Sniper FAQ
All-time, whole corpusIs Sniper good in Pokémon Champions VGC?

Which Pokémon run Sniper the most?
Inteleon, Beedrill and Barbaracle are the top species carrying it, by teams. The win rate beside each one is that species' own record, not this ability's.
Is Sniper spread across the metagame, or concentrated on a few Pokémon?
Concentrated: Inteleon alone carries 45.88% of the 170 teams running Sniper, and its top three species together account for 94.12%.
How reliable is Sniper's win rate?
The 43.90% figure is a posterior mean, not a raw average; the interval behind it is 42.29%–45.51%, from 1,420 games. That is a wide band, which means the true rate could sit anywhere in it. Treat the point figure as a rough read, not a precise one.
Where do these numbers come from?
Tournament decklists and real match records for Pokémon Champions, ingested from Limitless, Victory Road and the official circuit. These figures are all-time over the whole corpus, not scoped to a format or window the way the boards above the search bar are. Win rates are shrunk toward the field average rather than printed raw, so a thin sample cannot top a board.
