Alright everybody! Its that time again! Now that UU has been out for a few months and all, i've decided that its time to get a beta version of RU up and running with the current UU stats we have. Please note that the tier isn't quite official yet (which means as of now no subforum, suspect tests, or onsite analyses) and as the uu meta changes around this metagame is very subject to change as well. However, a beta ladder will be put up on showdown soon, and you are free to explore and discuss the beta metagame in this thread to your heart's desire, have fun :).
"Three-month" statistics for UU
Three month usage = (20*(March UU)+3*(March UU Beta)+1*(Feb UU Beta))/24
RU Banlist:
Absol, Aerodactyl, Aggron, Ampharos, Arcanine, Blastoise, Celebi, Chandelure, Chesnaught, Cloyster, Crobat, Darmanitan, Donphan, Empoleon, Entei, Florges, Flygon, Forretress, Galvantula, Gardevoir, Heracross, Hippowdon, Honchkrow, Houndoom, Jirachi, Jolteon, Kingdra, Krookodile, Machamp, Manectric, Metagross, Mew, Mienshao, Nidoking, Nidoqueen, Noivern, Porygon-Z, Porygon2, Quagsire, Roserade, Rotom-Heat, Scrafty, Slowbro, Snorlax, Starmie, Suicune, Swampert, Tentacruel, Trevenant, Umbreon, Vaporeon, Victini, Weavile,Druddigon
Everything that is OU by usage/banned from UU is also banned, so ignore stuff like hawlucha and haxorus being below the cutoff.
Druddigon is not actually banned, inside joke
To start off a bit of discussion, some cool mons/big threats that are RU by usage atm include regular kyurem, shaymin, zoroark, froslass, reuniclus, Escavalier, toxicroak, and sableye.
