Rotom-H's unique set of resistances and good bulk make it a potent specially defensive pivot, as it can switch into top special attackers like Tapu Koko and Heatran. Rotom-H excels at bringing teammates such as Tapu Lele and Zygarde-10% in safely with Volt Switch, as it threatens common Ground-types such as Landorus-T with Will-O-Wisp. Overheat, in addition to being Rotom-H's strongest attack, provides coverage against the numerous Grass- and Steel-types in the metagame like Tangrowth and Necrozma-DM. Will-O-Wisp also helps check Rayquaza and Rillaboom, which its excellent typing allows it to check without significant Defense investment. Pain Split allows Rotom-H to stay healthy, which is useful in longer games. It can also opt for Defog, since it matches up well into common entry hazard setters such as Landorus-T, Ferrothorn, and Necrozma-DM.

Rotom-H fits best on bulky offense teams that have high HP gods, such as Yveltal, Mewtwo, and Kyurem-W. Yveltal is an especially good partner since it appretiates Rotom-H checking Tapu Koko. Other pivoting teammates like Tapu Koko, Landorus-T, and the aforementioned Yveltal form potent VoltTurn cores with Rotom-H. Strong wallbreakers such as Weavile, Tapu Lele, and Zygarde-10% appreciate Rotom-H bringing them onto the field safely. Grass-types such as Dhelmise and Rillaboom make excellent partners, as they threaten Rotom-H's number one enemy, Gastrodon. Knock Off severely threatens Rotom-H because of its reliance on Heavy-Duty Boots to not get worn down by Stealth Rock, so Knock Off switch-ins such as Buzzwole and Clefable make for great teammates. Finally, other special walls such as Tangrowth and Slowbro help cover special attackers that don't fear Rotom-H, like Kyurem-W and Volcanion.

Other Options
=============

Toxic can be used to wear down bulky Pokemon such as Gastrodon, Ho-Oh, and Giratina over time, as well as check Volcarona, but Will-O-Wisp is generally preferred. Thunder Wave is also an option to aid slower wallbreakers, but makes it a worse check to Rillaboom.

Checks and Counters

**Dragon-Types**: Giratina and Kyurem-W are able to consistently switch into Rotom-H without fearing its STAB moves or common status options. Kyurem-W can also threaten Rotom-H with Turboblaze Earth Power.

**Knock Off**: Rotom-H's reliance on Heavy-Duty Boots for longevity leaves it an easy target for Knock Off from the likes of Tangrowth, Rillaboom, and Zeraora.

**Toxic Users**: Toxic from Pokemon like Landorus-T and Heatran completely cripples Rotom-H and wears it down considerably, leaving it vulnerable to the Pokemon it's supposed to check.
