Pokémon Showdown's ladder system allows you to gain points ans compare yourself to players from all over the world. What is the highest ranking you've received in any given format? I haven't played super seriously in a long time so I'm curious to see how everyone else has been doing.
This was from a while ago but I got up to somewhere in the 1500s in OU. This might not seem a lot to some of you but I think it's high so...go me!!! Then I got scared and stopped laddering cause I didn't want to lose.
I think I got to around 1600s in OU just playing fairly casually at one point, then I got haxed, went on tilt got back down to the 1400s and took a long break lmao. I'm currently in the 1600s for DOU on my main and the 1500s on two other accounts, but that really isn't much of an accomplishment since you only really start seeing serious teams in the 1400s+ and stop seeing bad gimmicks at 1500s+. In other tiers I never really tried too much, I think I might have got to 1400s in UU a few times but I'm not too sure. I rarely bother to look at my ranking unless I'm actually somewhere on the ladder.
1486 on 6th Gen. Honestly I could have been doing better, but I wanted a team with a few low tier Pokémon to make it up high, and it worked. I haven't laddered with this team lately, but only because I don't want to lose my rank. I was also around 1380 on 1st gen at one point, but then I got a little cocky, so I ended up lower on the ladder, but i'm still top 100 on that ladder.
In Random Battles, I managed to get over 1700 at one point, then my teams started getting bad matchup after bad matchup In OU, I've been very close to 1600, but I don't play that often, and hax brought me down to the mid-1400's. I've played a few other ladders, but only for a bit, so my ranking probably isn't much higher than the 1200's on some of them lol
The highest ladder rank I've ever gotten for PS! was #3 on Challenge Cup, where I laddered for 4 hours straight, battling 2-4 battles at a time. It definitely was a challenge getting there, but at the time it was around 1650 ELO, I think. Other records I have for myself are: OU - 1678 UU - ~1700 RU - 1500 NU - 1437 PU - ~1300 Randbats - ~1900 (40 game win streak) PokeBattle gave me a chance to get all the way to the top spot at #1 for a few hours, but I ended up getting #64 at the end of that season.
The best i ever got was 1701 on the ou ladder when greninja was still in the tier. i was so proud of myself but i lost the screenshot so im so sad
The highest I've ever gotten on the OU was 1681 with a Mega Tyranitar team about 1 month ago. Aside from that I've actually gotten to the mid-high 1500's on the RU ladder back when the Alomomola + Amoonguss core was legal, which doesn't necessarily look as impressive as the OU record but that score actually put me at number 19 on the RU ladder.
I think I got into the 1300's in doubles at one point, using only a mono dragon and a mono ghost. In Random Doubles I've also gotten into the 1300's if I remember correctly. I could probably get into the 1400's in OU, but I have a habit of Making low tier teams, and using them in OU for fun. OU is my favorite tier to battle in (monotype, doubles, and inverse are fun too), but PU, RU, and UU have some of my favorite to use. I'll edit this later if I check and I'm higher in anything.
