I got tired of seeing baseless takes about the state of the game so I decided to compile a tier list based off of usage in the top 50 ranked players. This is objective data, but it's important to note that just because a character is overplayed does not necessarily mean that they are OP. It also does not mean the inverse, but I feel like making a tier list off data since we get absolutely none is probably the best way to go.
Some interesting takeaways from this I noticed was that pretty much all of the top 25 players spammed only 1 pokemon, while 26-50 tended to have a mixture of a handful of them.
