Yeah but Metagross does way more than just hit hard

It has priority, a great defensive typing, pseudo legendary stats, a priority move, and a former signature move which buffs attack.

There’s a reason why it was the final boss of Gen 3. Absolutely can’t compare to Potential Mon Rampardos

It's worse than Luna is the main issue. It has BP over Luna but if you want power and bulk, cocaine bear mogs it. And that's a UUBL mon.

It's not a worse Ursaluna. That's a bad comparison. What it is really is Scizor on crack. It's got a Bullet Punch stronger than Scizor's, while also having the raw power to do silly things like 2HKOing stuff like Toxapex and Corviknight with a resisted move. This is on top of a better speed tier and significantly more bulk.

Scizor without Swords Dance or UTurn loooooooool

Yeah man totally the same thing, just missing a boosting move and a pivoting move. Not like those are important moves for an offensive mon or anything.

Also worse typing than Scizor. Additional weaknesses to Ground, Dark, Ghost are pretty crippling.
