[SET COMMENTS]
Silvally-Rock finds a solid niche in PU as a Swords Dance sweeper, obtaining setup opportunities against common foes such as Mr. Rime and Unfezant. Swords Dance bolsters Silvally-Rock's attacking prowess, letting it break through slower foes such as Appletun and Dusknoir. U-turn provides valuable utility and allows Silvally-Rock to pivot away from checks such as Sandslash and Throh. Alternatively, Flame Charge turns Silvally-Rock into a better late-game cleaner, boosting its Speed stat, letting it hit Klinklang, and enabling it to outspeed offensive checks such as Galarian Rapidash and Alolan Dugtrio and Choice Scarf users such as Drednaw and Golduck. Ice Beam serves as coverage for Ground-types such as Stunfisk and Sandslash. Psychic Fangs is a notable mention that allows Silvally-Rock to better break through Fighting-types like Throh and Falinks.

Swords Dance Silvally-Rock is often found on offensive builds that appreciate its ability to fire off strong Multi-Attacks, keep offensive momentum with U-turn, and potentially clean late-game. If running Flame Charge over U-turn, Silvally-Rock should be preserved until late-game when its checks have been weakened or removed and it can set up and sweep. Partners such as Unfezant and Morpeko weaken physical walls such as Stunfisk and Sandslash, helping facilitate a late-game sweep. Pairing Silvally-Rock with special wallbreakers such as Appletun, Nasty Plot Gourgeist, and Mr. Rime can be beneficial, as they can take advantage of the aforementioned physical walls and defensive Throh; Eject Pack Appletun can also provide more setup opportunities by bringing Silvally-Rock in on special walls such as Type: Null and Lickilicky. Stunfisk and Sandslash also make for good partners, providing checks to Steel-types such as Klinklang and Mawile and setting up entry hazards. Checks to Fighting-types such as Galarian Rapidash, Mr. Rime, and Unfezant are also appreciated, with the former two also providing Healing Wish support.

Silvally-Rock finds a slight niche in PU as an offensive Defog user, thanks to its strong Multi-Attack that gives it good matchups against common foes such as Mr. Rime, Unfezant, and Drifblim. Ice Beam targets Ground-types such as Stunfisk and Sandslash, while Flamethrower punishes switch-ins from Steel-types such as Klinklang and Mawile, letting Silvally-Rock utilize Defog against Mawile. U-turn establishes offensive momentum, allowing Silvally-Rock to pivot away from and accrue residual damage on checks such as Sandslash and Throh.

This Silvally-Rock set fits on balance and bulky offense builds that appreciate its offensive capabilities and good utility in Defog and U-turn. Grass-types such as Appletun, Gourgeist, and Lilligant appreciate Silvally-Rock checking Fire- and Ice-types such as Flareon and Mr. Rime, as well as Flying-types like Unfezant and Drifblim. In return, they can threaten Water- and Ground-types such as Golduck, Stunfisk, and Sandslash. Lilligant is a notable partner, able to capitalize on switches that Silvally-Rock forces to set up with Quiver Dance or heal up Silvally-Rock with Healing Wish, depending on its set. Setup sweepers such as Swords Dance Galarian Rapidash and Calm Mind Musharna benefit from Silvally-Rock clearing entry hazards and improving their longevity; in return, they can remove Fighting-types such as Throh and Falinks that trouble Silvally-Rock. Wallbreakers such as Mr. Rime and Beheeyem appreciate Silvally-Rock luring in physical walls such as Stunfisk and Sandslash to wreak havoc. Pokemon such as Klinklang and Drifblim can also lure in the aformentioned physical walls and cripple them with Toxic, allowing Silvally-Rock to potentially get off a Defog against them.

Flamethrower serves as coverage for Steel-types such as Klinklang and Mawile.
I really think psychic fangs deserves a small quick mention here, nothing on the set just a brief "this is how you hit a few notable mons" type deal

Swords Dance Silvally-Rock is best utilized late-game when its checks have been weakened or removed flame charge yes, u-turn no. this distinction is kinda important. Pairing Silvally-Rock with special wallbreakers such as Appletun, Nasty Plot Gourgeist, and Mr. Rime can be beneficial as they can take advantage of physical walls like Stunfisk, Sandslash, and defensive Throh. The aforementioned physical walls also make for a good partners, providing checks to Steel-types such as Klinklang and Mawile, with Stunfisk and Sandslash also providing entry hazard support. Checks to Fighting-types such as Galarian Rapidash, Mr. Rime, and Unfezant are also appreciated.

