- Scald
- Slack Off

Galarian Slowbro's decent defensive capabilities as well as Slack Off and Regenerator allow it to act as a late-game sweeper that is very hard to KO. Its unique Poison / Psychic typing lets it switch in and set up against common Pokemon like non-Choice Specs Sylveon, non-Swords Dance Cobalion, and Choice Scarf Mienshao. Shuca Berry works well with its coverage, as common Dark-types like Zarude and Incineroar do not like switching in to take Sludge Bomb and Scald, leaving only Ground-types to be lured in. Calm Mind lets it act as a potent late-game sweeper able to blow a hole into opposing teams. Sludge Bomb hits most of the metagame with the added benefit of a chance to poison, helping to wear down potential checks. Scald is good coverage to hit Steel- and Rock-type Pokemon like Steelix and Rhyperior while also threatening potential switch-ins with a burn. Galarian Slowbro appreciates teammates like Darmanitan, Magnezone, and Dragalge that force in and wear down Seismitoad, one of its best checks. Teammates weak to Ground-types like Raikou and Rhyperior make use of Galarian Slowbro's ability to lure in opposing Ground-types. Partners like Zarude that handle setup sweepers such as Psyshock Reuniclus and Calm Mind Suicune and defeat them one-on-one alongside Galarian Slowbro also work well.

Slowbro-G's great physical bulk, typing which offers valuable resistances, and access to recovery in the form of Slack Off and Regenerator allow it to act as a strong physical wall late-game sweeper that is very hard to KO in the RU metagame. Slowbro-G's unique typing in Psychic- and Poison- lets it switch in and take on common Pokemon like non Choice Sylveon, non-SD Cobalion, and Mienshao. Calm Mind gives Slowbro-G the ability to act as a potent late game sweeper. Sludge Bomb is the STAB move of choice for hitting most of the metagame with the added benefit of a notable chance to poison, which can help wear down solid checks like Seismitoad. Scald provides good coverage to hit Steel- and Rock- Pokemon like Steelix and Rhyperior which Sludge Bomb would otherwise prove uneffective against [thats obvious, u dont need to say it] while also threatening potential switch-ins or revenge killers with a nasty burn. Slack Off provides Slowbro-G a reliable form of recovery without having to switch in and out. Dark- types like Umbreon and Zarude appreciate Slowbro-G as as a partner for handling Fighting- and Fairy- moves which would otherwise prove effective against them. Certain Pokemon like Suicune and Porygon2 have their usefulness greatly reduced upon the setup of Toxic Spikes and as such make strong use of Slowbro-G's Poison- typing. I don't think mentioning that it's a TSpikes immunity is relevant here.

some quick changes, but that isnt all

You need to talk more about it being a late game sweeper than about its defensive utility; the primary role of this set is to win games rather than serving as a fighting-type check (it kind of can, but moreso uses weak fighting types as setup chances. you dont wanna be switching ur setup sweeper into a LO Mienshao for instance).

mention:
- teammates that help wear down Seismitoad, such as any fire type, dragalge, electrics
- teammates that benefit from you eliminating the other team's ground type with scald + shuca
- teammates that can beat other setup sweepers that might set up alongside u and win 1v1, such as psyshock reuni and cm suicune (which wins due to pressure)

Shuca Berry allows Slowbro-G to lure in Ground- types that are tempted to switch in.

talk about how this works well with its attacking moves; you’re only weak to ground and dark. your attacks scare off the 2 common dark types, zarude (weak to sludge bomb) and incin (weak to scald), and shuca berry lets u beat ground types

Slack Off provides Slowbro-G a reliable form of recovery without having to switch in and out. Dark- types like Umbreon and Zarude appreciate Slowbro-G as as a partner for handling Fighting- and Fairy- moves which would otherwise prove effective against them.

i’d remove these 2 sentences, first is p obvious, and the second focuses on other teammates helped by slowbro-g. you arent wrong about that, but since it’s the spotlight let’s keep the focus on what helps slowbro-galar (like the fires u mention next sentence).

some minor grammar stuff but i’ll leave that for gp, sorry

After you do all this check if you’re under 1000 characters, which spotlights required

then qc 1/1

I'll have a look at this once you implement it to see if there's still some stuff I could cut down.
(also please don't ever use a space between - and type)

Guess there wasn't much else to change. Can't go below 1098 characters, though.
GP 1/1 once implemented!
