Roselia

Roselia's bulk and defensive typing allow it to solidly check dangerous special attackers such as Jellicent, Victreebel, and Omastar. Its access to Spikes and ability to absorb Toxic Spikes give it good utility, and Synthesis and Natural Cure provide it with greater longevity than other entry hazard setters and allow it to absorb status. Furthermore, Roselia's good STAB combination and decent Special Attack prevent it from being overly passive and allow it to pressure removers like Lurantis and Hitmonchan in one way or another. However, Roselia's defenses are easily exploited due to its low physical bulk and reliance on Eviolite, and its otherwise good defensive typing leaves it vulnerable to Flying-, Ice-, and Psychic-types. This is especially notable because it enables removers like Alolan Sandslash as well as Skuntank to switch in and exploit it. Roselia also faces competition from Qwilfish and Ferroseed as spikers, as the former is faster and has superior utility options, while the latter offers superior physical bulk and a more splashable defensive typing.
