Simisage
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Simisage is a grass-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Speed — at 498 BST it is a typical total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 101) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Gluttony 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 Simisage. Build around what Simisage 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.
