Dondozo @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Unaware
Tera Type: Dragon
EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpD
Impish Nature
- Liquidation
- Body Press
- Rest
- Sleep Talk
Dondozo makes a splash as one of OU's toughest walls! With its massive HP and Defense stats, as well as Unaware, Dondozo can withstand just about any physical hit from prominent threats like Great Tusk and Dragonite. Liquidation is a strong STAB move without any drawbacks, allowing Dondozo to easily deal large amounts of damage to foes like Cinderace and Volcarona, while Body Press leverages its high Defense stat to 2HKO common Pokemon like Kingambit, Baxcalibur, and Roaring Moon. Rest keeps Dondozo healthy and allows it to act as a status absorber for the rest of the team, and Sleep Talk keeps it from being too passive. Tera Dragon negates Dondozo's weaknesses to Grass- and Electric-type attacks while retaining its Fire- and Water-type resistances. Dondozo pairs well with specially defensive teammates like Clodsire and Skeledirge to form a strong defensive core. Dondozo also struggles against physically defensive Pokemon like Rotom-Wash and Corviknight, so it needs teammates like Meowscarada and Volcarona to break through them.
