Steelix, maximum bro and my absolute favorite Pokemon.
>Dat fucking 200 base Defense
>The #1 non-legendary physical wall
>Even with a neutral nature and zero EVs Steelix still has more Defense than max Def Forretress or Skarmory
>Hilarious to use in-game and watch it take practically zero damage from physical attacks
>Has a nice extensive movepool including EdgeQuake, Iron Head, Crunch, Elemental Fangs and support/phazing moves like Pebbles, Dragon Tail and Roar
>Also capable of being an early-game HM friend with Cut, Rock Smash and Strength
>Imagine having one IRL: you wouldn't even need a fucking car when you could just ride with your Steelix
>Nobody would mess with you while Steelix wrecks shit everywhere it goes
And just about its typing:
>Steel/Ground, absolute GOAT typing
>Has a nice STAB coverage since Ground hits 3/4 of the types that resist Steel for super effective damage
>Resists / is immune to over half of the fucking type chart, even after Gen VI Steel nerf
>Immune to the two most common status moves, Thunder Wave and Toxic
>Hardly gives a shit about entry hazards thanks to double resistance to pebbles and immunity to Toxic Spikes
