1337 stats!
This data only takes into account teams whose user has a current rating--as of 5/1--of 1337 or higher. In tiers where there were not enough players with a rating that high, I lowered the cutoff as specified.

Abomasnow finally on his way to OU? Lets sustain this for two more months!

HTML Code:
 | 55   | Virizion        | 15904  |  2.785% | 12717  |  2.685%
also wtf guys, Virizion is cool

Quite a few subtle changes up top. Heatran, Politoed, Ferrothorn, & Landorus down. Rotom-W, Tyranitar, Terrakion, and Latios up. Salamence is up 4 spots (About time,) Celebi down 5 spots, and Gyarados up 5 spots.

In the middle part of the tier, Espeon up 5, Reuniclus down 4, and Hydreigon is down 10 (no doubt Scarf Moxie Mence's handiwork.)

In the lower part, Metagross is up 4, Abomasnow up 8, Bronzong up 7 (Again, about time,) Kyurem up 6, Hippowdon is up 9, Mew's up 5, Virizion is down 8, and lastly Sableye is down 7.


There's a lot of Dragons, Psychics, & Steels shifting around this month. Nothing terribly massive but the Virizion and Hydreigon drops. Glad to see Bronzong back and Priority STAB Ice Sha-I mean Abomasnow on the rise.

Edit: | 160 | Poliwrath | 1 | 0.004% | 0 | 0.000% |

Now I KNOW I used Poliwrath a good deal while over 1337 in OU last month. What is this nonsense?

 | 5    | Cryogonal       | 4854   | 10.051% | 3851   |  9.425% |
Goes to show how good of a spinner he actually is.

1337 Stats

Marche : Wobbuffet (103) : 13 Times

April : Wobbuffet (60) : 472 Times

Interresting to see that rise and that Wob has been more used then Virizion, scarfty and Toxicroak in OU.

What the fuck, I only played like 100 matches in NU last month, but I swear It was not that common.

What the fuck are those 1200 NU kids thinking?.

How is it possible that is Virizion is so low in usage? It's the best Rotom-W counter (fu Gastrodon) and it is very good against Volt-Turn, sand and rain teams. Something is wrong with the people on the ladder.

Virizion for OU

lol at scizor and dragonite's 2 usage stats being almost identical

both the "appears on a team" usage stats and the "actually used in battle" usage stat are really close.

Oooh, Nidoqueen in RU. That should be really interesting.

And NU with no Cryogonal? No Absol? And to a lesser extent no Drifblim? That ought to shake up the tier.

Certainly hope the trends hold. I want to see Virizion in UU, too.
