mamoswine's Attack via Intimidate, however but Thick Fat Mamoswine is able to better handle Ice-type hits from Kyurem easier, as well as beating and more easily beat offensive Galarian Weezing easier. A Jolly nature can be used to outspeed Jolly Bisharp and Timid Toxtricity, however but the difference in power is noticeable compared to running Adamant—most (make sure to not add a space before or after "—") noticeably, it Jolly Mamoswine fails to reliably 2HKO Slowking and Gastrodon.

Skarmory is a major annoyance for Mamoswine, as it can take repeated Icicle Crash hits and heal with Roost(RC), while also not minding Knock Off. Electric-types such as Heliolisk, Rotom-C, and Rotom-W can deal with Skarmory while also bringing safely pivoting (specificity re: volt switch) Mamoswine in for free against Pokemon into Pokemon such as Tyranitar, opposing Rotom-C, and Roserade. The former two can also take advantage of opposing Rotom-W. Roserade and Celebi can punish Rotom-W for Mamoswine, while with (fix that prevents awkward long clauses joined by and) the former can also set also able to set Spikes to help Mamoswine it break through teams. Other pivots such as Slowking, Noivern, Noivern, Slowking, (Noivern got lost in the middle on my first read-through, and I was confused how sharply you soon transition to it) and Mienshao can bring in Mamoswine safely on safely switch Mamoswine into (awkwardness) Pokemon that it threatens out such as Incineroar, Rhyperior, and Palossand. Noivern in particular is an excellent partner for its ability to bring in Mamoswine against Tyranitar and Rhyperior, while also forcing and it also forces (justifying comma) Skarmory out and while checking Fighting-types such as Mienshao and Keldeo. Incineroar can check Jirachi and Celebi(RC), bring in Mamoswine on Mamoswine in on Pokemon like Tyranitar and Rhyperior with Parting Shot(RC), and check Skarmory. Jirachi, Celebi, and Skarmory. Choice Scarf Jirachi can check faster threats that Mamoswine cannot threaten out with Ice Shard(AC), such as Terrakion and Keldeo(AC), and give Mamoswine a second chance at breaking with Healing Wish. Mixed variants of Jirachi can lure in and remove Skarmory and Rotom-W with via (structural ambiguity) Thunder and Energy Ball(AC), respectively. Assault Vest Reuniclus, Choice Specs Keldeo, and Necrozma can all threaten defensive Galarian Weezing, which Mamoswine struggles with. Necrozma and Assault Vest Reuniclus Assault Vest Reuniclus and Necrozma (preserving adjacent order) can also actively and reliably (establishing contrast with previous sentence) switch into Galarian Weezing reliably, further (more contrast. note that comma is not removed) making it easier to handle. manageable.

A nearly unresisted STAB combination and access to priority Ice Shard makes make Mamoswine one of the tier's most menacing wallbreakers. Its decent Speed (Capitalize) tier allows it to force out threats such as Tyranitar and Toxtricity, while Ice Shard allows lets (Redundancy) it to revenge kill threats such as Noivern, Roserade, (AC) and Rotom-C. However, Mamoswine is susceptible to being revenge killed by common threats that aren't weak to Ice Shard such as Keldeo, Jirachi, and Mienshao. Knock Off allows Mamoswine to punish Pokemon that resist its STABs STAB moves such as Golisopod, Rotom-W, and Bronzong. Stealth Rock is another option for teams without another Stealth Rock setter, as Mamoswine's STABs STAB attacks already cover most of the tier; (SC) however, (AC) it would usually prefer attacking over setting Stealth Rock and it also loses out on the ability to punish Rotom-W. Oblivious is an option over Thick Fat to prevent Incineroar and Krookodile from lowering Mamoswine's Attack (Capitalize) via Intimidate, however though Thick Fat Mamoswine is able to handle Ice-type hits attacks from Kyurem easier, as well as beating and beat offensive Galarian Weezing easier more easily. A Jolly nature can be used to outspeed Jolly Bisharp and Timid Toxtricity, however but the difference in power is noticeable compared to Adamant—most noticeably, it fails to reliably 2HKO Slowking and Gastrodon.

Skarmory is a major annoyance for Mamoswine, as it can take repeated Icicle Crash hits and heal with Roost, (RC) while also not minding Knock Off. Electric-types such as Heliolisk, Rotom-C, and Rotom-W can deal with Skarmory while also bringing Mamoswine in for free against Pokemon such as Tyranitar, opposing Rotom-C, and Roserade.

Incineroar can check Jirachi and Celebi, bring in Mamoswine on Pokemon like Tyranitar and Rhyperior with Parting Shot, (RC) and check Jirachi, Celebi, and Skarmory. Choice Scarf Jirachi can check faster threats that Mamoswine cannot threaten out with Ice Shard, (AC) such as Terrakion and Keldeo, (AC) and give Mamoswine a second chance at wallbreaking with Healing Wish.
