dead account Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I can't help but run skarmory on OU teams. I love that metal bird and its absurdly high defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synchronoise Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) Tankchomp best mon, hands down. He's just so versatile, being able to act as a SR lead in one game to an X-Char check in another to a mon that punishes Voltturn teams, I absolutely adore him. Also itt people who don't know what a tank is Edited October 14, 2015 by Synchronoise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickCrash Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 If I may add, it can be turned from a physical tank with good coverage to a wallbreaking mega or even to a scarfed menace in no time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Snorlax is the best tank because it is Snorlax. I also like TankChomp but shhh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MellowSlinky Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 I'm really sad there's no love for my boy Chestnaught This thing is hella tanky - if you pair it with something that can get rid of flying type mons he can put in a lot of work with some really good move options like spikes, leech seed and spiky shield. Then there's also the Belly Drum sets that let him wallbreak like a mofo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJMistery Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I go for Dragonite. Not even ice type moves are a sure way to OHKO it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJMistery Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Good choices for the low tiers Xiri, I prefer Empoleon in UU as my tank tough. Fun fact: Solrock can wall freaking Primal Groudon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empoleon is a nice tank too - although I like to use it more as an offensive mon to surprise opponents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJMistery Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Do not try it offensive Empoleon in OU tough, ofensive Empoleon, especially that SubPetaya set that used to make Empoleon the deadliest special sweeper on DPPt is sadly something only can be used effectively on UU anymore. Trust me, I tried...

Venox Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I would say reuniclus. i have started to use in only recently,but it can tank physical attack like a champ.not to mention he can learn calm mind as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honchy Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Donphan, because it has incredibly strong att and def stats. Also, it's a cutie patooty~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ironbound Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Depends. I use teams purely in a competitive light, so naturally an HO team won't be expected to take hits, while a balanced or BO archetype will. (I loathe how stall has become these days.) I seem to like using Hippowdon. Sand is one of my preferred archetypes, and is easy to build around. Hippowdon is also garguantuan, and with the right spread can eat hits from many powerful threats in OU, especially since it has access to recovery in Slack Off. It also ably supports the team with Stealth Rock and phazing. Mega Scizor can also act as a bulky offensive stalwart, with greater raw overall bulk than Skarmory, Roost and a slow set-up with Swords Dance.

Genesis Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I have to say most surprising for me is assault vest Dragonite. It tanks fairy and ice moves and usually OHKOs/ 2HKOs anything that comes at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adventurer Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Not the ultimate, but still a great tank: Umbreon. Sometimes it can't save me but other times he rapes whole teams. And nope, if you give me a few turns I don't even need toxic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HughJ Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Mega Aggron is a solid choice for legit matches If you're screwing around Avalugg is a legend And Umbreon is the definition of a lurking sweep machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJMistery Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 I have to say most surprising for me is assault vest Dragonite. It tanks fairy and ice moves and usually OHKOs/ 2HKOs anything that comes at it Please tell me you are joking. The main reason Dragonite is so good at tanking is due to having Roost to repair Multiscale and increase his durability to absurd levels. Assault Vest Dragonite must be the worst Dragonite set since... well, since the bulky Evs+Calm nature Agility set that got posted some months ago, but that's besides the point.

Walpurgis Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Avalugg with investment spdef curse, mirror coat, recover and avalanche/gyro ball. I'm not good at competitive but I think it works. It can take neutral hits from special attackers even with sturdy broken, survive them and respond with mirror coat to take them down instantly.
