I guess you could use CB Hippo, which hits surprisingly hard lol. Beware of burns if you do though .-. Ice Fang could be used to hit Gliscor, Stone Edge hits ho-oh and yawn could be used. Hippo has a dearth of viable options

move 3: Whirlwind
move 4: Earthquake
ability: Sand Stream
item: Leftovers
nature: Impish
evs: 252 hp/252 defense/4 attack
Moves
========
- Stealth Rock- indispensable hazard
- Slack Off is used for instant recovery
- Whirlwind for phazing set-up sweepers or just shuffling for hazards damage
- Toxic for annoying the shit out of anything not immune to it
- Earthquake so it's not completely taunt bait and can hit mgar, do some chip damage, etc.
Set Details
========
- Leftovers for longevity
- Max Hp max defense impish to tank physical hits like a boss
- Can check pretty much any physical booster
- Annoying as fuck
Usage Tips
========
- Don't switch it into special attackers (duh) hippo ain't tanking no spacial rend
- Ho-oh burns suck balls :( just slack off more in that case
- Zeke can carry Dmeteor, so beware of that
- Slack off frequently, Hippo will still be 3HKO'ed (almost 2hko'ed) by strong physical attacks
- Surprise toxics suck ass balls
Team Options
========
- clerics (chansey, blissey, xerneas)Xerneas also shuts down zekrom really well alingside hippo
- strong special sponges (again chansey, aegislash)
- ogre check (palkia, av amoong, av slowking)
- grass types are cool
- ice resist, ie. ogre, etc
- bulky waters pair well with hippo, as it checks krom 4 them
- Refresh Cm Waterceus likes hippo checking krom
- Spdef ogre acts as a sort of status absorber
- Frrro can provide a nice water resist and a hazards Jcore
