PVE Offensive Moves Explanation

  • Thunder Shock and Thunderbolt make for Rotom Wash's only genuinely viable attacking set
  • Hydro Pump is an acceptable option if you're against something weak to Electric and Water, but it's less viable regardless
  • Astonish is worthless, and Thunder is weaker than Thunderbolt in practice

PVE Defensive Moves Explanation

  • Astonish beats out Thunder Shock on defense due to its higher base power and great neutral coverage
  • Thunderbolt is Rotom Wash's fastest attack
  • Thunder and Hydro Pump are slow, but the later is preferred if you insist on using one of them.

PVE Overview

Everyone's favorite washing machine possessed by an electrical poltergeist is here, and it's ready to clean up the competition!

...or not. Smogon's favorite little soapy specter has lost the features that makes it a threat in the main series, and it's been dropped into the middle of a meta that isn't exactly kind towards it. It's generally better to just keep this little dishwasher safe in your storage.

PvP Moveset Explanation

Thunder Shock + Thunderbolt and Hydro Pump

Thunder Shock sports very fast energy generation, though its damage output is poor despite gaining STAB. Astonish is a very bad move. 

Thunderbolt and Thunder perform similarly, but the former is recommended due to its lesser energy cost. Hydro Pump offers powerful STAB Water-type coverage, but also demands a lot of energy to use. 

PvP Rating Explanation

Great League: 1.5 / 5

Rotom Wash sports a very similar style of play compared to Lanturn, with identical typings and powerful charge moves backed by fast energy generation. While Rotom's energy gains are slightly faster, its bulk falls behind considerably due to its much higher ATK stat. Thus Rotom will often fail to win fights due to its slow shield pressure and reliance on charge moves, especially when shields are in play. 

Ultra League: 1.5 / 5

Rotom's problems in Great League still plague it in Ultra League, with no real wins against most meta picks aside from Water-Pokemon without Ground-typing. 

Master League: 0 / 5

With a max CP of 2579. Rotom lacks stats to compete in Master League.
