Editor analysis

Tinkaton is a top meta pick with its immensely powerful signature move, Gigaton Hammer, which even threatens Water types that resist it. The Bulldoze rework gives Tinkaton some closing power, but is also a big pacing nerf. It's likely to remain top meta, although other Fairy or Steel types are vying for its spot.
