Altaria or Goodra? (ORAS)?

Here are my two setups at the moment, I was just wondering which is better.

Maybe you can also suggest ways I can improve these movesets? Thanks!

I vote Goodra. I love the variety of moves and it’s a little more original as so many people are using Altaria.

I would say Altaria. If you get the Mega Stone for it, Mega Evolving it will turn it into a fairy type, making it immune to dragon-type moves, which is really helpful. And for Altaria’s final move, I suggest using TM 35, Flamethrower, to give it coverage against steel types in its Mega Evolved form, and ice types in both its Mega Evolved form and regular form.

GoodraGoodra has all base stats more than Altaria leaving Defense.Both are normally Special tanks.Goodra doesn’t have a source of recovery but can still hit hard.

But this is only against Special Pokes.Any faster Physical attacker or a physical goodra(rare) can beat you.

So for a wall Altaria maybe better as it has recovery through roost and leftovers and can raise its Defense through Cotton guard. Altaria can cotton guard on first turn and stall easily.For altaria’s second move use toxic for stalling or flamethrower to avoid any fairy type with Taunt
