Under-Used, commonly referred to as "'''UU'''", designates Pokémon whose use is limited as they are not strong enough for general OU competition, usually due to sub-standard stats, movepools, easily exploitable weaknesses, or the existence of a stronger Pokémon that works in a highly similar way. For example, {{p|Mismagius}} is often classed as UU because {{p|Rotom}}'s [[form differences#Rotom|alternate forms]] possess higher defensive stats, a better movepool and a type combination that has 3 more resistances while having {{a|Levitate|no extra weaknesses}}. UU Pokémon can be, and are, used in OU battles, but are usually underpowered here.
