MetaMons competitive notes

Snom is a ice/bug-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 185 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 20) and a special attacking profile. Its Shield Dust 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 Snom. Build around what Snom 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.
