We show that in the family of degree $d\geq 2$ rational maps of the Riemann sphere, the closure of strictly postcritically finite maps contains a (relatively) Baire generic subset of maps displaying maximal non-statistical behavior: for a map $f$ in this generic subset, the set of accumulation points of the sequence of empirical measures of almost every point in the phase space is the largest possible one that is, the set of all $f$-invariant measures. The proofs is based on a transversality argument which allows us to control the behavior of the orbits of critical points for maps close to strictly postcritically finite rational maps and also a new concept developed in the author's PhD thesis, that we call statistical bifurcation.
