Rest is used to recover HP after boosting and in order to remove status. It also is Galarian Corsola's primary tool for PP stalling. Amnesia is used to defend against special attackers lacking boosting moves like Kyurem and Weakness Policy Aegislash. Strength Sap doubles as both a recovery move and an Attack-lowering move, used to beat Pokemon like Dracovish, Choice item Excadrill, and Galarian Darmanitan. It should be used constantly against non-Trick Choice item Pokemon in order to heal off damage and fish for Cursed Body activations or stall until they can no longer deal significant damage. Night Shade is useful against Trick users, notably Rotom-H without much HP investment, which can be 3HKOed. It also is used to end a battle quickly, in order to avoid potential critical hits or secondary effects that stall often falls prey to. Will-O-Wisp can be used to shut down setup Pokemon like Crustle. The Defense investment and a Bold nature let Galarian Corsola take a Choice Band-boosted Fishious Rend from Jolly Dracovish, allowing Galarian Corsola to heal back up with Strength Sap. The rest of the EVs are dumped into Special Defense, which aids against Pokemon like Weakness Policy Aegislash. Generally, Galarian Corsola should set up with the respective defensive stat, heal off damage with Strength Sap or Rest, and then use Night Shade or Will-O-Wisp until the foe falls.

Galarian Corsola struggles against Taunt users with significant damage output, like Cinderace and Life Orb Zeraora, and Taunt users with recovery, like Corviknight and Mandibuzz. Therefore, Taunt users like Whimsicott and Chople Berry Terrakion that can beat them serve as great partners. In return, Galarian Corsola can handle hyper offensive threats such as Galarian Darmanitan, Sawk, and Choice Item Excadrill. Dark-types, particularly Bisharp, non-Choice Scarf Hydreigon, Incineroar, and Mandibuzz are also particularly threatening against Galarian Corsola, as they can hit it super effectively and often carry Knock Off, Taunt, or setup options. To aid against then, Pokemon like Choice Band Crustle, Choice Band Galarian Darmanitan, and Primarina can all be used to beat the metagame's relevant Dark-types. Galarian Corsola can beat back threats like Arcanine and opposing Primarina in return. Lastly, certain Trick users like Gardevoir, Malamar, and heavily HP-invested Rotom-W can present a problem for Galarian Corsola, so Pokemon that do not mind being Tricked and can avoid the move altogether, like Excadrill and Whimsicott, can be good partners. In return, Galarian Corsola can handle Pokemon like Steelix, Galarian Darmanitan, and Choice item Haxorus for them.

This is the pinnacle of stall in Gen 8 1v1. (is this line really needed? im pretty sure its implied from its high ranking on the vr + the name stall, but im not too sure about what to say) Rest is used to recover HP after boosting and in order to remove the badly poisoned status effect. Amnesia is can be used to defend against Pokemon like Weakness Policy Aegislash and Kyurem. Strength Sap doubles as both a recovery move and an Attack debuffer, used to beat Pokemon like Dracovish, Choiced Excadrill, and Darmanitan-G. It should be used constantly against non-Trick Choice item Pokemon in order to heal off damage and fish for Cursed Body activations, or until they can no longer deal significant damage. Will-O-Wisp can be used to shut down setup Pokemon like Crustle. (move this previous line since willo is kill) Night Shade is useful against Trick users like Rotom-A, allowing Corsola to 3HKO then even after losing Eviolite. The EV spread is designed for Corsola-G to take a Choice Band boosted Fishious Rend from Dracovish, allowing Corsola-G to heal back with Strength Sap. The rest of the EVs are dumped into Special Defense, which aids against Pokemon like Weakness Policy Aegislash. Generally, Corsola-G should set up with the respective defensive stat and either wait for Cursed Body to activate against an Attack, healing itself as it waits, or simply to Rest stall the opponents PP away until it is forced to struggle. (i mean, it can also hit the opponent with night shade while it's tanking hits, and you should also mention that you should use willo to wither them down if they dont have recovery / rest)

