"A look at the Generation 5 Raid Meta Impacts (With a focus on Draft)"

#PokemonGO: Gen 5 has been discussed here and there already but I wanted to take some time to highlight the levels at which Gen 5 will impact the raid meta and more interestingly, the raid draft meta.  Draft, unlike normal raiding, requires players to explore beyond the top 3-6 spots in the DPS charts.  Often times, drafts will cover the top 10 and sometimes as far as the top 20-30 depending on how much one expects to need a specfic type of attacker.  I decided to make some charts that incorporate the new Gen 5 pokemon (Bolded) to showcase how much could change.Methodology:I employed the use of gamepress's DPS/TDO chart and their custom mods to display future pokemon and possible moves.  For each type chart, I matched the attackers vs expected/past legendaries or common raid bosses.  I tried to make one of the bosses double weak to the type in question and the other raid boss single weak.  When choosing what to include per chart, I opted to only use Pokemon with a charge move that matched the typing (sorry Bite Salamence) and in regards to the Gen 5 Pokemon, I only went with STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) moves.  There are a few exceptions to this but only in instances where the majority of naturally learned moves in the main games fit the non-STAB type (ex: Klinklang as an electric attacker).  Base sorting for the tables may look a little off at first and that is due to the fact that I sorted them based on a weighted average between the two displayed DPS charts but did not include that average as it is not truely meaningful numbers, just a good way to account for fast moves that do not fit the type. For those on the desktop version, you should be able to sort by column of choice by clicking the header. (May need RES, not sure)Since all of the numbers are in the form of DPS (Damage per Second), here is a heplful chart to remember what these might translate to as far as time to win.TierDPS to SoloDPS

attack but has much higher defenses and gains psychic as a secondary typing.  Simisear (and the other elemental monkeys) can learn the signature starter moves (Blast Burn, etc.) however I did not use those moves for these charts as we do not know how likely that is to occur.RockPokemon      Fast Move         Charge Move   Moltres:DPS    TDO    DPS3 *TDOReshiram:DPS    TDO   DPS3 *TDORampardos
