NU Stats: August 2012

Here are my reactions to these tier stats for this month. I would have not done one for NU on account of my not playing it much as of late, but I would be a fool to react to the other tier stat shifts and not the NU's tier shifts as well.
| 1 | Amoonguss | 11452 | 15.828% | 9442 | 15.771% |
| 2 | Cinccino | 11117 | 15.365% | 9043 | 15.105% |
| 3 | Alomomola | 9624 | 13.302% | 7777 | 12.990% |
| 4 | Golurk | 9125 | 12.612% | 7713 | 12.883% |
| 5 | Absol | 9035 | 12.488% | 6952 | 11.612% |
| 8 | Armaldo | 7459 | 10.309% | 6300 | 10.523% |
These stat changes here are unsurprising. Amoongus being exceptionally popular was what would've pushed it to OU theoretically. However, Amoongus is unlikely to go to OU without being first banned from UU, a fate already having befallen Gothitelle, who was nine stat slots below Amoongus.
| 11 | Exeggutor | 6589 | 9.107% | 5435 | 9.078% |
My absence and some TLC Logic comics counteract each other to gain desired results.
| 20 | Zangoose | 5292 | 7.314% | 4068 | 6.795% |
How odd. Zangoose must've not been well-respected. Again, I blame my absence from the NU metagame on this. However, NU is not a top interest as of late, as all other tiers need much more mending in my opinion.
| 42 | Torkoal | 3609 | 4.988% | 3227 | 5.390% |
Another good Rapid Spinner! Personally, I'd hope for this to be higher up next month. I might get to work on this if I decide to do anything for NU. At the very least, it is being used more than Wartortle, which is fortunate.
| 53 | Camerupt | 2678 | 3.701% | 2342 | 3.912% |
The biggest problem with my absence in NU of all: Camerupt being used less than Charizard. T_T
Other than that, I look forward to Metang, Roselia, Munchlax, and Rhydon dropping to NU. If only because none of the aforementioned drops threaten NU's metagame.
