Hisuian Electrode is a great offensive pivot thanks to its amazing Speed, access to Volt Switch, and powerful STAB Chloroblast for Ground-types like Swampert, Great Tusk, and Sandy Shocks. Thunder Wave cripples switch-ins like Roaring Moon, Hisuian Goodra, and Ogerpon-H, potentially letting Hisuian Electrode's teammates outspeed and threaten them, while Leech Seed lets it chip down walls such as Blissey and Hisuian Goodra and heal. Worry Seed removes Volt Absorb from walls like Corviknight and Empoleon and Regenerator from Hisuian Goodra and Meloetta, letting it chip the latter two, especially with entry hazards on the field. Hisuian Electrode forms a great VoltTurn core with other offensive pivots like Barraskewda, Roaring Moon, and Slither Wing, as they can bring it in on physical walls like Corviknight and Great Tusk, and it can bring them in on special walls like Hisuian Goodra and Meloetta. Entry hazard setters like Heatran, Scream Tail, and Deoxys-D are great teammates thanks to hazards wearing down Hisuian Electrode's switch-ins like Roaring Moon, Hisuian Goodra, and Heatran; in return, it can threaten common hazard removers like Corviknight, Great Tusk, and Mandibuzz. Hisuian Electrode struggles to break through specially defensive walls like Blissey, Hisuian Goodra, and Meloetta, so physical wallbreakers like Ceruledge and Galarian Zapdos are appreciated. Hisuian Electrode is also frail and has a middling defensive typing, so slow, bulky pivots that can take a hit and safely pivot it in like Corviknight and Swampert make good partners.

Hisuian Electrode is a great offensive pivot thanks to its amazing Speed, access to Volt Switch, and powerful STAB Chloroblast for Ground-types like Great Tusk and Sandy Shocks swampert is something i would definitely mention here for ground types that could otherwise block Volt Switch. Thunder Wave cripples switch-ins like Roaring Moon, Gouging Fire, and Hisuian Goodra, potentially letting Hisuian Electrode's teammates outspeed and threaten them, while Leech Seed lets it chip down walls such as Blissey and Hisuian Goodra and heal from them. Hisuian Electrode forms a great VoltTurn core with other offensive pivots like Barraskewda, Roaring Moon, and Slither Wing, as they can bring it in on physical walls like Corviknight and Great Tusk, while Hisuian Electrode can bring them in on special walls like Hisuian Goodra and Meloetta. Entry hazard setters like Heatran and Deoxys-D are great teammates thanks to hazards wearing down its switch-ins like Roaring Moon and Hisuian Goodra; i feel like you're never gonna break this mon in the long term; another mon like maybe heatran is better in return, Hisuian Electrode can threaten common hazard removers like Corviknight, Great Tusk, and Mandibuzz. Hisuian Electrode struggles to break through RegenVest users like Hisuian Goodra and Meloetta, so physical wallbreakers like Ceruledge and Galarian Zapdos are appreciated; it also struggles against Dragon-types like Roaring Moon and Gouging Fire, so teammates that can deal with them like Great Tusk and Primarina are also great teammates. Hisuian Electrode is also frail and has a middling defensive typing, so bulky slow pivots that can take a hit and safely pivot it in like Corviknight and Swampert are appreciated.

Hisuian Electrode is a great offensive pivot thanks to its amazing Speed, access to Volt Switch, and powerful STAB Chloroblast for Ground-types like Swampert, Great Tusk and Sandy Shocks that could otherwise block Volt Switch optional removal but i think most people know that ground is immune to electric. Thunder Wave cripples switch-ins like Roaring Moon, Gouging Fire, and Hisuian Goodra, potentially letting Hisuian Electrode's teammates outspeed and threaten them, while Leech Seed lets it chip down walls such as Blissey and Hisuian Goodra and heal from them. mention worry seed's unique utility here, ignoring electric immunities and importantly regenerator lets helectrode actually meaningfully annoy hoodra Hisuian Electrode forms a great VoltTurn core with other offensive pivots like Barraskewda, Roaring Moon, and Slither Wing, as they can bring it in on physical walls like Corviknight and Great Tusk, while Hisuian Electrode can bring them in on special walls like Hisuian Goodra and Meloetta. Entry hazard setters like Heatran, Scream Tail, and Deoxys-D are great teammates thanks to hazards wearing down its switch-ins like Roaring Moon, Hisuian Goodra, you likely aren't going to break this yourself, yes, but wearing it down is still incredibly useful and Heatran; in return, Hisuian Electrode can threaten common hazard removers like Corviknight, Great Tusk, and Mandibuzz. Hisuian Electrode struggles to break through RegenVest users like Hisuian Goodra and Meloetta, so physical wallbreakers like Ceruledge and Galarian Zapdos are appreciated; it also struggles against Dragon-types like Roaring Moon and Gouging Fire so teammates that can deal with them like Great Tusk and Primarina are also great teammates. gouging fire is being banned, helectrode does good enough into wake with chloroblast, both goodras are exclusively regenvesters, and moon was already mentioned; removed for redundancy. Hisuian Electrode is also frail and has a middling defensive typing, so bulky slow pivots that can take a hit and safely pivot it in like Corviknight and Swampert are appreciated.

swampert was absolutely the right call over something like sandy shocks, so good work there. you were also correct in that helectrode is probably not breaking hoodra on its own, but removing it from the list feels like a misunderstanding of why you want to chip down walls in the first place. hazard chip and/or denying regenerator with worry seed helps teammates like the physical wallbreakers break through hoodra with raw strength as well as helping other special attackers such as wake, gholdengo, deoxys-s, etc. overload hoodra, as it's often a teams sole special wall and, in tandem with weak hits from helectrode, can be slowly but surely worn down even with regen. even if helectrode can't break something itself, the hazard chip on whatever it cant break is still super useful. all of this applies to roaring moon as well, so good call keeping it in. good work!
