[SET COMMENTS]

Acting as a top-tier entry hazard remover with its unique ability and vast movepool, Terapagos is a solid addition to many teams that appreciate its perks. Ice Beam can be used in order to OHKO Landorus-T, Gliscor, and Garchomp, as well as significantly damaging Raging Bolt. Calm Mind allows Terapagos to become very threatening and hard to take down, 2HKOing Moltres, Mega Charizard Y, and Toxapex with Tera Starstorm after a boost. The Special Defense raise allows Terapagos to use its bulk to challenge foes such as Tapu Lele and Gholdengo that can otherwise OHKO Terapagos lacking Tera Shell by using Fightinium Z. Flamethrower smacks Air Balloon Gholdengo as well as hit Ferrothorn and Mega Scizor for crippling damage. Earth Power allows Terapagos to nail Heatran and Glimmora while also hitting Mega Tyranitar for chip damage. Rapid Spin lets Terapagos assist its team with hazard removal while boosting Speed to allow it to threaten faster Pokemon like Tapu Koko, Mega Lopunny, and Zamazenta, setting it up for a potential sweep when used in conjunction with Calm Mind. Heavy-Duty Boots is vital in allowing Terapagos to keep its ability in the face of hazards, which can be useful for guaranteeing a Rapid Spin or stopping a potential sweep, such as from Dragonite, if packing Ice Beam.

Terapagos fits on bulky offense and balance teams that appreciate its reliability in entry hazard removal, benefitting Pokemon such as Mega Charizard Y and Volcarona lacking Heavy-Duty Boots. Terapagos's Normal typing allows for it to switch into Ghost-type moves, which is vital in being a stopgap against Pokemon such as Gholdengo. Due toTerapagos's below average Speed and reliance on its ability, a defensive backbone is much appreciated with Pokemon such as Gholdengo and Zapdos, which can cover for Terapagos's Fighting weakness. Alomomola is a great teammate that can provide Wish passing, which is extremely valuable, as it allows Terapagos to regain Tera Shell if it has lost health beforehand.

Acting as a top tier hazard remover, with its unique ability and vast movepool, Terapagos is a solid addition to many balance teams that appreciate its perks. Rapid Spin assists its team with hazard removal, spinning away pesky Spikes and Stealth Rocks that would otherwise be detrimental to the team. It also boosts speed, to allow Terapagos to threaten faster Pokemon with its myriad of coverage moves, and setting Terapagos up for a potential sweep in conjunction with Calm Mind you can also sweep with just 4a, speed boost is nice to oustpeed pult zama koko and smack them. Ice Beam can be used in order to punish any pesky OHKO Landorus-T. Gliscors and specially defensive Garchomps that would otherwise tank a Starstorm on the switch-in, as well as shake Terapago’s slight passivity against significantly damaging Dragapult. Calm Mind over Ice Beam allows Terapagos to become very threatening and hard to take down, as the increase in SpDef and SpAtk allows Terapagos to trade with or take out many threats, 2HKOing Moltres, Charizard-Mega-Y, and Toxapex after a boost, and making Terapagos much harder to switch in and out of this last line is unnecesary, give a few examples of hits it takes after a boost. Earth Power allows Terapagos to nail Heatran and Glimmora, dealing massive damage to both also hits ghold and ttar for less dmg. Flamethrower over Earth Power lets Terapagos to hit Gholdengos holding Air Balloon, as well as hitting Ferrothorn and Scizor-Mega for crippling damage. Heavy Duty Boots is vital in allowing Terapagos to keep its ability in the face of hazards, which can be useful to stop potential sweeps add examples.

Terapagos fits on bulky offense and balance teams that appreciate its reliability in hazard removal, benefitting Pokemon such as Dragonite not rlly a good example, all non ho dnites are boots, add a couple diff examples lacking Heavy Duty Boots. can also fit on hos that stack rocks weak pokemon, give examples of these. You should also mention its ghost immunity Due to Terapago’s below average speed and reliance on ability, a defensive backbone is much appreciated, with pokemon such as Gholdengo or Zapdos which can cover for Terapagos Fighting weakness. Alomomola is a great teammate, as it can allow for wish-passing, which is extremely valuable, as it allows Terapagos to regain its "stellar" ability, if it lost health beforehand.

Acting as a top tier hazard remover, with its unique ability and vast movepool, Terapagos is a solid addition to many teams that appreciate its perks. Rapid Spin assists its team with hazard removal while boosting, spinning away pesky Spikes and Stealth Rocks that would otherwise be detrimental to the team. It also boosts fluff speed, to allow Terapagos to threaten faster Pokemon like Tapu Koko, Zamazenta, and Dragapult with its myriad of coverage moves, and setting Terapagos up for a potential sweep in conjunction with Calm Mind or by simply using its excelent coverage these are both fluff sentences + its coverage is significantly hampered if it runs CM. Ice Beam can be used in order to OHKO Landorus-T, Gliscor, and Garchomp that would otherwise tank a Starstorm on the switch-in, as well as significantly damaging Dragapult and Raging Bolt. Calm Mind over Ice Beam allows Terapagos to become very threatening and hard to take down, as the increase in SpDef and SpAtk allows Terapagos to trade with or take out many threats, 2HKOing making it able to 2HKO fluff Moltres, Charizard-Mega-Y, and Toxapex with what move? after a boost, while the SpDef raise allows Terapagos to use its bulk to challenge foes such as Tapu Lele and Gholdengo, who can otherwise OHKO a Terapagos lacking Tera Shell with Fightinium-Z. Earth Power allows Terapagos to nail Heatran and Glimmora, dealing massive damage to both, while also hitting Mega Tyranitar for chip damage. Flamethrower over Earth Power lets Terapagos to smack Gholdengos holding Air Balloon, as well as hitting Ferrothorn and Scizor-Mega for crippling damage. Heavy Duty Boots is vital in allowing Terapagos to keep its ability in the face of hazards, which can be useful to stop potential sweeps, such as from Dragapult or Dragonite, if packing Ice Beam that's not really what Tera Shell is useful for - you want it to make Spinning far easier.

change this to match the set order - put it in this order:
Tera Starstorm sentence
Ice Beam / CM sentence
Flamethrower / EP sentence
Spin sentence
there is also a lot of fluff in this analysis

Terapagos fits on bulky offense and balance teams that appreciate its reliability in hazard removal, benefitting Pokemon such as Mega Charizard Y and Volcarona sets lacking Heavy Duty Boots. Terapago’s Normal typing allows for it to switch into Ghost type moves, which is vital in being a stop gap to Pokemon such as Dragapult and Gholdengo. Terapagos is also a powerful partner to Pokemon that are susceptible to rocks, such as Iron Moth, Mega Charizard X, and Ogerpon-C that feature on hyper offensive teams. this is repeated in line 1 Due to Terapago’s below average speed and reliance on ability, a defensive backbone is much appreciated, with pokemon such as Gholdengo or Zapdos which can cover for Terapagos Fighting weakness. Alomomola is a great teammate, as it can allow for wish-passing, which is extremely valuable, as it allows Terapagos to regain its "stellar" ability, if it lost health beforehand.
