Tank Needed

[Overwhelming_Latias]

So what should I go for? My team (and movesets etc) are here, albeit with a Blissey added to the ranks.

I really need a Pokemon that can take physical hits, and was considering Donphan. What do you think?

Your help is much appreciated.

Skarmory is the best physical wall imo.

Weezing has some nice defense, and can avoid the EQers, and it can be either special or physical, though I like the STABed Sludge Bomb, and Explosion is nice on the way out. Plus, the Haze is a cool bonus.

How about Milotic and Snorlax?
They both have excellent defenses and high HP!

If you want Milotic then here it is:

Milotic@Leftovers
Bold nature
Ev's 242 Defense,200 Sp.Attack,42 HP,10 Speed,16 Sp.Defense

Recover
Hypnosis/Mirror Coat/Confuse Ray
Surf
Confuse Ray/Ice Beam


If you want Snorlax then here it is:

Snorlax@Leftovers/Chesto Berry
Careful nature
Ev's 242 Sp.Defense,16 Defense,200 HP,52 Attack
Note:If you don't like the Ev Placement then you change them to your liking.

Body Slam/Return
Curse
Shadow Ball/Rest
Counter/Amnesia


Body Slam is there if you want to cause Paralysis,just so you know.


Other Snorlax Options:

Snorlax@Chesto Berry
Careful nature
Ev's 252 Sp.Defense/HP,6 Defense or Attack

Curse
Rest
Return
Shadow Ball

or

Snorlax@Leftovers
Adamant nature
Ev's 252 Attack/Sp.Defense,6 HP

Curse
Substitute
Focus Punch
Return/Shadow Ball


Then there is Cradily:

Cradily@Leftovers
Careful nature
Ev's 200 Defense/Sp.Defense,110 HP
or: 252 HP/Sp.Defense,6 Defense
Note:Again,if you don't like the Ev placement then change them to your liking.

Confuse Ray
Amnesia/Barrier
Recover
Sludge Bomb/Rock Slide


Cradily can work,but I think other people here can make Cradily a better Pokemon.

Shuckle is the pokemon with very high defense, Steelix too.

 

[aipomkong]

yes but shuckle sucks ***

 

[OgLoc187]

Steelix is the best choice but watch out for all the fire/water attacks.

 

[DragonDance]

If Regice goes under "Special," so does Articuno.
