PKMN.NET :: Underused :: Competitive Battling Gen IV Tiers
Competitive Battling Gen IV Tiers: Underused |

UU stands for Underused and Pokemon in this list tend not to get used in standard play due to worse stats or a poorer movepool. People are attracted to this metagame because they are fed up of the few standard Pokémon dominating the OU metagame. Pokémon in higher tiers are not allowed, and Pokemon from NU are. Note that this exact list is specific to PKMN.NET and the DP metagame.

GLACEY! NO!

Glaceon's stat spread is really poor, and its movepool is also pretty bad. No chance of any sort of UU centralization either.

Aggron simply has a horrible typing. It is cut out like Rhyperior, it's supposed to be a physical sponge. Aggron sports a X4 weakness to what could be the two most commonly used physical attacking types, Ground and Fighting. A physical wall that is OHKOed by an Earthquake or Close Combat is not a good one at all. It's like making a special wall with a x4 weakness to psychic

Why are Muk and Blastoise up there?
Lord Raven on Sun 24 Feb 2008 05:10:49 UTC.
Muk is a meh Pokemon overall, and Blastoise isn't really that great. :/
Tomaius on Fri 13 Jun 2008 10:32:14 UTC.
Why are there unevolved pkmn in here?
Dragonpika on Sun 22 Jun 2008 11:33:15 UTC.
Cause they fare here just as well as the evolved Pokémon.

if only spiritomb could have the ability wonder guard...

Pwned by any Stat inflictig move, Swampert123.
IceRain on Fri 02 Jan 2009 03:32:42 UTC.
Glaceon doesnt deserve to be here. neither does Froslass or any Ice pokemon, if it can kill an annoying dragon type then i'll use it. Why do we even have tiers? thats a little lame, tournaments should allow any pokemon but legendaries.
Webby on Wed 14 Jan 2009 18:58:16 UTC.
The Yache Berry stomps on your argument. Reduces damage from one ice attack. Froslass would be swept and Glaceon lacks speed. :\ And tiers are there for a reason.
Laprabi on Sat 07 Feb 2009 23:14:30 UTC.
Yache changes a x4 weakness to a x2 weakness, btw.
Laprabi on Sat 28 Mar 2009 19:01:34 UTC.
By the way, IceRain, not all legendaries are Uber. Look at Suicune?
usami on Sat 04 Apr 2009 03:14:27 UTC.
IceRain, Remember: tiers are not absolute. They move and change with new strategies and moves. They are decided by people to whom Pokémon is just battle after battle. Don't take it personally. And some tourneys do. They something along the lines of: "All Pokémon allowed, except Mewtwo, Girantina, Dialga, Palkia, Groudron, Raquaza, Kyogra, (don't laugh at my spelling) Wobbofet, Garchomp or any not readily obtainable Pokémon." "not readily obtainable" means event Pokémon, or hacked Pokémon. But still, you wouldn't want a Glaceon up against a Heatran, would you?
IceRain on Mon 25 May 2009 22:17:44 UTC.
Glaceon's speed stat is not the worst speed stat. usami I wouldn't put any of my pokemon up against a Heatran if I had a choice. Unless I was catching it. The reason why it seems I am mad (which I am not actually mad) is because most of the pokemon I use are on here, like Luxray, Ninetails, Butterfree, Raichu, Sandslash. It make's me feel as if the only thing I am capable of training are "not very good" pokemon.
IceRain on Mon 25 May 2009 22:21:32 UTC.
Also Webby you have to remember that a lot of the dragon pokemon are double weak to ice. therefore it would still leave a x2 weakness to ice with it holding a Yache berry. And can some one delete that double post I made a while back?

Froslass' stats may not be excellent but mine knows blizzard, thunderbolt, Wake up slap and shadow ball (yeah it's legit :)) I don't know why it's so low
Awkward Squirtle on Sat 31 Oct 2009 13:20:04 UTC.
Icerain-what about a Hippowdon
Awkward Squirtle on Tue 03 Nov 2009 19:32:45 UTC.
Where does a Rattatta slot in to these tiers?
PKBlackTornado on Sun 11 Apr 2010 21:36:11 UTC.
Luxray? UNDERUSED? Come on! I use it on my OU team, and it's great. I've KO'ed many a Foretress, etc. It should at least be borderline. I know, it's speed needs improvement, but it's decent with a good moveset.
