BST-Based Tier Pricing Formula

Pokémon point costs are derived through our standard draft pricing formula based on Base Stat Total (BST) and competitive Smogon ladder usage tiers:

  • Tier 1 (18–20 pts): BST ≥ 580 or S-tier Smogon usage (premier sweepers & legends).
  • Tier 2 (14–17 pts): BST 530–579 or A-tier usage (central competitive core).
  • Tier 3 (10–13 pts): BST 480–529 or B-tier usage (solid balance & role compression).
  • Tier 4 (6–9 pts): BST 430–479 or C-tier usage (specialized utility & hazard control).
  • Tier 5 (1–5 pts): BST < 430 or unranked (budget fillers & lower-tier options).
