Big Mo Counter Strategy — Pokémon Unbound

🏟️ Arena Field Effect: Heavyweight Zone (Inverse Speed)

Speed Gimmick

The speed order is determined by Pokémon weight. Heavier Pokémon move first, completely reversing traditional speed tiers.

💡 Immunity & Counter Tip: Leave your fast, frail sweepers in the PC. Bring the heaviest Pokémon you can find (like Steelix, Torkoal, or Hariyama) to outspeed his team.
