RU Virizion (QC 1/1) (GP 1/1)!

Virizion @ Life Orb
Ability: Justified
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Synthesis
- Swords Dance
- Close Combat
- Leaf Blade

Showing great potential in RU and being A+ in the Viability Rankings, Virizion's high Speed stat, incredible Special Defense, and unique typing allow it to check common Pokemon in the tier, such as Registeel, Donphan, and Blastoise. In addition, Justified can guarantee an Attack boost if Virizion switches into a Dark-type move, specifically Knock Off and Dark Pulse, which are pretty common in the tier, turning both Leaf Blade and Close Combat into more powerful STAB moves. Furthermore, Virizion has access to Swords Dance, which increases its Attack by two stages, making it capable of threatening almost the entire metagame. Moreover, thanks to its excellent movepool, Virizion manages to increase its longevity in the game thanks to Synthesis, arising more opportunities to set up with Swords Dance. Finally, Synthesis makes Virizion a more consistent check against Pokemon like Mega Blastoise and Zygarde-10%.

You mentioned some really bad mons virizion checks, I suggest going through VR
Also edge is good against sigi xatu, rose is irrelevant there and moltres isnt even ru. I suggest making some major changes to this and tag me when you are done.

Oh sure, I forgot about Moltres lol.
 
After talking with other QC, change the set to LO + synthesis with the same stabs. Stone Edge is only really worth if you have Rockium, and even then Grassium is an odd choice currently.

"as its high Speed stat with an incredible Special Defense and unique typing allows Virizion to check common Pokemon in the tier, such as Registeel, Golisopod, Donphan, Slowbro, and mainly Blastoise."
I don't know if this was a mistake but Golisopod is one Virizion's best checks, so remove it from here. A lot of Slowbro are rindo berry and even without it Leaf Blade isn't doing much so, remove. Registeel, Donphan, and Blastoise are fine examples, just remove the "mainly" before Blastoise, you're still wary of Beam and it's not as common as it was a while back.

"Furthermore, Virizion has access to Swords Dance, which increases its Attack in two stages, making it a very ominous attacker capable of threatening almost the entire metagame."
I'm not too sure what 'ominous' is used here for, it's pretty clear what Viriz will be doing after a Swords Dance so.. yea.

Replace the segment on Stone Edge to talk more about Synthesis, when to use it, what to use it against, etc.

The opening line is very 'fluff' and I'd make some changes to it, number of weaknesses at the end of the day is semi-irrelevant.

Message me when this is done and I'll take another look

This is ok as is but usually facebook spotlights have a sentence or two talking about teammates to the Pokemon in question.
