Why? Ampharos has good bulk and Cotton Guard can make it annoying af against physical attackers.A good set:Ampharos @ AmpharositeEVs: [180 Hp/200 Sp.atk/128 Def]/[180 Sp.atk/100 Def/128 Hp/100 Sp.def]Nature: ModestAbility: Static —> Mold Breaker-Cotton Guard-Thunderbolt-Dragon Pulse-Hidden Power [Water]/Hidden Power [Grass]This set works amazing. Modest because this thing destroys at base 165 sp.atk. This is meant to take physical hits but works better under Light Screen support.Hope I helped!-It’s a secret!
Honestly, with Ampharos’s high defenses, I don’t think you need a defensive move at all, but you should rather use Agility. This is the moveset I’d use:
