How is this tier list computed?
Our tier list is generated automatically from real competitive deck data — no manual curation or opinion involved. By default, only decks active within the last 3 months are included to keep rankings fresh.
Deck data collection
We track hundreds of competitive deck archetypes and their card variations from Pokémon TCG Pocket.
Time range filtering
Only decks with recent activity are included. By default, the last 3 months of data is used. You can adjust the time range with the slider to focus on the current meta or expand to include older data.
Appearance counting
Each card is scored by how many different deck variations include it within the selected time range. The more decks a card appears in, the higher its score.
Tier assignment
Cards are placed into tiers (S through F) based on their score relative to the most-used card. Cards that never appear in any deck within the selected time range are placed in F tier.
Automatic updates
The tier list is recalculated on every site build, so rankings always reflect the latest deck data.