Defog Silvally-Rock finds a slight niche in PU, posing good match-ups against other Defog users such as Drifblim and Unfezant why does this matter? defoggers want a good matchup vs rockers, which this does not have. the benefit is it's offensive and has fairly unique typing, that's what should be going here. Flamethrower punishes switch-ins from Steel-types such as Klinklang and Mawile, letting Silvally-Rock utilize Defog against Mawile. U-turn establishes offensive momentum, allowing Silvally-Rock to pivot away from and accrue residual damage on checks such as Sandslash and Throh.

Defog Silvally-Rock fits on offensive teams that appreciate its ability to keep up entry hazards by pressuring Defog users such as Drifblim and Unfezant ???? I'm not sure where you got this idea but it's not how the mon functions in theory or in practice. we can talk more but it should be fairly clear that the point of your defogger is not to stop a defog from happening. it's good at pressuring flying-types but that's not necessarily something to do with keeping hazards up. Grass-types such as Appletun, Gourgeist, and Lilligant appreciate Silvally-Rock checking Fire- and Ice-types such as Flareon and Mr. Rime, as well as the aforementioned Flying-types. In return, they can threaten Water- and Ground-types such as Golduck, Stunfisk, and Sandslash. Set-up sweepers such as Swords Dance Galarian Rapidash and Calm Mind Musharna benefit from Silvally-Rock clearing entry hazards, improving their longevity; in turn, they can remove Fighting-types such as Throh and Falinks that trouble Silvally-Rock. Entry hazard setters such as Sandslash, Crustle, and Roselia value Silvally-Rock deterring Defog from Drifblim and Unfezant to successfully get up their hazards.

1/2 but the offensive defog section definitely needs to be fixed and I'm going to check in

 

[DC]

MZ could you take a look again to make sure that the offensive Defog set has been fixed?

 

[MZ]

Yeah it seems fine. I think it could be redirected slightly to more get the point across that this is more "offensive thing I run when I happen to need to fit a defogger" rather than the emphasis being on its typing, which is more of a hindrance. You can still call this 1/2 though.

Silvally-Rock finds a solid niche in PU as a Swords Dance sweeper, threatening common Pokemon such as Mr. Rime, Drifblim, and Unfezant. (maybe reword this by saying it finds many setup opportunities against x and y) Swords Dance bolsters Silvally-Rock's attacking prowess, letting it break through slower foes such as Appletun and Dusknoir. U-turn provides valuable utility and allows Silvally-Rock to pivot away from checks such as Sandslash and Throh. Alternatively, Flame Charge turns Silvally-Rock into a better late-game cleaner, boosting its Speed stat and enabling it to outspeed offensive checks such as Galarian Rapidash and Alolan Dugtrio. (and scarfers such as drednaw and golduck) Flamethrower serves as coverage for Steel-types such as Klinklang and Mawile. (i dont like flame charge + flamethrower on the same set. +2 flame charge also does more to klink, while mawile rlly isnt common enough. on most teams, u'd rather hit klink + slash and fisk than just hitting klink + mawile. replace this slash with ice beam) Psychic Fangs is a notable mention that allows Silvally-Rock to better break through Fighting-types like Throh and Falinks.

Swords Dance Silvally-Rock is often found on offensive builds that appreciate its ability to throw off strong Multi-Attacks and keep offensive momentum with U-turn. (as well as potentially clean late-game) If running Flame Charge over U-turn, Silvally-Rock should be preserved until late-game when its checks have been weakened or removed and it can set up and sweep. (mention mons like unfezant and peko as partners here; they can weaken physical walls for rockvally) Pairing Silvally-Rock with special wallbreakers such as Appletun, Nasty Plot Gourgeist, and Mr. Rime can be beneficial as they can take advantage of physical walls like Stunfisk, Sandslash, and defensive Throh. (mention how apple can also bring in rockvally on spdef walls with eject pack draco) The aforementioned physical walls also make for a good partners, providing checks to Steel-types such as Klinklang and Mawile, with Stunfisk and Sandslash also providing entry hazard support. Checks to Fighting-types such as Galarian Rapidash, Mr. Rime, and Unfezant are also appreciated. (the former two can also hwish rockvally)

(mention that, depending on its set, lilli can either get a free setup opportunity or support rockvally with hwish) Set-up sweepers such as Swords Dance Galarian Rapidash and Calm Mind Musharna benefit from Silvally-Rock clearing entry hazards, improving their longevity; in turn, they can remove Fighting-types such as Throh and Falinks that trouble Silvally-Rock. Entry hazard setters such as Sandslash, Crustle, and Roselia value Silvally-Rock deterring Defog from Flying-types to successfully get up and keep their hazards. (crustle is a p bad example, and regardless they can still defog on the turn u switch out. and also like rockvally is a defogger itself)

mention wallbreakers
mention mons like klink that can toxic stuff like fisk, making rockvally's job easier
