MetaMons competitive notes
Snorlax is a normal-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 540 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with slow (base 30) and a physical attacking profile. Its Immunity 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 Snorlax. Build around what Snorlax 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.
