I was looking at the Section of Pokemon stuck in a useless spot in NFE. Some NU pokemon appear to be much worse than The Pokemon in this spot. I decided we could rename it to something like NU2 or something more creative if anybody can think of something. We could move some up to NU, some NU pokemon down to NFE, and turn it in to a tier.
The division
Doing this would create two tiers with HUNDREDS of Pokemon in them, and some Pokemon would just become standard and seen on every team, while others would never see use even by doing this. We could therefore take some of the Pokemon out and put them in another NFE tier. To decide what goes where, I thought we could do some kind of beta test where several battlers would have battles, then give feedback about what kind of pokemon are useful and what kind should not be seen at all.
After say, 2 months or so, we could all analyze the data and put together the new NU and NU2 tiers. All these Pokemon could see use after a lifetime of being outclassed by their evolutions and being too good to be in LC.
The rules
I think we could keep the standard clauses, and all clauses used in NU. We could also, as per usual, add something. My friend and I have had matches in this style where we could only use Pokemon currently divided in to NFE, and we found Eviolite to be far too powerful. I think we could start with something like a clause that limits the number of Pokemon holding Eviolite, or that bans eviolite all together.
So, what are your thoughts? Should we do this? If so, I'll start us off. My team used a Vibrava, and I found it FAR too powerful to be NFE, and it should be NU. I used a Jolly max speed max attack one, and with a choice band, it KO'd everything and its brother.
