Since I don't go to too much tournaments can someone help with the percentage of the metagame please!!!!!!?!?!?!?!?

Like this....

Speedrill 25

Mommy Gengar etc.....

and in what division also.

Thanks
 
...That is pretty much impossible given how many tournaments there are, how it differs for each region, how everyone has their own figures and there are no official ones...
 
Every place is different so the second that I post what it is like in my area I will get jumped on by somebody saying "itz nawt liek dat"

But thats not going to stop me:
25% Flygon
25% Gengar
25% SP
5% Plox
5% Champ
5% Speedrill
10% Assorted Rogue
 
It also depends on your division. From what I've seen, Juniors is like all SP's with Beedrill and Machamp as well. Seniors is mostly Gengar, but there's SP's and Flygon as well. Masters is mostly SP's with a good mix of other stuff. However, there's obviously a lot of other decks out there in all the divisions.
 
I have to disagree with Celebi about the Masters division. At Nats, my dad, sister and her boyfriend all said that there division was chock full of Flygon and LuxApe. If you mean LuxApe by SP's then this post is semi pointless.
 
I mean like in your area or in your opinion not like where I live it doesn't matter I just want to know what is the metagame in your area, because I am going to grinders.

I also forgot to add like division wise.
,Thanks!!
 
Well if you are going to grinders heres a little info, people are looking to play a deck that can win 8 times consecutively and consistently, so there is a huge percentage of donk/speed decks as most people can make those go off 9/10 times giving them a better chance and lucksacking their way through. Speedrill is going to be big there from what I hear since it is rather consistent and should be able to go off for 8 or so rounds. Most SP decks are not the most consistent and are not able to go off as much as donk decks, something about playing a handful of Uxie/Mesprit/Azelf/Crobat with ten or so energies max hurts consistency, who knew?

Well Luxray and Infernape do have that big SP symbol on them. :p Also, based off of the Masters National Champion's report, it seems like there were also a lot of Palkia G decks. That also has that SP symbol lol. I also said it had a good mix of other stuff.

Also, Beedrill is a good deck. However, SP's are going to be very popular because they are very consistent. All I really need is a Cyrus and/or a Roseanne (excluding Palkia decks) and I'm essentially setup. I mean, Plox, Flygon, pretty much half the good decks run the same amount or more energy that SP's. SP's tend to have a pretty even matchup with Beedrill if it gets setup, which is very hard. Between Spray, Mesperit lock, Lost Cyclone, Bright Look, etc. games vs. SP's can get pretty hard. And that's where Speedrill starts to have problems. Aside from that, it overpowers pretty much everything except Gengar if they get somewhat lucky. However, it is possible to shut Gengar off if you like run 3 Unown G. :p Although that isn't a good idea imo. I think the best plays are:
Flygon
Luxape
Palkia
Beedrill

I think those will probably be the most popular decks as well, though we'll see a lot of Gengar in Seniors and Machamp in Juniors. Good luck at the grinder!
