MetaMons competitive notes

Vivillon is a bug/flying-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 411 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 89) and a special attacking profile. Its Shield Dust 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 Vivillon. Build around what Vivillon 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.
