Iron Crown
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Iron Crown is a steel/psychic-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 590 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 98) and a special attacking profile. Its Quark Drive 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 Iron Crown. Build around what Iron Crown 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.
