Competitive Analysis
This ability provides immediate setup potential upon switching in, making it valuable for offensive strategies. Dragon-type Pokémon gain exceptional benefit from the doubled critical hit boost, while other types still receive meaningful offensive support. The ability is particularly useful in scenarios where the Pokémon can safely switch in and immediately threaten high-damage critical hits.
