Wow, this is amazing! Where did you find this?
Does anyone remember the thread made a while ago where they discussed the various typings of all the OU pokemon? Combining this with the actual number of usages, one could do something like assigning the number of usages of a pokemon of each typing to the respective typing as a weight.
Then for every attack, one could find every type's attacking ability by summing each typing it hits SE multiplied by the defending type's weight. For example, let's say 3 pokemon in OU use type combination A, 4 use B, 9 have C, and 1 has D.
Let's say attacking type 1 hits A B and D SE, and type 2 hits C SE. Then 1
has weight of W=(usage of A)+(usage of B)+(usage of D)=8. 2 would have a weight of W=(usage of C)=9. So even though 1 hits 3 times as many types, it's less effective than type 2, because the types type 2 hits are more common.
I don't know if you can just use the Shoddy Battle statistics and just weight by adding usage amounts and retain effectiveness, however. There may be a better way to weight types.
I won't have time to start immediately, but in about 4 hours I'll have the time I need to look up the statistics of each OU pokemon and start coming up with a list of weighted typings. If anyone would like to help out, I'd appreciate it. Again, I'm positive that in terms of coverage this is the way to go. If this is incorrect, please, tell me so, and explain why.
