It fits best at offensive line with a fit of 65.3 — 137th of 1025 at that position, and 17th in Hoenn. Its next best use is nose tackle at 62.9.
Five starters and no Speed requirement, so it is purely about mass: Weight and Defense carry it, HP is close behind. Because five spots need bodies, good linemen vanish first in a draft — and Rock, Steel and Ground get the biggest type bonus in the game.