Corsola-G struggles against Taunt users with significant damage output, like Cinderace and Life Orb Zeraora, or Taunt users with recovery, like Corviknight and Mandibuzz. Therefore, opposing Taunt users like Incineroar and Whimsicott serve as great partners, who can handle the offensive and defensive capabilities of these Pokemon. In return, Corsola-G can handle hyperoffensive threats such as Darmanitan-G, Sawk, and Choiced Excadrill. Dark-types, particularly Bisharp, non-Choice Scarf Hydreigon, Incineroar, and Mandibuzz are also particularly threatening against Corsola, who can hit it super effectively and often carry Knock Off, Taunt, or setup options. To aid against then, Pokemon like Choice Band Crustle, Darmanitan-G, Mimikyu, (both darmg and mimikyu are pretty weak to incineroar idk) and Primarina can all be used to beat the metagames relevant Dark-types. Corsola-G can beat back threats like Arcanine and opposing Primarina in return. Lastly, certain Trick users, like Gardevoir, HP-invested Rotom-A, and Choice Item Mimikyu, can present a problem for Corsola-G, so Pokemon who do not mind being Tricked, or can avoid the move altogether, like Excadrill and Whimscott, can be good partners.

Good stuff, but remember that regional variant names are not truncated. Say, Galarian Darmanitan not Darmanitan-G or Darmanitan-Galar, as well as Alolan Ninetales not Ninetales-A or Ninetales-Alola.

Rest is used to recover HP after boosting and in order to remove status, (P->C; merge) It also is Corsola-G's primary tool for allowing Galarian Corsola to PP stall. Amnesia is used to defend against special attackers lacking boosting moves like Weakness Policy Aegislash and Kyurem. Strength Sap doubles as both a recovery move and an Attack debuffer, (RC) used to beat Pokemon like Dracovish, Choiced Choice item Excadrill, and Darmanitan-G Galarian Darmanitan. It This move (clarity) should be used constantly against non-Trick Choice item Pokemon in order to heal off damage and fish for Cursed Body activations, (RC) or until they can no longer deal significant damage. Night Shade is useful against Trick users like Rotom-A, allowing Corsola-G Galarian Corsola to 3HKO them even after losing Eviolite. It also is used to end a battle quickly, (RC) in order to avoid potential critical hits or secondary effects that stall often falls prey to. Alternatively, Will-O-Wisp can be used to shut down setup Pokemon like Crustle. The Defense EV investment and a Bold nature let Corsola-G Galarian Corsola take a Choice Band-boosted (AH) Fishious Rend from Jolly Dracovish, allowing Corsola-G Galarian Corsola to heal back with Strength Sap. The rest of the EVs are dumped into Special Defense, which aids against Pokemon like Weakness Policy Aegislash. Generally, Corsola-G Galarian Corsola should set up with the respective defensive stat Amnesia when necessary (did you mean something like this?), healing off damage with Strength Sap or Rest, and then use Night Shade or Will-O-Wisp someone on foes until they fall (or the singular version "on the foe until it falls").

Corsola-G Galarian Corsola struggles against Taunt users with significant damage output, like Cinderace and Life Orb Zeraora, or and (this feels more apt in this context) Taunt users with recovery, like Corviknight and Mandibuzz. Therefore, opposing other (other? faster? no adj works too) Taunt users like Whimsicott and Chople Berry Terrakion that can handle the offensive and defensive capabilities of these Pokemon (moved this chunk here) serve as great partners, who can handle the offensive and defensive capabilities of these Pokemon. In return, Corsola-G Galarian Corsola can handle hyper (space) offensive threats such as Darmanitan-G Galarian Darmanitan, Sawk, and Choiced Choice item Excadrill. Dark-types, particularly Bisharp, non-Choice Scarf Hydreigon, Incineroar, and Mandibuzz, (AC) are also particularly threatening against Corsola-G to Galarian Corsola, who as they can hit it super effectively and often carry Knock Off, Taunt, or setup options. To aid against then them, Pokemon like Choice Band Crustle, Choice Band Darmanitan-G Galarian Darmanitan, and Primarina can all be used to beat the metagame's (apostrophe) relevant Dark-types. Corsola-G Galarian Corsola can beat back threats like Arcanine and opposing Primarina in return. Lastly, certain Trick users, like Gardevoir, HP-invested Rotom-A, and Choice Item item Mimikyu, can present a problem for Corsola-G Galarian Corsola, so Pokemon who that do not mind being Tricked, or can avoid the move altogether, like Excadrill and Whimscott Whimsicott, can be good partners. In return, Corsola-G Galarian Corsola ("in return" has been used multiple times here already) can handle Pokemon like Steelix, Darmanitan-G Galarian Darmanitan, and Choice item Haxorus for them.
