    hello, i have a couple questions about how ADV NU was formed. I am working on an ADV PU project for fun, and was recently told that NU was not found through usage. If so, what was the process?
    Oglemi

    A combination of pre-existing attempts at creating an ADV NU as there never was a formal NU tier during its time as the main generation. Smogon had its own NU list which was just a list of Pokemon deemed not good enough to be considered UU, Project NU refined that list to create a more stable metagame with some people on PO expanding on it. I took back the metagame, included NFEs after PO had banned all of them, and then dropped some Pokemon out of UU into NU based on current trends seen in UU.

    i see...so if PU were to adopt something similar, would it be possible to simply take the gen3 NU VR and make a cutoff, or do u recommend taking ur approach to the letter and asking people about what they think should be in?

    I would probably take a portion of usage stats in tournaments, vr rankings and then get a feel from people after you create an initial cutoff

    hey thanks for the reply on the adv uu thread. Idk if you know much about it, but I'm pretty interested in old gen policy in general at the moment. I know old gen metas tend to not really be touched much, save for the odd ban or unban (sand rush + sand stream, chandelure + hail in bw UU). Do you know if theres any explicit policy about how that sort of thing is dealt with?
    Oglemi
    Oglemi
    There's no explicit policy on past gen tiering. When I was an admin the general feeling was that past gen tiering would only be touched if there was a feeling of general community consensus that something should be done, and then the SS most involved with the tier in question would direct community discussion on how to proceed with any sort of changes, whether it be a community vote of some kind or an administrative change
