It's Prime Time
Courtesy of our good friend nui, the Ubers room on Pokemon Showdown! is running a week-long event to celebrate the multiple generations and metagames of Ubers. As part of that, we'll be hosting a series of room tournaments between Monday, February 25th and Sunday, March 3rd which will reward the 3 best placed players overall at the end of everything with US$15, US$10 and US$5 gift cards respectively, as a small incentive.
We'll be running 2 daily single elimination live room tournaments, the first at 4PM GMT+0 and the second at 11PM GMT+0, in the Ubers PS! Room, so don't miss out! You are able to join both tournaments in one day, but you will only gain points for the tournament in which you gained the most points. For example, if you join the first tour and get 3rd place but you join the second tour and get 1st place, then you will only get points for your earnings in the second tournament. Talking about points, the Ubers RoomStaff (% @ and #) will be entirely responsible for starting the tournaments as well as collecting the points, with the points system being explained as:
In terms of when each tournament will take place, please refer to the following schedule so that you don't miss any of your favourite metagames. To join the tournaments, just make sure you're in the Ubers PS Room at these specific times:

These metas are not officially supported by PS and thus require the host to manually edit these specifications in*
- Standard live tour/room tournament rules apply (in terms of no ties, etc).
- Each generation's clauses and rules are automatically enforced by the standard formats, except for XY and DPP w/ Arceus, which will be modified to such specifications by the host.
- Players will have 5 minutes to join the tournament (starting from the scheduled time).
- The "auto-dq" timer will be set at 3 minutes per round, meaning each player has 3 minutes to either issue or accept their opponent's challenge.
- Scouting is allowed and players are encouraged to switch teams between rounds.
- Forcetimer must be enabled, meaning the timer will be running during all times.
To begin the tournament, make sure you wait for the scheduled time (either 4PM GMT+0 or 11PM GMT +0 depending on when you're hosting). When that time comes, simply type
