Thank you all for participating so far! That was a wonderful display of insanit- you metal stability. We are so close to creating the- healing the mind from all it's many wounds throughout playing Ubers.

Speaking of which, gardening is quite relaxing, the process of nurturing a fragile little seedling to full bloom. Well, we do have quite the harvest with so many diligent gardeners around, and we have to use it up somehow, right?

BW Ubers
The only allowed held items are Berries. A maximum of 3 Pokemon can hold Sitrus or Lum Berries
Arceus cannot use Extreme Speed


Sadly, we had many droughts recently. A good gardener must know which of their plants need how much water to prosper

Every Pokemon is Level 80
You have 70 level to freely distribute among your Pokemon


- The maximum of 3 Pokemon thing means that of 6 Pokemon in your team only up to 3 can hold either a Lum or Sitrus berry
For example, you could have 3 Lum berries but no Sitrus berries or 2 Sitrus berries and 1 Lum berry and so on. Ofc you can also use less than this
Your Pokemon may also hold no item
- Giratina Origin is unavailable because it can only hold the Griseous Orb, same goes for other Arceus formes
- The level thing means you can add up to 70 level to your pokemon. For example, you give Pokemon A 20 level so it is now level 100 and you only have 50 level left to
distribute among your other Pokemon. You ofc don't have to distribute all available level if you see some advantage in doing that
- All your Pokemon must be between level 80 and 100
- Though there are level up moves, Heartscales allow you to learn level up moves from beyond your current level too before Gen 8. It would have been an interesting
angle to forbid them but going through Serebii to check all the level up moves would be tedious in building and is hard to verify by the opponent. There are also
exclusive or early level up moves for certain pre-evolutions as well as different learn sets in previous generations or some moves being available through breeding and I think no one wants to deal with this whole mess. If your builder says it's okay then it is

There is a lot to use here. I mainly hope to see some interesting use of Natural Gift as the distribution among viable Pokemon is really high here. Pluck, Thief and Unnerve might also be interesting, with trick also now beeing easier to utilize. And of course you can't forget Tea Time. If your opponent hacks Sinistea into Gen 5 to make it happen, that would be quite the scary strategy. There are a ton of interesting options opening up and some other avenues like speed control through scarfs closing. I'm curious what strategies you will come up with, Either way, I'm sure it won't look like regular BW Ubers. Remember, only the craziest-... most sane can prevail

Contacted Mashing on Monday and she hasn’t responded at all. Sorry but I'm not flexible enough to change my weekend plans on a dime, calling act.

Ubers Mental Assylum Round 3​




You have come so far in your spiral recovery process! Now it is only a few more steps until you are fully healed...

There always so much around us, so much to do, so many stimuli. The best thing to do at times like these is to take a step back, calm your mind and limit your options

USUM Ubers
You can only use 3 attacks on every Pokemon
Ultranecrozium Z , Red Orb and Blue Orb are banned

You have to use at least one Pokemon that is unranked on the
Viability Ranking on every team

If you win with one less Pokemon than your opponent, you get two wins


- You may teach all of your Pokemon 4 Attacks but can only ever use up to 3 of them. You can use the 3 Attacks you have chosen as often as you'd like. If a fourth attack is used for whatever reason, you lose the game. An attack means both offensive attacks as well as status attacks
- Z Moves also count as an attack. You can only use two other attacks if you click your Z-Move
- Ditto can also only use 3 attacks across transformations. If you copy lets say Ho-Oh Brave Bird, there are only two other attacks you can use. If you use something like Toxic which is on multiple Pokemon, that only counts as one attack
- If you bring 5 Pokemon and you opponent brings 6, you get two wins instead of one if you win the game. If however both player bring 5 it is still just one win
- D-Rank Pokemon do not count as unranked. Unranked means they are not listed on the viability ranking
- Bringing less than 6 Pokemon does not exempt the rule of having to bring an unranked Pokemon. If you have 5 Pokemon on your team, one of them still has to be unranked

You can ofc try to just bring a regular USUM team with a few tweaks, but will this really work if your opponent is prepared for the format? I wonder, will offense be the strongest because all tanks can't work with too few attacks, or will stall beat offense with ease because there is less coverage? Looking forward to what you invent

I'm really sorry for posting so late, I had a lot to do and still have. I hope you still have enough time to prepare and schedule for the games

Ubers Mental Assylum Round 4​




You have come so far in your spiral recovery process! Now it is only a few more steps until you are fully healed...

Everyone and everything wants to be special nowadays, at any cost. Don't you think that's unhealthy? Don't you want to just go back to the good old days when everything was edge less and homogeneous?

ORAS Ubers Bo5
Every Pokemon on your team must use the same Item
If you chose Life Orb, you can only use 5 Pokemon

If you manage to remove 3 of your opponents Items by Knock Off, Trick, Thief or the like, you win the game instantly

You get 2 wins instead of 1 if you win while the EVs add up to 192 (48 * 4) on every Pokemon

1759182258432.png


- A consumed item does not count as removed. If you trigger a lum berry by using Toxic, it isn't removed but if you destroy it via Pluck or Incinerate, it is counted as removed.
- If you consume your own items through Power Herb Geomancy, Fling Focus Band or Sticky Barb transfer, it does not count as removed.
- A Pokemon that already had its item removed does not count a second time. If you trick a scarf but then trick items back next turn or give it a second scarf, it will not count. It only ever counts the first time per Pokemon
- Magic Room and Embargo do not count as removal. Also, if you remove an item while the effect of Embargo or Magic Room are active, it counts normally as it would if those were not active
- It does not count if the item can't be removed. If you Knock Off a Bugceus, it's item isn't removed. But if you do knock the insect plate off the Rayquaza on the same team it does
- Removing recycled or harvested berries counts normally
- A popped air baloon does not count as removed. If you trick it however, it does
- An item stolen with the Pickpocket or Magician Ability does count as removed
- The Item Destruction and EV alternate win conditions can be combined. If you Switcheroo 3 of your opponents Pokemon with only 192 EVs present, you win the game instantly and get two wins
- If you find any more edge cases, I will be mad


Go ahead and bring that PDon, only downisde is that you'll have 5 useless items on the rest of your team. I hope to see something fun here, like full Choice Band or something like that. Lets see what strategies you come up with. And make sure to !showteam at the end of the game so that any unserious business is unveiled
