The thread is meant to rank which sets are most effective in the current metagame.
Rules
- Do not post pointless one liners
- Pokemon's set can only be ranked as high as they are in SM Monotype Viability Rankings (For Example Gliscor on Flying cannot have an S Rank set on Flying because it is A Ranked in the SM Monotype Viability rankings)
- Flaming will not be tolerated
- Make sure the set and type is specified so that people understand what set is being discussed
