MetaMons competitive notes
Spiritomb is a ghost/dark-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Defense — at 485 BST it is a typical total for competitive play, with slow (base 35) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Pressure 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 Spiritomb. Build around what Spiritomb 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.
