Judging from your response, it seems as if you had built M-Weavile around Defiant. Which I find weird, because Defiant is a very once-in-a-while-ish ability. Perhaps a custom ability would work, an ability that heals based on damage dealt by dark attacks for example. That would justify a defence boot more.
