All-out attacking Zamazenta is a fearsome wallbreaker thanks to its great base Attack stat alongside colorful coverage, allowing it to hit a large portion of the metagame for tons of damage. Its defensive profile also allows it to stick around as a check to Dark-types like Kingambit and Hisuian Samurott. Crunch complements Close Combat well, 2HKOing Ghost- and Psychic-types like offensive Gholdengo, Dragapult, and Galarian Slowking that easily take Close Combat. Stone Edge snipes Moltres and Zapdos attempting to inflict a Flame Body burn or a Static paralysis onto Zamazenta while taking on two offensive checks in the form of Volcarona and Mega Charizard Y. Ice Fang allows Zamazenta to majorly damage Gliscor and Landorus-T, while Heavy Slam lets Zamazenta deal with troubling Fairy-types trying to use it as a way to enter the field such as Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant. Heavy-Duty Boots give Zamazenta more chances to throw off its powerful attacks.

Zamazenta fits well on balance and offensive teams alike, threatening and being able to come in on metagame staples like Kingambit, Hisuian Samurott, and Mega Tyranitar. Physically defensive walls such as Great Tusk and Toxapex can shrug off hits from Zamazenta all day long, so a partner that threatens them such as Tapu Lele is a nice addition to let Zamazenta force progress. Additionally, Tapu Lele can set Future Sight, preventing these checks from switching in as easily. In return, Zamazenta smashes Steel-types that can parry Tapu Lele's attacks like Assault Vest Melmetal. Zamazenta greatly appreciates entry hazard setters such as Hisuian Samurott and Landorus-T that force answers like Toxapex and opposing Landorus-T to take damage every time they attempt to check Zamazenta. It also appreciates Hisuian Samurott scaring the aforementioned Ghost- and Psychic-types away from Zamazenta as well as Landorus-T threatening Poison-types like the aforementioned Toxapex. Kingambit traps and removes Dragapult and Galarian Slowking for Zamazenta as well as removing items like Leftovers or Heavy-Duty Boots from shared checks like Corviknight or physically defensive Toxapex to make Zamazenta's life easier. Finally, Steel-types like Gholdengo and Heatran form a great core with Zamazenta, as they are able to beat down Zamazenta's walls like Galarian Slowking and defensive Gholdengo while taking on threatening Fairy-types like Choice Scarf Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant, protecting Zamazenta from being revenge killed as easily.

All-out attacking Zamazenta is a fearsome wallbreaker that fits well on balance and offensive teams alike. Its great base 120 Attack attack stat alongside colorful coverage allow it to hit a large portion of the meta for tons of damage, while its defensive profile allows it to either stick around as a check to Dark-types like Kingambit and Hisuian Samurott on balanced teams or act as a one-time check to them on more offensively-oriented teams this is a bit confusing and its not clear how zama switches from long-term to short just through a different team comp. Crunch complements Close Combat well, 2HKOing Ghost- and Psychic-types like offensive Gholdengo, Dragapult, and Galarian Slowking that easily take Close Combat. Stone Edge snipes Moltres and Zapdos attempting to inflict a Flame Body burn or a Static paralysis onto Zamazenta while taking on two offensive checks in the form of Volcarona and Mega Charizard Y. Ice Fang allows Zamazenta to majorly damage Gliscor and Landorus-T, two otherwise solid checks to it, filler while Heavy Slam lets Zamazenta deal with troubling Fairy-types trying to use it as an entry point such as Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant. Heavy-Duty Boots gift Zamazenta more entry points and longevity to allow it to fulfill both its offensive and defensive duties.

Physically defensive walls such as Great Tusk and Toxapex can shrug off hits from Zamazenta all day long, so a partner that threatens them such as Tapu Lele is a nice addition to let Zamazenta force progress. Additionally, Tapu Lele can set Future Sight, making Zamazenta's aforementioned answers reticent of switching in lest they be destroyed by the set-up Future Sight preventing these checks from switching in as easily since they're destroyed by Future Sight easier to read. In return, Zamazenta smashes Steel-types that can parry Tapu Lele's attacks like Assault Vest Melmetal. Zamazenta greatly appreciates entry hazard setters such as Hisuian Samurott and Landorus-T that force answers like Toxapex and opposing Landorus-T pex CAN work but u should have a mon that rarely runs boots too to take damage every time they attempt to check Zamazenta, making them far easier to break through. It also appreciates Hisuian Samurott scaring the aforementioned Ghost- and Psychic-types away from Zamazenta as well as Landorus-T threatening treacherous Poison-types. Kingambit traps and removes Will-o-Wisp Dragapult and Galarian Slowking for Zamazenta as well as removing items such as? from shared checks like? to make Zamazenta's life easier. Finally, Steel-types like Gholdengo and Heatran form a great core with Zamazenta as they are able to beat down Zamazenta's walls like Spikes Gliscor Galarian Slowking how do either of these beat glisc without balloon and defensive Gholdengo while taking on threatening Fairy-types like Choice Scarf Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant could mention how they prevent zama from getting RKed as easily.

All-out attacking Zamazenta is a fearsome wallbreaker that fits well on balance and offensive teams alike <= second half of this sentence fits more on second paragraph, merge into this => sentence instead. Its great base Attack stat alongside colorful coverage allow it to hit a large portion of the meta for tons of damage, while its defensive profile allows it to stick around as a check to Dark-types like Kingambit and Hisuian Samurott. Crunch complements Close Combat well, 2HKOing Ghost- and Psychic-types like offensive Gholdengo, Dragapult, and Galarian Slowking that easily take Close Combat. Stone Edge snipes Moltres and Zapdos attempting to inflict a Flame Body burn or a Static paralysis onto Zamazenta while taking on two offensive checks in the form of Volcarona and Mega Charizard Y. Ice Fang allows Zamazenta to majorly damage Gliscor and Landorus-T, while Heavy Slam lets Zamazenta deal with troubling Fairy-types trying to use it as an entry point <= i dislike words like these because new players won't understand them. explain in full what you mean, or just use a different word such as Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant. Heavy-Duty Boots gift Zamazenta more entry points <= again, explain and longevity to allow it to fulfill both its offensive and defensive duties filler.
remember who your target audience is

here you can have the original first sentence, have a line about what zama fits on, also helps you reframe your thinking when giving teammate examples so that you dont give bad partners by accident Physically defensive walls such as Great Tusk and Toxapex can shrug off hits from Zamazenta all day long, so a partner that threatens them such as Tapu Lele is a nice addition to let Zamazenta force progress. Additionally, Tapu Lele can set Future Sight, preventing these checks from switching in as easily. In return, Zamazenta smashes Steel-types that can parry Tapu Lele's attacks like Assault Vest Melmetal. Zamazenta greatly appreciates entry hazard setters such as Hisuian Samurott and Landorus-T that force answers like Toxapex and opposing Landorus-T to take damage every time they attempt to check Zamazenta, making them far easier to break through <= some filler here "take damage every time they attempt to check zama" maybe cut down. It also appreciates Hisuian Samurott scaring the aforementioned Ghost- and Psychic-types away from Zamazenta as well as Landorus-T threatening Poison-types like pex?. Kingambit traps and removes Dragapult and Galarian Slowking for Zamazenta as well as removing items like Leftovers or Heavy-Duty Boots from shared checks like Corviknight or physically defensive Toxapex to make Zamazenta's life easier. Finally, Steel-types like Gholdengo and Heatran form a great core with Zamazenta as they are able to beat down Zamazenta's walls like Galarian Slowking and defensive Gholdengo while taking on threatening Fairy-types like Choice Scarf Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant, protecting Zamazenta from being revenge-killed as easily.
