Tier C Pokemon

Tier C Pokemon

Ok, so if we’re being honest, in our opinion these Pokemon are kinda bad. You should probably only choose to play with these if you’re an absolute pro and master at the game and know every counter and how to get the best out of your Pokemon. Otherwise, skip them.

How We Created This Tier List?

How We Created This Pokken Tournament DX Tier List?

Since we create many tier lists for all types of games, we like to do as much research to make sure we got all the details before we publish one. So that’s exactly what we also did when we created this Pokkén Tournament DX tier list.

We’ve done our own tests but also gone through the official Discord server and also checked the Reddit to see the opinions of other players.

But anyway, this is just our opinion, and in no way do we claim this is the most accurate Pokken Tournament DX tier list out there. It’s pretty close though 😉

The game can always get updated with new buffs or nerfs to the pokemon, and so what are today’s best Pokemon might be tomorrow’s worst, and vice versa.
