MetaMons competitive notes
Chi Yu is a dark/fire-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 570 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 100) and a special attacking profile. Its Beads Of Ruin 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 Chi Yu. Build around what Chi Yu 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.
