You can always lead with it, or pack donphan/espeon. Works great in UU. Even in RU.
Magneton is also NFE, so you may as well use him instead of Magnimite. I use Evolite Murkrow, but I have to go now, I'll update with a set when I get a chance.
Murkow @ Evolite
nature: Sassy
ability: Mischievous Heart
evs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpD
move1: Perish Song
move2: Mean Look
move3: Roost
move4: Taunt/Fly
im surprised tangela is mentioed. with a evoliteits defense goes to ridcoulus levels. and with acsess to leech seed knock off toxic it could be a excelent wall.
Ah yeah! Do you run the perish-trapping set?
It's better off running No Guard + Dynamic Punch.
That said, Machoke is actually a rather decent Eviolite user.
Machoke isn't so bad, it has nice base attack, but gurdurr coutclasses it
Machoke does have a niche of No Guard + Dynamic Punch though, useful for supplying confusion.
sleep doesnt activate guts, porygon 2 is OU (unless it dropped down, then im being derp) and while i havent tested that tangela, regenerator and leech seed dont really compliment each other as youd have to set it up EVERY time you switch in, tangrowth enjoys those lefties

Pwnd.
I've seen Duosion being used as a great Eviolite user. Gets instant recovery, has the same Base Sp.Atk as Reuniclus and gets better bulk because of Eviolite.
Reuniclus is still bulkier then Duosion even with evolite. I'm gonna assume the standard Reuniclus and Duosion both have max HP and Def with Bold Nature.
Max HP and Def EV Bold Reuniclus = 424 HP + 273 Def = 697 Total
Max HP and Def EV Bold Duosion + Evolite = 334 HP + 218 (1.5) Def = 334 HP + 327 Def = 661 Total
697 > 661
Reuniclus has a lot more HP
I'm not confident about my calculations though, anyone else can confirm my calculations?
Defense is calculated by multiplying the two numbers together.
115752 (Reuniclus) / 109218 (Duosion) = Reuniclus is about 5.98% more bulky.
115752 (Reuniclus) / 109218 (Duosion) = Reuniclus is about 5.98% more bulky.
So much is wrong with that statement. With Eviolite, Tangela is practically begging for Leech Seed or some type of recovery, Regenerator is kind of a bonus. And the set-up comment pretty much goes for many things in the metagame so IDK what you are saying...
Leech Seed is actually better with Regenerator because Leech Seed also benefits the entire team. I'm not sure if you are actually misunderstanding the mechanics of Leech Seed here.
P2 is OU but it's not really that great in OU right now(its like one of the last few) so it does have a chance of popping down. The stats ain't out yet, so just wait.

I know Rhydon was previously mentioned but he walls Arcanine amazingly. Taking a max using a 252/252 set up of 336 (81%) from LO Adamant 252 Arcanine and a max of 63 (0.15%) from Flare Blitz. Sadly he needs to run RestTalk to recover but this bulk is undeniable. So if you have an Arcanine problem run Eviolite Rhydon.
yep, as ive been taking a break of this gen (it sucks, so much power attacks) i hadnt noticed that leech seed stays up when you switch out, my previous post=derpherp, i apologize

even moar herpderp, i dont know what i was thinking, im embarassed

hasn't Leech Seed always stayed until the OPPONENT swapped?
pretty sure it did, but for some reason i thought they changed it this gen, so much changed, nerfed sleep, nerfed encore, nerfed non-attacking strats,
