Crabrawler
MetaMons competitive notes
Crabrawler is a fighting-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Attack — at 338 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with mid-pack speed (base 63) and a physical attacking profile. Its Hyper Cutter 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 Crabrawler. Build around what Crabrawler 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.
