ive been seeing a lot of scarfchomps though
3.41% of that statistic equates to exactly 5% of something. I'm not entirely sure what that is, but it seems to work.ohh 3.41% huh? thanks AJC! That explains why the OU list ends up with 53 Pokemon, Tornadus being the last one that qualifies.
Is there a thread here somewhere where I can read the reasoning behind this percent cutoff? 3.41% seems arbitrary too me, but I'm sure there's a reason behind it. I'd like to see if there's a way to lower the cutoff to increase the number of OU to prevent UU from being overrun by overpowered Pokemon, rather than introducing another tier between them. Hope somebody could explain it here, or at least point me to the correct thread.
There WAS no UU tier.
Look at early DP.
So many things pretty much got auto-BL'd because they didn't fit what was expected out of UU. There was something like 20 Pokémon banned.
Much later, BL and UU were merged. We have FAR fewer bans from UU as Gen 4 UU stands now. If we just assume Gen 5 UU will resemble Gen 4, we'll end up with the same problem down the road.
I don't like this system of usage determining tier. There are some really great Pokémon that are not getting used so they get demoted to a lower tier which in turn destroys everything currently in that tier. I'm starting to think there will need to be more tiers than Uber, OU, UU, and NU. Maybe an RU (Rarely Used)

hey i love how everyone is jumping on the "electivire is pretty bad" bandwagon about 2 years after it was relevant, good work guys. hey have you heard the one about chuck norris??
Most of the time, people were just answering other's questions about why Electivire is bad.

I don't think it completely resembled the ADV BL, but the total number of Pokemon banned was around 50.20? If we just imported the ADV BL list, it was a whole tier, with 40 or so pokémon.
No.I think it was something to do with the fact that Shoddy did not count Pokemon that failed to appear in the usage statistics.
banlists help. i expect a lot of shit to become BL, and UU will eventually stabilize a bit. maybe this time though NU could get a ban list or something.
Since there are quite a few more new pokemon does anyone think more pokemon should be included in OU?
