Defensive pokemon

[andrew1205]

Can you suggest me of a defensive pokemon wth personality/move list? RN i have 2.1M for selling my shiny and is already using blissey, skarmony, ferrothorn, milotic, Whimsicott, and Cofagrigus 

Thinking of a tyaranitar or dragonite, what do you suggest?

You generally want to think of defensive mons in terms of "cores" Skarm/Bliss is classic but Fire/Water/Grass, Dark/Fighting/Psy, and Fairy/Steel/Drag ( Obviously does not exist in our game) are the most common. These cores basically come down to the most efficient typing combinations that cover each other. 

 

Instead of just focusing on random mons to make, decide on a defensive core and build around that. You should also try and identify common meta threats like Conk and Volcarona when building the mons themselves. For example if ur only defensive check to Volcarona is Blissey, then u probably need to run toxic on it (hope it doesn't have safeguard). If ur running stuff that is weak to conk it could be important to put Cofag or run rocky helmet relaxed skarm.  

 

Ur question is kind of hard to answer with specifics since movesets/ev's are specific to use/team, but information on natures/items can be found in "statistics" page under Matchmaking signup, just click on the pokemon and you can see the most common natures/items people are using on them. I would also suggest spectating battles or finding an entire team to copy/build rather than building your own as a new player.
