Gen 3 Ratings?

We've got a gen 3 analysis now, how far behind will the ratings for these pokemon and updated ratings for pokemon that got new moves be? Can't tell if they're supposed to be on the individual pages or not.

GP usually takes a week or 2 (maybe 3) to put up their ratings.

Most sites will just use spreadsheets and order things according to raw neutral dps - which is OK for a very basic listing, where the priority is being 'first' to produce a list.

GP however takes into account, the meta, the mons uses/relevance, as well as moveset dps. They use full simulations against multiple meta relevant opponents with all movesets.
This takes time.

Sure, in many cases the listings they end up with will be similar to pure dps spreadsheet lists, but it is the differences that are key to making GP listings the most reliable and most robust around.

I personally am happy to wait while they do all this work for us, to give us the most robust and meta relevant rankings.

You're right, and thank you. This was helpful and I will also gladly wait for their release.

Well, I'm not. I'm going to quit the game over that.

Oops, sorry, my inner HarryTipper2 was getting out, ....

Ratings are irrelevant while any Noob can take down any gym.

Having stronger attackers might make you take it down a few minutes faster, big whoop.
