Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Vikavolt is a bug/electric-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 500 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with slow (base 43) and a special attacking profile. Its Levitate 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 Vikavolt. Build around what Vikavolt 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.
