Pretty solid! I could see this pokemon being picked round 2, maybe round 3. It has a good defensive profile and two solid abilities to keep your opponent guessing. Levitate gets rid of the ground weakness and Heatproof cuts fire damage in half. You can pick the one you think will be more likely based on your team and what your foe might run, and you have the benefit of the unknown. Since you could have either, your opponent might not want to hit you with any fire or ground moves since they might just end up wasting a turn. Since Bronzong does get STAB on Heavy Slam, there is a small reason to consider the ability, Heavy Metal to get the most out of it… but don’t. It probably isn’t worth it. Still, it has a good number of tricks it can pull like both screens and Imprison. With a few strong megas running around, Skill Swap might be good too. It can do enough to fit on most teams well.
