MetaMons competitive notes

Deino is a dark/dragon-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Attack — at 300 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 38) and a physical attacking profile. Its Hustle 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 Deino. Build around what Deino 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.
