MetaMons competitive notes
Heatran is a fire/steel-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 600 BST it is a legendary-grade total for competitive play, with mid-pack speed (base 77) and a special attacking profile. Its Flash Fire 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 Heatran. Build around what Heatran 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.
