MetaMons competitive notes
Rolycoly is a rock-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Defense — at 240 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 30) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Steam Engine 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 Rolycoly. Build around what Rolycoly 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.
