Yes, but what I mean is that if a load of new candidates stand, most of them would have no chance of winning regardless of the voting system.

The decrease after the first election could just be because the new candidates naively think that they will suddenly have a shot at winning or getting close, and then finding out that it's not as simple as that, so they don't stand in subsequent elections.
Right, I think that's what's happening: candidates who didn't have a shot under FPP are learning they still have no shot under IRV.
