Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Primarina is a water/fairy-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 530 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with mid-pack speed (base 60) and a special attacking profile. Its Torrent 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 Primarina. Build around what Primarina 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.
