🧸 Little League
Carbink can power its way through the open Little League meta, by virtue of its insane bulk and decent fast move pressure. It’s a very strong pick, if it ever gets the opportunity to participate in the Little Cup format.
🔵 Great League
When Carbink first burst onto the scene it was slated to be the #1 ranked pick in the open Great League, due to being blessed with one of the highest stat products in the meta and a consistent (albeit cumbersome) moveset. Meta shifts and movepool updates have made it slightly less powerful in its current state, and it is often reliant on favourable alignment.
🟡 Ultra League
Carbink wasn’t built for the Ultra League, lacking the CP to compete in the higher CP metas.
