MetaMons competitive notes
Scolipede is a bug/poison-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Speed — at 485 BST it is a typical total for competitive play, with top speed tier (base 112) and a physical attacking profile. Its Poison Point 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 Scolipede. Build around what Scolipede 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.
