[SET COMMENTS]
With an Assault Vest, Primarina leverages its natural special bulk to serve an incredible role on Fairy teams as a special tank, being able to take hits from the likes of Gholdengo, Iron Moth, and Landorus. Surf hits problematic Fire-types for Fairy such as Heatran and Iron Moth while also being able to force out Gholdengo and Spectrier before it uses Calm Mind. Moonblast hits Water-resistant foes like Hydrapple and Kyurem. Flip Turn gives Primarina a solid pivoting tool to switch out on threats it cannot handle, such as Alolan Muk, Articuno, and Hisuian Goodra. Finally, Psychic Noise allows Primarina to hit Poison-types like Amoonguss, Toxapex, and Okidogi. The EV spread used lets Primarina outspeed threats like Adamant Kingambit and Azumaril. The alternative EV spread is a bulkier set that outspeeds Corviknight and makes it more reliable against threats like Choice Specs Latios and Flutter Mane.

With Primarina's limited recovery options, Hatterene provides excellent support, being able to keep entry hazards off the field and allowing Primarina to come in safely. Hatterene can also spread paralysis against threats like Gholdengo, Tornadus-T, and Gallade using Nuzzle. Klefki can provide hazard and dual screens support, allowing Primarina to combat special walls like Alolan Muk and Hisuian Goodra. Clefable can provide hazard support in Stealth Rock, along with Wish support to heal Primarina. Flutter Mane appreciates Primarina's neutrality to Steel-type attacks from the likes of Choice Scarf Gholdengo, while Primarina appreciates Flutter Mane's strong movepool that can hinder problematic threats like Articuno, Ogerpon-H, and Raging Bolt. Flutter Mane also enjoys Primarina's Flip Turn to grant it safe entry. Primarina values physical Iron Valiant's ability to remove special walls like Blissey, Galarian Slowking, and Clodsire. In return, Iron Valiant takes advantage of Primarina's ability to take on threats like Choice Scarf Latios, Choice Specs Dragapult, and Choice Scarf Enamorus. Mimikyu appreciates Primarina's pivoting to grant it safe entry and setup opportunities. In exchange, Primarina welcomes Mimikyu's ability to remove threats like Flutter Mane and Iron Hands. Choice Scarf Enamorus can remove fasters threats like Sneasler and Iron Valiant and provide Healing Wish support.

Draining Kiss can be used over Psychic Noise to grant Primarina a form of recovery. However, this comes with the cost of being walled by Poison-types like Toxapex and Amoonguss. Alternatively, Primarina can run Psychic Noise with Liquid Voice, which can block the healing of Dark-types like Alolan Muk, but this restricts its coverage and allows Water Absorb Clodsire to wall it.

With an Assault Vest Primarina leverages its solid natural special bulk to serve an incredible roll role in Fairy teams as a special tank being able to take hits from the likes of Gholdengo and Iron Moth (can add Dragapult and Landorus/Spectrier in this). Surf hits problematic Fire- and Ground-types for Fairy such as Heatran, Iron Moth, (and is strong enough to force out Gholdengo and Non-CM Spectrier too) Excadrill, and Iron Treads. Moonblast serves as Primarina's strongest attack along with hitting would be Water resists like Hydrapple and Kyurem. Flip Turn gives Primarina a solid pivoting tool to switch out on threats it cannot handle such as Alolan Muk, Articuno, and Hisuian Goodra. Finally Psychic Noise allows for Primarina to hit Poison-types like Amoonguss, Toxapex, and Okidogi super effectively and deny their healing crippling them. The EV spread used allows for Primarina to get the jump on threatens like Adamant Kingambit and Azumaril.(add about the second ev spread, its faster than Corv, but now never falters vs stronger attacks like Specs Luster Purge of Latios or Flutter Man)

With Primarina's limited recovery options, Hatterene serves as an excellent support being able to keep hazards off the field allowing for Primarina to come in safely. Hatterene can also spread Paralysis with Nuzzle making threats like (come back to this if I can figure (fill this in, probably Gholdengo, Torn-T, mayyybe Gallade too?)). Klefki can provide hazard and screen support allowing for Primarina to triumphan over special walls like Alolan Muk and Hisuian Goodra. Clefable can similar provide hazard support along with being able to use Wish to heal Primarina should the oppertunity opportunity arrive. Flutter Mane appreciates Primarina's neutrality to Steel-type attacks from the likes of Scizor (its too frail for it) and Choice Scarf Gholdeno while Primarina appreciates Flutter Mane's strong coverage movepool being able to remove problematic threats like Articuno, Ogerpon-H, and Raging Bolt (FM loves the slow pivots Prim provides, too). Primarina appreciates physical Iron Valiant being able to remove Special walls like Blissey, Galarian Slowking, and Clodsire while Iron Valiant appreciates Primarina being able to take on threats like Choice Scarf Latios, Choice Specs Dragapult, and Choice Scarf Enamorus. Mimikyu appreciates Iron Valiant being able to use Flip turn to give it safe entry and setup while Iron Valiant appreciates Mimikyu being able to remove threats like Flutter Mane and Iron Hands. (huh)
(Add Scarf Enamorus, Healing Wish)


Add other options
Draining Kiss for healing, since you can technically just flip turn to hatte for Pex and AMoonguss. But, the preventing healing and getting the last bit of damage vs pex might be how Fairy can break through. Similarly, you can just use liquid voice if you want the heal block, but its waay weaker

