I borrowed the set from the Barbaracle thread because, lets be honest, it learns all the same moves and can run the same set. So really, why bother messing up a good thing?

Binacle
Binacle is, yet, another Water/Rock type in this generation, following in the steps that started with Omanyte and Kabuto. Binacle has a decent attack rating and speed that beat out the other water/rock types, and a good physical move pool to back it up. This, coupled with Shell Smash, allows Binacle to set up and sweep with a variety of physical moves that could shore up whatever your team might be lacking!
Notable moves:
Physical Attacks
Shell Smash
Stone Edge
Cross Chop
X - Scissor
Razor Shell
Poison Jab
Clamp
Night Slash
Rock Slide
Power-up Punch
Ghost Claw
Special Attacks
Ice Beam
Ancient Power
Blizzard
Sludge Wave
Sludge Bomb

Binacle can smash things really hard after it gets Shell Smash off, assuming you have the free turn to do so, and a wide move pool that you can take advantage of. X - Scissor may pair better with Razor Shell the Cross Chop, and would allow it to hit plant types thinking they have a safe switch in.
