Yanmega
Abilities
MetaMons competitive notes
Yanmega is a bug/flying-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward Special Attack — at 515 BST it is a strong total for competitive play, with above-average speed (base 95) and a special attacking profile. Its Speed Boost 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 Yanmega. Build around what Yanmega 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.
