Thanks to its ability in Punk Rock increasing its sound-based moves incredibly and Choice Specs, Toxtricity can act as the premier special wallbreaker for Electric teams. When combined, Overdrive and Boomburst cover the majority of the metagame and can prove difficult to deal with for teams that lack key resistances to this combination. Volt Switch allows Toxtricity to act as a pivot that can be used when predicting a Pokemon that resists the two aforementioned moves to come into the field such as Ferrothorn. Maximum Speed investment is used in order to allow it to outspeed the majority of the unboosted metagame with Sticky Web support.
Toxtricity has a notably difficult time dealing with Pokemon that resist both Overdrive and Boomburst, such as Ferrothorn and Excadrill, and as such, it appreciates Pokemon with Fire-type coverage such as Dracozolt. Furthermore, due do its very middling Speed, Sticky Web support from Vikavolt is greatly needed in order for it to outspeed opposing Pokemon. Finally, slow pivot support from Pokemon like Rotom-W immensely benefits Toxtricity, allowing it to be brought in safely and gain KOs, as its mediocre defenses disallow it from taking on many attacks. Both Vikavolt and Rotom-W's ability in Levitate helps Toxtricity by allowing them to deal with Ground-type attacks for it as well.
