1337 stats!
This data only takes into account teams whose user has a current rating--as of 4/1--of 1337 or higher. In tiers where there were not enough players with a rating that high, I lowered the cutoff as specified.

OU

RU


NU

Caterpie's String Shot + Bug Bite set would be broken in OU if it weren't for Quilava being a hard counter to him.

I am glad that Rotom-H is getting the love it deserves, especially because the famous charge beam resttalk set hard counters the vicious noctowl.

Good job Antar!

Now maybe people will stop whining about Electivire "getting less usage than it deserves". Can't get much better than #1!

Thanks Antar. Normally it takes a few days, understandably with all the numbers and stuff that I don't even get, but you were really on it this month, so kudoson the speedy stats.

Do you remember when you first started giving us stats and you said to let you know if something looked off? Well something looks off. Grumpig should not be #5. It has no good sets, and unlike the top 4, counters no relevant threats in the metagame. I've seen like 2 Grumpig while laddering, and it's just unviable - mediocrity to the extreme. If you could check on that, make sure that it's accurate, I'd appreciate it. But other than Grumpig's unnaturally high usage, they look great.

And thanks agains for the stats Antar. <3


Alomomola is heading for #1 baby! Oh yeah! Don't stop till you reach the top, my heart-fish!

I have been telling people this for so long. What is a resisted scizor bullet punch going to do electivire? Nothing. He shrugs it off and uses flamethrower. Rotom-W? Volt switch gets absorbed by motor drive and sets you up to get swept. Landorus and dragonite? Ohko'd by ice punch. Tyranitar? Cross chop.

Ground attacks? Balloon electivire is completely immune. Now he has no weaknesses and you aren't going to do jack shit. Electivire has no counters, no safe switch ins, NO CHECKS. Perfect coverage does that to a Pokemon.

Even if you pop the balloon, every good electivire user carries a squirtle AND a sunken. Ground type pokemon are only good for killing electivire, but the aforementioned threats keep them from surviving in OU at all.

Who's your favorite Pokemon? FUCK YOU. NOBODY CARES. BECAUSE IT SURE ISN'T AS AWESOME AS THIS HERE ELECTIVIRE.
