Is Charge Beam spread across the metagame, or concentrated on a few Pokémon?

Concentrated: Farigiraf alone carries 40.00% of the 70 teams running Charge Beam, and its top three species together account for 62.86%.

How reliable is Charge Beam's win rate?

The 45.72% figure is a posterior mean, not a raw average; the interval behind it is 43.88%–47.56%, from 492 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.
