I was at the doctor's the other day getting a Physical to make sure I don't have cancer. :)

Turns out it was just constipation.
 
Blaarr everyone wants physical this = Deck's mixed balanced pogey.


HP: 105
Attack: 90
Defense: 105
SA: 80
SD: 90
Speed: 65
535 BST

Not overpowering, but with a good distribution and faster than Swampert/TTar. 105/105/90 lets it take some hits and if it gets a stat-up like Bulk Up ir should do quite well.
 
Physical. Physical ghosts are a bit lacking. I suppose you could say that special fighters are a bit lacking too, but when you compare Infernape and Lucario to Banette and Dusknoir it's clear which side needs more help.
 
i say physical, with more Atk than Sp. Atk - but with more Sp. Def than Def, something like 75/100/90/80/95/85 (speed last, BST: 525)

EDIT: I just noticed my suggested base stats have the numbers 75, 80, 85, 90, 95 and 100. Whata ya know?

Witha STAB fighting move anything that is immune to Seismic Toss can simply CM up and beat Blissey one-to-one. Mismagius is an example, and she uses HP [fight] off no stat and wins. The same can't be done with Bulk Up though, as you need the Sdef boosts to stop Blissey Breaking your sub.
 
Physical, for the same reasons I said before, i.e., the STAB Special options are, while powerful (maybe too much?), definitely boring. Only Shadow Ball and Aura Sphere? Blah. Give me Shadow Claw, Shadow Punch, Shadow Sneak, Lick (xD), Force Palm, Cross Chop, Double Kick, Mack Punch, Sky uppercut, etc, etc.

Because in case you didn't notice, we chose balanced. If you have balanced leaning either special or mixed, you can give it enough SD for it's Subs to withstand Ice Beam. If you focus on physical just like every other plain vanilla fighting type then you're basically wasting an opportunity to make a foolproof Blissey counter that could also theretically take out Skarmory.
 
I would like to see it be special, which would give it a decent chance of countering Skarmbliss. However, I definitely don't want it mixed, as mixed and balanced is a little too adaptable.
