I probably missed some stuff, so if you have any suggestion feel free!

How is Houndstone getting to +4?

How is Houndstone getting to +4?

scarf under sand - when u have a 200 ish bp ghost stab move we can argue that scarf can be interesting to look into, especially with things like +1 flutter running around

Wouldn't it be +3 though? Scarf is +1 and sand is + 2.

 

[R8]

Wouldn't it be +3 though? Scarf is +1 and sand is + 2.

Sand Rush doubles your speed, while Scarf multiply your speed by 1.5
So your final speed will be Speed*2*1.5 = Speed*3 , which is the equivalent of +4 (As: +1 is *1.5, +2 *2, +3 is *2.5, +4 *3)

Ah I see, thanks for explaining

Update:
Remaining relevant mons added + removed the mons that recently got the banhammer. Lmk if you think something else should be added.

Edit: new update: stuff got banned, removed from the speed tiers as well

 

[Deciduii]

Why does it saythat Iron Treads has 372 speed at neutral 31 ivs 252 evs with no buffs?

Probably because some neurons in my brain decided to tell me lies

That was meant to be +1 0 EVs, fixed now. Thanks for pointing it out

It still says +0

 

[R8]

omg <@_@>

Ok, NOW it's fixed

Edit: minor update, chi-yu was removed as it got banned

 

[K302]

Garganacl isn't on the list.

Garganacl isn't on the list.

Good catch, added

R8-SAN WHY IS THE BIG BIRD NOT HERE (ESPATHRA)?!!

R8-SAN WHY IS THE BIG BIRD NOT HERE (ESPATHRA)?!!

Oops, I'll add it today when I get the time

More generally I planned to make sure the speed tiers are fully up to date (=making sure it matches with the viability rankings) before the end of the week

 

[SoBalanced]

lol love how there is like 10 espathras man

 

[R8]

Update: every pokemon present on the viability rankings should be there, excluding a couple C-ranks that do not have sample sets yet. I nuked some unranked stuff, though I might have missed some of them. Mons that are OU by usage despite being unranked will be added later, if there are any of them that still are not present.

If you have any suggestions or remark, feel free

 

[R8]

Update: espathra is gone
