[The Immortal]

nominating Hidden Type Ubers since Hidden Type seems to be stale and might as well try switching the format to Ubers for a month

(fyi regular Hidden Type can't be nominated as well)

 

[Uselesscrab]

nominating Hidden Type Ubers since Hidden Type seems to be stale and might as well try switching the format to Ubers for a month

(fyi regular Hidden Type can't be nominated as well)

Can this be done with any metagame?

 

[Akashi]

nominating HAXMONS UBERS!

 

[The Immortal]

Can this be done with any metagame?

The owner of a metagame can choose to switch to Ubers for a month. A third person shouldn't do it without their permission. The regular and Ubers follow the same blacklist though, and you can't nom the regular together with the Ubers.

(And obviously it has to make sense / exist; you can't have Gods and Followers Ubers, for example...)
