Super Training and Pokémon Amie are inefficient, and will not be considered.This causes a bias that means everything gets tiered higher, and I want a more accurate reflection on its performance. This is because the increase in growth over time means you could easily out-level other opponents by at least 10 levels later in the game, and of course Pokémon are going to do a better job against something when they are that much higher. Ralts (Gardevoir) is not Bottom Tier because Abra (Alakazam) does its job better - in fact, Ralts (Gardevoir) is ranked in S-Rank with Abra (Alakazam)! Pokémon are ranked based off of their OWN merit, not how the shape up compared to the rest of the Pokémon. Unlike with Viabilitiy Rankings, we DO NOT base a Pokémon's ranking by comparing it with other Pokémon.Even the worst of the worst, fully-evolved-but-should-really-be-LC shitmons.Ĭlick to expand.(These aren't the official writeups, it just gives some structure to your nominations).Īnd finally, a couple of final guidelines to follow: If you talk about Pokémon being a certain rank because of an egg move or Hidden Ability, I will ask one of OI's lovely moderators to delete your post.Įverything else will be ranked, though. This is because a good egg move, for many Pokémon, will make them a much higher tier than what they are right now. Excluding the forced Poochyena early on in the game, Pokémon with egg moves will not be tiered. This has a handy feature of letting you find Pokémon at a higher level than the others in that area, Pokémon with their Hidden Ability, or for their first moveslot to have a random egg move instead of what it should be.
They are not available for capture in Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphireįurthermore, Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire introduced the PokéNax Plus.If a Pokémon is any of the below criteria, they will be excluded from this tier list: What Pokémon are being excluded from this tier list? If it didn't have Truant, it would probably be high or top).įor further tiering guidance, please read post #324. Occasionally a random "other" thing solely dictates a Pokémon's rank (e.g Slakoth is bottom tier solely because of Truant. Examples are megas, primal reversions or abilities which can play a small role in a Pokémon's placement. Major Battles - How does the Pokémon fare in major battles, such as Gym Leaders, fights against your rival and criminal team admins/leaders? The better a Pokémon does against these major fights, the higher they are ranked. Movepool - What moves does the Pokémon get? Pokémon with a wider range of useful moves are generally ranked higher than Pokémon with shallower movesets. Defensive Pokémon are generally ranked lower than offensive Pokémon, as they are less efficient. This is probably the most important category, as it can override the rest of the categories if the stats are good enough (e.g Groudon and Kyogre) but can also cripple Pokémon (e.g Luvdisc). Stats - What are the Pokémon's stats? How good are they for efficient in-game runs? The better a Pokémon's stats for in-game runs, the higher they will be ranked. Typing - What is the Pokémon's typing? How good is it in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire? The better a Pokémon's typing for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the higher the rank. Pokémon that require considerable backtracking and/or HM moves are generally lower than other Pokémon. The current tiers are:Ī Pokémon's rank is decided by these 6 factors:Īvailability - How early is the Pokémon found? Does it require considerable backtracking or HM moves? The earlier you find a Pokémon, the better they are in this category. If there is need for new tiers, though, they will be created.
In this in-game tier list there will be 5 tiers. In-game tier lists rank Pokémon on their usefulness and efficientness throughout an in-game playthrough (from the start of the game to the first viewing credits).
