Welcome to the third and final seasonal tournament of the 2018 Ubers Tournament Circuit, the third edition of the Ubers Fall Seasonal! This seasonal, like other tournaments that compose this year's circuit, will award points towards a general Ubers leaderboard which will ultimately award the 2018 Ubers Ribbon (if you have any doubts over the ribbon system, check out this thread)!

SPECIFIC RULES
  • This is a standard USM Ubers tournament
  • Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown!, preferably on the smogtours server.
  • This tournament will be Double Elimination.
  • All rounds will be Best of Three. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
  • To encourage the development of the metagame, and so that everyone is on an even playing field, all matches must have replays recorded. If neither player posts replays of the match, both players will suffer an automatic game loss. (If you were in losers' when you played, you are both out. If you were in winners', the winner is in losers' and the loser is out.) There may be some exceptions to this rule.
  • Every round, I may choose several games as the Highlight Matches.
  • Any eventual tier changes will only take effect in the following round.
Standard Rules and Clauses
  • Species Clause: A player cannot have two Pokemon with the same PokeDex number on his team.
  • Evasion Clause: The moves Double Team and Minimize are banned. (No other evasion boosting things are banned).
  • OHKO Clause: The moves Horn Drill, Guillotine, Sheer Cold, and Fissure are banned.
  • Endless Battle Clause: Anything capable of intentionally creating an endless battle is banned.
  • Moody Clause
  • Sleep Clause
  • SleepTrap Clause: A Pokemon cannot use a move that can inflict sleep status on the opponent if it has the ability Shadow Tag.
  • Rayquaza is not permitted to Mega Evolve.
  • The move Baton Pass is banned.

You are expected to know and follow all general tournament rules.
VMs are the only thing that matters for activity. Use this guide to ensure you don't lose via activity or coinflip.

Grand Finals

Pohjis vs Mysterious M


1 | 2 | 3

Pohjis has to win one set, while Mysterious M has to win both sets to win.

Posting replays is compulsory (and tagging @matches in the Ubers Discord whenever the series begins would be appreciated). Keep in mind that while there is a tentative deadline (Sunday, November 25th), I will be somewhat lenient when it comes to this series. Nonetheless, I will need to enforce a hard deadline if this takes too long to get done.

Good luck to both players!​

after three and half years of playing this game somewhat seriously, i have finally won a major ubers tournament. obviously ubers open is the most prestigious tournament for any lower tier but winning that tournament is clearly not possible so this is the second best thing you can achieve in a lower tier. this achievement does feel rewarding after putting all the effort and performing well with dropping one game in the entire tournament. feel free to check all my games from here.

since these days it is very hard to trust anyone in ubers for it's own reasons, i have pretty much gone my own route the last months. however, there are two people i want to specifically shout-out. Cynara has helped me the last few months with everything possible and i couldn't be more grateful to her for all the effort she has done for me. you had a rocky start in snake but you recoved back to an even record. i hope to see you in future team trophy tournaments whether ubers is in or not. Mana is the guy who i will always rely on everything; doesn't matter what the tier is, he will always have an answer for everything. one of my best buddies on this site and i hope to prove in the future that whack shit in my hands will pull miracles.

biggest shout-out to defiant durians and mainly Gunner Rohan for pushing me to manage this year since otherwise i probably wouldn't have played usm at all after spl ended this year. it took a while to get a grip on usm ubers but it clicked after ubers premier league and after that it has been a blessing to play this meta. it is very unfortunate that the recent events have put the final nail in the coffing when the problem definitely is not the meta itself. the outcome was very expected but at the same time very upsetting. maybe there is hope in the future.

thank you dream for hosting and i will catch you in playoffs and future tournaments.
