Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Deoxys Speed is a psychic-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Speed — at 600 BST it is a legendary-grade total for competitive play, with top speed tier (base 180) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Pressure 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 Deoxys Speed. Build around what Deoxys Speed 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.
