This is my first attempt at an analysis so any constructive criticism is appreciated, I'm not exactly sure on the format so any help with that would be nice too
- Arguably the best offensive typing in the game
- Not sure what to put here, it's a fridge that decimates RU
- One of the best Hail Pokemon in RU
- Very underrated, getting next to no usage

[SET Comments]
- Specs set can OHKO or 2HKO most threats in the metagame
- Hail support turns him into one of the best wallbreakers in the tier
- Volt Switch allows you to gain momentum with ease
- Choice Scarf allows to revenge kill offensive threats
- Trick lets you cripple a wall with a useless item
- EVs are for maximum speed and power
- Works well with something that can remove Very fast or bulky Pokemon.
- Needs Snover to function efficiently

- Can take advantage of switches unlike choice Rotom-F
- Pain Split provides semi-reliable recovery, allowing Rotom-F to live longer
- Needs Snover to make Blizzard reliable
- Can dismantle most stall teams
[ADDITIONAL COMMENTS]
- A bulkier set can be used but the drop in speed and power is noticable
- Can be used without Snover support but its viability drops greatly
[OTHER OPTIONS]
- A defensive set is outclassed by other Rotom forms
- Dual Screens are outclassed by Cryogonal
- Can run a Hidden Power [Grass] to hit Lanturn
- A Life Orb can be used to switch moves more freely.
[CHECKS AND COUNTERS]
- Eviolite Magneton can threaten with Flash Cannon
- Specially Defensive Lanturn can hit Rotom-F with Toxic or Scald
- Faster Scarfers like Primeape can OHKO
- Choice Band Entei does a lot with Extremespeed
