[SET COMMENTS]
Mega Lopunny is the best Mega Evolution available for Normal teams due to its blistering Speed tier, great offensive prowess, and unique ability in Scrappy. Fake Out lets Mega Lopunny serve as an exceptional revenge killer, dealing with worn down foes like Meowscarada, Barraskewda, and Alolan Raichu. It also puts Pokemon like Keldeo, Cinderace, and Tapu Koko in range of its other attacks safely. With Scrappy, Close Combat notably lets Mega Lopunny take on threats like Mega Sableye, Aegislash, and Gholdengo, threatening the defensive cores of Dark and Steel teams. U-turn enables Mega Lopunny to work as a potent offensive pivot, escaping unfavorable situations against walls like Slowbro and Mega Venusaur while keeping momentum. Triple Axel threatens common switch-ins such as Gliscor and Mandibuzz, while Return is Mega Lopunny's hardest-hitting move against most Psychic- and Fairy-types, such as Tapu Lele and Iron Valiant. Blissey is a great teammate, taking on the likes of Volcarona and Zapdos thanks to its bulk while offering support in the form of Stealth Rock, Toxic, and Teleport. Staraptor switches into Fighting-type attacks from Pokemon like Great Tusk, Buzzwole, and Tapu Bulu, and its access to Defog and U-turn also prolongs Mega Lopunny's longevity and lets it switch in unscathed. Special attackers like Hisuian Zoroark and Porygon-Z are able to break past physical walls Mega Lopunny can't, like Skeledirge, Corviknight, and Slowbro. Hisuian Zoroark also prevents Fighting-types from spamming their STAB moves aimed at Mega Lopunny.

Mega Lopunny is a main-stay on Normal teams due to it's blistering speed, offensive prowess, and unique ability Scrappy, taking on threats like Cinderace, Mega Sableye (? Or Aegis works too) Greninja, and Hisuian Zoroark. Close Combat targets Dark-, Steel-, and Ice-type Pokemon such as Mega Sableye, Kingambit, and Kyurem (would be a great way to mention here too that due to scrappy, it readily deals with Steel and Dark's defensive core, which seems to be more informative than hitting Gambit and Kyu). Fake Out lets Mega Lopunny serve as an exceptional revenge killer, dealing with worn down opponents like Meowscarada, Barraskewda, and Alolan Raichu. U-turn enables Mega Lopunny as a potent offensive pivot, escaping unfavorable situations against Rotom-W, Slowbro, and Great Tusk, bringing in more suited teammates for the matchups. Triple Axel threatens common switch-ins such as Landorus-TGliscor, Mega Altaria (you click TA regardless vs Dragon, unless you're scared of RH Chomp), and Mandibuzz (or something else, Amoon really isnt common)Amoonguss while Return is another STAB option with a great base power, dealing overall great neutral damage against Iron Valiant, Tapu Koko, and Crobat (only resides on poison, which has better swap-ins). Ditto is heavily appreciated due to it's ability to shutdown setup sweepers like Mega Altaria, Mega Charizard X, and Keldeo (shut down isnt quite the right word for it, but you dissuade them from setting up). Blissey is a great teammate due to it's bulk, taking on Volcarona, GreninjaTapu Lele, and Walking Wake (odd examples, lele has Psyshock too. Perhaps something else works?) as well as it's utility support in the form of Stealth Rock, Toxic, and Thunder Wave. Staraptor's highly valued as a switch-in against Great Tusk, Buzzwole, and Tapu Bulu and due to it's Defog support, prolonging Mega Lopunny's longevity as a pivot (its not quite a pivot, maybe a diff word be better?).

Also missing HZoro and P-Z as special attackers / wallbreakers that overcome physical walls for it)

The former's immunity Hisuian Zoroark also prevents Fighting-types from spamming their STAB moves aimed at Mega Lopunny on account of its partial Ghost typing. No need to worry about repeating Hisuian Zoroark, and I also think this gets the point across easier since now readers don't have to look back to see what Pokemon you are referring to.
