[SET COMMENTS]
Hawlucha acts as the fastest setup sweeper available to Flying teams thanks to Unburden and Max Airstream boosting its Speed beyond even that of Swift Swim and Sand Rush sweepers. With Thunder Punch, it can use Max Lightning to activate its Electric Seed and its ability, giving it a Defense boost and doubling its Speed. Typically, you should look to use Swords Dance before Dynamaxing so that Hawlucha is extremely powerful right off the bat; however, Max Knuckle allows it to easily boost its Attack during Dynamax as well. While Hawlucha is reliant on Dynamax to activate Unburden to sweep late-game, it is also capable of simply wallbreaking early-game with its powerful 120-Base Power STAB attacks backed by Swords Dance to allow its teammates to use Dynamax's powerful boosts instead.

Because Hawlucha cannot use Max Lightning against Ground-types, Pokemon that can take on Ground teams are essential, of which Gyarados is easily the best, thanks to its ability to make great use of Max Geyser and Max Airstream to sweep. Hawlucha also doesn't have great bulk even with the help of Electric Seed, so it appreciates Xatu's ability to provide dual screens and pivoting with U-turn. Pokemon like Charizard that struggle against Water teams pair well with Hawlucha, which is able to easily sweep them.
