It doesn't make a difference.

252+ Atk Conkeldurr Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Cresselia: 82-98 (36.1 - 43.1%) -- guaranteed 3HKO
252+ Atk Conkeldurr Knock Off (97.5 BP) vs. 252 HP / 100+ Def Cresselia: 92-110 (40.5 - 48.4%) -- guaranteed 3HKO

VS Relaxed Cress

It's a decent chunk out of its HP. Not the best counter, like I said, but not the worst either. Nothing is going to outright wipe the floor with Cress.

there are better options for taking down cress. b/c the whole time your struggling to 3 or 4 hit KO it your opponent will have another pokemon attacking freely

That's why I said it's not the best counter, but it's not the worst either.

cresselia is just op :P
