Bitch I'm a Diamondback
Pros:
-Monstrous Physical Defense
-Good Attack
-Pretty good typing provides a plethora of exploitable resistances
-Its ability gives it a place on a great 6th Generation team archetype, Sand
-Better offensive typing than Mega Aggron
-Decent Special Defense, surpassing that of its largest competitor: Mega Aggron
-It's speed, or lack thereof, can be utilized by giving it a very high powered STAB being Gyro Ball
cons:
-Faces heavy competition from Mega Aggron as it has a better typing and ability defensively
-Weak to 4 common attacking types
-Won't outspeed crap
