The "Wall" Thread -Tanks welcome also!

This thread is dedicated to walls and tanks!


Pokemon with high DEF/Sp.DEF/HP are stalling Pokemon, a wall. They can take hits and heal itself/the team, but it can't do much else. A tank on the other hand... is another story. These pokemon can take hits and deal out damage.


In this thread, you may
-post movesets for walls.
-discuss strategy
-help people with they're wall/tank.

Walls and Tanks don't even need to have attacks. Status conditions can save the day.



This is what to look for in a wall/tank moveset:
item: Leftovers. The continual HP gain is a must for wall/tanks.

-HP Restore. Sometimes Leftovers doesn't cut it. This is when moves like Recover come in handy.
-Status affliction

- moves like Toxic will slowly whittle down your opponents health. Most pokemon can't survive long enough to take the hits, but with a Wall/Tank, this is a perfect move.

-Double Team -frowned on in competitive battling, increasing your evasion can make the strongest wall near invincible.

-Substitute -not only does a substitute stop you from taking heavy damage, if it survives long enough, you will be healed by leftovers, HP regaining moves, and your opponent can't touch you.

-attack -not all Walls/Tanks need this, but for some it is a must. Teach them powerful moves that can take down PKMN that status conditions can't touch.


It's official! This thread is now MOD approved!

I sent a PM asking MOD GAMEMASTER149 if he approved of this thread. This was his response:

Re: Do you approve?
"I don't see anything wrong with it. I wouldn't know why it would need to be deleted. Just make sure to avoid it becoming a chat thread or otherwise a place to host some spam and you'll be good to go. "

I then asked if I was allowed to post "MOD APPROVED" in this thread. This was his response:

Re: Do you approve?
"I suppose so. I don't find anything wrong with the thread, and if you know for sure it doesn't violate any NSider rules, or Posting Guideline rules, you should be fine. "

So this thread is now MOD APPROVED.

THIS MEANS THAT I WILL TOLERATE NO SPAMMING, OR OTHER VIOLATIONS OF THE RULES, WHATSOEVER!

Just to be crystal clear, here are rules:

1. NO Spamming
2. NO "general discussion" aka "chit-chat" aka SPAM
3. NO flaming
And all other Nsider Rules.


Follow the rules or Snorlax will eat you!

Also, as my school started last week, I won't be able to update this as often as before. I will try to get to it every night, and if I can't, on the weekends.
As always, EV's and Natures are needed. And remember, I do not come up with these. You do.
