Ranked OU and UU tier rotation?

[Eaty]

We are currently thinking about introducing a Ranked OU and UU tiers rotation.

This would look like this: 2-3 months OU and 1 month UU based on the OU seasons.

 

How would the UnderUsed tier work?

It's pretty simple, UU bans:

• The same bans as OU,
• Drought and Drizzle, 
• Pokemon with more than 4.52% usage,
  • Example (list based on last 60 days): 
    Spoiler

    

     

• UUBL (UnderUsed Banlist)
  •  UUBL is the banlist for UU and is not a playable tier.
  •  UUBL will be discussed within the PvP Council.

 

 

Give us your opinion about this below! Please explain your statements. The rotation time can be commented on.

Sounds fun, this way UU pokes can shine aswell

Its a great idea! Pokemon that couldnt see so much popularity due to being overshadowed could finally be usefull in pvp.

Pro: 
++ More variety for PVP 
+ Rising economy because certain Pokemon might be more valuable

Con:
- Some players might drop PVP for a whole month

 

Maybe add a new Queue aside of OU (would've to be discussed in which way the ladder would work after)

I see this wrong, since you can not freely use any pokemon.

Totally agree since we can use our imagination as many most-used mon aren't allowed, that will be really fun so why not ^^

[Zartelust]

Yes, awesome idea! Every change to this stale meta is more than welcome

[Bash]

Nah. I want OU action.

Great idea. Good to mix it up and force some creative team building strategies outside of the top usage.

Why not make a seperate queue for UU? Forcing people to play UU might not be the healthiest thing.
