This page is being left for historic purposes. This was considered a really well balanced and fun meta, and it may be something you would want to play among friends. This is no longer an up to date VR.

If you're unfamiliar with RBY NU, this is a project that will be started after RBY UU has settled (which is why this tier is in pre-alph) hopefully this year or early next year. There's a small but growing playerbase that is continuously exploring and testing. If you're interested in the tier, you can also discuss it in the discord, here. Also note that this tier is completely different than PokemonPerfect's tiers.

Golduck
Golduck was quickbanned after it was found to absolutely dominate every single game. Every game became about beating your opponent's Golduck so that you could sweep with your own. It's honestly more important to a team/game than Mewtwo in Ubers. One day we will have to give it an actual suspect, but unless there are some serious changes to the tier, then there is little doubt it will be banned again
