Rock slide or Rock tomb or Rollout for gen III Aggron?
Just asking you guys what would be the best.

I would go withRock Tomb.Here are my reasons:
1.Rock slide flinches the opponentonly if it hits first.(Source)With aggrons base speed,I doubt that he will be able to flinch any Pokemon.
2.Rollout fixes you into using it for five turns.It could be useful if you EV train it in defense so that it can take a few hits until it finishes using Rollout.However,if your opponent uses a special attack thenyou are doomedas Aggron has terrible sp def.
3.Rock tombwill always reduce you opponent Pokemon’s speed by one stage.(Source)This could be useful because since Aggron has horrible speed,it may be able to lower the opponent’s speed down to Aggron’s level.And even though it has less power than Rock Slide,it has more accuracy.If Rock slide misses in the most crucial of times,you’ll be in trouble
Hope I helped!
I would recommend you going withrock slide, because it has a higher base power than rock tomb(I’m completely excluding Rollout from this since it wouldn’t work well) and you have a30% chance to flinch.With Aggron flinching your opponent will help a lot more than lowering their speed because you only have 50 base speed so you’re still going to be slower in most cases.
Hope I helped!
Don’t go with Rollout since it locks you to only use Rollout for 5 turns.
I would go with Rock Tomb because it has more PP than Rock Slide. It depends on what you want. If you just want damage go with Rock Slide if you want to just faint Pokemon fast you should go with Rock Tomb. For example getting out of Victory Road.
