MetaMons competitive notes
Mewtwo is a psychic-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 680 BST it is a legendary-grade total for competitive play, with top speed tier (base 130) and a special attacking profile. Its Pressure 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 Mewtwo. Build around what Mewtwo 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.
