Building a team using my favorite mon, Donphan, I really like the bulky offensive team archetype with him so here is my current team. any tips would be appreciated. p.s. not all are "bulky" mons, but they seem to cover some areas well enough to work. My mega is gyarados, i like the idea of having the option to mega or not rather than having to mega regardless. im debating putting uxie in instead of espeon, but i like having magic bounce. everything seems to be working well so far.
