Tier Creation
The first thing we'll be doing with the random dex is deciding wether pokemon should be classified in the Uber, Overused or Underused formats. Overused is the base format, Uber is Overused's banlist and Underused is for pokemon too weak for Overused.
Making Resources
Once we've set a balance for the formats, we will then focus on making resources, including viability rankings, common sets and teammates for each pokemon. The Overused viability rankings will notably determine which pokemon will be Underused. B- pokemon and below will be dropped a tier.

Random Dex
Welcome to Random Dex! In this petmod, 80 randomly selected fully-evolved pokemon as well as their pre-evolutions will make the metagame. The goal will be to make an Overused, Underused and Uber format for this new pokédex, as well as determining viability, sets, cores and everything else that makes a metagame.
