MetaMons competitive notes
Marowak is a ground-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Defense — at 425 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 45) and a physical attacking profile. Its Rock Head 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 Marowak. Build around what Marowak 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.
