Galarian Moltres utilizes its great bulk, typing, and movepool to become a great offensive support Pokemon that can also beat the powerful Calyrex formes. Fiery Wrath provides a consistent spread STAB option paired with its chance to flinch, complimenting Galarian Moltres's bulk as a great tool to wrack up damage. Foul Play on the other hand is a great anti-physical attacker tool, giving Galarian Moltres a fairly good matchup into Calyrex-I. Tailwind gives Galarian Moltres a supportive role in providing speed control for its team, allowing it to outspeed and fire off Fiery Wraths and Foul Plays. Black Glasses helps boost Galarian Moltres's damage output even more, allowing it to OHKO Calyrex-S and pairing well with potential Berserk boosts. The Speed investment allows Galarian Moltres to outspeed Choice Scarf Urshifu-R with Tailwind active, as well as naturally outspeeding most Gholdengo. The defensive investment allows Galarian Moltres to have a good chance of surviving a +2 Tera Fairy-boosted Draining Kiss from Calyrex-S or a Flare Blitz from non-Tera Fire Koraidon. Tera Dark sheds Galarian Moltres's Ice and Electric weaknesses, and the increased damage to its Dark-type STAB moves allow it to threaten an OHKO on Calyrex-I.

Galarian Moltres typically struggles against Pokemon that can reliably win the damage trade versus it like Raging Bolt and Zamazenta-C. Amoonguss is able to comfortably tank Galarian Moltres's attacks and retaliate with Spore. Miraidon and Urshifu-R are also problematic matchups for Galarian Moltres, as Miraidon is able to outspeed and OHKO it, while Urshifu-R takes minimal damage from Galarian Moltres and can hit it in return with a Surging Strikes. While Zamazenta-C is is a great check against Galarian Moltres, it is also an amazing partner. Galarian Moltres gives it speed control and strong super effective damage against the Ghost-types Zamazenta-C would typically struggle against while Zamazenta-C grants Wide Guard support for Galarian Moltres, allowing it to effectively counter Calyrex-I. Fairy-types that would try to counter Galarian Moltres like Flutter Mane and Tera Fairy Calyrex-S are also covered by Zamazenta-C's Heavy Slam. Rillaboom is able to deal with opposing Urshifu-R trying to take advantage of their Dark resistance, as well as overriding Electric Terrain from Miraidon and threatening an OHKO with Choice Band-boosted High Horsepower.

Galarian Moltres utilizes its great bulk, typing, and movepool to become a great offensive support that can also beat the powerful Calyrex forms. Thanks to Black Glasses, Galarian Moltres is able to increase the damage of its Dark STAB in Fiery Wrath and Foul Play, which is especially threatening paired with its Berserk ability, boosting its damage even further once it reaches 1/2 of its health. These two moves are crucial in Galarian Moltres's kit. (don't need to talk about black glasses and fiery wrath/foul play here when you mention them later on, also there's a chunk of dex info in here) Fiery Wrath provides a great consistent STAB option with the extra benefit of having the ability to flinch the opponent, this can be especially deadly versus more slower paced teams, increasing the likelihood of a flinch to occur the longer the game goes on. (this isn't really necescary info)Foul Play on the other hand is a great anti-physical attacker tool, giving Galarian Moltres a positive (it's not necescarily positive they can just glacial lance you) matchup into Calyrex-I. Tailwind gives Galarian Moltres a supportive role in providing speed control for its team, allowing it to outspeed and fire off Fiery Wraths and Foul Plays. (mention glasses here) The speed investment allows Galarian Moltres to outspeed Choice Scarf Urshifu-R with Tailwind active, (you hit 240 while adamant scarffu hits 223; pretty sure adamant is the main scarffu nature, what's the rest of the speed for?)with the defensive investment allowing Galarian Moltres to have a great chance of living +2 Tera Fairy Boosted Draining Kiss from Calyrex-S and Flare Blitz from non-Tera Fire Koraidon. Tera Dark sheds Galarian Moltres's Ice and Electric weakness with the extra benefit of increasing its Dark STAB further. (not really an extra benefit the main reason you use tera dark is for the extra damage)

Galarian Moltres typically struggles against Pokemon that can reliable win the damage trade versus it like Raging Bolt and Zamazenta-C. Amoonguss is also an issue for Galarian Moltres, being able to comfortably tank its attacks and retaliate with Spore. While Zamazenta-C is is a great check for Galarian Moltres, it is also an amazing partner, Galarian Moltres giving it speed control and strong super effective damage against the Ghost-types Zamazenta-C would typically struggle against. Rillaboom is another great partner, providing Fake Out support to help set up Tailwind, as well as just being a great offensive partner that benefits from the speed control. (this whole paragraph feels like it can be expanded on. You could mention how zamazenta helps with fairy types, such as tera'd caly-s and flutter mane, and how with wide guard support, goltres walls caly-I. Also basically all rilla that goltres are paired with are choice banded. Feels like there's more you can do w/ this.)

(could probably split this whole part into like 3 sentences sentences)Fairy-types that would try to counter Galarian Moltres like Flutter Mane and Tera Fairy Calyrex-S are also covered by Zamazenta-C's Heavy Slam. Rillaboom is another great partner, providing Fake Out support to help set up Tailwind with AV or Miracle Seed sets, but to also deal with opposing Urshifu-R trying to take advantage of their Dark resistance. (av and mseed aren't really partners, it's mainly band; any synergies you can find with golt+band rilla? (pretty sure hhp kills mirai which golt can struggle with))

Fiery Wrath provides a great consistent STAB option with the extra benefit of having the ability to flinch the opponent. (This is worded like dex info, would personally remove it but you can choose to reword it.) Foul Play on the other hand is a great anti-physical attacker tool, giving Galarian Moltres a fairly good matchup into Calyrex-I. Tailwind gives Galarian Moltres a supportive role in providing speed control for its team, allowing it to outspeed and fire off Fiery Wraths and Foul Plays.

The defensive investment allows Galarian Moltres to have a good chance of living +2 Tera Fairy boosted Draining Kiss from Calyrex-S and survive a (Worded in a way that suggests Flare Blitz is a roll.) Flare Blitz from non-Tera Fire Koraidon. Tera Dark sheds Galarian Moltres's Ice and Electric weakness paired with increased damage to its Dark STAB, threatening an OHKO on Calyrex-I. (Example thresholds for damage are good.)

The defensive investment allows Galarian Moltres to have a good chance of living surviving a +2 Tera Fairy-boosted hyphen Draining Kiss from Calyrex-S and survive or a Flare Blitz from non-Tera Fire Koraidon. I am assuming that it can take either one move or the other without being KOed. If it can take both without any recovery, keep it as "and" Tera Dark sheds Galarian Moltres's Ice and Electric weakness paired with weaknesses, and the increased damage to its Dark-type STAB, (RC) threatening moves allow it to threaten an OHKO on Calyrex-I.
