[SET COMMENTS]
Swords Dance along with decent coverage options and a STAB priority move under Grassy Terrain makes Rillaboom a threatening wallbreaker for Grass teams. Grassy Glide under Grassy Terrain gains priority and can be used against faster Pokemon that can threaten the team like Alolan Ninetales, Mamoswine, Weavile, and Galarian Darmanitan. Superpower increases Rillaboom's coverage, allowing it to hit or even OHKO defensive Steel-types such as Corviknight, Ferrothorn, and Heatran. Knock Off gets rid of items from Pokemon that would normally switch into Rillaboom like Toxapex, Galarian Corsola, and Skarmory, as well as hitting Pokemon that resist its other attacks like Aegislash and Galarian Slowking. High Horsepower can also be used over Knock Off to increase Rillaboom's coverage and allow it to hit Poison-types like Toxapex. Life Orb allows Rillaboom to 2HKO or even OHKO threats like Gengar, Corviknight, and Urshifu-S with the appropriate coverage moves after a Swords Dance boost. Maximum EVs in Speed allow Rillaboom to outspeed threats like specially defensive Heatran and Adamant Mamoswine.

Ferrothorn can provide Spikes support, which can help chip away at the enemy team, making it easier for Rillaboom to sweep. Additionally, Ferrothorn can switch into threatening Pokemon such as Freeze-Dry Kyurem for Rillaboom. Amoonguss is a good partner for Rillaboom, as it can switch into many special attacks such as Gengar's Sludge Wave and remove Toxic Spikes to keep Rillaboom healthy. Cradily can set Stealth Rock for Rillaboom, allowing it to take out Pokemon such as Corviknight with +2 Superpower. Additionally, its Rock typing allows it to check Flying- and Fire-type threats to Grass teams such as Choice Specs Zapdos, Galarian Moltres, and Volcarona with Rock Blast and Recover. Zarude can check Psychic- and Ghost-type Pokemon for Rillaboom such as Tapu Lele and Dragapult; this is especially important for Rillaboom, as Zarude's ability to beat Tapu Lele allows Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain to become uninterrupted by Psychic teams. Additionally, its Choice Scarf set can take on +1 Quiver Dance Volcarona with Rock Slide. Celebi can take on troublesome Poison-type Pokemon for Rillaboom like Toxapex, Galarian Weezing, and Nidoking with its Nasty Plot set, while Earth Power can also take on Dark-types such as Drapion and Skuntank. Whimsicott can take on Dark-, Dragon-, and Fighting-type Pokemon for Rillaboom such as Urshifu-S, Galarian Moltres, Kyurem, and Buzzwole. Additionally, Whimsicott can prevent threatening setup Pokemon such as Volcarona and Calm Mind Tapu Lele from becoming problematic by locking them into the setup move with Encore. Rotom-C takes on Flying-types such as Celesteela and Tornadus-T with Thunderbolt for Rillaboom.

Holding Terrain Extender, Rillaboom is able to not only be a sweeper and wallbreaker but it can manage to help support the team by providing extra turns of Grassy Terrain. Swords Dance is used to increase Rillaboom's damage, making it easier to weaken the enemy's team or possibly even just sweep. I think this is dex info and isnt needed, You can format the sentence after this one to say Rillaboom can set up Swords Dance on Pokemon that cannot threaten it such as Clefable and Ferrothorn.Pokemon like Ferrothorn and Clefable who cannot deal any damage back can be taken advantage of in order to set up a Swords Dance for free. Grassy Glide gives Rillaboom a strong STAB move which can also have priority under Grassy Terrain. This allows Rillaboom to hit faster Pokemon which can threaten the team. Pelipper, Kingdra, and Weavile are just a few of the many threats that Grass-type teams can face, Grassy Glide can 2HKO these Pokemon and potentially OHKO with a Swords Dance up. I think that this can be condensed a bit more to get the point to the reader a lot faster. Something like Grassy Glide is a STAB prority move under Grassy Terrain that allows it to threaten Pokemon such as Pelipper, Kingdra and Weavile. Knock Off is used for coverage purposes and can get rid of the items of Pokemon who can easily switch in on Rillaboom like Toxapex, Skarmory, and Corviknight. High Horsepower lets Rillaboom deal damage to bulkier Poison and Steel-type Pokemon that can easily take Rillaboom's STAB like Aegislash, Amoonguss, and Toxapex. U-turn lets Rillaboom pivot out against incoming Pokemon that can check it like Togekiss and Amoonguss. It also provides the rest of the team with Grassy Terrain turns that can help restore health and strengthen Grass-type attacks. Drain Punch can also be used over U-turn as a form of recovery against bulkier Pokemon like Ferrothorn, Chansey, and Porygon2. Max EVs in Atk while Adamant lets Rillaboom deal the most damage it can and This doesnt add anything, I would just leave in the Speed part. max EVs in Speed allows Rillaboom to outspeed threats like Pelipper, Bisharp, and Aegislash.

