Machoke

Machoke takes on the surprising role of a physical tank for stall teams in BW PU. Machoke's physical bulk after investment and Eviolite, combined with its lack of common physical weaknesses, lets it take many neutral hits; Pokemon such as Monferno and Torterra will even struggle to 4HKO it. On top of that, Machoke is a lot less passive than other walls like Klang; even without investment, Machoke's Dynamic Punch still hurts common threats like Scraggy and Monferno. However, Machoke's lack of common resistances, inability to use Leftovers, and reliance on Rest for recovery cuts deeply into its longevity.
