The following are the criteria to be met when ranking Pokemon for Ranked Singles.
These Tiers are determined by how drastically a match is altered by a Pokemon being on the field. Whether it be Redirection, Support, a strong Offensive presence, a Pokemon's impactfulness determines its placement on our list.
The criteria for best Pokemon also takes into account team synergy or how well each Pokemon works in conjunction with its teammates.
The potential of Pokemon Terastallizing is also taken into account as this mechanic not only gives it an extra STAB of a different type, it can also remove its glaring weaknesses and give it new resistances.

New Off-Meta Pokemon |
|
---|
These Pokemon are both viable and legal in Ranked Battles but are outclassed by most of the Pokemon in the tier list or have a specific niche that require proper team building.
Ogerpon | Ogerpon (Wellspring Mask) | Ogerpon (Hearthflame Mask) | Ogerpon (Cornerstone Mask) |
Ogerpon, along with their different Masked Forms, are the strongest Pokemon to come out of the Teal Mask DLC. With each form having their own unique bonuses, choose which form best suits your team.
Okidogi | Munkidori | Fezandipiti |
Each of the Loyal Three legendaries have unique roles that they specialize in. Okidogi is a bulky Physical Attacker, Munkidori is a fast Special Attacker, and Fezandipiti is a great support with a diverse move pool.
The Teal Mask DLC brings back a lot of old moves, while also giving some existing moves new TMs. These new TMs allow for existing Pokemon to expand their move pools and raise their viability for competitive battles.
Tyranitar | Ceruledge | Baxcalibur | Rillaboom |
Tyranitar now has access to Knock Off. Ceruledge has a stronger STAB Ghost move in Poltergeist. Baxcalibur's Loaded Dice build now gets Scale Shot. Rillaboom can now learn Grassy Glide again. |
Tyranitar gets a new Dark-type STAB move in Knock Off, which also removes a Pokemon's held item. This helps Tyranitar add some support options when running a Sandstorm team.
Ceruledge no longer has to run Shadow Claw as its Ghost-type STAB move since it has access to Poltergeist now. Ceruledge also has a good matchup into Teal Mask and Hearthflame Mask Ogerpon.
Baxcalibur now has Scale Shot which further improves on its old Loaded Dice build. It no longer runs the risk of having to deal with Glaive Rush's downsides and can run a more consistent move in Scale Shot.
Rillaboom has access to Grassy Glide again, which gives it a +1 priority Grass-type STAB move while Grassy Terrain is up. This allows Rillaboom to heavily threaten any Water-types in the current meta.
There are a lot of Pokemon that were used in previous generations that are returning thanks to the Teal Mask DLC. Some Pokemon also got significant buffs thanks to new items and mechanics introduced in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.
Kommo-o | Galarian Weezing | Alolan Ninetales |
Kommo-o now gets Loaded Dice with boosted Scale Shot. Neutralizing Gas is back and can disable the Ruin abilities. Alolan Ninetales is a better version of Abomasnow. |
Kommo-o benefits heavily from some of the new items, especially Loaded Dice increasing the amount of times a Clangorous Soul boosted Scale Shot will hit.
Galarian Weezing returns with its amazing ability Neutralizing Gas, which negates all Pokemon abilities. Most notably the abilities of the Ruin Pokemon will longer be active.
Alolan Ninetales will now overtake Abomasnow as the best Snow Warning user in the game. It is also notable fast enough to outspeed base 100 speed Pokemon.
Empoleon | Torterra | Infernape | Shiftry |
Empoleon now has Competitive instead of Defiant. Torterra can boost its offense with Shell Smash. Infernape can now run Sp. Atk sets thanks to Aura Sphere. Shiftry how has one of the best abilities in Wind Rider. |
Empoleon's Hidden Ability was changed from Defiant to Competitive, now boosting its Special Attack whenever its stats are dropped instead of its Attack.
Torterra now has access to the move Shell Smash, which boosts its Offense and Speed by 2 stages and the cost of lowering its Defenses by 1 stage.
Infernape can now use Aura Sphere, which can catch opponents off-guard when they expect to face a Physical Attacking set instead of a Special one.
Shiftry no longer has Early Bird as one of its abilities, instead gaining Wind Rider. Wind Rider is one of the best abilities in the game because it boosts yout Attack under Tailwind or when hit by wind type moves, mostly notably Heat Wave, Bleakwind Storm, and Icy Wind. You also gain immunity to these wind type moves.