By using Terrain Extender, Rillaboom can opt to have teammates that take full advantage of Grassy Terrain. Bulkier Pokemon like Ferrothorn, Amoonguss, and Appletun appreciate the recovery they receive from Grassy Terrain as it makes it easier for them to eat up attacks throughout the battle. Pokemon that set up like Shiftry and Venusaur can also take advantage of the extra turns of Terrain due to the additional healing that Grassy Terrain provides. Add on here what mus these two help with. Overall, teammates that aren't Flying-types or have Levitate can benefit from the extra turns of Terrain that Rillaboom provides. As for Pokemon that can help aid Rillaboom in sweeping, This is dex info with what Grassy territen doesnt boost. Ferrothorn and Celebi can set up hazards which helps weaken the enemy, making it easier for Rillaboom to sweep later on. I rather have Celebi be only mentioned to take down Poison-types and it cant really afford to drop anything to run rocks. Celebi can also be used in order to deal with Poison-types like Amoonguss and Gengar that Rillaboom can't outspeed or hit. If you are going to mention Choice Scarf Celebi, then you need to specfic. I would also mention how Nasty Plot Celebi can mow down the Poison-type matchup with Earth Power and Psyshic.Fire-types like Charizard and Volcarona also pose a huge threat to Rillaboom and thus Choice Scarf Virizion and Appletun can help check these with Stone Edge and Thick Fat respectively. I would add Choice Scrf to virizon because most Charizard on Fire / flying are Choice Scarf and gives an emecy check to volcarona if its only qd once. Bug-types that can outspeed or take a hit from Rillaboom can be checked by Weather Ball Venusaur under the sun or Stone Edge by Virizion. I would put then up were Shiftry and Venusuare is, as Stone Edge Virizion is already mentioned wtih Fire-types. I would also add Whimsi in here either with the set up sweepers to set up Sun and that its Fairy-typing is very useful for threatening Dragon- and Dark-types that rillaboom cannot threaten.

High Horsepower can also be used over Knock off to increase Rillaboom's coverage by being able to hit Steel and Poison-types like Toxapex, Aegislash, and Jirachi.

"Pokemon like Ferrothorn and Clefable who cannot deal any damage back can be taken advantage of in order to set up a Swords Dance for free."
- Change the wording from "any damage" to "much damage"

"Maximum EVs in Speed allows Rillaboom to outspeed threats like Pelipper, Bisharp, and Aegislash."
- Run Mamoswine > Aegislash as an example; remove Pelipper since you're Grassy Gliding it anyways

"Whimsicott can also included in the team as it can set up sun for Chlorophyll sweepers and can help threaten Dragon and Dark-type Pokemon like Hydreigon, Mandibuzz, and Kommo-o that Rillaboom can't deal with. "

"As for Pokemon that can help aid Rillaboom in sweeping, Ferrothorn can set up hazards which helps weaken the enemy, making it easier for Rillaboom to sweep later on."
- Call out Spikes here and how Rillaboom takes advantage of them well because of the switches it forces

"Ferrothorn is also able to help deal with Ice-types like Alolan Ninetails and Avalugg which can be problematic for the team. "
- Run Kyurem > Alolan Ninetales because Kyurem is more problematic by resisting Grassy Glide. Change the wording from "the team" to "Rillaboom"; it's about how it supports Rillaboom specifically, not the team.

