This pokemon was such a let down, it looks amazing but was so terrible in battle, has anyone else used an Aggron?

Maybe I'm just a tard but those kinds of bulky Pokemon always seem to be dead weight for me
When I can just pick something that outspeeds and OHKOs things, why pick a Pokemon that is slow and dies in maybe 3 hits instead of 2 (and that's only if the attack isn't special, or one of it's 4x weaknesses, which probably 1-2HKO it anyway like it's defenses are nothing)

Mega is pretty decent, but regular old Aggron is underwhelming as fuck.

Step 1: get an adamant rock head Aggron with head smash
Step 2: slap a choice band on it
Step 3: get a ninjask with protect, substitute, swords dance and baton pass
Step 4: send ninjask our first and stall for speed boosts, swords dancing behind a substitute if there is the opportunity
Step 5: baton pass to Aggron
Step 6: ???
Step 7: Profit

If regular Aggron was just steel type it might have been better. The design is awesome though

I used one in Blaze Black 2 and he obliterated everything that got hit with Head Smash. That is, if he actually managed to use it and not miss or die to Earthquake or Surf or something.

The combination of Sturdy, Metal Burst & Shell Bell is great for instantly obliterating people that think they're hot shit.
It can run a respectable Rock Polish set too if it gets the chance, but that's a big if.

Hw we rebuild it? How can we make him stronger? Drop the Rock typing entirely? Give him Filter as an HA? Rearrange some stats? New moves?

I used an non-mega Aggron in a generational team for AG Gen 7.

You don't know what power is until you see something One Hit Kill a physically defensive Lugia THROUGH MULTISCALE.

Like I know you'll never get everything to be perfectly balanced, but is it that hard for them to just like, make a Pokémon not absolutely suck?

I'd rather give the Ninjask Hone Claws from Gen 5.
That way the Aggron doesn't miss.

Why do people always suggest dropping Rock type to "buff" it? Rock Head STAB Head Smash is its best feature.

This thing fucking mows down the competition in game tho. I used one on my team in emerald and it was completely uncontested for the early game since most moves are normal. I swept Norman with a level 24 Aaron too, if that isn't pulling your weight then idk what is

Bulky mons let you shift momentum. You can shrug off a hit or two, while getting in some big damage or valuable turns.
Although yes, tanky mons (not full walls) were more viable in the past, so these days it's usually better to pick something with ridiculous offenses or defenses, rather than something with a mix of both.

The only gyms where lairon struggles are Emerald Skyla, Juan and earthquake spam Tate and Liza, one could raise a point on Wattson overpowering it and maybe Flannery being too much, but the bitch is packing overheat and attract on top of Body Slam, Flannery is a spike of difficulty on anyone that didn't pick Marshtomp

The Aggron line is awesome with just rocktomb, unless you teach it to Hariyama there's no reason to not have fun with it
Metalclaw and headbutt carry you until take down and iron tail at 29, then you can upgrade to double edge, as long as you give it rock tomb you are good to go
