MetaMons competitive notes
Kangaskhan is a normal-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 490 BST it is a typical total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 90) and a physical attacking profile. Its Early Bird 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 Kangaskhan. Build around what Kangaskhan 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.
