[SET COMMENTS]
Galarian Mr. Mime fills a vital role for Ice teams as an effective entry hazard remover that can also apply offensive pressure and speed control. Freeze-Dry is an excellent STAB option that allows it to beat Water-types like Pelipper, Dracovish, and Barraskewda outside of rain. Psychic serves as a secondary STAB move for Poison-types like Galarian Weezing, Toxapex, and Salazzle, but Trick can be run over it to cripple defensive tanks, such as Galarian Corsola, Snorlax, and Corviknight. Focus Blast is an excellent coverage option for handling Steel-types like Excadrill, Ferrothorn, and Duraludon. Lastly, Rapid Spin allows it to remove entry hazards. Maximum Special Attack and Speed EVs are run to maximize damage output, while allowing Galarian Mr. Mime to outspeed opposing Choice Scarf users like Hydreigon and Galarian Darmanitan.

The ability to remove entry hazards is incredibly beneficial for offensive teammates like Galarian Darmanitan, Cloyster, and Weavile to keep them as healthy as possible. Galarian Mr. Mime greatly struggles against Steel-types that aren't weak to Focus Blast, like Aegislash and Corviknight. Galarian Darmanitan is an excellent Choice Scarf partner that can handle these threats, as well as using U-turn to pivot Galarian Mr. Mime in safely. Weavile serves as an excellent option against Ghost-types which are immune to Rapid Spin, like Galarian Corsola and Runerigus. Mamoswine is a solid wallbreaking teammate, capable of beating Snorlax and Torkoal. Piloswine synergizes very well with Galarian Mr. Mime defensively, being able to serve as a defensive pivot against Charizard and Tyranitar. Froslass is a solid partner for hyper offense teams, being able to lessen the entry hazard pressure on Galarian Mr. Mime through Taunt, while also weakening opposing teams with Spikes damage.

Talk about Excadrill as something Focus Blast hits over Ferrothorn. I'm pretty sure it bounces off of Ferrothorn either way and you struggle with Protect, Leftovers, and Leech Seed recovery.

Snorlax should be mentioned for Trick.

Talk about Galarian Darmanitan's synergy with Galarian Mr. Mime as they are both Choice Scarf users. Galarian Darmanitan can also beat the Steel-type Pokemon that Galarian Mr. Mime struggles with too, so talk about that and just not talk about Lapras altogether. It's rather shaky on hyper offense anyways.

Talk about Froslass as a team option, Taunt is great for denying hazards to lessen the pressure on Galarian Mr. Mime and Spikes are nice because Galarian Mr. Mime as an offensive Pokemon. It fits on hyper offense too, the main place where you should be using Galarian Mr. Mime over Avalugg.

- would make trick/psychic move #1, also slash trick first
- make mr. mime screen cleaner, naturally that means removing vanilluxe as a teammate
- would mention toxapex as a target of psychic as well
- mention ferrothorn as a target of focus blast
- mention mamoswine as a teammate & piloswine as a defensive pivot
