How rankings work
Results cover the 2026 calendar year. Paper data uses approved Standard tournament decklists; online data uses completed Standard events on Pokémon TCG Live, including results whose decklists are unavailable.
A win earns 8 placement points, second place 6, top 4 earns 4, top 8 earns 2, top 16 earns 1.5, top 32 earns 1, and other finishes earn 0.5. Each variant's share of points becomes its performance score. The combined ranking averages the two sources equally; if only one source has ranked results, it supplies the full score.
Usage shares describe how often a variant appears, while tournament wins count first-place finishes. Online match win rates use completed non-mirror pairings, with ties included in the match total. Rankings refresh as new results are imported or approved.
