Its Ability

Stone Palace

As long as this Pokémon is on your Bench, all of your Steven's Pokémon take 30 less damage from attacks from your opponent's Pokémon (after applying Weakness and Resistance). The effect of Stone Palace doesn't stack.

What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

  1. A strength

    It has an Ability, Stone Palace. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  2. A strength

    Steven's Metagross ex runs it in 3 of the 38 lists we have read, seen across 3 different tournaments.

  3. A strength

    It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.

  4. A strength

    Mark I. The next rotation takes mark H away, so this one stays tournament legal.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Metal ×2. Against a Metal Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 477 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
