Polteageist
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Polteageist is a ghost-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 508 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with mid-pack speed (base 70) and a special attacking profile. Its Weak Armor 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 Polteageist. Build around what Polteageist 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.
