MetaMons competitive notes
Clefable is a fairy-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 483 BST it is a typical total for competitive play, with mid-pack speed (base 60) and a special attacking profile. Its Cute Charm 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 Clefable. Build around what Clefable 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.
