Thread: URPG Tiers (For reals this time)

So I made this, mostly because I was bored and wanted to do something that wasn't grading/Pokefarm. I don't know if these will even be useful for anything, but yeah. If you think something should be switched around or if I did something stupid like misspell one of these, comment below. Also, these are all FE Pokemon.

Nice list, but Jirachi's spelled wrong.

Looking good, but one thing for now Liligant is listed as OU, probably put it in BL or UU for now, as as far as I know there is only one lilligant in URPG, and nothing can be overused if it's not there

Ambipom, Scizor, Gyarados, Aerodactyl, Breloom, Excadrill, Eelektross, Chandelure, Accelgor, Hydreigon, Rotom, Yanmega, Zoroark, Volcarona, Ditto, Smeargle, Blissey all need moving up.

Shedinja, Butterfree, Omastar, Ampharos, Vespiquen all need moving down.

This, as the only person who owns a Lilligant currently I'll say that its honestly nothing good since its moves are pretty much limited to grass. It should be UU for sure, possibly even NU. Also the list has no Porygon-Z

Electrode --> BL/OU
Durant --> UU/BL
Lilligant --> UU/NU
Yanmega --> BL/OU
Electivire --> UU

Excadrill in BL? I think it should be OU.

Alot of the BL line needs to move up to OU. I mean Ludicolo is everywhere

Oh derrrrrrp.

@everyone else, yeah I'll move shit up and down

Why is Stunfisk not Uber?

Stunfisk isn't uber because we shouldn't encourage Synth. We tolerate him.

This is hardly accurate. Tiers should have been determined by usage, not potential - something that can't be accurately described in the URPG because of the unlimited movepool allowed. Almost anything is viable here, where as in competitive battling, the list is much smaller.

Edit: Besides, black and white hasn't been out long enough to determine usage tiers for that generation.

Yeah, I had a lot of trouble sorting the Gen V Pokemon. I was trying to sort this through a mixture of how often they're actually used at the moment and how often they will EVENTUALLY be used (because Black and White changed the game a bit). That's why I'm going to keep moving things around until it's more accurate.

Wrong. Tiers can be determined by multiple methods, such as by discussion, analysis, and/or match ups against other characters. How do you think they make tiers for fighting games like Smash Bros. and Street Fighter?

Also, you seem to be confused. BL is not a tier of its own, it is a ban list from UU. Similarly, ubers is a ban list from OU. I would just name them tiers 1-4 anyway. Also, I don't feel you are qualified to run such a list. Electivire in OU and Scizor in UU? So basically...*wet blanket*
