Nothing is "reliable" in the RNG shitshow that is Pokemon, moron. However if you can manage to waste a couple of your opponent's turns with confuse, you can set up a guaranteed victory pretty easily.
I hate how every fun mechanic/move gets nerfed/removed.
Now everything will become hyper offense and use a full set of 120 power moves, because everything erlse is not worth it.
Confusion and it’s actually tanky enough in lower tier where the defense drops would matter.
It’s also why Cinderace runs Pyro Ball over Flare Blitz when Flare Blitz is more accurate and has more PP.
Golurk is weirdly patterned after Machamp >No Guard >humanoid >bluish palette with greenish shiny >seal and power saver belt keep powers in check >helpful to humans/society >same stat spreads except lower for Golurk
dynamic punch
>Poltergeist
>Stone Edge
>Dynamic Punch
Play the game homie
Why would you use Dynamic Punch? It gets Close Combat.
only since the non canon days of Gen 8
It didn't in gen 5, moron
And it didn't get Poltergeist in gen 5, which is better for it due to STAB
dynamic punch can confuse/no def drop
20 less BP is worth the guaranteed confusion and the lack of defense drops after use.
Confusion isn't reliable, and it's not worth the 20 less BP.

FOR THE CONFUSION YOU moron
Confusion gimmicks lol
Close Combat is more powerful now that it's boosted by Iron Fist and the Punching Glove item.
>Punching Glove and Iron Fist boosted Shadow Punch
Unfortunately doesn't look like glove has any effect on an iron fist mon
