Investing in Lycanroc's bulk would be a waste because it is so bad as such, Attack is maxed out to give Lycanroc an offensive presence. 252 Speed EVs and a Jolly Nature allow Lycanroc to take advantage of its Speed tier.
For example, if Mega Lopunny tries to use Fake Out to break the sash, Lycanroc's Speed will rise and it will be able to outspeed Mega Lopunny on the next turn and get Stealth Rock up. Steadfast is the only viable ability for this set, although it can be useful in some instances. Suicide Stealth Rock LeadĪ Focus Sash is the preferred item as it guarantees Lycanroc two turns on the field, which it probably wouldn't have otherwise due to its terrible bulk. One of the only viable sets I can think of right now is a suicide Stealth Rock lead for hyper offensive teams, which Midday Lycanroc could perform well due to its high Speed and access to both Taunt and Stealth Rock, although even this is severely outclassed by already popular suicide Stealth Rock leads such as Azelf and Garchomp. Offensively, Midday Lycanroc might've been decent - it could utilize a Choice Band well given its high Speed and good Attack, but its movepool is extremely barren - the only notable coverage moves are Crunch, Fire Fang, Brick Break, and Thunder Fang, all which are relatively weak in the latter's case or provide bad coverage in the former's case. This is only compounded by both forms' terrible bulk. Defensively, both forms are terrible, as Rock by itself is a poor defensive typing, being weak to common attacking types such as Water, Ground, and Fighting, priority moves such as Mach Punch, Aqua Jet and Bullet Punch, and having poor synergy. Not seeing a lot of potential in either of these Pokemon.
