Looking for a powerhouse, something powerful but also something that can take a hit? You need Timburr!
Mach Punch
Hammer Arm
Payback
Dig
EVs: 252 Attack, 252 HP, 4 Defense
How can we get this adorable destruction machine? Easily, that's how.
1) Breed a female Timburr with a male Infernape that knows Mach Punch, Payback, and Dig.
2) Aim for an Adamant Nature, and the Sheer Force Ability. Level up the spawn to learn Hammer Arm.
Between those 4 moves, he'll be super-effective against 10 different types. Be certain to have Timburr hold the Life Orb. Hammer Arm is a powerful Fighting move that will lower your Speed, one of his lesser stats that's not worth anything anyhow. Between the STAB, Sheer Force, and Life Orb, Hammer Arm will deliver a blow of 254 power. Mach Punch will let you attack first, and between the same 3 effects will have 102 power. That attack will get you out of some tight situations since you can deliver a fairly powerful attack before your opponent can react. Payback is there for the Ghost types, mostly, it will have 169 power, assuming you attack after the opponent. Dig will have 135 power(Though you may want to teach it Earthquake instead, for 169 power, but Conkeldurr will have to learn that via TM because Timburr cannot). And keep in mind that Conkeldurr has a beautiful Attack stat.
Why hold the Life Orb? Because Sheer Force has a hidden little effect. It will negate the damage taken while holding the Life Orb while still giving you the 30% attack bonus. It has to do with how the damage bonus is applied during the attack and the damage is taken after the attack, I don't quite understand it, but it works.
So enjoy the powerhouse Timburr! Questions/comments?
Brock out.
