For example, Swellow holding a Flame Orb with Guts can abuse a STAB Facade, along with a very high speed. Are there any other Pokemon that are good with Guts?
Guts isn't used as much in the OU meta, but Swellow and other Pokemon love to abuse Toxic Orb with STAB Facade for extreme results. I will say, however, that there is one Pokemon who loves to make use of that ability and that would be Conkeldurr, who gets Guts naturally. Assault Vest Conk with Knock Off is one of the biggest threats right now being able to shut down Pokemon by taking their items and dealing heavy damage with STAB Drain Punches. It gets even stronger when it can absorb a Will-o-Wisp or a Toxic for your team and completely flip the table on your opponent.
Conkeldurr @ Assault Vest Ability: Guts EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SDef Adamant Nature -Knock Off -Drain Punch -Mach Punch -Ice Punch
I've explained Knock Off and Drain Punch already, but Mach Punch is for a good STAB priority hit and Ice Punch can nail Gliscor and Landorus.
Pokemon who get Guts.
My Rankings: Bold is best Italics are okay No markdown is decent but not recommended
Swellow Ursaring Conkeldurr Throh Hariyama Luxray Flareon Raticate Machamp Heracross
There isn't a single Pokemon out there that doesn't welcome Guts into its arsenal. The boost in power and immunity to burn's Attack reducing side effect make Guts a boon for physical attackers and one of the best abilities in the game. Feel free to slap it on whatever you can for a greater array of switch in opportunities on enemy Toxic, Will-O-Wisp, and Thunder Wave attempts. For a more aggressive approach, you can even give your Guts Pokemon a status Orb and have it firing off superbly destructive attacks every game. Smogon.
Conkeldurr is good with Guts. Conkeldurr @flame orb -Protect- scouting and activating the Flame Orb -Drain Punch- STAB -Facade- obvious reasons -Knock Off- coverage and sometimes can render a Pokemon useless
I just saw nobody said Zangoose. It has toxic boost kinda same with guts. Just not burn. Use this set: 252 attack 252 speed 4 hp Jolly nature Toxic Orb Ofc Toxic Boost ability (immunity doesnt works) Close Combat Facade Aerial Ace Protect/Swords Dance
Protect is activating Toxic Boost Swords dance is increasing damage This set is as effective as guts set This set covers fighting type and facade STAB and makes an attack has 315 power with stab toxic boost and status affection. With swords dance usually an OHK-O move. Thats the best set I use
