Snorlax

As Snorlax continues to descend into lower tiers, it brings with it its tried-and-true Curse sets and manages to establish its perpetual dominance in the SM RU metagame as evident by its influential and consistent roles as a setup sweeper, wallbreaker, and defensive threat. Snorlax's Thick Fat ability in conjunction with its defensive stats allows it to check a variety of Pokemon, such as Nidoqueen, Salazzle, and Mega Glalie, while its ability to make use of Curse further bolsters its defensive prowess and enables it to sweep. Figy Berry opens up the option for a different spin on its conventional Curse set, making use of it with Gluttony and Recycle to give Snorlax a tool that capitalizes on its matchup versus offensive teams. Along with three great abilities, Snorlax possesses a movepool that complements its job as a wallbreaker and defensive Pokemon, granting it access to Pursuit, which can dispose of frail attackers like Swellow, Mismagius, and Espeon, alongside the necessary coverage moves and STAB attacks to break through physically bulky Pokemon such as Slowbro and Metagross. Snorlax, however, is forced to rely either on Rest, which oftentimes puts in situations where it has to compromise its team's momentum to stay in the game, or Recycle + Figy Berry, which makes it susceptible to status; its relatively low Speed means it will often be too offensively pressured to rely on these recovery options. Sets not using any form of recovery will usually be overwhelmed quickly, and Snorlax has a number of counters that can hold back its sweeper and Choice Band sets, requiring its teammates to provide additional support.
