MetaMons competitive notes
Scream Tail is a fairy/psychic-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 570 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with top speed tier (base 111) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Protosynthesis 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 Scream Tail. Build around what Scream Tail 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.
