Rank usage

Singles and doubles usage ranks, and the percentages for moves, items, abilities, and natures, are Pokémon Champions official rankings compiled by PokeChamps.

  • Each statistics sentence states the season, the ranking timestamp, and the regulation.
  • Move, item, ability, and nature percentages are shares inside that ranking snapshot.
  • When that ranking includes a battle count, the sentence includes it as the sample size. Snapshots without a battle count omit the sample.
  • This section is a different source from the Counters tab (Smogon) below.

Counter Statistics (Smogon C&C)

The 「Counters」 tab on the statistics screen is based on Checks and Counters aggregated by Smogon University from Pokémon Showdown ladder logs.

  • Formats: `gen9championsbssregma` / `gen9championsbssregmb`, cutoff 1500
  • Multiple months are combined with n-weighting
  • Smogon does not provide doubles battle C&C, so counters in doubles statistics also display singles BSS data
  • Meta, sample sizes, and rules may differ between the Showdown environment and Nintendo Switch ranked matches
