    Resource SV BSS Viability Rankings (Regulation F)

    We've had some time for the meta to settle a bit so we're going ahead and updating the list now. Huge thanks to Photon for drafting up the current list because there were a lot of things to clean up and rearrange, meta trends that hadn't caught on at a broader level as well as some further...

    Singles 2024 Cartridge Scores

    Might as well post results since I actually got to play this season. Upper Hand Blaziken was funny. Wanted to get the 1800 run but I'll take the Top 5k finish for now.

    Update time, the VR is now updated for Regulation F. If you want to see where Regulation E ended up there is a link to an archive thread in the OP, otherwise we're all in Regulation F now. We did some cleanup in the C tier so the list is a little bit more condensed, but there are a lot of new...

    Resource BSS Regulation E Viability Rankings Archive

    Welcome to the SV Battle Stadium Singles Viability Rankings. By this point the ruleset has moved on from the current ruleset and officially ended on January 3rd 2024. While the active thread has moved on from this ruleset, here is where we ended up on Regulation E before the meta transition...

    Hi, last update before the DLC drops and inevitably shakes things up because I don't trust Game Freak to not accidentally allow the new Tera type to be legal day 1. Ultimately there wasn't a whole lot of discussion with the new DLC being on everyone's minds, but Photon's post more or less laid...

    Update time. Ultimately I think the general makeup of the VR hasn't changed dramatically from the beginning of Regulation E to now, but there's a decent pool of changes made this time around. Nothing new is being added this time though, Munkidori and Frosmoth were discussed but reception to them...

    Rules SV Battle Stadium Forum Rules & Simple Questions

    Shed Tail is interesting as a pivoting tool but Cyclizar just kinda sucks honestly. Some people had some positive opinions of it in like Regulation A but I don't think it was ever super great. Having only 3 Pokemon is the big fundamental difference though, but it's not just the fact that you...

    And it's time for a new regulation. There are honestly so many little changes that I'd be here for hours writing about all the changes here. Ogerpon-Hearthflame and Bloodmoon Ursaluna are definitely the highlight new Pokemon but there are so many notable introductions to the metagame overall...

    Tournament BSSPL VIII - Finals [Won by Dave's Dragonairs]

    Had to root for the Mexicans so it's unfortunate to see the 1st seed curse continue, but congratulations to Dave's Dragonairs for the win! It's always great to have a bunch of people less familiar with the format come into the tour and perform, this goes to everyone new who participated on...

    Bug Reports v4 -- POST BUGS HERE https://www.smogon.com/forums/ps-bug-report-form/

    Game Freak did a funny with Bloodmoon Ursaluna that appears to be currently overlooked on PS. This was brought to our attention by at least one Japanese player on PS and BSS Discord asking why Yawn was illegal on PS, but Bloodmoon Ursaluna should have access to all of regular Ursaluna's egg...

    Hi, so I just wanted to give a quick update since at this point it's pretty clear that Regulation D is effectively over with the accidental drop of the new Pokemon mid-season. I know they said it was intentional but we all know it wasn't, for the time being we won't actually be determining...

    Welcome to the SV Battle Stadium Singles Viability Rankings. By this point the ruleset has moved on from the current ruleset and officially ended on September 30th 2023, though the sudden drop of the new Pokemon introduced in the first DLC effectively ended the ruleset a few weeks early. While...

    Time for another update. There's not too many new changes this time around but there were a few glaring issues that this update will hopefully address. Photon's post covers the biggest ones but we're actually bumping Magnezone up further to A- as its performance on top teams and high usage...

    Wanted to give a quick correction to the last update, in light of Derpy's post we actually had a bit of a discussion regarding Skeledirge and felt that its removal from the list was maybe not the correct choice so it's been re-added to the list at C+ for now. So many changes that its removal...
