Stone Edge - high critical hits
X-scissor - as you said
Earthquake - the best ground move, cover steel weakness
Rock Polish - good move for Armaldo low speed
that's my moveset...

V gen:

Let's make it a nice tank:

Hone Claws - raises ACC and ATT
Stone Edge - STAB, strong, more accurate with Hone Claws
X-Scissor - STAB, strong
Earthquake - strong, coverage / Brick Break - quite strong, coverage

Armaldo @ Life Orb

Trait: Battle Armor

EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe

Jolly Nature (+Spe, -SpA)

  • Swords Dance
  • X-Scissor
  • Stone Edge
  • Earthquake

Swords Dance boosts its already high attack.
X-Scissor is STAB and hits Psychic Grass and Dark types hard.
Stone Edge is STAB as well and hits Fire Flying and Bug types, helping out X-Scissor.
Earthquake rounds out the coverage, and hits Steel types hard and is a powerful neutral attack against Fighting types.
