    Well, I need suggestions on what a pretty good defensive/Tanking water pkmn would be. I had Wailord in this spot for my team, but i just learned how bad he is...
    I just want a few suggestions on what some other water tanks are, they don't have to be extrememly good, just viable.
    Thx in advance
     
    go with milotic, get a calm one, 252 special defence, 252 hp, 4 hp, give it recover, surf, ice beam and toxic, it can survive quite alot of hits
     
    but...the defence cant reach alot outa 280 even with beneficial nature...its better being pure special wall
     
    A underrated tank. Slowbro

    A common Tank. Vaperon
     
    well...wat im saying is theres no point in pumping defence if its not gonna go very far.

    slowbro is very good aactually with access to amnesia...and vaporeon is like the subbing king
     
    Milotic, Vaporeon, are both very common tanks. Slowbro's actually pretty good, and yes, way underrated. Suicune is a very good tank also. There are a lot of bulky waters but these guys are the most common.

    Swampert and Blastoise are fine tanks on my team but i assume you'd want to do better. :P
     
    You guys are getting this all wrong, milotic should have 252 def. split the rest between hp and special def. Check out the ultimate team thread, it has milotic on the team.
     
    Here's a good list of Bulky Waters:
    • Suicune
    • Milotic
    • Slowbro
    • Vaporeon
    • Swampert

    I use Suicune, but Swampert is also a good Tank.. Esp w/ HP Ice...
     
    or u can always try wishing vaporeon...

    calm nature, 252 special defence, 252 hp, 4 special attack
    leftovers
    >sub
    >wish
    >acid armour (not sure)
    >toxic/ice beam/surf
     
    Actually, this is better:

    Vaporeon
    - Surf
    - Wish
    - Ice Beam
    - Roar / Baton Pass
    Item: Leftovers
    Trait: Water Absorb
    Nature: Relaxed (+Def, -Spd)
    EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SAtk
     
    Wish is fine on vaporeon but you'd want haze on it

    Vaporeon@leftovers
    water absorb
    bold
    200hp/252def/58sp.def
    -haze
    -surf
    -wish/aqua ring
    -acid armor/toxic/ice beam

    you can choose to make it a baton passer actually and pass on acid armor.
     
    Thx so far, One thing makes me curious though, What makes SlowBro better than Slowking
     
    Slowbro has higher Defense, where as Slowking has higher SpDef. It's more a matter of choice now, since the physical/special changed in D/P (when water was only weak to special based moves).
