Welcome to the second official Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon NU Viability Rankings. This article ranks all competitively viable and consistently usable Pokémon in the NeverUsed Tier. The general idea of the topic is to rank each NU Pokémon under "rankings" that go in descending order, from S to C. Unlike previous NU rankings, we've made the decision to be much more strict with our standards of what gets ranked in order to give the most accurate representation of the meta as possible. We have also removed the C- rank from the VR. Furthermore, Pokémon are now ordered by viability within their subranks.
