Rotom (Wash) is an Electric & Water Pokémon. It is vulnerable to Ground and Grass moves. Rotom's strongest moveset is Thunder Shock & Thunderbolt and it has a Max CP of 2,579.
"Its body is composed of plasma. It is known to infiltrate electronic devices and wreak havoc."
Thunder Shock sports very fast energy generation, though its damage output is poor despite gaining STAB. Astonish is a very bad move.
Thunderbolt and Thunder perform similarly, but the former is recommended due to its lesser energy cost. Hydro Pump offers powerful STAB Water-type coverage, but also demands a lot of energy to use.
Rotom Wash sports a very similar style of play compared to Lanturn, with identical typings and powerful charge moves backed by fast energy generation. While Rotom's energy gains are slightly faster, its bulk falls behind considerably due to its much higher ATK stat. Thus Rotom will often fail to win fights due to its slow shield pressure and reliance on charge moves, especially when shields are in play.
Rotom's problems in Great League still plague it in Ultra League, with no real wins against most meta picks aside from Water-Pokemon without Ground-typing.
With a max CP of 2579. Rotom lacks stats to compete in Master League.
