[OVERVIEW]
- Dusclops has a decent niche in the ZU metagame as a extremely bulky wall, having good defenses in 40/130/130 with access to eviolite to go even further makes it a great wall in the metagame
- Dusclops has access to a decent support movepool which help it to get the job done
- Dusclops is really vulnerable to taunt and has no offensive pressure at all
- Dusclops has a glaring Knock off weakness and is really vulnerable after Eviolite is taken
- While Dusclops has Rest as recovery, Rest makes Dusclops easily exploited by some pokemon which can abuse of its passive nature

Moves
========
Seismic Toss is Dusclops main attacking move, which makes sure it isn't going to be fully passive and helps to cripple opposing pokemon, Night Shade is another option over Seismic toss, but generally Seismic Toss is better. Will-O Wisp helps Dusclops to cripple Physical attackers which could try to use it as a setup fodder while also providing a little chip damage to them. Rest is Dusclops main way of recovery, which also allows it to get rid of status. Sleep Talk can be to abuse of Rest's sleep turns while also leaving it not fully passive. Haze is also usable to make sure Dusclops isn't going to be setup fodder of pokemon who could ignore Will-O-Wisp, such as Monferno.
Set Details
========
Due to Dusclops being extremely bulky and having access to Will-O-Wisp, It can choose to shift EVs and nature for Calm, making it a incredible mixed wall with great utility. Bold Nature can be used as well, allowing Dusclops to handle most Physical attackers of the tier (...)
