what is a good nature and moveset for dosiadon?
 
is he an overused pokemon?
 
Either Physical Sweeper or Physical Wall.

Dosaidon@Leftovers/Choice Band
Adamant Nature
EVs: 252 Atk, 252 Spd, 4 HP (If Leftovers); 252 Atk, 180 Spd, 76 HP
-Earthquake
-Rock Slide/Stone Edge/Rock Blast
-Megahorn
-Snow Slide/Rock Cart/Crunch/Focus Punch/Arm Hammer
If you run Leftovers, I'd go Rock Cart. With Max Speed with a neutral nature, you get 352 Speed. And what is going to outspeed you that's a serious threat, apart from Starmie?

Dosaidon@Leftovers
Impish Nature
EVs: 196 HP, 200 Def, 16 Atk, 96 SpcDef
-Substitute
-Earthquake
-Counter/Stealth Rock/Roar
-Rock Blast
Incredibly solid Physical Wall.

What's the point of using Arm Hammer when you've got Stone Edge and Earthquake, and STAB in both of them?

I prefer SD on Dosaidon though. This is what I would do.

Water and Ice types And I'm just callin' AOA
 
Adamant, I guess.

Stone Edge
Earthquake
Megahorn (or thunderfang, if you're willing to breed for it)
Arm Hammer
 
Like I said before why are you suggesting Arm Hammer when you've got STAB Stone Edge and EQ to do the job? T-Fang over Arm Hammer on Gatr's set please, if you're the AOA type. Otherwise, stick to T Meister and my sets.

I'll agree on that. But I personally think AOA physical sweeper is the way to go. 140 base attack needs no pumping up.

Dosaidon's other function in a team is resisting Normal / Flying attacks and to a lesser extent, physical attacks. Impish lets it boost its defense and Swords Dance lets it hit stuff hard.

It really depends on what the thread owner wants though. AOA sweeper needs Choice Band though.

Shiftrys and Cacturnes with arm Hammer

Neutral Stone Edge with STAB, without crit hit - 150 base power

Neutral Stone Edge with STAB and crit hit - 300 base power

SE Arm hammer - 200 base power

SE Snow Slide - 240 base power

Anyway, both Shiftry and Cacturne die to STAB Stone Edge with their defenses. btw nobody sane leaves something that's 4x weak against Grass attacks against something that is guaranteed to have one, especially one with STAB.
