Welcome to the SS Ubers Set Compendium! The purpose of this thread is to list many (but not all) of the common sets. It will also allow players to find out what is more or less viable in the current metagame, and build a reliable team around. The order of the Pokemon is based on the actual Viability Ranking (please do not post changes about the VR, it's not the right thread to do it). Proposals or suggestions are also sought in order to expand the list of sets.

A reminder that these Pokemon are only Ubers by tiering and possess no real metagame niche.
