I'm thinking about using this a my physical sweeper for the frontier.
Marowak: Thick Club
Rock Head
252 atk/spd
- Bonemerang
- Rock Slide
- Double-Edge
- Swords Dance
is this good?
and what nature should it be, jolly or adamant?

 

[Belgian Pokemaster]

Well,it's a good moveset.
For the nature,pick jolly,because thick club already boosts his attack.

 

[Reno]

imo, adamant. he is too slow for jolly to be effective, so the attack boost is great.

 

[totallylost]

i think adamant will work better. you can always get a baton passer to give it speed

 

[Sniper123]

Besides Adamant you could try Impish to boost Def even though Adamant is better.

 

[Swellow_91]

Adamant > Jolly
Marowak is already slow, so Jolly is unnecessary.

 

[DarkPsychoBoost]

I suggest you replace Rock Slide with Earthquake as it is more accurate and gets STAB

 

[aragornbird]

Besides Adamant you could try Impish to boost Def.

Why would you do that? Adamant always.

I suggest you replace Rock Slide with Earthquake as it is more accurate and gets STAB

I hope you made a typo and meant Bonemerang instead of Earthquake, seeing as how putting two Ground attacks on one Pokemon is retarded and Rock Slide is necessary for Flying types.

 

[pathophobe]

OK, thanks.
I'll go with adamant.

 

[Sceptile Leaf Blade]

Maybe you can replace Rock Slide with Ancientpower, it requires lot of breeding, but it is possible. I thought the breeding chain was
Kabuto/Omanyte > Totodile > Marowak, but I'm not sure. Ancientpower may be weaker than Rock Slide, but it is more accurate, and if you get the stat boost, you are nearly invincible. (stupid sheer cold Dewgong with quick claw)

 

[Reno]

rock slide>ancient power always. it is more powerful. has flinch bonus.

 

[aragornbird]

Not in Marowak's case (too slow). Rock Slide just beats out Ancientpower since 15 extra power is a lot better than having 100% accuracy.
