A few good examples of this are Lance's third Dragonite, which acts as a sweeper alongside the other two that existed mostly to punch holes and isn't actually as threatening as them comparatively, Steven's Metagross, which was a masssive wall that could tank damage from any angle and could throw it back in your face although he's a pretty weak example, and Wallace's Milotic, which also had decent coverage and just stalled away with Toxic and Recover.
