err... that's not really much description, but something along with recover/rock slide/toxic/stat upper.

I'm fairly new here, but here is what I think:

[email protected]
Evs: 252 HP, 128 Def, 130 Sp.D

Ingrain
Confuse Ray
Sand Storm
Giga Drain

Cradily @ Leftovers
EVs: 110 HP / 200 Def / 200 SDef
Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk)
- Amnesia / Barrier
- Recover
- Rock Slide
- Toxic


That's what I use. Use the appropriate defensive move for what your team is lacking.

Problem with this setup is that anything resistant to sandstorm will mess you over, especially Skarmory, Forretress or Steelix as you can't switch out either. We use toxic because it deals more damage, and it isn't double edged like sandstorm can be sometimes.

Toxic won't affect steel or poison =\ and some opponents have synchronize.

Maybe there should be a leech seed in there too. It really depends on whether you're lucky and come up against a non-resistant opponent.

The fact is that toxic works on rock/ground types, while sandstorm doesn't. That is also why you use rock slide instead, to deal some damage to pesky Skarm. Steelix messes you up either way, but not everyone can be perfect.

Leech seed on cradily = "let's give wonder guard to Mew" Thank goodness, no it can't learn it.
