Rotom-Wash's strong defensive typing and ability combination allow it to be one of the best blanket rain counters in the entire tier. It is the one of the only Pokemon that can resist the combination of Waterfall, Earthquake and Ice Punch from Mega Swampert, while also being able to OHKO Pelipper and cripple common offensive swift swimmers such as Barraskewda or the aforementioned Mega Swampert attempting to deny a volt switch using Will-O-Wisp. It can also function well as a Defog user due to having an immunity to spikes, however due to not having consistent recovery it may not be able to do this consistently in longer games. Rotom-Wash has just enough stats to be able to function well as a good defensive pivot against many ground, flying and water types in the tier while also having significant offensive pressure due to being able to deal massive damage to common Pokemon such as Landorus-T, Gliscor and Great Tusk. Rotom-Wash's unique stab combination allows it to offensively pressure many of the ground types in the tier that may be preventing it from using volt switch, while also being immune to ground moves due to Levitate. This unique typing and ability combination gives it only a single weakness to Grass, therefore making Pokemon like Heatran and Bulky Mega Scizor extremely good teammates. Pain Split can be used over Defog if the team already has sufficient hazard control to be able to regain health against opponents such as Alomomola. Tera Fairy gives Rotom-Wash a resistance to Dark and Fighting which allows it to more easily check specific threats such as Great Tusk or Barraskewda using Close Combat as well as walling Swords Dance Garchomp, however Tera Ghost can be used instead to wall threats such as Ursaluna and to function as a Rapid Spin blocker and Tera Poison can be used to resist Fighting and Fairy, and to avoid Toxic from threats such as Gliscor. 44 speed EVs outspeeds max speed Jolly Mega Mawile as well as Landorus-T.
