[OVERVIEW]
There's no reason to use Stantler over other Normal-types, particularly Dodrio and Stoutland. Intimidate is nice, and it does have some decent coverage and priority options, but its lack of bulk, Speed or even decent power means it fails to carve a niche for itself in PU.
[SET]
name: All-out Attacker
move 1: Double-Edge
move 2: Sucker Punch
move 3: Jump Kick / Earthquake
move 4: Signal Beam / Energy Ball
item: Life Orb
ability: Intimidate
nature: Lonely / Hasty
evs: 252 Atk / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
[SET COMMENTS]
This set attempts to deal as much damage as possible and revenge kill weakened Pokemon with Sucker Punch, with Intimidate helping against physical attackers. Unfortunately, Stantler's lack of bulk, Speed or Swords Dance means it's completely outclassed by Stoutland, Dodrio, and Kangaskhan as an offensive Normal-type. Stantler is also fairly weak, as most of the damage it does comes from hitting foes super effectively with its coverage, with the exception of its decently powerful STAB Double-Edge. Finally, Stantler is worn down quite easily with the combination of Life Orb and Double-Edge recoil.
