Magneton

Magneton's niche lies in Magnet Pull, allowing it to trap the metagame's defensive Steel-types like Stakataka, Copperajah, and Escavalier. Even though it has no coverage move to hit them super effectively, it can eventually boost past them with Charge Beam, especially with the survivability it gets from Eviolite + Iron Defense + Rest. Though specific, this niche can be highly valuable when used to support teammates like Exploud and Sylveon that desperately need Steel-types being gone. However, outside of trapping them, Magneton offers little to no defensive use or utility compared to the metagame's other Steel-types, making it outclassed by them for a teamslot. It is also dead-weight outside of the Steel-type matchup due to its overall poor offensive presence and passivity.
