[SET COMMENTS]
Nihilego serves as an incredible Choice Scarf user for Poison teams thanks to its vast movepool and strong Special Attack. Power Gem deals with Flying- and Fire-types such as Tornadus-T, Mega Charizard Y, and Volcarona. Grass Knot targets Ground-types attempting to take on Nihilego's Power Gem such as Hippowdon, Swampert, and Mamoswine. Alternatively, Dazzling Gleam deals with Dragon- and Dark-types like Kommo-o, Hydreigon, and Mega Sableye. Thunderbolt threatens Water-types like Toxapex, Urshifu-R, and Keldeo. Hidden Power Ice removes the Landorus formes for Poison teams along with dealing significant damage to Garchomp and Dragonite. However, Sludge Wave threatens Fairy- and Grass-types like Tapu Lele, Tapu Bulu, and Ogerpon-C. Nidoking serves as an excellent special attacking complement, being able to remove Steel-types that wall Nihilego such as non-Air Balloon Heatran, Ferrothorn, and Gholdengo. Sneasler can help to break through problematic special walls such as Blissey and Hisuian Goodra thanks to its powerful Close Combat, and in return, it appreciates Nihilego beating physical walls like Toxapex and Great Tusk. Mega Venusaur helps to deal with Water- and Ground-types that Nihilego cannot handle such as Barraskewda, Mega Swampert, and Iron Treads. Crobat possesses a necessary Ground immunity and is able to come in on the likes of Clodsire and Excadrill along with being able to check Mega Gallade for Nihilego with its powerful Brave Bird. Alolan Muk can use Pursuit to trap and eliminate problematic Psychic- and Ghost-type threats for Nihilego like Deoxys-S, Tapu Lele, and Blacephalon while also removing Choice Scarf from foes such as Greninja, allowing for Nihilego to outspeed them. Galarian Slowking can safely pivot in Nihilego with Chilly Reception, as well as setting up Future Sight to pressure Nihilego's checks like Iron Hands and Clodsire. Toxapex can safely come in on priority moves such as Scizor's Bullet Punch and Mimikyu's Shadow Sneak and safely handle them thanks to Scald.

Phenomenal writing, reviewed for QC. Everything looks perfect though I would tempt to say to change DeoS to Tapu Lele but.. it isn't necessary.
