Ability: Unburden
SPs: 27 HP / 32 Atk / 7 Spe
Adamant Nature
- Swords Dance
- Acrobatics
- Close Combat
- Substitute
[SET COMMENTS]
Hawlucha is Grassy Terrain's most defining sweeper due to its excellent STAB combination and the Speed boost from Unburden. Substitute allows it to negate status effects such as poison from Toxapex and phazing attempts from Dragon Tail Garchomp. 27 HP SPs allow its Substitute to not be broken by Dragon Tail from defensive Garchomp after Grassy Seed's Defense boost, granting it free opportunities to set up Swords Dance. 7 Speed SPs allow it to outspeed Choice Scarf Meowscarada.
Rillaboom is a mandatory partner, setting Grassy Terrain to activate Hawlucha's Grassy Seed. In return, Hawlucha is able to weaken shared checks such as Corviknight. Entry hazard support from Pokemon such as Glimmora and Garchomp lets Hawlucha achieve critical damage rolls such as being able to OHKO Rotom-Wash with +2 Close Combat after Stealth Rock. Steel-types such as Mega Golisopod and Excadrill are valuable partners, being able to threaten Fairy-types like Clefable and Hatterene that Hawlucha can struggle to set up against as well as appreciating Hawlucha's ability to weaken shared checks like Corviknight and Skarmory. Special attackers such as Primarina and Dragapult are able to threaten physically defensive Pokemon such as Corviknight, Rotom-Wash, and Clefable. Likewise, Hawlucha is able to severely weaken Pokemon such as Galarian Slowking and Toxapex that can give the aforementioned special attackers trouble. Hawlucha can have trouble handling Pokemon like Aegislash and Skeledirge that can withstand its boosted attacks. Therefore, Dark-types such as Kingambit and Hisuian Samurott as well as Ghost-types such as Dragapult and Ceruledge are beneficial teammates.
