[SET COMMENTS]
* Rotom-W's Speed, which notably allows it to outpace Gholdengo, access to Volt Switch, and great typing make it an excellent pivot and revenge killer.
* Trick is seriously worth considering for its ability to cripple defensive Pokemon such as Garganacl and Dondozo.
* If using Trick, make sure Rotom-W is a neutral nature that has had a Timid Mint used on it. This way, Rotom-W can eat any Berry without getting confused.
Tera Types
========
* **Electric-type**: Not only does the damage boost from Tera Electric come in handy, but it also removes any weaknesses Rotom-W has.
* **Fairy-type**: When combined with Tera Blast, a Fairy Tera type lets Rotom-W take on Dragon-types such as Dragapult and Hydreigon far more effectively.
Items
========
* **Choice Scarf**: Choice Scarf lets Rotom-W outspeed major threats such as Dragapult and Meowscarada.
* **Choice Specs**: Choice Specs tends to be safer to Trick than Choice Scarf, and it gives a big power boost.
EV Spreads
========
* **4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe**: Maximizing Rotom-W's Special Attack is part of what makes it an effective revenge killer.
* **252 HP / 4 SpD / 252 Spe**: This spread sacrifices Rotom-W's revenge killing potential, but, in exchange, it makes it a better pivot, and the better bulk makes Rotom-W more suited to finding the right time to cripple a wall with Trick.

move 4: Tera Blast / Dark Pulse
item: Lum Berry / Sitrus Berry
ability: Levitate
nature: Timid / Modest
tera type: Fairy / Electric
Evs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
[SET COMMENTS]
* With a great typing, ability, and good bulk, Rotom-W makes for an effective user of Nasty Plot.
* Tera Blast is usually used with Terastallization, but even beforehand, it provides a neutral attack to hit most Dragon-types with.
* If using an Electric Tera type, Dark Pulse is Rotom-W's best option against Dragapult.
Tera Types
========
* **Fairy-type**: With a Fairy Tera type, Rotom-W can turn the tables on its Dragon-type adversaries.
* **Electric-type**: In addition to boosting the power of Electric-type attacks, all of Rotom-W's weaknesses are removed.
Items
========
* **Lum Berry**: Lum Berry lets Rotom-W easily set up on Hippowdon, and avoid getting put to sleep by Dondozo.
* **Sitrus Berry**: If Sleep isn't a big issue, Rotom-W appreciates the burst recovery Sitrus Berry provides.
EV Spreads
========
* **4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe**: Maximizing Speed with a Timid nature gives Rotom-W the jump on Gholdengo. If Gholdengo isn't an issue, a Modest nature will still outspeed Jolly Breloom.
* **252 HP / 252 SpA / 4 SpD with Modest**: Rotom-W's good bulk can be maximized instead of outspeeding Breloom; this spread avoids the 2HKO from Timid Gholdengo's Shadow Ball.
