Quaxly is a notable Rapid Spin user in LC due to its access to reliable recovery and good matchup into entry hazard setters like Pawniard and Glimmet; it can also double as a capable sweeper thanks to Moxie. Aqua Cutter gives up some power compared to Liquidation but does not make contact, which avoids activating Greavard's Fluffy and Voltorb's Static, and removes the risk of activating Pawniard's Defiant with a Defense drop. Brave Bird can be used for super effective coverage versus Grass- and Fighting-types, most notably Toedscool. Alternatively, Aqua Jet gives Quaxly priority, which can be used to threaten weakened foes without a Speed boost. Encore can lock opposing Pokemon into unfavorable moves, such as weak setup moves, gaining momentum for Quaxly's team. Quaxly can use Tera Grass for a better matchup versus Electric- and Grass-types as well as a valuable immunity to Spore from Foongus and Toedscool. Tera Flying can also be used with Brave Bird to turn Quaxly into a more potent offensive threat. Pokemon weak to Stealth Rock, such as Nymble and Larvesta, are great partners for Quaxly, as they appreciate the removal of entry hazards to be used at their full potential. Foongus is another good partner, as it can safely switch into Grass-types and provides valuable Spore support. Pokemon such as Toedscool and Wattrel check Electric-types for Quaxly.
