Pokemon what does uu mean

They may also issue bans on certain combinations of these, such as a party having two particular moves at the same time, although this is considerably more rare. Playing without any restrictions or only very specific rules such as the "Endless Battle Clause" is typically referred to as "Anything Goes". Battle simulators typically offer tier-based formats by default, automatically enforcing the restrictions associated with them.

To play with these formats in the games themselves, both players need to agree to the rules in advance, as in-game rule-creation options typically do not offer enough granular control over the rules to support these formats. Due to both the difficulty of enforcing these rules in-game and the availability of usage data, tier lists are usually based on usage within battle simulators. And for those who wants to trow the rules out the windows, allow me to introduce you the the OM, or Other Metagames.

These things are what could be called organized chaos. It uses the fact that Showdown! You wan them to have new abilities?

Good, go play a game of Almost Any Abilities! New movepool? Try out STABmon. New types, why not Camomons, where the type is based on the type of your first two attacks! Triple types? That exists in Hidden Type where your Hidden Power become a third type. Nearly every tier follows the Smogon-wide clauses. They change between most generations, Gen 7 having different from Gen 8 for example. Most tiers are affected by them, AG being notable for not following them.

As I said, every tiers have different rules, but the Smogon-wide clauses are very frequent. I thought that mega ray could easily be countered by ice? Delta stream nullifiys flying weakness, so ray is 2x weak to ice.

Also, those sets are pretty gimmicky and can easily be bypassed by SR, or any chip for that matter. Pretty sure you meant focus sash. With base speed, it limits the ice types that could come in it.

So it has a single Ice weakness. If you meant Focus Sash, then say hello to Stealth Rock! The most used attack in the game! It does damage upon entering so goodbye Focus Sash! And, oh no! Generally speaking, Borderline doesn't have a true battling Metagame, rather its where 'Underused standards' are placed.

Generally their power is unbalancing, and if they were allowed in standard play they would over-centralise teams and limit the Metagame. Jirachi and Shaymin are limited by their shallow and predictable move pools whilst Celebi is limited by a horrible typing.

The Lati Twins on the other hand have fantastic typing, a good trait and a great move pool, whilst Mew and Deoxys have unquestioned versatility and fantastic offensive or defensive prowess.

Manaphy, despite having a fairly shallow move-pool, is near unstoppable with a Tail Glow under its belt. A lot of people also question why Wobbuffet is on this list.

Maybe you favor dragons. Most found in competitive play are found in the Uber or OverUsed tiers. Competitive matches flow differently than other battles, with lots of switch outs and defensive setups and what have you. Building a team is tough, but there are tons of people out there willing to help. Choosing the composition of your team is only one part of the battle.
