Double Wall Pyukumuku (Popular/Trending)
Dominating single battles, Pyukumuku is a prestigious Double Wall. The objective of this moveset is to balance defenses for both physical and special attacks. With Unaware, Pyukumuku ignores other pokemon's stat stages when taking or doing damage. With a Rocky Helmet equipped to it, if Pyukumuku is hit by a contact move, the attacker loses 1/6 of its max hp.
◆ Helping Hand is a status move (one adjacent ally's move power is 1.5x this turn). ◆ Protect is a status move (prevents moves from affecting your Pyukumuku this turn). ◆ Recover is a status move (heals your Pyukumuku by 50% of its max hp). ◆ Toxic is a status move (badly poisons the target; Note: Poison types can't miss with Toxic).
Note: This moveset is vulnerable to Taunt. Ensure you include at least one damage-dealing move to avoid this risk.
