I 8TRUC THE SPAMMER OF BULLSHIT THINK THAT HATTERENE SHOULD BE GIVEN A RISE IN THE VR REASONS YOU MAY ASK REASONS I SHALL PROVIDE:
1- i think -C is a rank that is given to pokemon that has a purpose on a very specific team style and that too is a niche role ,take gen8 xatu for an example, however i think such is not true for hatterene as unlike xatu n shit its actually great at what it does and it performs the function that is has in a very good manner (unlike xatu beaten by knock ndm) and also unlike xatu hatt is not confined to a very specific sub-genre of teams such as HOOH SEMI STALL hatt is functionable on all HO,BULKYOFFENSE,STALL (not so much on balance but thats normie playstyle anyway)
2- hatt is cute
3-Hatterene trully makes mu vs tinglu very easy winning a spike war which is crucial in a meta with soo little removal
4-hatterene destroys most common stalls in ubers because they are not ready for it
5-hatterene can also somewhat check koraidon (not good at this please dont kill me for adding this) specially taunt flame charge set after opponent tera is burned
6-hatterene is not passive as shit as nuzzle can provide good utility vs incoming zac/arceus-f
7-hatterene blocks stalltwo more about y that is imp later
8-hatt allows teammates like tina to forgo defog and actually use good moves (not always dont kill me for adding this)
9-hatt allows HO to not lose momentum and keeping off hazards (more on that later)
10-hatterene block cheap stored power arceus (more on y that is important later)
11-hatt can also serve as a tr setter lead for trick room teams (dont do this tho i dont recommend it dont kill me its just what ppl are doing)
NOW THAT I 8TRUC SPAMMER OF BULLSHIT HAVE PROVIDED 10 REASONS I SHALL TELL YOU HATTERENE'S ROLE IN DIFFERENT PLAYSTYLES 1 BY 1 STARTING WITH HO:
oh my gawd these tryhard noob tspike spammers are everywhere they ruin my team what can i possibly do ;-; NO PROBLEM RUN HATTERENE
now some of you will ask not just use eternatus and absorb tspike to that i say cool do it.HOWEVER,hatt has the ability to do this while not losing momentum unlike eternatus who lets in ting lu which gets up 3 spikes ww your set up guy and everything becomes messy for your HO ting lu in vs your HO is never good i expect yall to know this if you give him free turns hell be a bitch but HATTERENE DOES NOT LET THIS HAPPEN it can also nuzzle shit and check korai somewhat(dont kill me hes bad at this) if you toxic ting lu with etern
good for mirai yes but if you get in cb/lorb korai in free vs lu for atleast 2 times per game
great for your team .set to use on these types of teams:

THE USE ON STALL:
hatterene in my opinion is a sleeper pick on stall i might as well go ahead and say it is more influential than shit eternatus on stall hell he might even be better than arceus-water hell he might even be better than skeledirge (dont kill me i trully stand by eternatus part tho that guy is not it) next we shall discuss its uses on the manly playstyle that is stall
1-beats stalltwo every staller hates stalltwo i do too but hatterene destroys stalltwo taunt(bounced back) burn(hhaha bitch) psystrike(that tickles)recover(you only got 8 of those mf) in return you cm to +6 so they have to switch to the limitted checks to hatt like arc-f(allows hazard spam by clod or regen cycling of pex or rocks by bliss or defog by corv basically opponent loses momentum)arc-g(bliss gets up rocks,corv defogs arc-water can rocks etc)zacian (mystic fire takes 50 from him nuzzle paras it stall doesnt use nuzzle tho pex regen cycling mola regen cycling arc ground set oppurtunity if it has lost the initial boost arc-w rock arc-g rocks tera tina defog)
2-allows teammates to not run boots ; u can use chansey now you can use helmet on pex now you can use dondozo with lefties/helmet now you dont have to defog soo often that the game goes for 10000 turns if you are using arceus n shit natus can run lefties(eww natus tho)
3-check niche future sight users with protect like slowking haha slowking noobs get rekt
4- hatterene also lives hits from shit in a pinch like ray/arc/korai etc
5-makes stall mirror tilt heavily in your favour
6-blocks tina hazard spam (fuck u tina hazard spammers use real breakers like a man does)
sets to use on these teams :
https://pokepast.es/fda04e29aac04bb7 mystical fire is replaceable with protect healwish etc
THE USE ON BO:
hatt has a very beautiful niche on BO as it can:
1-provide tina-o with a free slot over defog dual status tina is op use him guys
2-provide ogre longevity vs spikes teams so it can fire more hits
3-para zac/arc-f so that your guys can abuse the shit out of it
4-wins the hazard war (very important for BO)
5-healwish and bring a teamate back to life
6-serve as a wincon late game
7-beats stall2 (annoying for BO)
THIS IS MY CASE INFRONT OF YOU I HOPE YOU CAN SEND HATT TO A BETTER TIERING BECAUSE ITS PRETTY POGGERS BYE YALL :)
