Shouldn't be here, should be in Competitive battling.

NU- Neverused
UU- Underused
OU- Overused

These are tiers found on smogon

These make battling more fair

For instance, the opponent has a Dragonite, Salamence, Garchomp(sometimes OU/Uber), Blissey, Scizor, Cresselia.
And
Your team is full of UU/NU pokes, of course you are gonna lose becuase your opponent has the most cliche of the OUs.

They are tiers based on the power

Uber (top tier) > OU (overused) > BL (borderline) > UU (underused) > NU (never used) > NFE (not fully evolved)

it seems that any post I reply to aladdin will be twisted into some kind of argument nomatter what it is.  I bet if I said "Hi" it'd be like "wow you are so condescending in the way you said Hi! rwr"
