With a Grassy Seed activation, Thievul becomes a powerful sweeper on Grassy Terrain teams. Burning Jealousy hits Grass-types like Ferroseed, Whimsicott, and Eldegoss, OHKOing the former two as well as Ribombee at +2. Grass Knot OHKOes Rock-types like Gigalith and Regirock at +2 after Stealth Rock under Grassy Terrain. The EVs allow Unburden Thievul to outspeed Choice Scarf Basculin and Adamant Sandslash in sand and take a Ribombee's Moonblast from full HP, while the rest is dumped into Defense to help Thievul tank priority moves better. A Timid nature with maximum Speed allows Unburden Thievul to outspeed foes like Choice Scarf Ribombee and +2 Hitmonlee, but these are seldom seen, and it makes Thievul unable to guarantee OHKOs on defensive Whimsicott and Wishiwashi at +2. Thwackey is a mandatory partner, as it is the only viable Grassy Surge user in the tier. Entry hazards setters like Coalossal and Sandslash can both remove and set entry hazards, providing solid role compression. Other sweepers are essential: Swoobat appreciates Thievul threatening Steel- and Rock-types like Ferroseed and Gigalith while it beats other special walls like Toxic Audino for Thievul, whereas Aurorus appreciates Thievul weakening special walls like Gigalith and Wishiwashi that threaten it.

With a Grassy Seed activation, Thievul becomes a powerful sweeper on Grassy Terrian teams. Burning Jealously hits Grass-types like Ferroseed, Whimsitcott Whimsicott, and Eldegoss, OHKOing the former two at +2. (def mention reliably OHKOing ribombee at +2, too.) Grass Knot hits Rock-types like Gigalith and Regirock, OHKOing them at +2 after Stealth Rocks under Grassy Terrain. A Modest nature gives Thievul the most power possible. The EVs allow for Thievul to outspeed Choice Scarf Basculin (something like adamant sandslash in sand might be worth a mention too, very relevant. also specify that you only outspeed them after an unburden boost.) and take a Ribombee Moonblast from full, while the rest is dumped into Def to help tank priority moves better. A Timid nature with max Speed can outspeed foes like Choice Scarf Ribombee and +2 Hitmonlee, but these are seldom seen. Thwackey is a mandatory partner, as it is the only viable Grassy Surge user in the tier. Entry hazards setters like Coalossal and Sandslash can both remove and set entry hazards at the same time, giving Thievul more longevity while improving Thievul's KO potential. Swoobat pairs wonderfully with Thievul, as it appreciates Thievul threatening Steel- and Rock-types like Ferroseed and Gigalith. (could possibly mention stuff swoobat beats for thievul to show why they're a good pair.)

Thwackey is a mandatory partner, as it is the only viable Grassy Surge user in the tier. Entry hazards setters like Coalossal and Sandslash can both remove and set entry hazards at the same time, giving Thievul more longevity while improving Thievul's KO potential prob sounds cleaner just saying role compression, the second bit sounds kinda like filler. Other grass-seed sweepers are essential Swoobat pairs wonderfully with Thievul, as it appreciates Thievul threatening Steel- and Rock-types like Ferroseed and Gigalith, while Swoobat takes advantage of other special walls like Toxic Audino for Thievul. i think hitmonlee is the most important mon to include on terrain w it but can mention w/e, give an example of a sweeper that isnt a seed user as well

Burning Jealousy hits Grass-types like Ferroseed, Whimsicott, and Eldegoss, OHKOing the former two as well as Ribombee at +2as well as Ribombee. Grass Knot hits OHKOes Rock-types like Gigalith and Regirock, OHKOing them at +2 after Stealth Rocks under Grassy Terrain. A Modest nature gives Thievul the most power possible. (dex info) The EVs allow for Unburden (I assume this is what you meant) Thievul to outspeed Choice Scarf Basculin and Adamant Sandslash under in Sand at +2 and take a Ribombee's Moonblast from full HP, while the rest is dumped into Defense to help Thievul tank priority moves better. A Timid nature with max Speed allows Unburden Thievul to can outspeed foes like Choice Scarf Ribombee and +2 Hitmonlee, but these are seldom seen, and it makes Thievul unable to guarantee OHKOs on . A Timid nature also gives defensive Whimsicott and Wishiwashi a chance to live from full at +2. Thwackey is a mandatory partner, as it is the only viable Grassy Surge user in the tier. Entry hazards setters like Coalossal and Sandslash can both remove and set entry hazards at the same time, providing solid role compression. Other sweepers are essential: one example is Swoobat, which pairs wonderfully with Thievul, as it appreciates Thievul threatening Steel- and Rock-types like Ferroseed and Gigalith,(remove comma) while Swoobat it takes advantage of beats other special walls like Toxic Audino for Thievul, (add comma) whereas . Another example is Aurorus, which appreciates Thievul weakening special walls like Gigalith and Wishiwashi that threaten it.
