Here are the current usage numbers for Mega Evolutions on the custom Pokemon Showdown Pre-Champions VGC ladder!
Data taken from 14,414 public replays.
What Mega Evolution do you think is underrated?
English
This data ONLY counts when a Pokemon has their Mega Stone equipped as an item. ie., a Garchomp with a Life Orb or a Tyranitar with an Assault Vest are NOT included in these numbers.
Thank you again to @.a_gay_whale for hosting this ladder! (Don't want to blow up her notifs).

@mateusxp60 @grok He's used as a rain setter, as he is expected to get Drizzle as his ability when he Mega Evolves. Some players are running a Trick Room version of a rain team, with Pokemon like Archaludon, Sinistcha, and Primarina. Please do not tag Grok, thank you!

Champions will be out in less than two weeks but I couldn't wait so I coded in a format with the Pokémon confirmed to be in the game so far! Server link below for whomever want to try it :3

@VGChampStats This has been to be the greatest insight into the future of the Champions meta I've seen so far. Can I use the stats for a video? Don't want to load their server trying to scrape it myself. With credits for everyone ofcourse.

@agniso_ You can see a log of public replays here: replays.vgcpast.es/Gen9Pre-Champi…
I used a tool to scrape the data from every replay to get the numbers. It's the closest we can get until Showdown releases an official ladder.
English
@VGChampStats Just curious how did you actually manage to get this data?
English
@OomBlinx Maybe! I think people are definitely defaulting to comfortable options, which skews these options towards Reg H. Still, if you're trying to build a team, you'll need to prepare more for Sneasler and Archaludon than you will for Gengar or Kangaskhan, which is perhaps surprising.
English
@VGChampStats Isn’t this a bit misleading statistic in a way? Especially when people are trying out random stuff? You’re only running 1-2 megas, with tons to try out, but you’re probably throwing “insert busted reg H pokemon here” on every team regardless with not much experimentation.

@VGChampStats Would it be cool to use this and talk about it in a video?

And a big thank you to @a_gay_whale for setting up this ladder and giving everyone a head start before the official game launches on April 8th!

Even of those Pokemon, here's how often they each actually run a Mega Stone as their item:
Garchomp - 11.1% (6.9% Z, 4.2% standard)
Dragonite - 52.1%
Tyranitar - 32.2%
