Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Magmortar is a fire-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 540 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 83) and a special attacking profile. Its Flame Body 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 Magmortar. Build around what Magmortar 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.
