Why do the ranking keep changing? Nearly every time I click on the link it gives me something different.

Gamepress must be doing lots of battle simulations, that's the only thing I can think of. I am glad that they have included ratings for all possible move sets.

Do you think the order of the "A" ranked movesets is important (is DT/O "best")? My favorite Dragonite has DB/O.

As long as DT/O is A on offense & defense, I'm happy.

I simply ignore those ranking now. I would rather listen to what the community get to share, such as real game experiences.
Simulations are just simulations. They still miss a lot. One of the most important is human-factor.
How many battles have GP researchers actually play? I figure that most of their time is spent on maintaining the website and running even more simulations. So stop caring what ranking your favorite move set is. DB/DC is rated A or A- or B, so what? It won't affect how it actually performs. Just try it out as you like. Bound by no such constraints.

We are actually in the process of updating Pokemon pages, which includes revising moveset grades.

Often times, the person who writes the moveset explanations is different from the person who does the moveset grades, and we have to go back to make sure they agree. The one thing you can count on not changing are the movesets recommended in the tier list.
