Is Stoutland or Audino more effective for a BW playthrough?

Hello I’m back at it again! I’ve progressed quite a bit (to Castelia City) and got a Sandile on Route 4 for my final team that I’ll use for probably the rest of the game, but here’s the thing. I have 2 Normal types: A Herdier with Intimidate (Brave Nature) and an Audino with Healer (Naughty Nature). I want 1 of these for my team but I can’t choose which one. I know each have their pros and cons but I just want to know which one I need! Thanks!

Stoutland no doubt.|Stoutland’s got a usable Attack stat of 100 and a pretty good bulk of 90/90 Def and SpD. It also has a wide physical movepool of the Elemental Fangs and can utilize return well.

Stoutland is much, much better because it has usable stats. Audino is good for EXP and nothing else.commented 2 hours ago by Amethyst

Refer to Amethyst’s comment as well. Audino basically exists for Exp and HP EVs grind only as it has little offensive capabilities. If any, it’ll be useful only in the lategame battle facilities as a Doubles support.|Stoutland @ Leftovers/AnyAbility: Intimidate- Return- Thunder/Ice Fang/Dig- Crunch- Work Up/Aerial Ace|Hope this helps!
