- Hydro Steam
- Draco Meteor
- Flamethrower
- Dragon Pulse

Walking Wake is a fantastic wallbreaker in OU, firing off a nuclear sun-boosted Hydro Steam that evaporates offensive and defensive threats alike. Dragon Pulse is a no-drawback STAB move that can be used in scenarios where Draco Meteor's power isn't needed, such as against weakened offensive threats like Greninja and Baxcalibur. Flamethrower cleanly dents or OHKOes Amoonguss, Kingambit, and Scizor under sun. The given EV spread makes Protosynthesis boost Walking Wake's Speed, letting it revenge kill otherwise-faster Pokemon like Dragapult, Iron Valiant, and Roaring Moon; it also improves its performance against offense and enhances its sweeping potential. Tera Water powers up Hydro Steam, making it stronger against Water-resistant Pokemon like Amoonguss, easing prediction. It also sheds its Dragon typing, which lets it beat opposing Walking Wake, Dragapult, and Iron Valiant one-on-one. Torkoal is a natural partner for Walking Wake, as it sets sun, sets Stealth Rock to further pressure checks like Rotom-W, Toxapex, and Amoonguss, and removes entry hazards. Brute Bonnet is a solid partner too, as it pressures the aforementioned bulky Water-types and appreciates Walking Wake pressuring Volcarona, Iron Valiant, and Great Tusk.

rking is nice but its applications are broader than this. gives it a stronger mu into offense in general and the ability to sweep more easily

Tera Water powers up Hydro Steam, making it stronger against Water-resistant Pokemon like Toxapex and Amoonguss, easing prediction immensely.
also sheds dragon weakness, which is nice if it wants to secure a ko into the wake mirror or against pult draco

1/1

Here comes the sun! Walking Wake is a fantastic wallbreaker in OU, firing off a nuclear sun-boosted Hydro Steam that evaporates offensive and defensive threats alike, including the likes of Garganacl, Gholdengo, and Kimgambit, as well as resistant targets like Rotom-W and Toxapex. Dragon Pulse is a no-drawback STAB move that can be used in scenarios where Draco Meteor's power isn't needed, such as against weakened offensive threats like Greninja and Baxcalibur. Flamethrower cleanly dents or OHKOes Amoonguss, Kingambit, and Scizor under sun. The given EV spread makes Protosynthesis boost Walking Wake's Speed, letting it revenge kill otherwise-faster Pokemon like Dragapult, Iron Valiant, and Roaring Moon; it also makes it better against offense and enhances its sweeping potential. Tera Water powers up Hydro Steam, making it stronger against Water-resistant Pokemon like Toxapex and Amoonguss, easing prediction immensely. It also sheds its Dragon-type weakness, which lets it 1v1 secure a KO against opposing Walking Wake, Dragapult, and Iron Valiant. Torkoal is a natural partner for Walking Wake, as it sets sun, sets Stealth Rock to further pressure checks like Rotom-W, Toxapex, and Amoonguss, and removes entry hazards to prevent Walking Wake from being worn down quickly. Brute Bonnet is a solid partner too, as it pressures the aforementioned bulky Water-types and appreciates Walking Wake pressuring offensive checks to it like Volcarona, Iron Valiant, and Great Tusk.
