Other Options
=============
* List some options for the Pokemon user that are plausible but not always recommended due to either being not consistent enough or too outclassed by other Pokemon in the metagame.
*Cross Chop or Brick Break can be used instead of Close Combat to avoid lowering your defenses, but the drop in power is noticable.
*Wide Guard is a good defensive move, but the loss of coverage is rough.
*Assault Vest can be used instead of Flame Orb to improve Hariyama's survivability, but makes you dependant on your opponent's Pokemon to inflict a status and activate Guts.
