Sunkern
MetaMons competitive notes
Sunkern is a grass-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 180 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 30) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Chlorophyll 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 Sunkern. Build around what Sunkern 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.
