Cherubi
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Cherubi is a grass-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 275 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 35) and a special attacking profile. Its Chlorophyll ability matters more than the raw numbers when it hits the field: check what it does before deciding between a sweeper, pivot, or support role for Cherubi. Build around what Cherubi actually threatens, not its in-game lore — start from its weaknesses and strongest STAB moves, then decide whether its Speed, bulk, or coverage justifies a team slot.
