[SET COMMENTS]

*Physically Offensive Seviper is a niche physically offensive variant that can sweep physical tanks like Deoxys-Speed.
*Swords Dance is Seviper's boosting move of choice and is mandatory for this set, use at least one Swords Dance to boost all of Seviper's Attacks, because they're all physical.
*Crunch threatens Psychic-Types like Deoxys-Speed and Mewtwo, it can also hit Ghost-Types as well.
*Poison Jab is Seviper's best STAB move, hitting Arceus-Fairy and other Fairy-Types, but it will struggle against Zacian-Crowned unless Seviper has Earthquake.
*Aqua Tail can punish Groudon and Seviper's feared Ground-Types, Earthquake can instead be used against Rock and Steel-Types that resist or are immune to Seviper's Poison Jab.
*Tera Dark will buff Crunch and will give Seviper an immunity to it's feared Psychic-Types.
*Tera Poison is an alternative that buffs Poison Jab and hits Fairy-Types Really Hard.
*This set is good against stall teams and physical walls if 3 Swords Dances were used, as All of Seviper's moves have good to great PP, it can use teammates like Rayquaza, which has access to U-Turn, allowing Rayquaza to switch into Seviper, then Seviper uses at least one Swords Dance and starts sweeping.

*Crunch threatens Psychic-Types like Deoxys-Speed and Mewtwo, it can also hit Ghost-Types as well like who?.
*Poison Jab is Seviper's best STAB move, hitting Arceus-Fairy and other Fairy-Types, but it will struggle against Zacian-Crowned unless Seviper has Earthquake.
*Aqua Tail can punish Groudon Arceus-Ground, and unfortunately desolate land exists Seviper's feared Ground-Types, Earthquake can instead be used against Rock and Steel-Types again like who that resist or are immune to Seviper's Poison Jab.
what does the ev spread above do?
*Tera Dark will buff Crunch and will give Seviper an immunity to it's feared Psychic-Types any relevant calcs for the buff?.
*Tera Poison is an alternative that buffs Poison Jab and hits Fairy-Types Really Hard how hard.
*This set is good against stall teams and physical walls if 3 Swords Dances were used, as All of Seviper's moves have good to great PP, it can use teammates like Rayquaza, which has access to U-Turn, allowing Rayquaza to switch into Seviper could specify it switches on the necrozma-dm switch-in to punish it, then Seviper uses at least one Swords Dance and starts sweeping.

Yeah, I'm closing this.

Besides this not being something reserved first to then be written as outlined in the guidelines here, or the analysis having a lot of misinformation that'd lead to a QC reject, Seviper is unranked on the Viability Rankings of the tier to even have an analysis, as its stats and overall traits are far too low for the power level of the metagame, instead being executed better by Eternatus.

Do feel free to contact me if you have further questions!
