With its ability in Magic Bounce deterring Stealth Rock and dual screens support for teammates, Xatu acts as a great utility support Pokemon for hyper offensive Flying-type teams. It provides threatening setup sweepers like Gyarados and Hawlucha not only with dual screen support, but also with Thunder Wave to slow down faster Pokemon and open up more room for offensive teammates to shine. U-turn allows it to switch into the desired teammate after setting up dual screens without losing much momentum for the team. Xatu should be preserved, as Magic Bounce is crucial for Flying-type teams and its Speed tier lets it repeatedly set up dual screens throughout the game. Maximum Speed investment allows Xatu to be as fast as possible to set up dual screens, while the rest of the spread improves its overall bulk to paralyze threats like Barraskewda and Togekiss for the team when behind dual screen support.
Offensive behemoths like Gyarados, Hawlucha, Braviary, and Charizard all make exceptional teammates for Xatu, as they all appreciate dual screen and Thunder Wave support to aid them in setting up. Xatu should be kept away from Knock Off users like Clefable and Whimsicott, as without its Light Clay, the number of turns its teammates can take advantage of dual screens support is reduced. Additionally, Xatu should be kept away from faster Dark-, Ice-, and Ghost-types that can outright OHKO it and instead should pivot out with U-turn on their predicted switch in.

Avec son Talent Miroir Magik dissuadant la pose des Pièges de Roc, ainsi que son support des murs qu'il apporte à ses coéquipiers, Xatu se révèle comme étant un très bon Pokémon utilitaire dans les hyper offense Vol. Il apporte non seulement les murs, mais aussi un support avec Cage Eclair qui ralentit les Pokémon plus rapides et ouvre ainsi plus de porte pour ses coéquipiers offensifs de brillier. Demi-Tour lui permet de faire venir sur le terrain le coéquipier voulu après qu'il a placé les murs, et ce sans trop faire perdre de momentum. Xatu devrait être conservé, étant donné que Miroir Magik est quelque chose de crucial pour les équipes Vol, et aussi parce avec sa Vitesse il peut poser les murs tout au long du match. Un investissement maximal en Vitesse permet à Xatu d'être aussi rapide que possible pour poser les murs plus facilement, tandis que le reste améliore son bulk global pour paralyser plus facilement des menaces comme Hastacuda et Togekiss quand les murs sont posés.
Des monstres offensifs comme Léviator, Brutalibré, Guériaigle et Dracaufeu, font tous des coéquipiers exceptionnels pour Xatu, car ils bénécicent tous du support des murs, ainsi que celui de Cage Eclair, que Xatu qu'apporte ; ils peuvent ainsi se placer plus facilement. Xatu ne devrait pas s'exposer aux utilisateurs de Sabotage, étant donné que sans sa Lumargile le nombre de tours des murs, que les coéquipiers de Xatu peuvent profiter, diminuent. De plus, Xatu ne devrait également pas prendre les attaques Ténèbres, Glace et Spectre, qui peuvent l'OHKO. A la place, il devrait pivoter avec Demi-Tour en prédiction de leur switch-in.
