Silvally-Flying carves its niche out in ZU as a strong setup sweeper and wallbreaker. Its powerful STAB Multi-Attack especially threatens Pokemon such as Tangela and Throh. Flame Charge enables Silvally-Flying to outspeed revenge killers such as Choice Scarf Rotom, Sawk, and Kabutops. U-turn allows it to retain momentum against Pokemon that handle its attacks like Kabutops. Surf is the coverage move of choice, allowing Silvally-Flying to 2HKO Rhydon and Coalossal.

Silvally-Flying fits well on offense teams as a late-game sweeper, although it can function as a standalone wallbreaker too. Unfezant and Nasty Plot Rotom-S can aid Silvally-Flying by forming an offensive Flying-type spam core, wearing down shared checks and physical walls such as Rhydon, Qwillfish, and Miltank. This core, however, makes the team very weak to Stealth Rock, so it's important to have entry hazard removers such as Kabutops and Rotom. Hattrem is also a great partner, preventing Stealth Rock thanks to Magic Bounce and providing Healing Wish, which is great for offensive teams. Electric-type foes that threaten Silvally-Flying such as Rotom and Manectric can be covered by Stealth Rock setters in Rhydon and Piloswine. Fire-type Pokemon such as Rapidash and Ninetales can help cover the Ice weakness, in addition to Steel-types like Klinklang. Neither covers these weaknesses perfectly, however, due to Alolan Dugtrio and Piloswine threatening them out. A bulky Water-type such as Poliwrath fill in these gaps. Pokemon such as Sawk, Rotom, and Thwackey appreciate wallbreaking from Silvally-Flying opening up a path for a late-game sweep.

Checks and Counters
===================

**Electric-types**: Electric-type Pokemon such as Rotom, Manectric, and Stunfisk resist Multi-Attack and can force Silvally-Flying out with their own STAB attacks. Choice Scarf Manectric is especially notable, outspeeding Silvally-Flying after a Flame Charge.

**Rock-types**: Rock-type Pokemon such as Rhydon, Coalossal, and Kabutops resist Multi-Attack and can threaten Silvally-Flying back. Rhydon and Coalossal can only check it, however, as they cannot switch into Surf.

**Steel-types**: Steel-type Pokemon such as Klinklang, and Alolan Dugtrio resist Multi-Attack. Silvally-Flying can break through them with Flame Charge after a Swords Dance boost, though.

**Ice-types**: Ice-type Pokemon such as Jynx and Articuno can check Silvally-Flying with their super effective STAB attacks. However, Jynx needs a Choice Scarf to be a consistent check. Piloswine, on the other hand, can easily take a hit and retaliate with Icicle Crash or just threaten it with a priority Ice Shard.

Silvally-Flying carves its niche out in ZU as a strong setup sweeper and wallbreaker. Boosting its attack with Swords Dance, before unleashing its powerfull STAB Multi-Attack to threaten Pokemon such as Tangela, Eldegoss, and Throh. Flame Charge enables Silvally-Flying to outspeed revenge killers such as Choice Scarf Rotom, Sawk, and Kabutops. U-turn allows Silvally-Flying to retain momentum against Electric, Steel, and Rock-types that resist Multi-Attack. Surf is the coverage move of choice, permitting Silvally-Flying to 2HKO Rhydon and Coalossal.

Silvally-Flying fits well on offence teams and is often best used as an unrevealed late-game sweeper, although it can function as a standalone breaker too. Unfezant can aid Silvally-Flying by forming an offensive Flying-type spam core, wearing down shared checks and physical walls such as Rhydon, Qwillfish, and Miltank. NP Rotom-S can also for ma flying spam core w/ flyvally. This however makes the team very weak to Stealth Rock so its important to have hazard removal such as Eldegoss, Lurantis mention something more relevant than Lurantis please, and Rotom. Hattrem is also a great partner, preventing Stealth Rock thanks to Magic Bounce mention the HW support which is great for such offensive teams. Electric-type foes that threaten Silvally-Flying such as Rotom and Manectirc can be covered by Stealth Rock setters, Rhydon and Piloswine. Fire-type Pokemon such as Rapidash and Ninetales can help cover the ice Ice-weakness, in addition to the Steelsteel-types like ... that resist Silvally-Flying STAB Multi-Attack. you wanna add that these aren't sufficient due to Alolan Dugtrio and Piloswine threatening them out. Pokemon such as Sawk, Rotom, and Thwackey appreciate Silvally-Flying prowess in wallbreaking, opening up a path for a late-game sweep.

Checks and Counters
===================

**Electric-types**: Electric-type Pokemon such as Rotom, Manectric, and Stunfisk resist Silvally-Flying's STAB attack and can force Silvally-Flying out with their own STAB attacks. I would emphasize that Scarf Manectric even outspeeds Silvally-Flying after a Flame Charge.

**Rock-types**: Rock-type Pokemon such as Rhydon and Coalossal resist Silvally-Flying's STAB attack and can threaten with their own. Both can only check however and cannot switch into Surf. Mention Kabutops which resists multi attack and doesn't care about surf.

**Steel-types** Steel-type Pokemon such as Klingklang, Perserker, and Alolan Dugtrio resist Silvally-Flying's STAB attack. Silvally-Flying can break through with Flame-Charge after a Swords Dance boost.

**Ice-types** Ice-type Pokemon such as Jynx and Articuno can be used to check Silvally-Flying with their super effective STAB attacks. However, Jyxn Jynx needs to hold a Choice Scarf to be a consistent check. You missed the most relevant one regarding Silvally-Flying; Piloswine can easily take a hit and retaliate back with a super effective Icicle Crash or just threaten with a priority Ice Shard.

These aren't sufficient however, due to Alolan Dugtrio and Piloswine threatening them out (name some examples of mons that can specifically deal with these two then, bulky waters perhaps, Tangela etc.). Pokemon such as Sawk, Rotom, and Thwackey appreciate Silvally-Flying prowess in wallbreaking, opening up a path for a late-game sweep.
