Although it tends to underperform defensively due to the presence of dangerous threats such as Aegislash as well as competition with other Spikers like Ting-Lu, Mew still has great bulk for the tier and can sport a good amount of utility for teams with entry hazard setting or removal. Mew can easily set Spikes against foes such as Ting-Lu and Skarmory, and it can even set the hazard against offensive threats such as Mega Latias and Rotom-W. Mew can also switch into and remove entry hazards against Ting-Lu, Skarmory, and Clefable with Defog. Will-O-Wisp allows Mew to cripple wallbreakers such as Bisharp and Scizor. In a pinch, Will-O-Wisp can also be used to prevent faster threats like Galarian Zapdos and Iron Boulder from causing havoc. Knock Off has good synergy with Spikes to remove Heavy-Duty Boots from threats like Slowbro, Iron Moth, and Zeraora while still being able to punish Choice-locked wallbreakers such as Greninja and Hydreigon. Psychic allows Mew to immediately pressure threats like Iron Moth, Amoonguss, and Galarian Zapdos, while Night Shade can provide consistent damage into threats such as Ting-Lu and Celesteela. Mew's EV spread is invested to outrun Adamant Choice Band Buzzwole, but it is flexible enough to run slower spreads like 16 Speed EVs to just outrun Bisharp. Mew best fits on balance teams looking to find a valuable role compression option that can set or control entry hazards while still blanket checking a ton of threats, such as Galarian Zapdos and Iron Boulder, which helps to enable teammates such as Mienshao, Scizor, and Iron Moth. Common pivots such as Rotom-W and Galarian Zapdos can easily force Mew in and pivot out to checks such as Aegislash, so partners that can block or punish their pivoting such as Ting-Lu and Zeraora as well as Rocky Helmet users like Clefable and Rotom-W are appreciated. Mew hates offensive Dark-types like Greninja, Hydreigon, and Tyranitar even if it can punish them, so it enjoys additional partners like Galarian Zapdos and Keldeo to force them out. Aegislash is a big roadblock for Mew, so pairing it up with Iron Moth and Bisharp is great for it; in return, Mew can harass their common checks such as Ting-Lu and Mega Venusaur. Spikes Mew can also pair nicely with Stealth Rock users like Ting-Lu, Clefable, and Hippowdon to overwhelm entry hazard removers such as Excadrill and Rotom-W. Partners that can take advantage of Rotom-W's attempts to use Defog, such as Galarian Zapdos and Bisharp, also are valuable to Mew in order to let it set Spikes freely.

AMQC. Approved by Dan and Pubo with some contribution from the latter. Looks good for 1/1 based on content, but I'd polish the grammar before sending it to GP

Although it tends to under-perform defensively due to the presence of dangerous threats such as Mega Tyranitar and Aegislash, Mew still has great bulk for the tier and can still sport a good amount of utility for teams with entry hazard setting or removal. Mew can easily set Spikes against foes such as Ting-Lu, Skarmory, and even more offensive threats such as Mega Latias and Rotom-W. It can also use these same pokemon as switch ins to Defog entry hazards from Ting-Lu, Skarmory, and Clefable's entry hazards. Will-O-Wisp allows Mew to cripple wallbreakers such as Mega Tyranitar and Scizor while also using them later as opportunities to provide utility I feel like this could be worded better. In a pinch, Will-O-Wisp can also be used to punish faster threats like Galarian Zapdos and Iron Boulder from causing havoc. Knock Off provides good synergy with Spikes to remove Heavy-Duty Boots from threats like Slowbro, Iron Moth, and Zeraora while still being able to punish Choice locked wallbreakers such as Greninja and Hydreigon. Psychic allows Mew to immediately pressure threats like Iron Moth, Amoonguss, and Galarian Zapdos. While Night Shade can provide consistent damage into threats such as Mega Tyranitar, Ting-Lu, and Celesteela. Mew's EV spread is invested to outrun Adamant Choice Band Buzzwole, but Mew is flexible enough to invest into slower or faster spreads such as creeping Mega Tyranitar and Excadrill respectively without much drawback. You lose a good amount of bulk if you run enough Speed for Excadrill, so either nuke the drawback part or just Excadrill here. Mew best fits on balance teams looking to find a valuable role compression option to that can set or control entry hazards while still blanket checking a ton of threats mention specific threats here, which helps to enable threats such as Mienshao and Scizor Could mention Iron Moth here because it appreciates both. Common pivots such as Rotom-W and Galarian Zapdos can easily lure it into switching into them in order to bring in checks such as Aegislash, so partners that can block or punish their pivoting such as Ting-Lu, Zeraroa, and Rocky Helmet users like Clefable and Rotom-Wash are appreciated. Mew still hates offensive Dark-types like Greninja, Hydreigon, and Mega Tyranitar even if it can still punish them so it enjoys additional partners like Galarian Zapdos and Keldeo to force them out. Aegislash is a big roadblock for Mew so pairing up with Iron Moth, Bisharp, or Mega Tyranitar is great for it. Mew's ability to harrass their common checks such as Ting-Lu, Mega Venusaur, and Rotom-W is well appreciated by them in return. I would use the last sentence to mention Stealth Rockers since Spikes Mew and a lot of Stealth Rockers (such as Mega Tyranitar) synergies, and Mew benefits from Knock Off from Mega Ttar in particular.

