MetaMons competitive notes
Suicune is a water-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Defense — at 580 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 85) 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 Suicune. Build around what Suicune 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.
