Wurmple

Wurmple takes super-effective damage from Fire, Flying, Rock moves — every one of those types is a check you need an answer for when drafting. Before locking Wurmple into a team, check the weakness guide and count how many of those types your remaining five slots can answer.

Wurmple is a bug-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 195 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 20) and a physical 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 Wurmple. Build around what Wurmple 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. Compare this profile against your roster's shared weaknesses in the MetaMons team builder, where the 18-type coverage heatmap reads the whole team, not one slot.
