Monotype Porygon2

Porygon2 @ Eviolite
Ability: Download
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Bold Nature
- Hidden Power Fire
- Ice Beam
- Discharge
- Recover

Normal-type balance teams rely on Porygon2 to wall physical attackers like Mega Aerodactyl and Choice Scarf Tapu Bulu throughout games. Impeccable coverage in BoltBeam and Hidden Power Fire lets it check a plethora of defensive threats like Ferrothorn, Mantine, and Gliscor, and Download boosts its Special Attack when the foe has a lower Special Defense than Defense. It also checks an extremely massive threat in Mega Scizor. Porygon2 is most optimally run with Chansey and defensive Staraptor, creating a defensive core that many types struggle to break through. Ditto complements it nicely as well, being able to revenge kill setup sweepers like Mega Gallade and discourage setup in general that takes advantage of Porygon2. Wallbreakers like Mega Lopunny and Diggersby are great as well, helping Porygon2 by taking down walls like Mega Sableye that Porygon2 struggles with.

-I'd add in some (2) examples of physical attackers that p2 can switch in on and heal off the damage always, to strengthen your statement that it's a physical wall. Remove M-Scizor from the first sentence and make it its own sentence after talking about its coverage
-Specifically say "Boltbeam coverage with Hidden power Fire lets it check a plethora of blah blah while Download boosts is Special Attack when blah blah, further strengthening its attacks"
-When you refer to raptor + chansey + p2 make sure you say defensive core
-In the ditto sentence, talk about dissuading setup Pokemon along with revenge KOing them
-Call MLop and Digg wallbreakers specifically

I don't think you're supposed to talk about a different set than the one you're presenting so I'd remove the last sentence completely.