Choice Scarf or Nasty Plot Celebi with Psychic and Earth Power can also be used in order to deal with Poison-types like Amoonguss and Gengar that Rillaboom can't outspeed or hit.

Whimsicott can help threaten Dragon-(AH) and Dark-type Pokemon like Hydreigon, Mandibuzz, and Kommo-o that Rillaboom can't deal with. As for Pokemon that can help aid Rillaboom in sweeping, Ferrothorn can set up entry hazards which helps to weaken the enemy, making it easier for Rillaboom to take advantage of them excellently by forcing switches and sweep later on and abuses them excellently by forcing switches. Ferrothorn is also able to help deal with Ice-types like Kyurem and Avalugg,(AC) which can be problematic for Rillaboom. Nasty Plot Celebi with Psychic and Earth Power can also be used in order to deal with Poison-types like Amoonguss and Gengar that Rillaboom can't outspeed or hit. Fire-types like Charizard and Volcarona also pose a huge threat to Rillaboom,(AC) and thus Virizion and Appletun can help check these with Stone Edge and Thick Fat,(AC) respectively. Bug-types that can outspeed or take a hit from Rillaboom (might wanna mention some examples) can be checked by Weather Ball Venusaur under the sun or and Stone Edge by Virizion.

Swords Dance along with decent coverage options and a STAB priority move under Terrain,(RC) makes Rillaboom a threatening wallbreaker for Grass-(RH) teams. Grassy Glide under Grassy Terrain gains priority and can be used against faster Pokemon that can threaten the team like Pelipper, Weavile,(AC) and Galarian Darmanitan. Superpower extends increases Rillaboom's coverage,(AC) allowing it to hit or even OHKO defensive Pokemon such as Corviknight, Ferrothorn, and Porygon2. Knock off Off gets rid of the items of from Pokemon that would normally switch in on into Rillaboom like Toxapex, Togekiss, and Skarmory but at the same time being able to hit ,(AC) as well as hitting Pokemon that would resist its other attacks like Aegislash. High Horsepower can also be used over Knock off to increase Rillaboom's coverage by being able and allow it to hit Steel-(AH) and Poison-types like Aegislash, Jirachi, and Toxapex. Holding the Life Orb allows Rillaboom to 2HKO or even OHKO after a Swords Dance threats like Gengar, Corviknight, and Urshifu with the appropriate coverage moves after a Swords Dance boost. Maximum EVs in Speed allows allow Rillaboom to outspeed threats like Bisharp,(RC) and Mamoswine.

Teammates like Venusaur, Shiftry, and Virizion appreciate Rillaboom's ability to weaken bulkier Pokemon like Toxapex, Porygon2, and Corviknight in order for them to clean up late-game. Whimsicott can also be paired with Rillaboom by providing to provide Stun Spore support or even using use Memento in order to open up situations where Rillaboom can freely set up a Swords Dance setup opportunities for Rillaboom. Ferrothorn can provide entry hazard support,(AC) which can help by chipping chip away at the enemy team, making it easier for Rillaboom to sweep. Stealth Rock in particular is great for allowing Rillaboom to OHKO Corviknight after a Swords Dance boost. Common checks to Rillaboom would be Flying-types like Togekiss, Skarmory, and Charizard;(ASC) thus,(AC) Virizion and Rotom-Mow would Rotom-C make great partners for Rillaboom ,(AC) as they can hit Flying-types for super-effective super effective damage. Amoonguss is a good partner for Rillaboom,(AC) as it can switch into many special attacks for it such as Gengar's Sludge Wave and remove Toxic Spikes to keep Rillaboom healthy. It can also be noticed is worth mentioning that Rillaboom has a hard time dealing with faster Fire-types such as Charizard, Volcarona, and Cinderace. Virizion and Appletun can help deal with Fire-type Pokemon them,(AC) as Virizion can threaten Fire-type Pokemon with Stone Edge,(AC) while Appletun and can take Fire-type attack due thanks to Thick Fat. Weather Ball Venusaur under the Sun sun and Stone Edge Virizion helps help deal with Bug-types like Scizor and Volcarona that can outspeed or take hits from Rillaboom.

