Dps per type change
The dps per type has been changed and with it I found some interesting changes.
- Counter / close combat is now better than counter / dynamic punch?
- Tyranitar no longer has the highest dark type dps?
- Dragonite with Dragon tail / Dragon claw as the highest dps ?
- Zapdos with thunder?!?
Let me know what you think of the list, is it correct?

What do you mean by "correct"?
That these are the best performing mons of this type or the best movesets for them?
This is a simple DPS calculation which since it includes charge move DPS is not anything to base your power ups on. When you add in certain attackers that you may be striving to take down it becomes even less effective a list.
In short there is no real tie between this list and actual gameplay which is really discussable. It is too simplified and accounts for things that skew to far from true relevancy like charge move DPS.
Yeah, this^ + dps/move shouldn't be your sole indicator. Many fast moves with slightly lower dps are much better for attacking since they increase dodgeability and can synergize better with certain charged moves.
This allows for more surbivability and creates additional opportunities to use charged attacks (especially those with 2-3 bars), resulting in more total damage/battle.
