A few which might be worth adding:

524 / Cloyster / 70 / Positive / 252 / +2
519 / Infernape / 108 / Positive / 252 / +1
420 / Basculegion / 78 / Positive/ 252 / +1
262 / Cloyster / 70 / Positive / 252 / 0
255 / Basculegion / 78 / Neutral / 252 / 0
240 / Farigiraf, Abomasnow, Incineroar, Magnezone / 60 / Positive / 252 / 0
219 / Abomasnow, Grimmsnarl, Incineroar, Minior-Meteor, Magnezone / 60 / Neutral / 252 / 0
156 / Sylveon, Abomasnow, Porygon2, Decidueye-Hisui, Grimmsnarl, Swampert, Incineroar / 60 / Neutral / 0 / 0
 
Should probably add

420 / Basculegion, Feraligatr / 78 / Positive / 252 / +1
280 / Basculegion, Feraligatr / 78 / Positive / 252 / 0
 
Would it make sense to remove banned/outdated entries? For example mons like Floatzel and Decidueye who see minimal usage, or those like Overqwil, Armarouge, and Chansey who have since been banned

banned mons should be removed yep, I'll handle that now

low usage stuff I'll leave up to the discretion of the project hosts
 
Few edits I'd suggest based on current viability rankings and usage:

To add:
612 / Porygon-Z / 90 / Positive / 252 / +2
541 / Cinccino / 115 / Positive / 252 / +1
524 / Ludicolo / 70 / Positive / 252 / +2
513 / Munkidori / 106 / Positive / 252 / +1
492 / Flygon, Staraptor, Tauros-Paldea-Aqua, Tauros-Paldea-Blaze / 100 / Positive / 252 / +1
478 / Ludicolo / 70 / Neutal / 252 / +2
475 / Typhlosion-Hisui / 95 / Positive / 252 / +1
459 / Porygon-Z / 90 / Positive / 252 / +1
426 / Chandelure / 80 / Positive / 252 / +1

176 / Wo-Chien / 70 / Neutral / 0 / 0
136 / Diance / 50 / Neutral / 0 / 0
94 / Diance / 50 / Negative / 0 / 0 / 0 (IVs)

To remove:
678 / Minior / 120 / Neutral / 252 / +2
568 / Venusaur / 80 / Positive / 252 / +2
518 / Drifblim / 80 / Neutral / 252 / +2
458 / Sandslash / 65 / Neutral / 252 / +2
456 / Vivillon / 89 / Positive / 252 / +1
442 / Heracross, Toxicroak / 85 / Positive / 252 / +1 - Scarf Toxicroak isn't a thing
438 / Minior-Meteor / 60 / Neutral / 252 / +2
339 / Minior / 120 / Neutral / 252 / 0
337 / Delphox / 104 / Positive / 252 / 0
273 / Smeargle / 75 / Positive / 252 / 0

229 / Braviary-Hisui / 65 / Neutral / 252 / 0
219 / Abomasnow, Sylveon, Minior-Meteor, Incineroar / 60 / Neutral / 252 / 0
216 / Deoxys-D / 90 / Neutral / 0 / 0
209 / Golurk / 55 / Neutral / 252 / 0
156 / Sylveon, Abomasnow, Grimmsnarl, Swampert, Incineroar / 60 / Neutral / 0 / 0

106 / Mudsdale, Quagsire / 35 / Neutral / 0 / 0
96 / Snorlax, Copperajah, Coalossal, Slowbro-Galar / 30 / Neutral / 0 / 0
 
I think I should add Meloetta Piroette forme and the other NU pokemon as well here:

390 / Meloetta-Pirouette / 128 / positive / 252 / 0
348 / Ninetales-Alola / 109 / positive / 252 / 0
96 / Amoonguss / 30 / neutral / 0 / 0
76 / Torkoal / 20 / neutral / 0 / 0

Also, I would add those pokemon with access to Agility, Shell Smash and other Speed boosting abilities moves as well:

766 / Kilowattrel / 125 / positive / 252 / +2
744 / Inteleon / 120 / positive / 252 / +2
722 / Raikou / 115 / positive / 252 / +2
692 / Infernape / 108 / positive / 252 / +2
678 / Scyther / 105 / positive / 252 / +2
538 / Gilgar, Overqwil / 85 / neutral / 252 / +2
529 / Scream Tail / 111 / positive / 252 / +1
459 / Flamigo / 90 / positive / 252 / +1
436 / Diancie, Vileplume / 50 / positive / 252 / +2
393 / Decidueye, Breloom / 70 / positive / 252 / +1
304 / Torkoal / 20 / positive / 252 / +2
 
816 / Barraskewda / 136 / Nositive / 252 / +2
742 / Barraskewda / 136 / Neutral / 252 / +2
590 / Overqwil / 85 / Positive / 252 / +2
560 / Basculegion / 78 / Positive/ 252 / +2
538 / Overqwil / 85 / Neutral / 252 / +2
510 / Basculegion / 78 / Neutral 252 / +2
442 / Overqwil / 85 / Positive / 252 / +1
295 / Overqwil / 85 / Positive / 252 / +0
269 / Overqwil / 85 / Neutral / 252 / +0

These few I feel should be added as rain has been picking up considerably more usage since the recent tier shifts. Also, I noticed a lack of Overqwil's Speed Tiers being listed. I don't think they're any more rain speed tiers I missed but I could be wrong. Finally, tier 2 should be, "Positive Base 136 to Positive Base 85s" as Barraskewda was added.

Hi, I just got into NU and I thought I'd update the speed tiers with everyone from NU, PUBL, and PU.
