Avalugg-Delta is one of the most impressive physical walls available in the PokeClash server environment. A combination of high base HP, Def, the ability Solid Rock, a decent defensive typing, and Will-O-Wisp rends it impervious to most forms of physical damage. While on the field, it can inflict burn with Will-O-Wisp and set up Stealth Rocks for its team. While not a highlight, it can deal hefty damage with STAB Stone Edge, even with little to no investment.
Heavy-Duty Boots enables it to switch-in without getting worn down by hazards, allowing it to be a powerful and recurring physical check. Rocky Helmet it allows it to deal chip on most contact physical sweepers and wallbreakers. Leftovers allows it to edge in some cases that would be a guaranteed 2HKO into a roll.

Ability: Sand Stream
EVs: 248 HP / 4 Def / 252 SpDef
Careful / Sassy Nature
- Slack Off
- Rapid Spin / Roar / Will-O-Wisp

Celesteela
Kamerog with Levitate

Electric-types, Fire-types, Ground-types, Poison-types, and Steel-types
Pokemon with Magic Bounce or Magic Guard
Gliscor with Toxic Heal
Guts Pokemon, such as Ursaluna
Weaknesses
While incredibly bulky, it is liable to Taunt and status, most notably it can be easily worn down by Toxic and Burn. While terastalizing can improve its defensive typing and prevent such statuses, it is better reserved for other Pokemon of the team.
Avalugg-Delta has to watch out for potent SpA-focused wallbreakers in the National Dex metagame, such as Gholdengo and Tapu-Lele. Also, Avalugg-Delta has to watch out for common bulky status spreaders such as Pecharunt and Toxapex. Lastly, Avalugg-Delta has to most especially be wary of Tapu-Fini Whirlpool sets that can easily trap Avalugg-Delta and wear it down to death while setting up Calm Mind.
