Gligar
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Gligar is a ground/flying-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Defense — at 430 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 85) 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 Gligar. Build around what Gligar 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.
