Magearna has the stats to dominate any format it's allowed in. 130 base Sp. Atk stands out, and the rest of the spread doesn't have obvious weak points either. One of the newer additions from Gen 7. Known as the Artificial Pokemon.
Magearna's spread isn't flashy. Sp. Atk leads, Speed trails, 5 stats clear the bar. Near-impossible to catch and worth 3 Sp. Atk EVs, on a slow 1.25M XP grind.
This is its form from almost 500 years ago. Its body is nothing more than a container—its artificial heart is the actual life-form.
It functions thanks to its artificial soul. The vivid decoration is proof that it was presented as a gift to royalty.
Magearna Weakness
FortressFire and Ground-type moves hit Magearna for super-effective damage. The upside? Poison and Dragon-type moves can't touch it at all. 9 resistances give it solid defensive coverage on top of that. Magearna's overall bulk (80/115/115) lets it take a hit or two from most weaknesses before going down.
Mythical Pokemon don't breed, and Magearna is no exception. This Steel/Fairy type sits at 600 stats with no chain to speak of.

Without TMs, Magearna's movepool is bare bones. With them, you get coverage across 8 types on top of Fleur Cannon and Steel Roller for STAB. The natural kit handles basics, but TMs are doing the real work.
