Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Pangoro is a fighting/dark-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Attack — at 495 BST it is a typical total for competitive play, with slow (base 58) and a physical attacking profile. Its Iron Fist 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 Pangoro. Build around what Pangoro 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.
