        Ranking Methodology

        These rankings are based on Pokémon DPS (damage per second) and TDO (total damage output), while the score is a slight modification of the EER (Effective Energy Rating) and TER (Time Equivalent Rating) metric. EER and TER are metrics invented by Reddit user u/Elastic_Space to measure the efficiency of a Pokémon's energy generation and consumption.

        EER (Effective Energy Rating) is a metric that balances DPS and TDO, focusing on how efficiently it uses energy in battle. TER does the same, but it works better if you're raiding in a large group and not going to relobby. Both evaluate how well a Pokémon uses fast and charged moves without wasting energy, giving a clearer picture of its overall effectiveness in battles. A higher EER means the Pokémon can deliver consistent damage by efficiently generating and using energy for charged moves, making it a more reliable choice in certain battle scenarios.
