Fennekin
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Fennekin is a fire-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 307 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with mid-pack speed (base 60) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Blaze 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 Fennekin. Build around what Fennekin 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.
