Metagame 1v1 Old Gens

Darkrai - Unban (2/28 = 7.14%)
Darkrai - Do Not Unban (16/28 = 57.14%)
This vote includes DripLegend, who was meant to be included from OGPL3 but was missed. He voted Do Not Unban. The rest of the votes can be found on the Suspect Page

Even if all remaining voters vote Unban, the highest ban% that can be achieved is 44% which is well below the required 60%. As such Darkrai will remain banned in Gen 7 1v1

There was a little bit of unrest because we mistakenly forgot to add a couple players from recent tournaments. However, even if we added 10 more players who all vote Unban, the required 60% supermajority would still not be reached, so I've decided it's not worth the hassle.
Also, since this suspect does not count towards TC I've closed the vote early.

Greetings!

In light of the metagame development in DPP 1v1, updates to the current samples teams would be necessary. We kindly encourage and ask for any DPP players or enthusiasts to submit as many teams are you could.

For guidance in building teams, set theories have been compiled by Elo Bandit which contains certain sets to use or benchmarks that could be used for creating your own sets.

Additionally, there is also an importable sets paste

Good day, everyone! Time to make a rather long-overdue announcement to the 1v1 community:

Due to circumstances leading to a new chapter in my life, I am unfortunately expressing my retirement in leading (and being part of the council in) the DPP 1v1 metagame. This marks the new chapter of the DPP 1v1 metagame as I have officially passed the torch to co-leader stravench as the sole leader. I am optimistic stravench's leadership and the current council body keeps on working to develop the metagame, and I am optimistic that this metagame will reach newer heights in the future.

Of course, before I get to announce my retirement, we've been working on revamping viability rankings (looking at you Jamez and Nuxl) and I myself am working on my ultimate DPP 1v1 Team Showcase for all interested players to steal and tinker to their liking. Please do take note that the team showcase is 85% complete, and new team updates will be added eventually. That said, enjoy the madness!

Tagging Felucia to officially make necessary changes with this announcement. Cheers, and see you whenever we see you!
