  • Cyclizar’s niche is in its ability to pass Substitutes to threatening sweepers, finding use solely on hyper offense teams.
  • Rapid Spin works well for teams weak to entry hazards. It’s a good way to support threats weak to Stealth Rock, like Chien-Pao, Chi-Yu, and Iron Bundle.
  • Draco Meteor can be used over Rapid Spin to do big damage to Koraidon, Miraidon, and Iron Bundle for teams weak to them. However, it has no practical use outside of this.
  • U-turn lets Cyclizar scout for switches and bring its teammates in even when it’s low on HP, giving itself Regenerator recovery and eventually letting it use Shed Tail again.
  • Knock Off provides item removal, which helps its team break past otherwise irritating walls like Toxapex and Dondozo. Offensive Pokemon like Koraidon also really don’t like losing items such as Choice Scarf.
  • Choice Scarf is the preferred item on Cyclizar, as it allows it to easily use Shed Tail for a teammate as soon as it hits the field. However, Heavy-Duty Boots can be used on teams weak to entry hazards.
  • Cyclizar is a vital component on dual screens hyper-offense teams, as Cyclizar can feed its team free Substitutes, giving its teammates an easier time setting up and sweeping in combination with the bulk afforded by dual screens support.
  • Grimmsnarl sets up dual screens reliably, letting Cyclizar use Shed Tail easily and letting the rest of its team go to work.
  • Espathra is an excellent partner, as the free Substitute and dual screens set up by Cyclizar and Grimmsnarl let Espathra take hits and avoid status attempts, making it hard to stop.
  • Swords Dance Flame Charge Koraidon is also a good partner, as with dual screens and a Substitute, it has an easier time setting up while also avoiding the otherwise ruinous Will-O-Wisp from Skeledirge.
  • Double Dance Miraidon loves the Substitute passed to it by Cyclizar, as it makes it significantly harder to revenge kill, allowing Miraidon to take over a game more easily.
  • Other frail sweepers like Nasty Plot Chi-Yu and Calm Mind Flutter Mane also appreciate Cyclizar’s Substitute, as it allows them to freely set up.

move def evs to hp. try to emphasis on how this mon is a one-trick, aka doesnt do anything else other than shed tailing.
mention tera flying chiyu(the nasty plot one) and double dance miraidon as partners
good analysis
1/2
 
I'd mention Outrage as mentioned by Mashing, as a 3rd slash. Being locked sucks, so that's something I'd definitely not recommand to use as a premier option, but it fully utilizes the Jolly Nature and allows you to maximize the damage output of your other moves. Speaking of which, if you are running Draco Meteor, I'd recommand a Timid Nature; Cyclizar's damage output with Rapid Spin and Knock Off is low anyway with these moves, so maximizing the damage of its premier STAB could be interesting. Also, mention why Draco Meteor is your first slash, there are nothing about it. Finally, just one GP thing:

its Shed Tail Cyclizar

QC 2/2 once everything is implemented, well done! (don't hesitate to DM me if you don't agree with some things on the QC, especially the Timid nature, we can discuss about it)

This stuff has been implemented, tysm again Eledyr!

Now the GP Team can drive over (haha I’m so funny)
Hey by the way, me and Eledyr talked on the Outrage thing in DMs and decided it wasn’t worth putting on, as the Outrage lock completely defeats Cyclizar’s purpose of Shed Tailing.