Swords Dance along with decent coverage options and a STAB priority move under Grassy Terrain makes Rillaboom a threatening wallbreaker for Grass teams. Grassy Glide under Grassy Terrain gains priority and can be used against faster Pokemon that can threaten the team like Urshifu-R [Is Urshifu-R really a threat? it has to deal with Amoonguss, Whimsicott, Rotom-C, etc. I would definitely add a different example here like Alolan Ninetales or Jolly Mamoswine], Weavile, and Galarian Darmanitan. Superpower increases Rillaboom's coverage, allowing it to hit or even OHKO defensive Pokemon [Instead of Pokemon I would say "Steel-types", but up to you] such as Corviknight, Ferrothorn, and Heatran. Knock Off gets rid of the items from Pokemon that would normally switch into Rillaboom like Toxapex, Galarian Corsola, and Skarmory, as well as hitting Pokemon that resist its other attacks like Aegislash and Galarian Slowking. High Horsepower can also be used over Knock off to increase Rillaboom's coverage and allow it to hit Steel- and Poison-types like Aegislash, Jirachi [While this is true, they are both hit by Knock Off anyway. I think keeping it to "Poison-types such as Toxapex, Neutralizing Gas Galarian Weezing, and Skuntank" is fine], and Toxapex. Life Orb allows Rillaboom to 2HKO or even OHKO threats like Gengar, Corviknight, and Urshifu with the appropriate coverage moves after a Swords Dance boost. Maximum EVs in Speed allow Rillaboom to outspeed threats like Heatran [Min speed Rillaboom still outspeeds defensive Heatran; add a diff example like Magnezone] and Mamoswine.

Ferrothorn can provide Spikes support, which can help chip away at the enemy team, making it easier for Rillaboom to sweep. Additionally, Ferrothorn can switch into threatening Pokemon such as Freeze Dry Kyurem for Rillaboom . Amoonguss is a good partner for Rillaboom, as it can switch into many special attacks such as Gengar's Sludge Wave and remove Toxic Spikes to keep Rillaboom healthy. Cradily can set Stealth Rock for Rillaboom, allowing it to take out Pokemon such as Corviknight after a Swords Dance boost with Superpower. Additionally, its Rock typing allows it to check Flying-type threats to Grass teams such as Choice Specs Zapdos and Galarian Moltres [Also add that it deals with Fire-types like Volcarona and Moltres] with Rock Blast and Recover. Zarude can check Psychic- and Ghost-type Pokemon for Rillaboom such as Tapu Lele and Dragapult. This is especially important for Rillaboom, as its ability to beat Tapu Lele allows Rillaboom's Grassy Terrain to become uninterrupted by Psychic teams. Additionally, its Choice Scarf set can take on +1 boosted Quiver Dance Volcarona with Rock Slide. Celebi can take on troublesome Poison-type Pokemon for Rillaboom with its Nasty Plot set taking on Toxapex, Galarian Weezing, and Nidoking while Earth Power can also take on Dark-types such as Drapion and Skuntank. Whimsicott can take on Dark-, Dragon-, and Fighting-type Pokemon for Rillaboom such as Urshifu-S, Galarian Moltres, Kyurem, and Buzzwole. Additionally, Whimsicott can prevent threatening setup Pokemon such as Volcarona and Calm Mind Tapu Lele from becoming problematic by locking them into set up with Encore. Rotom-C takes on Flying-types such as Celesteela and Tornadus-T with Thunderbolt for Rillaboom.
