Drawn Sword Pokémon

This Ultra Beast came from the Ultra Wormhole. It seems not to attack enemies on its own, but its sharp body is a dangerous weapon in itself.

Strategy Overview
Kartana has proven to be a decent physical attacker in the metagame, boasting a huge Attack stat, a good typing, strong Defense, and a decent Speed tier, but it has rather weak move options. Beast Boost goes a long way, only furthering Kartana's already impressive Attack after it gets a KO. Kartana, however, has extremely poor special bulk and is likely to get OHKOed by almost any neutral special move and, in some cases, even resisted moves.
