[SET COMMENTS]
Hawlucha acts as a threatening setup sweeper, being able to use its combination of Unburden and Swords Dance to clean up games. Substitute is used in order to find setup opportunities against foes such as Alomomola and Ferrothorn as well as Ground-types like Landorus-T and Gliscor, allowing Hawlucha to take advantage of their inability to hit it hard enough to break its Substitute. Hawlucha can also avoid Thunderclap from Raging Bolt and Sucker Punch from Kingambit. 228 Speed EVs are used to let Hawlucha outspeed maximum Speed Volcarona at +2 after Unburden activates. Electric, Grassy, and Psychic Seed are used with their respective Terrains in order to activate Hawlucha's Unburden, doubling its Speed as well as boosting the Base Power of Acrobatics to 110.

Hawlucha fits on hyper offense and bulky offense teams, where its ability to clean up games is appreciated. In order to activate Hawlucha's Unburden, it needs Terrain support from a teammate like Tapu Koko for Electric Terrain, Rillaboom or Tapu Bulu for Grassy Terrain, or Tapu Lele for Psychic Terrain. These Pokemon can also whittle down Hawlucha’s checks such as Gholdengo, Toxapex, and Slowbro. Hawlucha struggles to beat Electric-types such as Zapdos and Tapu Koko, meaning Pokemon that can switch into them such as Iron Treads and Ting-Lu are valued. In return, Hawlucha can turn Gliscor and Alomomola into setup fodder, which is appreciated because they would otherwise come in on Iron Treads and Ting-Lu relatively comfortably. If not yet boosted, Hawlucha struggles to break through Psychic- and Fairy-types such as Tapu Lele, Clefable, and Slowbro. All of these foes survive neutral Acrobatics and threaten Hawlucha with their STAB moves, meaning Steel-types such as Melmetal and Gholdengo are enjoyed. In return, Hawlucha can break through other Steel-types such as Heatran for them. Due to Hawlucha struggling to break through bulky Pokemon such as Gholdengo without boosts, entry hazard setters such as Mega Diancie, Iron Treads, and Landorus-T are beneficial, as their residual damage whittles down Hawlucha's checks over the course of a game. Teammates such as Kingambit and Mega Gyarados are also helpful to beat the aforementioned Gholdengo, with Hawlucha in return beating Fighting-types such as Zamazenta and Great Tusk.

Hawlucha acts as a threatening set-up sweeper, being able to use it's combination of Unburden and Swords Dance to clean up games. Electric, Grassy and Psychic seed are used with their 3 respective terrains in order to activate Hawluchas Unburden, doubling it's speed, as well as boosting the power of Acrobatics to 120bp 110 BP. Substitute is used in order to find set-up opportunities against foes such as Alomomola and Ferrothorn, I think you should mention some Ground-types here too since Grounds this set abuses are quite common right now allowing Hawlucha to take advantage of Toxic and Leech Seed respectively, as well as being able to avoid Thunderclap from Raging Bolt and Sucker Punch from Kingambit (becomes important after CC drops). Please explain the EV spread here.

Hawlucha fits on Hyper Offense and Bulky Offense teams, where it's ability to clean up games is appreciated. In order to activate Hawluchas Unburden it needs terrain support, with Tapu Koko providing Electric Terrain, Rillaboom or Tapu Bulu providing Grassy Terrain and Tapu Lele providing Psychic Terrain. In return Hawlucha can break through common Steel-types such as Ferrothorn, Melmetal and Heatran for them, freeing them up greatly. Hawlucha struggles to beat Electric-types such as Zapdos and Tapu Koko, meaning Pokemon that threaten them such as Choice Scarf Landorus-T and Mega Diancie are appreciated. Are there better examples here? Neither rly wants to come in on them, Diancie doesn't exactly beat Koko and Lando doesnt rly beat Zapdos. In return Hawlucha can turn Gliscor and Alomomola into set-up fodder, which is appreciated as they would otherwise come in on them relatively comfortably. If not yet boosted, Hawlucha struggles to break through Psychic- and Fairy-types such as Tapu-Lele and Tapu-Fini, there are definitely better answers than Tapu Fini, mention Clefable, Slowbro, etc. both of who can survive neutral Acrobatics and threaten Hawlucha with Moonblast, meaning Steel-types such as Melmetal and Gholdengo are enjoyed. In return, Hawlucha can break through other Steel-types such as Heatran for them. Hawlucha also appreciates hazards being off the field in order for it to be able to set Substitute more times, making Rapid Spinners such as Great Tusk and Terapagos good teammates. Since Lucha is primarily an HO mon I think it is best to also mention some HO leads and other HO specific sweepers that it can pair up with on such structures to beat down the opposing team.

Due to Hawlucha struggling to break through bulky Pokemon such as Gholdengo without boosts, hazard setters such as Mega Diancie and Glimmora Glimm is pretty second class as far as leads go these, something like Treads or Lando would be a better mention imo are appreciated, as their residual damage whittles down Hawluchas checks over the course of a game. Teammates such as Kingambit and Mega Gyarados are also appreciated to beat the aforementioned Gholdengo, with Hawlucha in return beating Fighting-types such as Zamazenta and Great Tusk.

Electric, Grassy and Psychic seed are used with their 3 respective terrains in order to activate Hawluchas Unburden, doubling it's speed, as well as boosting the power of Acrobatics to 110 BP. Might want to move this to after all the moves are mentioned Substitute is used in order to find set-up opportunities against foes such as Alomomola and Ferrothorn as well as Ground-types such as Landorus-T and Gliscor, allowing Hawlucha to take advantage of their inability to hit it hard enough to break its Substitute, as well as being able to avoid Thunderclap from Raging Bolt and Sucker Punch from Kingambit. 228 Speed EVs are used to outspeed Max Speed Volcarona at +2 after Unburden activates.

In return Hawlucha can break through common Steel-types such as Ferrothorn, Melmetal and Heatran for them, freeing them up greatly. I think the Lucha gameplan is usually to keep it in the back, so I would instead mention that the terrain setters wear down alot of its checks (Gholdengo, Slowbro, Toxapex) which makes it easier for it to come in late game and clean. Hawlucha struggles to beat Electric-types such as Zapdos and Tapu Koko, meaning Pokemon that switch into them such as Iron Treads and Ting Lu are appreciated. In return Hawlucha can turn Gliscor and Alomomola into set-up fodder, which is appreciated as they would otherwise come in on them relatively comfortably.

Hawlucha also appreciates hazards being off the field in order for it to be able to set Substitute more times, making Rapid Spinners such as Great Tusk and Terapagos good teammates. I think this should be removed, Hawlucha is a very one and done sweeper so having to only take 12.5% once from Rocks is not as big of a deal Due to Hawlucha struggling to break through bulky Pokemon such as Gholdengo without boosts, hazard setters such as Mega Diancie, Iron Treads and Landorus-T are appreciated, as their residual damage whittles down Hawluchas checks over the course of a game. Teammates such as Kingambit and Mega Gyarados are also appreciated to beat the aforementioned Gholdengo, with Hawlucha in return beating Fighting-types such as Zamazenta and Great Tusk.

 I tried to break up the usage of "such as" and "appreciated" to make this read a little better, so you'll see a lot of removals for those two words/phrases
