>>49940841>Rhyperior or Rhydon+eviolite?Rhydon + eviolite only has better defensive stats which are not worth that much due to the lack of solid rock ability
Rhyperior has better attack, and can actually carry a useful item like life orb, choice band, leftovers, assault vest or weakness policy, giving it more variety of options, and also making it better than rhydon defensively in certain specific aspects.
Rock/Ground is a shitty defensive type but an amazing offensive type, so even if you could argue that there rhyperior isn't better in all aspects defensively, it doesn't really matter because you want strong earthquakes and rock attacks to wallbreak, slightly better bulk is not worth it if you throw away your item, your better attack stat and your ability.
>regular Exeggutor or alola ExeggutorThis pokemon are not too similar, but in theory exeggutor-alola has an objectively better moveset with stuff like flamethrower, and works better in trick room because it is slower.
