Conkeldurr or Machamp?

Question

Who is a bigger powerhouse? List pros and cons of both pokemon please.

Answer 1

Machamp

Pros

• It's no guard ability gives it the insurance of hitting, wich makes dynamic punch hit and cause confusion, you can add stone edge, for coverage and a critical chance
• It has average defenses and decent HP

Cons

• Bad base speed

Moveset Item : Choice scarf / Focus sash

Dynamic Punch(confusion and main attack) - Stone Edge(coverage) - Earthquake(coverage) - Payback(coverage)

Conkeldurr

Pros

• It has an outstanding attack and a good defense, the perfect bulk
• It has high hp and can take some special attacks

Cons

• Bad speed
• Predictable moveset

Moveset item : Leftlovers

Bulk Up(setup) - Mach Punch(priority) - Drain Punch(hp recovery) - Payback(ghosts)

I personally recommend conkeldurr over machamp because it has more attack and defenses, and mach punch covers its lack of speed

Comments

Don't forget about its Guts ability. You could give it a Flame Orb, and the burn would raise its attack by 50%. Any status would raise its attack by 50%.