Hatterene can also spread Paralysis with Nuzzle making threats like against threats such as Gholdengo, Tornadus-T, and Gallade via Nuzzle. Klefki can provide hazard and screen support allowing for Primarina to triumphan triumph is a little dramatic since the 1v1 with muk is still not super ideal even behind screens over combat special walls like Alolan Muk and Hisuian Goodra. Clefable can provide similar provide it has rocks and klefki has spikes, they arent really similar, just hazard support is fine hazard support in Stealth Rock, along with being able to use Wish to heal Primarina should the opportunity arrive. Flutter Mane appreciates Primarina's neutrality to Steel-type attacks from the likes of Scizor and Choice Scarf Gholdengo while Primarina appreciates Flutter Mane's strong coverage movepool being able to remove problematic threats like Articuno, Ogerpon-H, and Raging Bolt.

Draining Kiss can be used over [move] (i dont know what this is supposed to be over) grants Primarina a form of recovery, however this comes with the cost of being walled by Poison-types like Toxapex and Amoonguss. since Primarina can Flip Turn out against Poison-types like Toxapex and Amoonguss but can make Primarina struggle into said bulky Poison-types that resist both of Primarina's STABs this sentence doenst really make sense. you say draining kiss can be used as recovery since primarina can flip turn out of threats, my assumption is that you're trying to say that primarina can run draining kiss and just flip turn out of threats if it lacks the coverage to beat them, but i think this sentence in general is just too complicated, it just feels like youre forcing it to be more flowery. Similarly, Primarina can run Psychic Noise with Liquid Voice which can block the healing of Dark-types like Alolan Muk but restricts its coverage and allows Water Absorb Clodsire to wall it. gives up coverage along with making Primarina unable to touch Water Absorb Clodsire.


ill check again after you implement, tag me when you do :)!

Surf hits problematic Fire-types for Fairy such as Heatran and Iron Moth, while also being able to force out Gholdengo and Spectrier before it uses a Calm Mind (provides more clarity, the previous version felt like even Gholdengo could use cm). Moonblast serves as Primarina's strongest attack, hitting would be Water resists like Hydrapple and Kyurem. Flip Turn gives Primarina a solid pivoting tool to switch out on threats it cannot handle, (AC) such as Alolan Muk, Articuno, and Hisuian Goodra. Finally, (AC) Psychic Noise allows for Primarina to hit Poison-types like Amoonguss, Toxapex, and Okidogi. The EV spread used lets Primarina outspeed threats like Adamant Kingambit and Azumaril. The alternative EV spread is a bulkier set that outspeeds Corviknight and makes it more reliable against threats like Choice Specs Latios and Flutter Mane. (add this to other options alongside the alternate ev spread)

With Primarina's limited recovery options, Hatterene serves as an excellent support, (AC) being able to keep hazards off the field and allowing for Primarina to come in safely. Hatterene can also spread Paralysis paralysis against threats such as like (preventing the repetition of "such as") Gholdengo, Tornadus-T, and Gallade via using Nuzzle. Klefki can provide hazard and screen support, (AC) allowing Primarina to combat special walls like Alolan Muk and Hisuian Goodra. Clefable can provide hazard support in Stealth Rock, along with being able to use Wish support to heal Primarina should the opportunity arrive. Flutter Mane appreciates Primarina's neutrality to Steel-type attacks from the likes of Choice Scarf Gholdengo, (AC) while Primarina appreciates Flutter Mane's strong movepool being able to remove which can hinder (remove is a bit overkill here) problematic threats like Articuno, Ogerpon-H, and Raging Bolt. Flutter Mane also appreciates enjoys (overuse of the word "appreciates") Primarina's Flip Turn to grant it safe entry. Primarina appreciates values physical Iron Valiant's (AA) ability being able to remove Special special walls like Blissey, Galarian Slowking, and Clodsire. (AP) while In return, (the sentence structure "X appreciates Y while Y appreciates X" has been overused so the sentences are split to avoid repetition) Iron Valiant appreciates takes advantage of Primarina's (AA) ability being able to take on threats like Choice Scarf Latios, Choice Specs Dragapult, and Choice Scarf Enamorus. Mimikyu appreciates cherishes Primarina's (AA) pivoting being able to use Flip turn to give grant it safe entry and setup opportunities. (AP) In exchange, while Primarina appreciates welcomes Mimikyu being able to remove threats like Flutter Mane and Iron Hands. Choice Scarf Enamorus provides solid incredible (solid was used once before, this is to avoid repetition) support as it can being able to remove fasters threats like Sneasler and Iron Valiant and along with providing provide (simple present tense implemented) Healing Wish support should Primarina need it.

Implemented.
hey my apologies for the inconvenience but you can revert the spread back to the way it was namely -

EVs: 80 HP / 252 SpA / 116 SpD / 60 Spe OR 80 HP / 252 SpA / 176 Spe

(at the end of the first paragraph)
The EV spread used lets Primarina outspeed threats like Adamant Kingambit and Azumaril. The alternative EV spread is a bulkier set that outspeeds Corviknight and makes it more reliable against threats like Choice Specs Latios and Flutter Mane.

(from other options)
An alternative EV spread of 80 HP / 252 SpA / 176 Spe is a bulkier set that outspeeds Corviknight and makes it more reliable against threats like Choice Specs Latios and Flutter Mane.
