Is Smogon gonna just keep adding more _U metagames in the future? We are just gonna get more and more pokemon, meaning current pokemon will naturally shift down a tier like they're doing now. Are we going to eventually run out of letters to use? What's the endgame to all this?

clearly its going to be when pokemon ends

Pokémon isnt going to end though.

The goal of the tiering system, ideally, is to let as many Pokemon as possible have a viable niche in at least one meta. Obviously BL hells exist and there are mons that can't be saved like Unown or Ledian but it's either accept those losses or deal with 700+ mons being unviable on Batttle Spot.

>>33309970
yes it will
>>
>>33310177
No it wont. Its the most grossing media in the world.
>>
>>33309919
No, usage criteria will eventualy change resulting in larger tiers.
>>
>>33310247
Pokemon's gonna migrate to mobiles in 15 years. It's only downhill from there. I give it max 30 years
>>
>>33310307
This will be the longest screencap I ever done.

Is there an active community for anything outside Ubers, OU, UU and LC?
The others are playable tiers but when there are so many of them now you have to wonder if they can even sustain a playerbase.
>>
>>33310331
NU is pretty big, probably bigger than LC. PU is pretty active too. RU is basically a graveyard no matter the gen and I can't figure out why
>>
>>33310307
It will stay on nintendo consoles unless they stop making consoles they would probably move to mobile but mobile would be so powerful by that time so it wouldnt matter
>>
>>33309919
>when they DU (Dont Use) and Ledian is STILL not viable in it.
>>
>>33310349
There's not a lot of appeal for it I guess, OU and UU are were it's happening ecery gen and NU and LC have the appeal of shitmons and 1st stage only mons.
RU is a special hell

>Slaking is only C- rank in that tier
