Strategy Overview

In the past, Aggron had largely been ignored in favor of the bulkier yet more powerful Rhyperior. The addition of Head Smash to Aggron's movepool, though, allows him to pose a real offensive threat; Aggron has so much raw power that many teams will be forced to sacrifice a Pokemon to deal with him. However, Aggron is plagued with several common weaknesses, and his low Speed means that he will often have to switch out of common threats. Nevertheless, with his many resistances and his sheer power, Aggron can easily punch holes in the opposing team.
