Who is the better bulky watter spinner? blastoise or tentacruel?

Question

Who can use rapid-spin better and get rid of rock,fire and ground types the best?

Answer 1

Blastoise.

Here's a stat check:

Tentacruel:

HP: 80
Defense: 65
Special Defense: 120
Speed: 100

Blastoise:

HP: 79
Defense: 100
Special Defense: 105
Speed: 78

Thanks to superior defense and mmore well-rounded defensive stats, it is easy to see why.

Note: Tentacruel has access to Poison moves, to counter Fairies, so you might want to consider it

Note 2: Mega-Blastoise has excellent offensive power, a great ability, and access to moves to exploit the ability.

So, it can hit Fairies just as hard, albeit without the Super-Effectiveness.
