Alas, I haven't even been to the Smogon server, it got set up while I was on a cruise and I haven't opened Shoddy since. I should give the UU ladder a try again some time.
Also, so I can look at this later.
Interesting, only 23% of Apes run +Speed... That could be a fun thing to abuse...

this is awesome. i expected the azelf lead to be high, but not 2nd. thanks a lot.
| Infernape | Nature | Naive | 55.2 |
| Infernape | Nature | Hasty | 11.1 |
People follow the smogon dex religiously. Naive is only slightly more preferable than hasty. If at all, you don't really want to be taking hits in the first place. Anyway this made me lol a little so I thought i'd bring it up.

yeah thats so random lol
Thanks to some changes made by Colin about a month ago, the logs actually contain specific information that is intended to be parsed programmatically. So, finding the information in the logs is not as hard as it may seem. Collecting, saving, error handling, and reporting the statistics was the hardest part. Getting the raw data itself was pretty easy.
Yes, parsing a couple hundred thousand battle logs takes a very long time. Because of that, testing was the most frustrating part of the coding process. Every time there was a bug, I would have to fix it and re-run, which would take more than an hour sometimes. Doing that over and over was very exasperating. But, now that it works, it's much less of a pain to improve.
There are two likely causes -- 1) There were ladder bugs at the very beginning of the UU ladder. Those bugs were quickly fixed. But any battles conducted prior to the fix would report in the stats. 2) There was a nasty bug that caused some logs to occasionally get corrupted text. It's possible that corrupted text could cause the program to assign a log to the wrong ladder.
On August 3, I fixed the bug that caused the corruption. So it should not be an issue for the August stats, except for the first two days of battling. The percentage of corrupted logs was very small before, so it will be even smaller in August, and non-existent in September stats forward.
I can report these percentages in the stats. I have the total number of battles parsed per ladder, so it is very easy to report this. I'll add that in my next version of the stats -- which should be complete a little later today.

I think I could answer that with: Smogon is a big name in Pokemon and a lot of new people come on to the server recognizing. They usually use Pokemon Like Charizard and Mewtwo because they generally lack skill. Either these people dont know about ladder or just wont use it because mewtwo and dialga are banned there I dont know but they then procede to use charizard and such in unrated battles.
For all we know, the Charizard users might be good players trying new things without risking their ranking.
I'm wondering, how did you decide which attacks show up on the move listing and which didn't? I am very interested in the difference between pokemon who have the option of using Flamethrower and Fire Blast, and on other pokemon such as Celebi, who have a very high "other" move percentage.
Great statistics though. I am very pleased with the huge spike in Deoxys usage over the last couple of months, since the solidification into OU.

The moves are ranked in order of usage. There is no set limit. It was a sliding scale. Here's the logic for ALL entries in the list, not just moves:
All entries are sorted by percentage, highest percentage first. Then the program processes each one, starting from the top, deciding whether to show the entry or roll it into Other.
If there are 2 or less entries, then both are always shown.
If the entry has >20%, it is always shown.
If the entry has <20% AND there are already 7 or more displayed entries, then the entry is rolled into Other.
If the entry has <15% AND there are already 5 or more displayed entries, then the entry is rolled into Other.
If the entry has <10% AND there are already 3 or more displayed entries, then the entry is rolled into Other.
If the entry has <5%, it is rolled into Other.
There's also some special logic to prevent one lone entry being rolled into Other.
I am currently in the process of tweaking the stats to eliminate some of the "noise" in Other. And, I will be changing the way the Other percentage is calculated and displayed. I will post about the changes when the results are complete.
This is excellent! As someone who likes to find unique pokemon to breed/SR/chain for Wi-Fi that will be popular, this is excellent. Although it's obviously not designed for that purpose, it works wonders, so I'll thank you on behalf of the Wi-Fi Forum.
A few things confuse me, however, like the extraordinary amount of Lonely natures where they don't seem to belong. I imagine this is because Shoddy defaults to Lonely, but stats like 13% of Articunos, Blastoises and Manaphys seems a little outlandish to me. An error perhaps, or just a lot of forgetful people?

According to damage calcs life orb bullet punch hits luke for (19.5% - 23.4%), which is garbage, he takes LO damage then you hit with vacuum wave for (94.33% - 111.35%) (not modest). I don't think you need to worry about outspeeding something that gets completely raped. unless you worry about CC, in which case vacuum wave beats him out anyways, and if he's taken 1 LO recoil you win.
For D-E, I love priority moves (especially sucker punch, which can almost 1hko him), so him being fast doesn't really matter.
