Ting Lu

Ting-Lu's titanic bulk makes it the premier special wall and check to Miraidon in Ubers. Unlike Arceus-Ground and Clodsire, Ting-Lu is able to take on Miraidon and generate momentum in the process thanks to Vessel of Ruin and a fantastic support movepool featuring Spikes, Ruination, and Whirlwind. Other special threats such as Calm Mind Arceus-Ground and offensive Eternatus are hurt in viability by Ting-Lu's presence alone. Ting-Lu's physical bulk should not be underestimated either, as it can take on threats like Dragon Dance Necrozma-DM and Zekrom when needed. These incredible defenses come at the cost of lacking any form of reliable recovery, making Ting-Lu extremely vulnerable to entry hazard damage, Knock Off, and status. As such, some teams may prefer either Clodsire due to its superior role compression in checking Kyogre, absorbing Toxic Spikes, and ability to run Heavy-Duty Boots or Arceus-Ground for its better offensive presence and reliable recovery. Effective use of Ting-Lu requires careful management of its HP so that it fulfills its role of setting entry hazards early-game and staying healthy enough to check threats late-game.
