What was even shuckles desired role? it seems like a Pokemon game freak tried to tailor it for a specific play style but failed miserably

Tanking a shit ton of attacks and spamming garbage moves such as Wrap and Toxic.

It oddly worked in Gen 2, but future gens have introduced better walls.

There was a viable Shuckle stall strategy in Gen 4 involving sand/Toxic, I remember trolling PBR wifi with that. Also Power Trick

it sort of worked in Gen 2 when you could max out every stat.
and I'm putting a hard emphasis on "sort of". it was still a useless piece of shit that did nothing but toxic.

Lets give it a godly typing, a protect copy that poisons on contact, regenerator, and one of the best moves in the game with a 30% chance to burn.

What could go wrong?

Shuckle, but mostly due to the superior defensive typing and utility movepool. When it comes to neutral damage Guzzlord is hovering around Hippowdon-tier bulk

If they gave Shuckle an extra 40 BST in HP, it'd probably help it a lot.

Acupressure could have been cool on it, but Drapion does it better thanks to Battle Armor.

What it needs is U-turn or Memento so it can get out of the way after it's done setting up hazards.

I meant as far as neutral damage goes. Like hypothetically if a Pokemon was say Steel/Fairy with a good defensive/utility movepool/ability, would it rather have Shuckle's minmaxing or Guzzlord's?
