Aggron?

Akirakun

Master PKMN Breeder
I wanted to know which is better to use: Aggron or Rypherior.

Now I know that Rypherior isnt AS effective against ground types as Aggron, seeing as Aggron takes x4 dmg to it. However, His defense is fricking immense! Not to mention his attack isnt half bad as well, serving as a good tankish PKMN. What's your opinion and what moveset, ev's and nature should I make either? Although, the nature should be the easiest to think of.
 
Aggron is simply a UU. Steel/Rock sucks. Rhyperior has sweeping potential and large HP to back its already good Defense and abysmal Special Defense up.
 
Aggron should not leave UU. It has beastly Defense, true. However, that Defense isn't as good against the hard hitters of OU. It's biggest loss is it's typing. Having 4x weak to Fighting and Ground is absolutely unacceptable. It would have a hard tim walling the big threats of OU, who could destroy Aggron with no trouble.

Rhyperior has bad typing as well, but gets an awesome movepool and ability to go with it. It's Attack is monstrous as well. Grass is not too common of an offensive type, so all it really has to watch out for is Water. It's weaknesses are mitigated by Solid Rock, letting it switch in on almost any physical attack, even ones it is weak to. It's not perfect, but far superior to Aggron in pretty much every sense.
