Okay, My team (http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?t=285543) REALLY needs a Physical Wall. My options are Rhyperior, Steelix, and Dusknoir.

;464;
Rhyperior@Leftovers
Adamant
Solid Rock
252 HP/80 Atk/176 Def
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge
-Substitute
-Megahorn/Avalanche
Basically the same Pokemon of the Week set.

;208;
Steelix@Leftovers
Impish
Sturdy
252 Def/200 Atk/56 Sp. Def
-Earthquake
-Stone Edge
-Ice Fang/Thunder Fang
-Crunch/Explosion
Physical Defender and a strong Physical Attacker.

;477;
Dusknoir@Leftovers
Impish
Pressure
252 HP/52 Def/204 Sp. Def
-Shadow Sneak
-Thunder Punch
-Will-o-Wisp
-Pain Split
Again, same set from Pokemon of the Week. Don't know how it defends with few Defense Evs...

Any suggestions are welcome.
 
I would choose Ryperior only because it is good in offence and defence thus serving a dual purpose.
 
Well dusknior hands down is the best wall there he has max 405 in both deffs an he is immuned to two types o.O so he by far out ranks both of your other choices he also is a awsome counter for gyarados so what i'm trying to say here is....
PICK DUSKNIOR thank you ^^
 
I would pick Dusknoir too. Rhyperior still falls to super-effective attacks even with Solid Rock. Dusknoir is a Hera and a Gyara counter. Steelix is 2HKO with the ever so common Earthquake( I think I battled one and he fell to two Earthquakes so I don't know).
 
Yeah as much as I don't like dusknoir i must agree that he is the best choice seeing as he is the only 1 w/ a recovery move
 
1. TEAM RATE
2. Ryperior is a tank not a wall. He's ment to take hits and hit back. He shouldn't be your only defense.
3. Steelixs has limited offense, he's not bad and probably underated. His only hopes for damage is gyro ball (with the right nature) earthquake or explosion.
4. Duskinior is the best wall here and your set is pretty standard, go with fire punch over thunder punch cause you can burn gyrados but you can't burn hera so fire punch is his only effective option against hera.
5. You can just use those berries that incress happines but lower stats on that shiny lopbunny till each stat won't go lower (those berries lower evs) than you'll have a "untoched" pokemon
 
if your using dusknoir as an anti- spin physical wall, id give it a full 252 Defense EVs
 
Max HP, yes. If I maxed out Defense,how would it stand up to special attacks?
p.s. Thanx for the berry advice!
 
No single rates. Post the 5 other members of your team so we can see what your team is working with.

repost if you want to, with your team.
