[SET COMMENTS]
Hisuian Lilligant serves as a strong wincon for Grass teams thanks to its solid Fighting typing and strong setup option in Victory Dance, which enables it to outspeed and remove problematic threats such Tornadus-T, Dragapult, and Choice Specs Flutter Mane. Close Combat tears through Steel- and Ice-types like Heatran, Bisharp, Mamoswine, and Frosmoth. Ice Spinner provides solid coverage against Flying- and Dragon-types such as the Landorus formes, Dragonite, and Dragapult as well as Grass-types capable of taking its STAB moves like Amoonguss and Sinistcha. Finally Sleep Powder can prevent would-be checks like Galarian Weezing and Okidogi from handling Hisuian Lilligant if it hasn't gotten a Victory Dance yet, while Leaf Blade enables it to break foes like Primarina, Slowbro, and Toxapex, which wall its combination of Close Combat and Ice Spinner. Wide Lens is used to help offset the accuracy lowering of Hustle along with helping Sleep Powder land.
Choice Scarf Meowscarada provides immediate speed control that enables it to handle Psychic- and Ghost-types such as Galarian Slowking, Latios, and Hisuian Zoroark along with using Knock Off to remove Rocky Helmet from the likes of Skarmory and Forretress. Ogerpon-C can help by removing Fire- and Flying-types that could handle Hisuian Lilligant like Volcarona, Moltres, and Zapdos. Alternatively, Ogerpon-H helps to pressure Ice- and Steel-types like Alolan Ninetales, Archaludon, and Gholdengo along with checking threats like Galarian Weezing. Amoonguss pressures Fairy-types such as Iron Valiant, Choice Scarf Enamorus, and Flutter Mane with Sludge Bomb, and it can use Stun Spore to slow down Choice Scarf threats like Dragapult and Greninja, which outspeed and remove a boosted Hisuian Lilligant. Sinistcha can help to handle physical walls like Galarian Weezing and Hatterene with its powerful Shadow Ball. Brambleghast can help Hisuian Lilligant by setting and removing Spikes, enabling it to wear down would-be checks like Iron Moth and Iron Hands. Brambleghast can also wall Tornadus-T and Zapdos thanks to Wind Rider while being able to remove Ghost-types like Gholdengo with Poltergeist. Hydrapple possesses a nice Fire neutrality, which enables it to check foes like Choice Scarf Hisuian Arcanine and Iron Moth prior to Hisuian Lilligant setting up, and its powerful Special Attacks helps it break physical walls like Sableye and Mandibuzz.

Healing Wish can serve as a niche option to help support another teammate such as an Ogerpon forme or Sinistcha in matchups where Hisuian Lilligant is less useful such as against Fire and Bug teams.
