[SET COMMENTS]
Thanks to a combination of its great stat distribution and typing, this set turns Flutter Mane into an exceptional utility Pokemon capable of exerting long-term pressure. Pixilate provides Flutter Mane with an extremely spammable STAB Boomburst, which, even without a boosting item, is capable of putting pressure to force special walls in. Alternatively, Magic Guard mitigates Life Orb recoil, poison damage, and entry hazard damage, while Teravolt allows Flutter Mane to bypass Ice Scales and Magic Bounce. Pain Split synergizes phenomenally with Flutter Mane's low HP stat by allowing it to annoy common high-HP Pokemon like Eternatus, Blissey, and Chansey while also preventing Imposter users from freely recovering. Flutter Mane is an excellent Spikes setter with its solid longevity and many opportunities to switch in, and Spikes allows it to guarantee progress against more passive special walls like Mega Audino and Blissey. Astral Barrage gives Flutter Mane a way to severely threaten Arceus-Ghost and Solgaleo, and it further dissuades Imposter users. Knock Off is a great option to remove Assault Vest and Heavy-Duty Boots from checks, but it can be annoying to Imposter-proof. Topsy-Turvy provides more defensive utility, allowing Flutter Mane to handle boosting special attackers like Arceus formes easier. Heavy-Duty Boots allows Flutter Mane to ignore hazard damage, while Covert Cloak is useful against secondary effects from common moves like Mortal Spin and Nuzzle.

Utility Flutter Mane works well on balanced structures, though it can also perform on more offensive teams. Almost all offensive Pokemon appreciate Flutter Mane's support with Spikes. Additionally, physical wallbreakers benefit from Flutter Mane's low Attack reducing Strength Sap recovery from walls like Fur Coat Arceus formes and Zamazenta, while special wallbreakers enjoy Flutter Mane annoying special walls like Blissey and RegenVest Pokemon with Pain Split and Knock Off, respectively. Flutter Mane fits naturally into entry hazard-stacking and hazard-resilient compositions; the former appreciates its strong Spikes-setting capabilities and utility from Knock Off, while the latter eases the Imposter-proofing by being able to ignore Spikes from Imposter users. As a Spikes setter, Flutter Mane appreciates Steel-type teammates like Celesteela, Dialga-O, and Solgaleo that can block Mortal Spin and complement it defensively by switching into checks like Arceus-Steel. Imposter users generally dislike switching into Flutter Mane, but it still requires an Imposter-proof teammate such as Ho-Oh, Arceus-Steel, or RegenVest Celesteela depending on the moveset.
