Normal-type Pokémon are no different ... just like how Arboliva resembles both an effeminate human and a tree. Sawsbuck is a deer-like Pokémon and the evolved form of Deerling.
It's still decent in Dragon-type raids, but we won't be deviating from our squad of deer just yet. As for PVP, its stats only work for Master League, and the Psychic-type Fast move really holds it ...
