You're a fucking low iq Quasimodo if you think that's how tiers work.

By retconning 90% of Pokemon out of existence and rebalancing the remaining 10%.

Every Pokémon is a copy of OU ones.

By ending Pokémon, so competitive players won't use Pokémon as tools anymore.

Easy. If the tiers are based on usage, and every Pokemon just so happened to have the exact same usage rates, then they would all by the same tier, and each would be just as overused as any other.
We don't need to change anything to do with the Pokemon, just for everyone to magically start using extremely specific Pokemon always.

Even if they're great that doesn't make them ou because that isn't how tiers work
Example ditto in NU but is viable up until ubers.

>While all non-Uber Pokémon can be used in OU, only those Pokémon that make up at least ~3.41% of total weighted usage in the tier are designated 'OU.' A Pokémon is truly 'OU' if a typical competitive player is more than 50% likely to encounter that Pokemon at least once in a given day of playing (20 battles).
Wouldn't your idea leave all pokemon with less than 3.41 usage? I'm no mathfag so I'm not sure.

Correct. If every Pokémon was used equally, they would all have less than an eighth of a percent of the total usage. However, they'd likely redefine the tier system if there were too little Pokémon with over 3.41% usage.
