Aqua Ring
Usage, win rate and the Pokémon that run it in Pokémon Champions VGC, from tournament data.
Usage is the share of teams carrying this move, not the share of Pokémon. The win rate is the posterior mean under a fitted prior, so a thinly played option is pulled toward the field average rather than reported at its raw rate. How these are measured. Every figure here is all-time over the whole corpus; the board this sits under follows the format and window pickers, so its numbers will differ.

Which Pokémon run Aqua Ring the most?
Milotic, Araquanid and Azumarill are the top species carrying it, by teams. The win rate beside each one is that species' own record, not this move's.
Is Aqua Ring spread across the metagame, or concentrated on a few Pokémon?
Concentrated: Milotic alone carries 45.00% of the 20 teams running Aqua Ring, and its top three species together account for 85.00%.
How reliable is Aqua Ring's win rate?
The 46.92% figure is a posterior mean, not a raw average; the interval behind it is 44.19%–49.65%, from 101 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.
