Moltres, Zapdos, Koga’s Weezing, Samurai’s Pinsir, Growlithe, Articuno and Mewtwo families lead this early v35 snapshot using the official Meta display formula. The data covers one day; it does not establish a stable best team.
Use the list to compare options for a team you can actually field. A late-game legendary appears in a different situation from a cheap opening unit; the average records that context as well as the Pokémon.
The v34 ranked tier list
Snapshot generated October 24, 2026 at 03:32 UTC. The feed covers October 17–23 and mixes versions; this page includes only records explicitly marked as ruleset 35. Those current-version records cover October 23 only, with 9,866 ranked seat records in the version summary. This is an early one-day sample, not a settled meta or a live dashboard. Composition and unit sample counts are their own observations; the feed’s 125,643 all-version seats are not all v35 records. Ranked results do not establish performance in Adventures or the Tower.
The table groups evolution families or named character lines, not each individual star form. The 67 displayed feed rows are not a count of collection entries. A family result does not assign the same measured strength to every evolution. Lower average finishing position is better.

What the tiers can and cannot tell you
Tiers use the official Meta display’s adjustment toward reference placement 4.01, with prior weight 20: (average × effective sample + 4.01 × 20) ÷ (effective sample + 20). The effective sample is the feed’s ne field when present, otherwise n. Relative to 4.01, adjusted placement below −0.50 is S, below −0.20 is A, up to +0.20 is B, and above +0.20 is C. The table shows unadjusted averages and n.
The raw API also supplies tier fields that can differ from this display calculation. We use the verified frontend formula consistently. This is particularly visible in the small current-version comp sample.
Expensive Pokémon often appear only in teams that survived long enough to buy them. That selection effect, the one-day window and the October 23 balance changes limit comparisons. A low placement average does not prove that buying the Pokémon causes wins. Recheck stars, item holders, sample and available copies before replacing your current team.
Turn a ranking into your next decision
- Check whether the shop actually offers the unit or a useful merge.
- Compare it with the unit it would replace, including current stars and equipment.
- Check whether the replacement activates or breaks a type bonus.
- Inspect the holder’s ability form before moving damage items.
Use concrete comps for team cores and item holders, or build decisions for choosing between a merge and another field slot. The meta overview explains the version changes behind this snapshot.
Quick questions
Is this a live tier list?
No. It is the October 24 official-feed snapshot, limited to explicit ruleset-35 records from October 23.
Does every evolution in a family have this rank?
No. The feed groups evolution families or named lines. These are not separate tests of every evolved form.
