Hisuian Lilligant dances elegantly under the sunlight! Carving a small niche as one of sun teams' offensive threats, it makes use of Chlorophyll to blaze past and revenge kill even fast fearsome foes like Choice Scarf Darkrai, Speed Booster Energy Iron Valiant, and Dragon Dance Roaring Moon. Moreover, Hisuian Lilligant's nuclear STAB moves become nigh-impossible to switch into when backed by Triple Axel and Tera Blast Fire under the sun; the former takes care of Dragapult and Dragonite, while the latter melts Corviknight and Gholdengo and 2HKOes Zapdos without triggering Static. It also makes use of Tera Fire's defensive properties to flip its weakness against Pokemon like Weavile and Iron Valiant while preventing pesky Moltres and Dragapult from stopping its rampage with a burn. On top of a necessary sun setter like Ninetales, common wallbreakers like Raging Bolt, Walking Wake, and Roaring Moon are similarly important to keep up the offensive pressure. Hatterene's entry hazard-prevention antics due to Magic Bounce are similarly appreciated to keep Hisuian Lilligant healthy, with its and the aforementioned Ninetales's Healing Wish capable of doing so even further.
