As is the case with the end of every Battle Spot season, based Nouthuca (the go to stats guy in the Japanese Pokemon competitive scene) complied data of the teams used by the highest 200 ranking players in all Battle Spot formats, as well as the population of every Battle Spot format.
This post will focus on the population, though I'll probably make another thread linking the teams later today after work since I don't have time to do it now, unless someone else wants to do it, in which case go ahead.
Since the charts are in Japanese I'll need to explain them a bit. The first two rows are the rating categories obviously. The 3rd row is the amount of players with that rating or higher, with the 4th row then being the amount of players actually in that rating category. The 5th row is then the percentage of players in each rating category, with the 6th row then being the percentage of players with that rating or higher.
Now without further ado
Battle Spot Singles (~247,000 players):-

The fact that 28,000 people could actually tolerate the clusterfuck that was Special Season 2 amazes me desu famalams.
