About Slush Rush across competitive formats
This page is the cross-format home for Slush Rush : rather than a single tier, it rolls up everywhere Slush Rush sees competitive play, from the Smogon singles ladders to Doubles OU and the live VGC regulations. The format tabs above jump straight to any of them, while this view answers the bigger question first : which metagames Slush Rush actually matters in, and how heavily it is leaned on in each.
Open a format and you get the full breakdown : the Pokémon that run Slush Rush and how often, the moves, items and abilities it pairs with, the EV spreads and sets built around it, and a month-over-month usage trend. Because the meta never sits still, Slush Rush can be a staple in one format and a niche pick in another, so the per-format split is where the real story lives, not a single blended number.
Every figure is derived from Smogon's public monthly usage statistics, built from millions of rated Pokémon Showdown battles and refreshed as soon as a new snapshot lands, no editorial picks, no curation, just what high-rated players are running right now. The data is free, needs no account, and is also available through Pokékipe's public read API for analysts and team-builders.
