MetaMons competitive notes

Krookodile is a ground/dark-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Attack — at 519 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 92) and a physical attacking profile. Its Intimidate 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 Krookodile. Build around what Krookodile 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.
