Tournament SV National Dex AG Revival - ROUND ELEVEN

View attachment 863089

(I don't have arceus forms on this tierlist, there have been 3 dark and 1 water for 21 arceus in total)

Here are the usage stats post round 2! I'll be updating this every round from here on out(round 1 wasn't posted due to low number of games) A couple of policy things on how I'll be tracking things, and then I'll get into some discussion on how this matches up with my personal expectations for this tournament.

Species clause: Even if there were 2 of a given pokemon on a team I decided to only count one of them to avoid overrepresenting certain pokemon like liepard and smeargle (lmk if you wanna see a species clauseless visualization)

Forms: any pokemon that didn't turn into a seperate form during the battle will be counted as the base form (this means that the regular groudon and 1 of the regular rayquaza were likely primal/mega, but for the sake of total accuracy they'll be listed as base)

The biggest shock to me was the lack of Deoxys speed. 2 of them being the hazard lead on the HO I built used by coolguy14604 and myself, and one screens lead used by Sami . I had deoxys very high on my personal VR as a solid lead that can do both screens and hazard leading, but HO structures seem to be preferring primal groudon for their rocks.

Calyrex Shadow was the number one used mon by a pretty decent margin over Ho-oh, who I personally rate as number 1 in the tier. This makes sense to me as calyrex is an incredibly powerful presence with much more of a flashy role than Ho-oh, seeing usage on basically every structure not dedicated to stall/a particular gimmick.

Baton pass had an incredibly high presence compared to what I was expecting. I'm not sure what to make of this, it's baton pass, feels like there's not much to say.

Chien-Pao has been doing very well for itself, with the unique role of being a soft check to revive cats that is difficult to PP stall and can function as a decent HO pokemon on its own merits. I'm a huge fan.

Trubbish has seen 2 uses over it's big cousin hydrapple, both at the hands of Da Pizza Man . Legendary.

Speaking of hydrapple, DaWoblefet 's Hydrapple balance has seen a ton of usage throughout these early rounds, and seems to be the defacto reliable "goodstuffs" team of the format thus far.

I'll be releasing a spreadsheet version of this with winrates and everything after the tournament concludes, I don't particularly care to update winrates throughout but as previously mentioned I will update usage with each round.
yay i see my tr team

3 arceus dark, 1 water, 1 fairy

Gonna be veeery limited observations because I'm tired and just wanted to get this up.

Zoroark to bait CSR is funny

First use of hydrapple outside of Dawob's sample

Only 2 baton pass uses (both by Icalvexx)

Shocking amount of cats with no giratina (This was the same last round but I frogot to mention it)
 
hm cchang21 also called act and got a loss, so 4 people were in the wrong bracket and all have played a game since so i have no clue how you would fix it
