Zoroark: I'm not sure if it's indeed as good as Sharpedo, Salazzle, Nidoqueen, and Registeel, but with an ok Speed Tier, Illusion being so great and access to so many viable moves and sets (SD, NP, Specs, Scarf, Utility), it's very versatile and hard to predict. It can be annoying for any team, even if you know its Zoroark, you never know what you're playing against, not to mention how Zoroark can help things by weakening its checks, when Zoroark can do things like: a "Salazzle" beating Gigalith with a +2 Focus Blast and help the real Salazzle, I think Zoroark should stay S.
Tyrantrum: About Tyrantrum, I don't think its very fair to compare it with Zydog, there's much more than the Dragon typing, Tyrantrum is so powerful, with the right Choice Band can 2HKO the entire meta, which Zydog fails to do, unlike the Dog its kinda slow but if played well can be really annoying, its meant to be more of a Wallbreaker than a Cleaner, and the Defense is so high, giving you a shaky check to Physical Sharpedo, not to mention how Scarf Tyrantrum is an ok offensive check to Salazzle and a great revenge killer in general for teams able to cover well faster sweepers such as DD Flygon and DD Feraligatr, it also has access to sets like Rock Polish, I think it has its flaws but that's why its B+, I don't think it should go anywhere, it's fine as B+ imo.
Bronzong: Bronzong is an ok check to Abomasnow-Mega and Nidoqueen, while its still a Flygon check, which are good niches over Regi, but with some of our best mons being: Zydog, Shark, Salazzle, Zoroark, and a lot of mons able to beat it, I don't think Levitate and being neutral to Fighting is enough to justify a rise and that's why I think it should stay where it's at.
I agree with Xatu rise. Xatu is good against the best Spiker and the 2nd best Rocker, kind of matchup reliant and bad against Queen, Glalie, Roserade and Froslass, but still enough for C+ since its good against most non Froslass Spikes stacking teams. I also agree with Kommo-o to A, thanks to Florges and Comfey being far worse now, access to a powerful Specs set, a nice Work Up + Z-Move set that is so annoying for stall to play against and even options like Autotomize I think Kommo-o just became better after the shift and deserves a rise.
About Snorlax and Sigilyph (I've never faced or used the latter one) I don't feel I'm able to judge so I'm not commenting about them.
