Welcome to National Dex Rarelyused! Here you may discuss all things Nat Dex RU, from thoughts on the Meta to theorymonning! Every Pokemon under the 4.52% cutoff in the National Dex Underused that is not banned to RUBL is allowed in the tier.
What people considered to be unthinkable, for even those that regularly played this tier has actually happened, a new generation bringing forth a huge amount of mons with many of the OU and UU staples stepping into the tier, it's going to be one hell of a ride. Join us in our Discord Server and be ready!

Posting Rules
- Stay on topic; make sure whatever you post has some relation to the Nat Dex RU Metagame.
- Avoid responding solely with jokes or one-liners; make sure to have some substance in your posts. Jokes and one-liners are fine in a post; just make sure you add something to the discussion as well.
- Simple questions, such as "How good is Mega Houndoom?" are allowed, but we highly recommend looking at our resources and asking the Discord before asking them here (But since this is the opening, I will allow it for a bit, just more controlled)
- Absolutely no shittalking or toxicity, posts attacking anyone will be deleted and possibly met with an infraction.
