A good Special Attack stat, good typing, and Choice Specs make Walking Wake a devastating wallbreaker. Hydro Steam is a powerful STAB option that is extremely difficult to switch into under sun, especially with the Protosynthesis boost. It notably 2HKOes Toxapex, Miraidon, and Koraidon, as well as OHKOing Corviknight and Iron Bundle. Draco Meteor OHKOes Dragon-types such as Koraidon, Miraidon, and opposing Walking Wake, preventing them from switching in, while also 2HKOing Water Absorb Clodsire and OHKOing Toxapex in sun. Flamethrower lets Walking Wake deal with Tera Steel Clodsire. Hydro Pump provides a strong Water-type STAB move outside of sun, and it can also be used with Pelipper's rain, boosting Walking Wake's damage output to massive levels. Alternatively, Dragon Pulse can be used for greater consistency than Draco Meteor, but note that it doesn't 2HKO Clodsire. Tera Water boosts Walking Wake's Hydro Steam to an insane level, allowing it to 2HKO Blissey and OHKO Assault Vest Flutter Mane in sun. Tera Water also lets Walking Wake survive Moonblast from Flutter Mane, Dragon Claw from Koraidon, and Freeze-Dry from Iron Bundle in a pinch. Because Walking Wake can be easily revenge killed, it fits best on balance teams alongside walls such as Clodsire, Corviknight, and Toxapex. Physical attackers like Koraidon and Chien-Pao are good teammates, as they pressure Walking Wake's checks in Blissey and Water Absorb Clodsire. Koraidon in particular sets sun for Walking Wake, and it potentially lets Walking Wake in safely through U-turn, allowing it to pressure Koraidon's checks in Skeledirge, Pelipper, and Toxapex.
