This being in the generation that gave us Amoonguss with the most heinous sleep mechanics in the series. Its movepool was also full of coverage options like Megahorn, Super Power, Stone Edge, Earthquake, Wild Charge, Zen Headbutt, and tech options like Pursuit.
It turned out pretty okay for Gen 5 standards. If it had a standard Gen 6+ BST of 515 - 530 it would've been busted. Throw 25 points on that Attack stat and it would be running people over like Conkeldurr.
