GBL Note Analysis

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

Limited field sample — not seen enough in the last 30 days of GBL Note data, so the analysis below is based on simulation and type matchups.

✔ Strengths & how to use

• High matchup stability gives it even, reliable performance across a wide field.
• It posts favorable results against current field-meta staples Rhyperior(#14) · Shadow Rhyperior(#15) · Zamazenta (Crowned Shield)(#20), giving it real value as a meta counter.
• On defense it double-resists Ground · Bug · resists Grass · Fighting · Dark, holding up well against those attackers.

⚠ Weaknesses & threats

• On defense it is weak to Electric · Ice · Flying · Psychic · Fairy, so watch out for those attackers.
• High attack but thin bulk means shield management heavily decides its games.
• It's notably unfavored into Palkia (Origin) (usage rank #6), common right now, so dodging that matchup is safer in the current meta.

GBL Note verdict

It's barely seen in the last 30 days of field data. On paper it's D-tier, with an edge expected in matchups like Rhyperior(#14) · Shadow Rhyperior(#15) · Zamazenta (Crowned Shield)(#20).
