Strategy Overview

Bronzong's outstanding base 116 Defense and Special Defense stats, combined with its unique typing in the tier which grants it eight resistances and two immunities, make it an impressive tank. Bronzong takes powerful attacks from all-out attackers such as Cinccino, Flygon, and Weavile with ease, and it heavily damages them with Gyro Ball in return. Bronzong also has a handful of support moves such as Stealth Rock, Hypnosis, and Gravity. In addition, Bronzong can even play an offensive role with Trick Room because it OHKOes Pokemon such as Nidoking and Raikou. Unfortunately, Bronzong's downfall is lack of reliable recovery, making it worn down by multiple attacks. Nonetheless, Bronzong is an astounding wall and can aid your team with proper support.
