Notes on top 300 BSTs

Currently top 300 BSTs end with Floatzel's 495. After 9 Pokémon introduced with BST above that, the end will be at 497.

Most likely however by next gen the end will be at 500.

Previous end points are:

Gen 4(Top 200): 460
Gen 5(Top 200): 490, 
Gen 6: 485, Top 200: 515
Gen 7: 495, Top 200: 525

So going by this idea:

Gen 8: 500, Top 200: 530
Gen 9: 505, Top 200: 535
Gen 10: 510, Top 200: 540
Gen 11: 515, Top 200: 545
Gen 12: 520, Top 200: 550
Gen 13: 535, Top 200: 555
Gen 14: 540, Top 200: 560
Gen 15: 545, Top 200: 565
Gen 16: 550, Top 200: 570

Notes on average stats for types

-Bug: Bug is statistically the worst type, being the worst in total stats, HP, and quite low in other stats. It's highest rankings come from Speed(12th) and Defense(12th), though fully evolved Bug-types tend to be heavily offense oriented(11th).

-Poison: Poison is the second worst type statistically. Its lowest stats are HP, Attack and Defense. Its best stat in comparison to other types is Speed.

-Normal: Normal is statistically the third worst type(second worst fully evolved), being the worst in Defense, Special Defense and Special Attack. It excels in HP and Speed, however.

-Grass: Grass is the fourth weakest type statistically. Its worst stat is Speed. Its Attack and Defense are its only better stats compared to other types.

notes on stat retcons

So far, two of the recent generations have buffed stats of existing Pokémon.

Gen 6 buffed stats of Pokémon that evolve at third stage by +10, except for Pikachu who got +20. About 29 Pokémon were buffed this way.

Gen 7 buffed stats of Pokémon that evolve at second stage and some single stage Pokémon and Woobat in a range of 10 to 40. HP was also buffed. About 26 Pokémon were buffed this way.

If this continues, assuming 20 buffs for each generation, by Gen 15, all Pokémon introduced since Gen 1 to 7 will have become buffed, in theory anyways(in practice, there will be stuff that remain).

Nonetheless a scenario like this one can be presented:

Gen 8: Buffing single stage Pokémon and some others.
Gen 9: Buffing middle stage Pokémon and some others.
Gen 10: Buffing first stage Pokémon and some others.
Gen 11: Buffing babies and some others.
Gen 12: Buffing weakest ones and some others.
Gen 13: Buffing some mascot legendaries and some others.
Gen 14: Buffing some minor legendaries and some others.
Gen 15: Buffing some Mega Evolving Pokémon and some others.
Gen 16: Buffing some Pokémon that have special gimmicks and others.
Gen 17: Buffing some former fully evolved Pokémon and others.
Gen 19: Return to third stages with higher BST upgrade.
Gen 20: Return to second stages with higher BST upgrade.
Gen 21: Repeat Gen 8 onwards with higher BST upgrade.
