Default Smogon University PO Statistics — June 2012

Exciting times! Usage-based tier shifts and the release of Pokemon Black & White 2.

Several people have asked me whether July 1 is really the best time to be updating the tiers, since all the newly released move tutors, pokemon, formes and Dream World abilities are bound to shake up the metagames. I say hell yes. By generating tiers this month, we're starting the BW2 metagame off on the best footing--like cleaning up your apartment right before a new roommate moves in. Furthermore, it's going to take the metagames time to adjust to the new formes, abilities and moves. Longer than one month, for sure, and we shouldn't be rushing to make tiering decisions while the new metagame is still evolving. Anything that's obviously broken can get banned into the borderline tiers. That's what they're for.

ANYWAY, without further ado...
