Yamper
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Yamper is a electric-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 270 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 26) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Ball Fetch 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 Yamper. Build around what Yamper 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.
