    ok here is what i have

    <suggestions for 1st move?>
    Sludge Bomb
    Crunch
    Earthquake

    attached item would be something like black sunglasses or soft sand

    how does that sound so far?
     
    @_@ Focus Band wouldn't help at all. Granbull is a bit too slow to strike first agaisnt most other Pokemon, so it'll just die the next turn without making a move. Same goes for the Psy/Fly thing to "get an advantage" against Fighting types. It's slow. Not to mention it's only Psychic or Flying type attack would be HP Fly/Psychic.

    And it's defenses are decent enough...

    Granbull@Leftovers - Adamant
    EVs: 252 Attaack, 252 HP, 6 Sp. Def or Def
    Earthquake
    Return
    Shadow Ball
    Brick Break/Focus Punch/Bulk Up

    Someone in the actual Movesets and Strategies could do better than me.

    *goes to poke a mod of some sort*
     
    I moved it for ya, Simon ^_^
     
    lol..Presuming its RSFRLGE evidenlty

    Granbull[adamant]@leftovers
    EVs - Hp,Att,Def
    Substitute
    focus punch
    return
    shadow ball

    alternatively go with a rest/bulk up/return/earthquake or shadow ball
    set.Both work FIne.

    IF it happens to be GSC ur talking abt then...
    Granbull
    -return
    -shadow ball
    -earthquake
    -rest/fireblast
     
    The only problem I see with Choice Band/Focus Punch is that it really only works once before you have to switch out. However, with the following Intimidate when you switch back in, you'll increase your defenses. Watch out for Clear-Body/White Smoke users, though most (if not all) are weak against Earthquake.
     
    Therefore.... what was the purpose of you saying that at all?

    And not only dragons learn dragon dance. *points at Lapras*
     
    Well, T-Tar is more draconic than Lapras... I think...

    Anyways, back to Granbull. Now that we're talking about it... I have a craving to use it. If you want to play around, try a Heal Bell set. Is Reflect and Heal Bell Legal? I can't check right now.

    252 HP, 252 Special Defense, 6 Speed
    @Leftovers
    Reflect/Charm
    Heal Bell
    Return
    Thunder Wave

    It's pretty cute, don't you think?
     
    That's not really a problem. There are plenty of movesets out there with only one attack and some with no actual direct-damage-dealing attacks at all.
     
    That's the point. It's not meant to attack. It's meant to defend. Granbull's massive attack will power Return, but this Granbull is designed to take as little damage as possible while strengthening the team. Reflect is for Pseudo-Passing, Heal Bell is obvious, Return is so you're not helpless, and Thunder Wave is for annoying status that keeps you and your team alive longer.
     
    *sighs* Let me explain.

    This Granbull is NOT an attacker. It's role is like that of a Cleric, except it can't heal itself without leftovers or Rest. Because of that, it will never be as good as Miltank or Blissey or even Parasect at being a Cleric. But without Heal Bell, this set is WORTHLESS. Heal Bell removes status from ALL your Pokemon (sans those that are fainted or have soundproof as an ability).

    And I'm just going to assume that you meant to say 'replace Heal Bell with Facade'.
     
    I just checked, and Granbull does not learn Softboiled.

    Now my head hurts, so I'm going to bed.
