[OVERVIEW]

* Great natural speed tier combined w/ unburden keeps Hawlucha from being revenged by anything but priority and defensive answers
* electric seed combined w/ tapu koko support allows it to immediately enable acrobatics, trigger unburden, and gain a defensive boost, easing setup
* found a niche in OU on rain teams by exploiting typical rain checks like tangrowth, ferrothorn, tapu bulu, venusaur

* one shot w/ unburden
* extremely reliant on team support to function
* unimpressive offense before setup, often misses out on KOs without prior damage being spread on opponents

Team Options
========

* Tapu Koko is a necessary partner, also pressure tapu fini and toxapex
* Pelipper
* Mega Swampert
* Kingdra
* Ferrothorn, sets spikes and hazazrds
* lando-t can be used to set up hazards and weaken opposing lando-t
* Ash Greninja and can additionally set up spikes for purely offense focused rain builds
* Tornadus-T, but space is limited on a rain team w/ necessary partners like koko, pelipper, and swamp - you're already hitting the majority of torn's role with hawlucha
