Ninetales Fire · Great League
📊 Real pick rate (last 30 days) 3%
GBL Note Analysis Basis: PvPoke simulation · last-30-day field meta · S27 New Beginnings
✔ Strengths & how to use Its Lead · Switch role scores are all high, so it isn't tied to one slot and can flex across positions. It posts favorable results against current field-meta staples Tinkaton(#2), giving it real value as a meta counter. On defense it resists Fire · Grass · Ice · Bug · Steel · Fairy, holding up well against those attackers. ⚠ Weaknesses & threats On defense it is weak to Water · Ground · Rock, so watch out for those attackers. It's notably unfavored into Guzzlord (usage rank #18), common right now, so dodging that matchup is safer in the current meta. GBL Note verdict At a 3% real pick rate, it's a niche sighting in Great League. Ranked #12 on paper but #27 by real usage — picked less than its rating suggests.
