>>33795797>couldn't they just count seperate abilities as separate pokemon for usageYes but just think about how many additional pokemon that are. I mean obviously not every pokemon has 2-3 abilities and 2 abilities would mlst likely share the same tier but that would still be a huge fucking mess. People are already bitching about BL having too many mons. Also there would be even more mons that would end up being absolutely useless because there is a good chance a better mon without its OU/UU ability would still be better in RU, NU so it is PU unless the other mon is banned like i said. Then you have a mon with 2 not so great abilities but one is a bit better so everyone obviously uses it and because of that the usage of the other is like 1% so it drops but its probably still to good for the lower tier so suspect>BL and you have to do that for everything.
We already see how hard it is to balance the tiers with the mons we got and they add more every game, and each of them will have 2+ abilities again...
As already mentioned it would be way easier to reduce it to Ubers for mons like Blazikan or Greninja.
