Right now it's pretty shit and out-classed by AV Tangrowth on the bulk side and STAB EQ and SR access hardly help it. So there's a couple different ways it could go to stand out.
Offense Rock Polish Sweeper
95/159/135/75/95/66
Ability: Rock Head
Set up Rock Polish, spam STAB Wood Hammer off 458 Attack while moving at just over 500 Speed. Run EQ and Stone Edge for EdgeQuake and basically all you have to do is watch out for Chesnaught, who walls it. Standard Breloom and Virizion are 2HKO'd by Wood Hammer. Talonflame still presents a problem and Banded will always net a KO unless you're fully invested in physical defense.
Tank/Wall
95/149/155/75/115/36
Ability: Magic Bounce/Magic Guard
Speed decreases because it becomes round, like a globe; design could justify min-maxing (like Camerupt or Sableye). The idea here is that you set up with Stockpile and can't get Toxic'd or Burned. So basically M-Venusaur but with the ability to boost to +3 on both its defenses. At +3, Banded Talonflame isn't even guaranteed to 3HKO, so if you run recovery, you'll be able to outstall. With the loss of Shell Armor, crits become a problem, but sometimes it's just gotta be the luck of the draw.
Thoughts?
