[Shelcario]

Good job in showing us this X-Act as it shows us how different CAP and Little Cup metagames are compared to the other metagames.

 

[Myriad]

As always great work on these lists. Certainly will be helpful looking for good resistances.

 

[eric the espeon]

Interesting.. Hidden Power is the big thing I see different.
Probably its popularity in LC is because a 2x SE Hidden Power if often enough to 1KO most opponents in LC, where as in Lv. 100 play 2x SE will rarely 1KO anything but the most frail Pokemon.
Also Roost the most common healing move in LC sits at 1.68% withRest having 0.98%, where as in Lv. 100 you have Rest 7.23% then Roost at 7.18%.

I like all these things you are coming out with X-Act, great fun.

 

[Infiltrator]

I got to agree with the others great work on the lists.

 

[TPM]

Wow, the LC list is way different then most:
Standard Ladder: Sucker Punch 1.62%
LittleCup Ladder: Sucker Punch 15.04%
I didn't realise it was the 4th most common (though with the what should be uber krow everywhere it makes sense)
Another thing about priority moves:
Standard Ladder: Fake Out 0.79%
LittleCup Ladder: Fake Out 5.7%

It would be nice to have a link to this somewhere central where it can be references without thread digging.
