Rotom-S functions a little differently to other Rotom formes in that it has less defensive utility due to its worse defensive typing; however, it gets Air Slash and therefore is able to run a threatening sweeper set. As well as this, it is able to set up on Ferrothorn a lot more easily than some other Max Airstream sweepers such as Gyarados. Thunderbolt and Air Slash are Rotom-S's STAB moves, with the latter boosting Rotom-S's Speed whilst Dynamaxed. Nasty Plot is needed to boost Rotom-S's middling Special Attack to threatening levels. The last move is generally Shadow Ball to cover Dragapult and Mimikyu, though Will-O-Wisp and Thunder Wave can provide some utility in matchups where Rotom-S is unable to sweep or is not the primary Dynamax user. A variety of items can be used on Rotom-S, and all aim to increase its damage output. Sharp Beak and Weakness Policy in particular are significant because the former boosts the power of Max Airstream whilst the latter gives Rotom-S the opportunity to sweep with the boosts. A Timid nature is preferred due to allowing Rotom-S to outspeed Dragapult at +1.
Good teammates for Rotom-S include those that can mitigate its Rock-type weakness, specifically from Tyranitar, and break through special walls such as Snorlax. Therefore , Pokemon with strong Fighting-type attacks such as Galarian Darmanitan and Conkeldurr can work well in breaking through these Pokemon. Aside from that, Mimikyu can be a stop to Rotom-S, so Mold Breaker Excadrill is also a decent potential teammate.
