Which Pokemon will take more hits before faint, a Pokémon with a high HP and very low defense or a Pokémon with a high def./sp.def and a very low HP ?

I suggest defense and special defense because when you get defense stats you have a more reliable from special and defense hits. Having high H.P. doesn’t mean that you are gonna be strong against hits. Just imagine it like this, Having high hp with bad special defense and getting hit by a super effective move. But with high defense and special defense you will be able to take more hits.

If you want some Pokemon who are like that here are some Ideas: Toxapex, Steelix, Umbreon, Snorlax, and Avalugg. They are all obtainable in sword and shield.
