Welcome to the new speed tier thread for SV LC!
As the previous speed tier thread was created for the pre-home metagame and has not been updated for over a year, I took the time to create a new speed tier thread that would reflect the current metagame. I hope that this list will be helpful for team building and helping newer players learn to recognize common speed benchmarks. If you have any suggestions for things to add or remove (I was pretty generous with what was included, any Pokémon on the Viability Ranking with a sample set on the Smogon Strategy Pokedex is included in this list) please feel free to message me on Discord (grapetylenol) or here.
