Darmanitan has Sheer Force, which is an ability that powers up attacks, both Physical and Special. However, they lose their secondary effects. For example, Flamethrower could burn your opponent, the burn being the secondary effect. This cannot happen with the ability Sheer Force. Who cares about Sheer Force when you have Zen Mode? By catching certain Darmanitan in the Desert Resort, you can get one with this ability. When your HP is fairly low, Darmanitan changes form. It changes Darmanitan's stats and typing. The Darmanitan Zen Mode form is a Fire-and-Psychic type, not just a Fire-type. Zen Mode is probably the only reason people use this Pokemon, but he's still strong without Zen Mode anyway.
Darmanitan has varied stats, each depending on its alternate forms. The standard form has good HP, Attack, or Speed stats. Its only crippled stats are Defense, Sp. Attack, and Sp. Defense stats. Zen Mode has higher Sp. Attack, Sp. Defense, and Defense stats, but has a drawback of Speed loss. Zen Mode is a slower Pokemon, not to mention a lower Attack stat. He still has high HP, and less crippled stats than the standard form.
Darmanitan has a robust movepool. He can learn a bunch of TM and HM moves, and has good Level-Up moves. It can use Belly Drum and Taunt, which are two good moves. Be warned that Darmanitan doesn't have any recovery moves, so Belly Drum can be a tad dangerous if used foolishly. Good examples of Darmanitan's best level-up moves are Hammer Arm, Superpower, Flare Blitz, Thrash, and Fire Punch. Of course, it also has one good breeding move. This move is Focus Punch. With Substitute, Focus Punch can be a powerful attack.
So in a nutshell, it's pretty simple to show that Darmanitan is another strong and sturdy Pokemon that pretty much outclasses a lot of others in general. This is a Pokemon that is unique, strong, and actually worth something. I'm talking to Pokemon like my sister. She's LIKE a Pokemon. She beats up her own kind! Whoops- I went to Lalaland for a minute...
