- Rock Slide / Focus Blast
- U-turn

[SET COMMENTS]
With a Choice Scarf, Landorus becomes a devastating revenge killer for Flying teams, being able to outspeed and check the likes of Raging Bolt, the Ogerpon formes, and Volcarona. Earth Power handily removes Steel-, Fire-, and Electric-types such as Archaludon, Iron Moth, and Raging Bolt. Sludge Wave checks the Ogerpon formes after minor chip damage as well as Fairy-types like Iron Valiant and Primarina. Rock Slide can enable Landorus to handily deal with +1 Volcarona along with Flying-types such as Moltres and Articuno, while Focus Blast with a Timid nature can deal with Air Balloon threats like Iron Treads and Heatran along with Ice- and Dark-types such as Kyurem and non-Choice Scarf Darkrai. Lastly, U-turn can keep up momentum for Flying teams along with checking Hoopa-U.

Landorus enjoys teammates like Moltres and Skarmory that can come in on faster threats like Triple Axel from Choice Scarf Meowscarada and Ice Shard from Mamoswine and Weavile and pressure them back with Flamethrower and Body Press, respectively. Moltres can further assist Landorus by threatening Skarmory and Corviknight and using U-turn to pivot it in. Skarmory can reliably set entry hazards like Spikes to wear down would-be switch-ins such as Swampert and Assault Vest Gallade and use Whirlwind to prevent setup from the likes of Belly Drum Azumarill. Corviknight can check Flutter Mane for Landorus along with providing Defog support to prevent Landorus from being worn down by Stealth Rock. Gliscor set entry hazards while being able to use Toxic to put checks to Landorus like Mandibuzz, Sinistcha, and Ting-Lu on a timer. Articuno can check Water- and opposing Flying-types such as Walking Wake, Pelipper, and Gliscor with Freeze-Dry while taking Ice Beam from threats such as Latios and Greninja comfortably. Dragonite is a strong physical wallbreaker that is capable of removing special walls like Blissey and Ting-Lu while apprecating Landorus's ability to removal physical walls like Hippowdon and Galarian Weezing. With Dragon Dance and Roost, Dragonite can also serve as a solid gameplan against Water-type threats such Barraskewda. Assault Vest Tornadus-T can sponge special attacks from threats like Choice Scarf Spectrier and Hisuian Zoroark and use Knock Off to deal with them as well as removing Assault Vest from threats like Gallade and and Primarina.

[SET]
- Fix the ev capitalization in spa. SpA
- Space out the / in the natures

[SET COMMENTS]
- Specify that we remove the ogerpon formes with sludge wave after hazard chip because its a poor ass roll to ohko without the chip
- Specify that when dropping rock slide for Focus Blast, your pairing it with a timid nature
- add non-Choice Scarf infront of Darkrai as Scarfrai is still an relevant set.
- Add U-turn sentence, actually important on this set.

"Landorus enjoys teammates like Moltres and Skarmory that can come in on faster Ice-types like Choice Scarf Meowscarada along with Ice Shard from Mamoswine and Weavile and in return can pressure them back with Flamethrower and Body Press respectively."
- it only turns into a ice type when its clicking triple axel so you have to specify it or change the sentence around to just say they come in on meowscarada's triple axel + mamo's ice shard. I would also mention Skarmory phazing out setup sweepers like Belly Drum Azumarill which otherwise just gives Landorus and basically the entirely of Flying hell.

- I would also mention Corviknight being able to pivot lando in safely against Gholdengo so it can remove it.
- I would also mention the DD + Roost Dnite set being able a great vs the Water mu for Landorus because right now your teammate section is just omega rolled over by water especially barraskewda. If you dont want to add DD + ROOST Dnite then add Gyarados as a teammate instead.

QC 1/2 well done

- you didn't space the / in the natures in the set part
- capitalize the B in the first instance of raging bolt
- i dont think weezing is the best example for sludge wave checks, maybe alola ninetales, enam, or prim is better

- put a space between wear and down in the set comments part
- might be worth mentioning how landorus supports some of the teammates in return in the teammates section, its a pretty straight forward set though so no pressure i guess
- also might be worth considering putting twave gyarados to come in on physical attackers + slow down faster stuff with twave. again no pressure cuz this is kinda mid, up to you

2/2 after
