Introduction(written by yohoE, will be used for next 13 iterations as well. i also added 4 words)

Welcome all to the 5th edition of the Most UBER Tournament Ever, also known as MUTE. This tournament will be hosted by SparksBlade, with major contributions from Arii Stella, Dominatio, Hack, Lacus Clyne, and WreckDra.

Ubers is a tier where only the manliest, most based Pokemon reside. Pokemon such as the behemoth, Primal-Groudon; Pokemon like the bloodcurdling Mega-Salamence. You see, there are no counters in Ubers, and there are close to no safe switch-ins. In Ubers, you always have to assess your situation; you always have to think about which Pokemon you don't need, and which Pokemon will bring you the win. This Tier is as fast-paced as they come; this Tier is as team-reliant as it comes. As stated in former MUTE Tournaments, our Tier, sadly, is not getting the attention and love it deserves. In the words of the great Furai, it's time to give Ubers the love it deserves. We will be rekindling arguably the best Ubers tournament ever created, hosted originally by some of the all-time Ubers greats such as Bojangles, Hugendugen, Zephyr, Furai, Firemage, and Fireburn (and me last year!): THE MOST UBER TOURNAMENT EVER!


General Tournament Rules
  • General tournament rules and regulations can be found here
  • Standard SM Ubers
  • Single Elimination
  • Matches should be conducted on Pokemon Showdown! You may play on Pokemon Online if both players agree to do so.
  • Save replays of your games in case of discrepancies!

Special Rules:
  • This will be a team tournament akin to Team Trials. There will be teams of 5. We will have 24 teams, chosen on a first-come, first-serve basis.
    • Sign up as a team
    • Everybody on the team must confirm
    • Come up with an awesome name
    • For those who do not have a team, I will be keeping a list of “free agents” so go ahead and express interest! I will not be making teams though, so it is your responsibility to seek out other free agents.
    • IMPORTANT: When you sign up as a team, each member will be randomly assigned to be in a Division (A-E are possibilities). When teams play each other, people will play the corresponding player in their division. The restrictions will be given by division as well. YOU MAY NOT CHANGE DIVISIONS.
  • Every round, each division will be given a teambuilding restriction. You obviously must follow this.
  • Yes, this means you are building a new team every round. I still expect people to adhere to strict deadlines.
  • Build your teams with your team!
  • YOU ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE FUN
  • and hate fireburn
The Restrictions
Group A: At least 4 Pokemon in your team must have a Choiced item (Choice Band, Choice Scarf, Choice Specs)

Group B: Both players ban a Pokemon while scheduling. The player on the left side bans first.
Sparks vs Blade - while scheduling, Sparks will ban a Pokemon first(say Xerneas), and then Blade bans a Pokemon(say Marshadow). Now both build a team knowing Xerneas and Marshadow are banned.

Group C: Spikes are the only entry hazard allowed, and the abilities Regenerator and Multiscale are banned. If you set any other hazard, you forfeit the game. If any of your Pokemon have the two banned abilities, you forfeit the game.

Group D: All Fairy-types are banned, including Arceus-Fairy.

Group E: All 6 Pokemon in your team must be from a different generation.

How about your guy replies to a vm before you try to cheese something silly (hint: he never did during the entire week)? If u dont want a call against you why dont you tell him to fucking schedule properly?
 
Maybe because he can't connect all the time on forums and Im the leader of the team???
seriously I didn't want this happen, All I want is all games played and done.
Anyways, not continuing this, take the act, hope ur team win, not fighting a friend for this shit.

Kebabe was online and on PS on his main account(in the Ubers room) at the scheduled time, while EG Tamalin wasn't (at least) in the Ubers room, or on his main. Kebabe already had a strong case for activity, but still he tried to play and was online at his given time without ever getting any word from his actual opponent. He waited on PS(I talked to him), and after about 30 or so minutes he made the activity post. You say EG Tamalin went online 15 minutes after scheduled time, but there's no proof for that, and Kebabe stayed for about 25 minutes too(his post was 20 minutes after scheduled time) so that doesn't add up. Even your post is about 50 minutes after Kebabe's post, even though apparently both you and EG Tamalin were online and aware?

I posted 50mins after his post, because I noticed he already posted activity and came here to tell what happened, but its ok, It's part of the past now, gl to their team.

Edgar brought up Mega Salamence and Double Edge for Group E.

On PS, after Mega Evolving Salamence, Normal-type moves are shown as Flying-type moves due to Aerilate. Accordingly, the 1.5x multiplier for STAB is also taken into account in damage calcs. Thus, Double Edge(and all other similar physical Normal-type attacking moves) count as STAB for Mega Salamence and are not allowed in Group E as the 6th mon.

Thanks to Edgar for pointing this out, realised I didn't address this even last year~
i suxes sorry

I know one game has already been played but I think I should address this anyway, Group E is actually bogus and I think it should be modified/changed altogether.

As this replay shows, my opponent and I brought some sort of stall with anti stall techs, if it wasn't for the a TD allowing us to rematch (Thanks Quite Quiet!), the battle would have been unbearably long and we both didn't have time for that. You may be asking yourselves the following q: "But Edgar, didn't you trap the Ferro with Gar, isn't that progress??" Well yes and no, while trapping Ferro does mean one less mon to worry about, it was not my main interest of the battle, to win I needed to get rid of Giratina and for my opponent to win he needed to PP stall every single one of my mons, I wasn't going to allow Giratina to take away 2 of my PP with Pressure and he was not going to allow me to get hazards up as he needed Giratina to win. My point is, if the battle kept going we would have had to keep switching until one of us fucked up.

As I think it shows that my opponent and I thought an "anti-stall" stall was the best strategy for this format there is no doubt we might bring similar teams the next match and thus being in the same scenario if the format is not modified or changed altogether. Thanks.

Group E will be changed to:

All 6 Pokemon in your team must be from a different generation.

I talked to Quite Quiet about Osh vs ict, and in the end decided that since both Osh and ict were following the same, and now changed restriction, they were on equal grounds and thus ict won fair. ict will be allowed to keep his win, but if he wishes he can agree to a rematch.

Sorry for all the trouble.

Tagging the players in Group E so they read this: blunder The Trap God Edgar MiyoKa you all will be allowed to finish your games till Wednesday (23rd)
