Ubers....

Mudkipchan

Just needs a guitar.
I am proving to a friend why ubers really shouldn't be used. I mean.. some of them look cool, and strong and completes a space in the pokedex... but....

I don't really know how to prove it. So I'm asking for help here.

I'm sure some of you understand, right?

I don't see any problem with using ubers. If you can't beat ubers, that's your problem. I've seen Mewtwos beaten by the oddest choices. Then again, said Mewtwo trainer wasn't that good.

Maybe I should start over.
Reasons ubers shouldn't be used:
1) Above-average stats
2) Not everyone knows how to beat them.

Reasons why they should be used:
1) To make weaker trainers strive to become better.
2) They're just freaking awesome.

Really, you use ubers or you don't. It's really nobody's business but the trainer's what pokemon they use.

Why do you think ubers are called "ubers"?
They're the uberness, that's why! On a more serious note, I see absolutely nothing wrong with ubers. If you're friends uses ubers, you just go right back and use them to. The uber metagame is my favorite, so I find it quite annoying when people complain about their friends using ubers, just becuz they are "unfair". They are not unfair, you probably just need to use an uber of your own. The ubers that were unfair were Mewtwo and Mew, and that was back in the RBY days.

For me I prefer Uber Pokemon to be a last resort, that's why I made 3 different teams without Ubers in them. Even though I just started them they could take down Ubers.
 
If you like ubers then use them if you dont donty use them...
Simpel as that

Well if you really want proof... try me

I tried to challenge myself make a "Perfect" Uber Team then beat a Team of my Favorite pokemon

-Kyroge
-Groudon
-Raquaza
- Ho-oh
- Latios
- Mewtwo

vs

- Typhlosion
- Blastoise
- Steelix
- Dragonite
- Scizor
- Tyranitar

Guess who won... not the Ubers my Team of Favorites
They all were lvl 100, best moves I could get.

But still your friend has a choice and an opinion, If he wants Ubers good for him, Just beat him with normal pokemon that you have and he mgiht change his mind.

But there really isn't anything wrong with them... it just says you favor them over other pokemon... it doesn't prove you're weak or not I sometimes use a team of Ubers just to do something fast.

Ubers are to be played in an uber metagame, where everyone uses ubers and strategically try to defeat the other. Ubers are far too strong for the other metagames

Personally I like games where one uber/legend is allowed per trained, kind of like your own personal mascot to use in the end. For me the only reason I don't like to say let the ubers fly is because some people (not all) take it as a sign that ONLY ubers should be used and then you get everyone with the exact same team. Sometimes you get people who pick and choose ubers to be combined with many others to make a truly frightening team and those I'll admit are a blast to play against. however too often all I see is Mewtwo, Lugia, Ho-oh, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayqueza. (My only uber trained passed its initial level is Mewtwo, just because I think he's awesome.)

personally, I think ubers should only be used in the game just to get through the E4+ Champion for quick money. That's one of the biggest ways to get dead rich in the game, espically if you have an amulet coin or two.

For battling, I say no ubers unless both sides have at least one (meaning in a player vs player match, the computer provides no challenge). My reasons:

1. too powerful, a level-80+ uber can take out an entire team of level 100's easily (trust me, if a level 80 non-uber can take out an entire team of level 100's, then an uber can do it easily)

2. even if the uber isn't statstically the same, they have much greater move pools to pull out an SE attack against many others

3. thanks to the abilities in R/S, ubers are now even more powerful. a Mewtwo can be a staller and slowly drain the other teams PP thanks to Pressure, and the same thing with the others.

4. an uber's stats are usually off the charts in at least one catagory, the one that they usually focus on anyway. Even then, it's not like all the others are toilet-worthy, even though Kyogre's Sp. Def is twice as high as it's Def, it can still take a beating from powerful physical attacks and wipe them out in one deft blow

Its cool to collect them at all, but the Pokemon i use the most are the ones I catch early in the game, not ones right before or after I beat the game.
 
They should not be used, for all reasons stated in my sig.
