Galvantula carves a out niche in Ubers UU thanks to it being the fastest available Sticky Web setter, having solid offenses, and having the ability to threaten out common forms of entry hazard control like Great Tusk and Mandibuzz. Energy Ball gives Galvantula coverage against Ground-types like Great Tusk and Landorus, although Bug Buzz is an option to give it a secondary STAB option hit Pokemon like Mewtwo, Arceus-Dark, and Deoxys. Thunder Wave allows Galvantula to cripple Pokemon like Zacian, Kyurem-W, and Arceus-Poison after setting up Sticky Web. Although Galvantula will not often Terastallize, Tera Ghost allows it to block Rapid Spin from Great Tusk and Cyclizar. Focus Sash guarantees Galvantula will set up Sticky Web and potentially fire off an attack or paralyze something afterwards. Galvantula should be exclusively used as a Sticky Web lead for hyper offense teams. The most obvious partners for Galvantula are Pokemon that appreciate having their faster offensive counters slowed down, as well as Pokemon commonly revenge killed by faster threats. As a result, Pokemon like Choice Specs Kyurem-W, Mewtwo, and Landorus all make solid teammates. Ghost-types like Gholdengo and Dragapult and Taunt users like Arceus formes can prevent Rapid Spin and Defog and keep Sticky Web up. Counter leads like Taunt Arceus-Dark, Deoxys, and Hatterene can prevent Sticky Web being set up and give Galvantula issues, so Pokemon like Hatterene and Palafin that can deal with these threats are good to have as partners.

not a whole lot to say about this one, only a few minor suggestions.

need for speed

Galvantula carves out a niche in Ubers UU thanks to it being the fastest available Sticky Web setter available combined with its solid offenses (It has subpar offenses with base 97 Special Attack?) and ability to threaten out common forms of hazard control like Great Tusk and Mandibuzz. Energy Ball gives Galvantula coverage against Ground-types like Great Tusk and Landorus, although Bug Buzz is an option to give a secondary STAB option and provide coverage against Pokemon like Mewtwo, Arceus-Dark, or Deoxys. Thunder Wave allows Galvantula to cripple Pokemon like Zacian, Kyurem-W, and Arceus-Poison after setting up Sticky Web. (Before setting up Sticky Web, as it can hang on with its focus sash and get webs up afterwards?) Tera Ghost, although not often used, does allow Galvantula to block Rapid Spin from Great Tusk and Cyclizar. Galvantula should be exclusively used as a Sticky Web lead for hyper offense teams. The most obvious partners for Galvantula are Pokemon who appreciate having faster offensive counters slowed down, as well as Pokemon commonly revenge killed by faster threats. As such, Pokemon like Choice Specs Kyurem-W, Mewtwo, and Kingambit all make solid partners. Ghost-types like Gholdengo and Dragapult and Taunt users like Arceus formes can prevent Rapid Spin and Defog and keep Sticky Web up. (Maybe note opposing counter leads that can shut it down, such as Taunt Lead mons, [like deoxys & arceus] and Magic Bounce Hatterene.)

The most obvious partners for Galvantula are Pokemon who appreciate having faster offensive counters slowed down, as well as Pokemon commonly revenge killed by faster threats. As such, Pokemon like Choice Specs Kyurem-W, Mewtwo, and Kingambit Landorus-I Gambit is already extremely slow and doesn't easily outspeed pokemon even with webs up. Furthermore Gambit isn't easily revenge killed either, so it doesn't fit well into your examples. all make solid partners. Ghost-types like Gholdengo and Dragapult and Taunt users like Arceus formes can prevent Rapid Spin and Defog and keep Sticky Web up. Counter leads like Taunt Arceus-Dark, and Deoxys, and Magic Bounce Hatterene can prevent Sticky Web being set up and give Galvantula issues, So Pokemon like Kingambit Hatterene again Gambit doesn't fit well on webs and also doesn't exactly beat taunt Arc-Dark and Palafin who can deal with these threats are good to have as partners.
