A distant memory
The issue is objectivity. Since many people fight whatever trainer they find it is very easy to be overleveled. I experienced this first hand on my Y playthrough when I had a level 79 Azumarill by the Pokémon league with the rest mid-70's (and this is a six mon run). It was a joke and it was part of the reason why I said no to Exp. Share when I ran the XY tier list. Exp. Share has an effect that can skew a user's perception of a Pokémon that is, they think it is so good that it should be ranked higher than it deserves as well as mask the flaws that each Pokémon has. By not allowing it, we can better assess the qualities of each Pokémon and be able to more objectively determine where a Pokémon should be ranked.
I mean no one is stopping you from using Exp. Share but while it is incredibly efficient, it is bad for this tier list because everything good is skewed and everything bad is generally masked.
