>>40006595at least originally, high HP, extremely broad movepool, resists ghost type, gets stab from some of the best moves (body slam, hyper beam, giga impact, wrap, extremespeed), has only a single weakness which it can somewhat make up for with its usual high HP;
it is resisted by only 3 types, and can account for these types pretty well - rock types get taken down with water/ice moves for example, steel types get taken down with fire/fighting/ground moves, and the ghost type gets taken out with other ghost type moves because of the normal type's varied movepool.
