[SET COMMENTS]
Zamazenta is an extremely fast, dangerous wallbreaker that takes full advantage of the relative scarcity of bulky, Fighting-resistant Pokemon in the metagame. Many teams are reliant on Melmetal to deal with physical attackers, often leaving them unprepared to switch into Zamazenta's powerful Close Combat. Its Speed tier gives it the jump over threats such as Galarian Darmanitan-Z and Mewtwo, and it has the bulk to easily survive common priority moves like Refrigerate Kyurem-B's Extreme Speed, which makes it challenging to revenge kill. Earthquake is an important coverage move that hits Eternatus, Toxapex, and Aegislash, and U-turn is used to retain momentum, scout for Dynamax, and chip down Zamazenta's checks so that it can break through them later. Knock Off hits Ghost-types like Lunala and Gourgeist and provides utility by removing items like Rocky Helmet and Leftovers. Alternatively, Bolt Beak can be run for Golisopod and Gyarados and as powerful neutral coverage against a range of targets, particularly Zacian. Mach Punch is a niche option in the last slot that can revenge kill weakened opponents and helps to check setup sweepers like Quiver Dance Kyurem-W, but it lacks utility overall and is not very good to be locked into.

It's important to pair Zamazenta with a Pokemon that can handle an Imposter user that comes in against it. Depending on Zamazenta's coverage, good options include Golisopod, bulky Ghost-types like Gourgeist and Dusclops, and Zacian. Zamazenta also appreciates teammates that can take advantage of the physical walls that it pivots out against. In particular, powerful special attackers like Lunala and Reshiram can fill this role effectively. Being locked into Close Combat is dangerous against Ghost-type setup sweepers such as Dragapult, Necrozma-DW, and Marshadow. A Prankster user such as Melmetal, Umbreon, or Eternatus can prevent these threats from sweeping your team and allow Zamazenta to use Close Combat more liberally.

FC mons into range of CC, chips psychics as well. In the last slot, Knock Off can be used to hit Ghost-types like Lunala and Dragapult knock utility is good too for deleting Leftovers and Helmet, or Bolt Beak can be run for Golisopod and as powerful neutral coverage against a range of targets examples, 2hkoing zacian is really nice, also random stuff like levi stuff and gyara. Mention Mach Punch?

Zamazenta is an extremely fast, dangerous wallbreaker that takes full advantage of the relative scarcity of bulky Fighting resists in the metagame. Many teams are reliant on Melmetal to deal with physical attackers, often leaving them unprepared to switch into Zamazenta's powerful Close Combats. Its speed tier and bulk make it challenging to revenge kill (I don't want to start stating obvious things, but this sentence kinda sticks out to me. It is simple and to-the-point, but almost too much so, so I think a relevant example could be good here. Something like Kyu-B not being able to RK it). Earthquake is an important coverage move that hits Eternatus, Toxapex, and Aegislash, and U-turn is used to retain momentum, scout for Dynamax, and chip Zamazenta's checks into range to be KOed (KOed by who? Zama itself, later on? Or teammates?). Knock Off hits Ghost-types like Lunala and Dragapult (Dragapult outspeeds Zama and likely won't be switching into its attacks unless it's desperate. I say remove this and only mention Lunala or give a different example like Aegi or Dusclops) and provides utility by removing items like Rocky Helmet and Leftovers. Alternatively, Bolt Beak can be run for Golisopod and Gyarados and as powerful neutral coverage against a range of targets, including Zacian and Levitate Steel-types (Levi Steels are not common and you hit them with CC anyway. This should be removed). Mach Punch is a niche option in the last slot that can revenge kill a weakened Zacian-C (Its a 4HKO vs Zacian-C so it'd have to be really weak to die to this. Maybe mention a setup sweeper this could actually help against, like Kyu-W) or Zeraora and helps to check setup sweepers, but is generally not worth using due to its weaker power and isn't a great move to be locked into (you don't have to use this wording, but you should mention the move's negatives).

In particular, powerful special attackers like Lunala or Reshiram can fill this role effectively. Being locked into Close Combat is dangerous against Ghost-type setup sweepers such as Dragapult, Necrozma-Dawn-Wings, and Marshadow (optional: especially since Zama in unable to Dynamax and remove choice locks like other breakers can). A Prankster user such as Melmetal, Umbreon or Eternatus can prevent these threats from sweeping your team and allow you to click Close Combat more liberally.
