UnderUsed Viability Rankings![]() Welcome to the SM UU Viability Rankings! Here, our goal is to sort every Pokémon with viability in UU into rankings that can distinguish them all based upon their specific value in the tier. The community and the Viability Ranking's council will work together to refine the rankings from time to time to make sure they are as accurate as possible. The ranks themselves have had their meaning readjusted to more accurately allow us to rank Pokémon. Below you will find an explanation for what we are generally looking for when discussing the merits of rising and dropping specific Pokémon. S Rank will be the top of the top, incredibly dominant Pokémon who don't really have any equal. A+ and A have room for other meta defining threats that may not either: affect the meta, be easy to fit on teams, have room for breaking through checks, or have versatility that the S ranks do. A- and B+ are a catch-all collection of a variety of Pokémon who aren't quite meta defining, but still make their presence known in the tier. B Rank is generally the lowest you will be with a solidified niche in the tier. B- and C+ have room for Pokémon with either unexplored but scary potential or Pokémon with a solid niche but more defined weaknesses that prevent them from being used. C and C- will be for Pokémon that are either technically usable but outclassed or as a testing ground for rising Pokémon being used to check certain meta trends. You may also find things with very specific niches that don't warrant being placed in a higher rank. S RankSS-A RankA+AA-B RankB+BB-C RankC+CC- |
