Dubwool @ LeftoversAbility: FluffyEVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SpDAdamant Nature- Cotton Guard- Body Press- Facade- Payback / Wild Charge / Zen Headbutt / Thunder Wave

Cotton Guard and Body Press is pretty self explanatory. Facade is just in case you get statused and also STAB. Last moveslot could be Payback to hit Ghost types, Wild Charge for coverage, Zen Headbutt for coverage against Fighting types, or Thunder Wave to paralyze opposing Pokemon.

Dubwool @ LeftoversAbility: Bulletproof / FluffyEVs: 252 Atk / 252 Def / 4 Spe or 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpeAdamant Nature- Cotton Guard- Body Press- Zen Headbutt- Facade / Body Slam / Payback

Substitute + Cotton GuardGen 8 PU / ZUDubwool @ LeftoversAbility: FluffyEVs: 132 HP / 252 Def / 124 SpeImpish Nature- Substitute- Cotton Guard- Body Press- Payback

Sub Cotton Guard set. Substitute is for scouting and can help avoid status conditions. Cotton Guard boosts your defense. Body Press takes advantage of your boosted defense. Payback is for doing chip damage against ghost types.

Role: Wall/Sweeper

Dubwool @ LeftoversAbility @ FluffyEVs : 252 HP / 128 Def / 128 SpDImpish Nature ( +Def, -SpA)- Cotton Guard- Agility- Body Press- PaybackCotton Guard and Agility so once you set up you can sweep, Body Press to take advantage of Cotton Guard, and Payback to hit Ghost types

Dubwool @ Salac BerryAbility: FluffyEVs: 252 Def/ 252 Speed / 4 HPImpish Nature- Facade- Body Press- Boton Pass- Cotton Guard

Been seeing different types of Boton Pass Dubwool poping up again and noticed it didn’t have a set here when I came to look for one.

Facade is STAB that allows you to punish if they status you while you set up Cotten guard.

Body Press works off the Def stat so Impish and Max Def to get the most use out of it.

Cotton Guard synergizes with Body Press and Botton Pass.

And Botton Pass. Use after your Salac Berry is proced to give the mon coming in +2 Def and 1+Speed. Maybe another good Body Press user or your wall.

You can’t hit ghosts with this set so just Cotton Guard–>Botton Pass out or hard switch.

Dubwool @ LeftoversAbility: FluffyEVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 SpeJolly Nature- Double-Edge- Wild Charge- Body Press- Cotton Guard

Double Edge is STAB, and Wild Charge is for coverage. They both have recoil, but the Leftovers help massively in recovering HP. Cotton Guard + Fluffy + 100 base Defense stat basically makes this thing unkillable on the physical side,the Physical form of Blissey(kinda lol). Body Press to hit Rock/Steel types, as well as coming from a sky high Defense stat, wreaks havoc.

Have fun using this set, hope I helped! :D

Gen 8 AG BpsDubwool (M) @ LeftoversAbility: FluffyEVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpDImpish NatureIVs: 0 Atk- Cotton Guard- Body Press- Substitute- Baton PassPretty self-explanatory. Cotton Guard makes you harder to hit, Body Press to do damage, Substitute is for doging status and such, and Baton Pass is to pass your defenses. Use this with Mega-Wurm-erm-Scolipede to get bulky quick using speed boosts.

Dubwool @ LeftoversAbility: Bulletproof / FluffyEVs: 252 Def / 252 Atk / 4 HPAdamant Nature- Cotton Guard- Body Press- Rest- Sleep Talk

Moves:

But you cant do anything to Ghost-typesso its better to have a Dark-type in your pocket

Dubwool @ LeftoversAbility: FluffyEVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SpDImpish Nature +Def - SpAIVs: 0 Atk- Rest- Cotton Guard- Sleep Talk- Body Press

Dubwool is a solid physical wall. I run this set mainly as a quick kill set. It works especially well if there are a whole bunch of physical attackers or their special attackers are dead. I found Rest Sleep Talk to work pretty well since many people have opted to toxic it or will-o-wisp it. Sleep talk is handy to stop it from being a sitting duck. Cotton Guard and Body Press is self explanatory, you’ll get a 1300 ish def Body Press.
