Many tiers have this and I believe that we should as well. I will begin with this list as being empty and you may choose how to tier a certain pokemon. Remember: "X Should Be Y Tier" is not allowed. Instead "X Should Be Y Tier+Good Arguement / Explanation."
S-Rank: Reserved for Pokemon that simply put, are really good at what they do. These Pokemon are able to function extremely well without much support needed. In addition, they can still wreak havoc even when the opposing team has a counter for it. For defensive Pokemon, these are really hard to take down and can get around counters a good percentage of the time.

A-Rank: Reserved for Pokemon that are not as great at what they do as those in S-Rank. This could be due to a flaw like lower damage output or a crippling weakness. For defensive Pokemon, these Pokemon are still very good but are may be weak to a common type or pretty poor movepool. Additionally, these Pokemon function better with support but can still function well without it.

B-Rank: Reserved for Pokemon that are outclassed by those in A & S-Rank but given good support, can do well, especially against teams that are not completely prepared for it.
