Resource SS RU Viability List Post-DLC

[Denial]

Welcome everyone to yet again another viability list. DLC is gonna have a huge impact on the metagame, so for now we will compile a preliminary list to help you recognize the major threats of the metagame. The team that worked on this list is composed by:

• Ajna
• atomicllamas
• Averardo
• Bebo
• EviGaro
• Feliburn
• MrAldo
• odr
• phantom

The rankings will be divided in 3 groups, which are:

• High Tier: Top tier Pokemon that you will commonly play against. Their presence has a huge impact on teambuilding and will always pull their weight when used.
• Mid Tier: Pokemon that are solid options but are less consistent and require more support.
• Low tier: Pokemon that are seen as viable but lack consistency and effectiveness.​
