Strategy Overview
Rotom may appear to be outclassed by Mismagius due to the latter's higher Special Attack and Speed, but Rotom has a couple of unique traits. It has a fantastic dual typing that boasts many immunities and resistances that allow it to handle many physical threats, a plethora of status inducing moves, and an unresisted STAB attack combo (Steelix and Magneton the only exceptions). This little plasmatic ghost should never be looked down upon, as it can become quite a nuisance towards the opponent.
