Samtendo09
Ability: Light Power
Name of the Pokemon: Wigglytuff
Role(s): Physical Wallbreaker, Choice Band, Hazard Setter, Bulk Up Setup, Assault Vest
Type:
Abilities: Thick Fat / Defiant | Compound Eyes
Stat Distribution: 100 / 120 / 55 / 65 / 80 / 75 | BST: 505
Movepool Additions: Glitter Slap(!), Bulk Up, Stomping Tantrum
Movepool Removals: Knock Off
Custom Elements: Glitter Slap - Gunk Shot Fairy-type clone; 120 BP and 80% accuracy; non-contact; 30% chance to decrease the target's Speed by 1.
Justification: Taking a page from Type Optimization (but not to the crazy level from that Pet Mod) as a horrifying wallbreaker with bad Defense and make it Physical and retain its original Typing, this Wigglytuff will be rough against Cofagrigus and can team up with the latter to deal with other Special Attackers like Meganium and Flygon does to reasonable Special Bulk. It can also setup with Bulk Up or run Defiant to counter Parting Shot. However, it will have troubles against Tapu Bulu who will give it Burn and smash it out with Grassy Terrain Wood Hammer, and Nihilego can survive any of its hit, avoid Stomping Tantrum with Levitate and have Venom Slam to spite it further, while Glitter Slap is NVE against it.
Name of the Pokemon: Camerupt
Role(s): Special Wallbreaker, Choice Specs, Choice Scarf, Setup Sweeper (Calm Mind), Hazard Setter (Stealth Rock, Spikes)
Type:
Abilities: Solid Rock / Competitive | Berserk
Stat Distribution: 85 / 65 / 80 / 110 / 90 / 70 | BST: 505
Movepool Additions: Earth Combust(!), Scald, Calm Mind, Spikes
Movepool Removals: Flash Cannon
Custom Elements: Earth Combust - Thousand Arrows Special clone; 90 BP and 100% accuracy; inflict neutral hit on Flying-type and Pokémon with Levitate regardless of other type and make them grounded until they switch out.
Justification: Although not able to deal with Nihilego without Earth Combust or Scald (the latter preferably as an Utility-move against Pokémon that resist Fire-type Lava Plume), it can do so with Earth Combust.
252+ SpA Camerupt Thousand Arrows vs. 252 HP / 252 SpD Nihilego: 408-480 (100.4 - 118.2%) -- guaranteed OHKO
Of course, it do need this move to break Nihilego. That said, it is slow, and even if going crazy with Choice Scarf Eruption, Nihilego or Assault Vest Meganium/Tapu Bulu can put a stop to this. Camerupt can also setup sweep and set Hazards like Stealth Rocks and Spikes. Competitive is a soft counter against Flygon's Mythical Presence and Parting Shot. That said, it have no way to heal itself, and a 4x weakness to Water is really painful, even if using Solid Rock.
