Palkia (Origin)

GBL Note Analysis

Basis: PvPoke simulation · last-30-day field meta · S27 New Beginnings

✔ Strengths & how to use

• Its Lead · Switch role scores are all high, so it isn't tied to one slot and can flex across positions.
• It posts favorable results against current field-meta staples Zacian (Crowned Sword)(#2) · Kyogre(#7) · Ho-Oh(#12), giving it real value as a meta counter.
• On defense it double-resists Fire · Water · resists Steel, holding up well against those attackers.

⚠ Weaknesses & threats

• On defense it is weak to Dragon · Fairy, so watch out for those attackers.
• High attack but thin bulk means shield management heavily decides its games.
• It's notably unfavored into Dialga (Origin) (usage rank #10), common right now, so dodging that matchup is safer in the current meta.
