Lycanroc-Midnight is legal in Regulation M-B and did not appear often enough on the ladder to produce usage statistics. It is legal and simply out of favour, which makes it unmeasured rather than unusable.
Lycanroc-Midnight is number 745 in the National Dex, a Alola Pokémon, Rock with a base stat total of 487 — 165th of the 234 Pokémon legal in this regulation. Its best stat is Attack at 115, 51st in the format; its weakest is Sp. Atk at 55, 195th. It can have Keen Eye, Vital Spirit and No Guard. The Champions module tiers it UU.
It sits in a 2-stage line: Rockruff → Lycanroc-Midnight. Not all of that line is legal in this regulation — Rockruff is not.
As Rock, 5 of the eighteen attacking types do extra damage to it. It resists 4. The board above has all of it. 4 other legal Pokémon share the same typing and the same board: Lycanroc-Dusk, Lycanroc, Rampardos, Garganacl.
Smogon publishes no head-to-head checks-and-counters data for doubles formats, so this list is computed, not measured: the most-played Regulation M-B Pokémon carrying a damaging move of a type Lycanroc-Midnight takes extra damage from.
Lycanroc has 3 legal formes in this regulation and they share a typing, so the only thing separating them is the stat line. This one has the highest HP at 85, Defense at 75 and Sp. Def at 75 of the 3. It has the lowest Attack at 115 and Speed at 82. The others are Lycanroc-Dusk and Lycanroc.
At level 50 with a boosting nature and full investment, Lycanroc-Midnight reaches 147 Speed; left uninvested with a neutral nature it sits at 102. Invested, it outruns 9 of the 20 most-used Pokémon in the regulation when they are invested too — which is the comparison that decides who moves first.
It weighs 25 kg, so Grass Knot and Low Kick hit it for 60 base power. That is a real consideration in a format where both are common.
Lycanroc-Midnight learns 90 moves in the Champions data. 57 of them do damage, across 13 of the eighteen types, and 5 share a type with it and so get the same-type bonus. Its hardest-hitting same-type move is Stone Edge at 100 base power, though the biggest number in the pool is Focus Punch at 150. It also has priority: Upper Hand at +3 and Sucker Punch at +1.
That pool is what the team builder reads from when you seat it, and the damage calculator will take it as the attacker with the form already chosen.
