MetaMons competitive notes

Venonat is a bug/poison-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 305 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 45) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Compound Eyes 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 Venonat. Build around what Venonat 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.
