Flutter Mane is a fearsome wallbreaker that combines Sheer Force and Life Orb, its massive Special Attack and Speed, and an unresisted STAB combination to OHKO common Pokemon like Roaring Moon and Gholdengo. Flutter Mane has multiple coverage options: Thunderbolt threatens Iron Bundle and is its best option to hit Corviknight, while Mystical Fire can be used to hit Steel-types like Iron Treads and Tinkaton switching into Flutter Mane. Pain Split is another option that leverages Flutter Mane's low HP stat to recover health while forcing progress against Blissey and Ice Scales Corviknight. Taunt stops opposing setup sweepers and keeps Flutter Mane from being statused, Calm Mind increases Flutter Mane's offensive potency on a predicted switch, and Substitute punishes bulkier foes that rely on status moves or pivoting like Corviknight. Because its physical stats are so pitifully low, Flutter Mane is susceptible to being revenge killed by priority users like Dragonite, so it benefits from teammates like Corviknight and Garganacl that can take physical hits. Additionally, Flutter Mane can struggle with special walls like Blissey and Florges, so physically offensive Pokemon like Iron Hands and Ceruledge pair well with it.
