No, because they weren't even in PU in April, so their May usage is actually double that.| 79 | Arctovish | 1.976% |
| 84 | Sandslash-Alola | 1.911% |
Shouldn't these both drop to zu now because they are below the 2.28% cutoff?? Or am I wrong?

Wouldn't Quagsire drop to ZU instead of PU if it were to drop? On the month that it rose from PU to UU, it had 3.285% usage in PU, which would have been more than enough to cause it to drop to ZU.Quagsire could move from UU to PU
Is the best (only) auto Rain setter in lower tier and also Barraskuda is in RUPolitoed(C+ on the VR could probably be lower) is so bad in RU and its rising smh. no Diancie or Dhelmise rise just Politoed >:
barreskewda is far better off on non rain teams so that your not using a bad and or inconsistent team ._.Is the best (only) auto Rain setter in lower tier and also Barraskuda is in RU
I knew it but this in the only posible reason of politoed outside of zubarreskewda is far better off on non rain teams so that your not using a bad and or inconsistent team ._.
hail is better than rain in RU yet no hail setter or abuser is tierd RU. ladder is unforgiving.
sorry if this sounded rude did not mean it that way.

It already is, hello?We only need Grookey being top tier in lc... ignore smogon return to monke
I haven't touched PU in forever, but what I've seen is that sand is the only legal weather (attached to a top tier mon ) and sandslash makes for a decent sand attacker.Is this just a noobtrap thing or is there a reason usage for this has been on the rise?
tbf theres a case to be made that this is still too high a cutoff bc stuff like this still happens- Regieleki says hii used to have your opinion, but you really gotta understand that usage doesn’t equal viability. it’s better to have a pokémon swiftly get banned than to see it rot in a higher tier, because now we actually understand its capabilities in a lower tier. you constantly saw pokémon like donphan and ambipom be completely trash for an entire generation because it couldn’t get under 3.41% usage.
also, it’s not like raising the cutoff has increased the amount of bans. as i’ve said before, remember when gen 7 uu had like 24 banned pokémon? not even nu’s banlist in january could rival that
A lot of teams are relying on Bisharp to check Dragapult nowadaysedit: also i’m a little surprised that bisharp is that high in ou. i know it’s popular, and that it’s really strong with a defiant/sd boost, but is it not a bit prediction reliant due to its frailty and slow speed?
so true bestieI hate OU
So? I’d rather have 1 D rank than 7 in a tier. There is no “case” to be made from any of this. Also regieleki is very likely to drop by next months shift so this example doesn’t hold up eventbf theres a case to be made that this is still too high a cutoff bc stuff like this still happens- Regieleki says hi

Bisharp is one of the hardest Pokemon to switch into in the tier, not only serving as a fantastic wallbreaker with STAB Knock Off (which is further reinforced by Future Sight) but also a solid revenge killer, offense component with Defiant/its typing, and in some cases a late-game cleaner with access to STAB Sucker Punch. It's not really prediction-reliant since its STABs are easy to exploit for damage and progress against balances and/or Pokemon like Slowking and Choice-locked Dragapult. Most Sucker Punch targets are offensively inclined regardless, in some cases utilizing only damaging attacks (mainly in the case of choiced Pokemon like Dragapult).also i’m a little surprised that bisharp is that high in ou. i know it’s popular, and that it’s really strong with a defiant/sd boost, but is it not a bit prediction reliant due to its frailty and slow speed?
Can ou stop taking uu mons...Mew could move from UU to OU
Scizor could move from UU to OU
