This is more information than you asked for, but it comes up a lot, so this way I can just quote this post when it comes up again.Antar what's the cutoff for quickrises in the second month?
1-0.5^(1/N)
NoGuys, we need to use Hitmonchan. We can't let it drop, so the hate towards it continues. PLEASE

So YOU are why it always gets just enough usage to stay RU every third month?Guys, we need to use Hitmonchan. We can't let it drop, so the hate towards it continues. PLEASE
Use Typhlosion so there is a shiny new mon to hate on.Guys, we need to use Hitmonchan. We can't let it drop, so the hate towards it continues. PLEASE
I'll deal with any change as long as it shakes up this horribly stagnant meta that hasn't had significant changes in five months now (just give us a drop already ;-;)| 56 | Poliwrath | 4.207% |
Enjoy it for one more month PU :^)
you guys are actually the worst tier ever(jokingly of course). You can't even drop one Pokemon. Basically a black hole.| 56 | Poliwrath | 4.207% |

A large number of Pokemon with usage about 3.41% actually indicates that the tier is incredibly diverse. So some might consider it the best tier ever.*you guys are actually the worst tier ever(jokingly of course). You can't even drop one Pokemon. Basically a black hole.
Yeah, and last time it looked like we were going to get drops in a month between tier shifts, all 7 of them got enough usage to stay NU, both in the following month and the one after that which had the tier shift. I don't really have my hopes up.| 64 | Bouffalant | 3.280% |
Magnemite at least PU gets something.
I take it this is a recently added system, no? Torn-T didn't rise to OU during the April quick shifts even though it had over 4.516%.This is more information than you asked for, but it comes up a lot, so this way I can just quote this post when it comes up again.
The cutoffs are calculated as the points at which there is less than a 50% chance of encountering the Pokemon once in N battles. The formula is:
For regular rises/drops, N=20 → 3.406%Code:1-0.5^(1/N)
For first month, N=10 for rises, 40 for drops → 6.697% / 1.718%
For second month, N=15 for rises, 30 for drops → 4.516% / 2.284%
on the other hand it also likely means you have a high percentage of teams built by people just clicking things that are listed in the tier in teambuilder, since that tends to have a pretty large effect on buffing up the usage of mons that should drop.A large number of Pokemon with usage about 3.41% actually indicates that the tier is incredibly diverse. So some might consider it the best tier ever.*
*Technically if we're going by that metric, UU beats NU...
given im fairly sure there's an observable change in usage of mons when they change tiers, even at the 1630 level, they don't seem to have enough of an idea (or at least a couple percent of them don't)Imanalt, theoretically players at the 1630-level should have some idea of what they're doing.
Legit question: how does the size of the NU viability rankings compare to those of other tiers?
In order of Pokemon listed (S-D rank):Legit question: how does the size of the NU viability rankings compare to those of other tiers?
meanwhile in Doubles we only actually bothered ranking 74 (78 if you include the "please do not use these" rankings)In order of Pokemon listed (S-D rank):
OU: 156
NU: 143
UU: 115
RU: 105
