What are the best dual screeners?

For me, Bronzong is the best, but in lower tiers, we have Flaffly, Serperior, Audino and something like this. But w/ little of prediction, Bronzong is immortal and can set up DS with relative ease. I've seen some sets running Lum Berry, sacrifing turns of Screen for durability, but that's your decision now ;)

I don't play triples much and can't give good advice there, but in singles Espeon is definitely my favorite. Being immune to taunt and preventing entry hazards from being set up with baton pass to avoid pursuit. It's hard top that even with bulk

I personally have used Espeon a lot in OU and I can counter just about anything. I first get dual screens up, depending on what type of move I'm expecting b/c it's faster than almost anything, then either Psychic it with 252 Sp. Atk or HP Ground. I would be walled by Honchkrow, but I just don't see it that much in OU.

I like Cresselia because it has tremendous bulk and can use Lunar Dance to heal one of your Pokemon. Azelf is also always reliable and works really well as a suicide dual screener.

I've been using Virizion for my Dual Screener lately & it's worked extremely well, much to my surprise. With his base 129 Special Defense & solid base HP stat of 91, he can setup screens on much more threats than Latias/Os, Azelf & Espeon can, mainly due to his resistance to Pursuit. Finally, his base 108 Speed stat allows him to use Taunt to shrut down several entry hazard users & setup sweepers.
