>>23460776>>23460801>>23460823There's three things a Rotom-H can do to Haxorus:
>status it>Trick-Scarf it>Volt Switch on itSince you knew it was running a Life Orb, the best play in the first case is to hit EQ. Same goes for the second case, since getting Scarf-locked into EQ is still going to earn you a kill before getting forced out, and the only reason not to use EQ in the third case is if the Rotom is Scarfed.
Boosting in front of a Rotom-H with the assumption that you've forced it out is almost always a terrible idea. Even using Sub or Taunt instead of EQ will fuck you over against TrickScarf variants.