You could also mention Pokemon that can harass hazard removal such as Bisharp and other offensive threats that can pressure common entry hazard removal.

Mew also has competition as a Spiker / Defogger (tho not as much competition as a defogger), so you could mention that either in the opening or in the sentence where you describe the teams where mew fits.

It Mew can also use these same pokemon as switch ins to Defog into and remove entry hazards from against Ting-Lu, Skarmory, and Clefable with Defog.

Knock Off provides has good synergy with Spikes to remove Heavy-Duty Boots from threats like Slowbro, Iron Moth, and Zeraora while still being able to punish Choice-locked wallbreakers such as Greninja and Hydreigon. Psychic allows Mew to immediately pressure threats like Iron Moth, Amoonguss, and Galarian Zapdos. (RP), (AC) while Night Shade can provide consistent damage into threats such as Mega Tyranitar, Ting-Lu, and Celesteela. Mew's EV spread is invested to outrun Adamant Choice Band Buzzwole, but Mew it is flexible enough to invest into run slower spreads to just outrun Mega-Tyranitar or Mega Tyranitar and Bisharp. (would be worth saying how many speed evs that is) Mew best fits on balance teams looking to find a valuable role compression option that can set or control entry hazards while still blanket checking a ton of threats, such as Galarian Zapdos and Iron Boulder, which helps to enable threats teammates such as Mienshao, Scizor, (AC) and Iron Moth. Common pivots such as Rotom-W and Galarian Zapdos can easily lure it into switching into them in order force Mew in and pivot out to bring in checks such as Aegislash, so partners that can block or punish their pivoting such as Ting-Lu, Zeraroa, and Zeraora as well as Rocky Helmet users like Clefable and Rotom-W are appreciated. Mew still (still doesn't make sense because it's comparing to something that hasn't been states) hates offensive Dark-types like Greninja, Hydreigon, and Mega Tyranitar even if it can still punish them, (AC) so it enjoys additional partners like Galarian Zapdos and Keldeo to force them out. Aegislash is a big roadblock for Mew, (AC) so pairing it up with Iron Moth, Bisharp, or Mega Tyranitar is great for it. (RP); (ASC) in return, Mew's ability to harrass can harass their common checks such as Ting-Lu, Mega Venusaur, and Rotom-W is well appreciated by them in return. Spikes Mew can also pair nicely with Stealth Rockers Rock users like Mega Tyranitar, Clefable, and Hippowdon to overwhelm entry hazard removers such as Excadrill and Rotom-W. Partners that can abuse take advantage of Rotom-W's attempts to defog use Defog, such as Galarian Zapdos and Bisharp, (AC) also are valuable to Mew in order to let it set Spikes freely.
