Re: Views on battling with ubers?
I have never really battled competitively but imo I see battling with Ubers is just as challenging as any other tier. This being when both players use Ubers. I think the reason why people dislike the use of them, is that it pushes back other pokemon who don't stand up, meaning to stand a chance, players have to use Ubers.
As I said I am far from a pro so I don't know what the 'gap' is between the tiers. But I would assume that the use of standard rules means that all OU and below are at least feasible whereas Ubers are just that step to strong making other pokemon redundant. I like using any rules as long as both players agree ^^. |

Re: Views on battling with ubers?
Like everyone here, I have no problem with Uber battles, as long as both sides use Ubers and/or know of it.
However, I don't find them as interesting as OU/UU/NU, which otherwise provide a greater challenge, and require better skills of making good teams. |

I think he means in the Uber tier, as in both players use a team of six ubers. I personally think that every tier requires skill; you have to use a team that can handle the top threats, but still have a surprise element so that you can't be countered immediately. I like UU the best, because there are a wide variety of pokemon available, plus some of the pokemon in NU can be used well like Linoone and Qwilfish.

Ubers are fine against others and as a means to power through some of the extras after the main story is finished. They can be fun to play with when you already have a designated team and are handy for switches during EV and/or EXP training of other weaker Pokemon, but otherwise it should be discouraged.
Although I always loved using Mewtwo on Pokemon Stadium. When I caught it, everyone in the neighborhood thought I was the most awesome kid on the block. Psychic was once one hell of a scary move. My one moment of popularity thanks to a digital beast. |

I honestly don't care if people use Ubers or not. Generally the ones that spam ubers suck anyways, and if you only have 1 or 2 then It's KO'd just like any other pokemon. I generally go for type advantage when facing them. Simple, yet effective.
I use ubers in game, but generally not vs. other people. |

my take is i see no realy point to seporate pokemon into tiers. In my defence all pokemon are the same (not counting legends trios not in question.) Each pokemon fully evolved to final stage are all strong its all in the way you train them. "ubers" are not if i may say this "the noobs way out" pretty much the cheap hit in the heat of battle but a slight bit more of a challenge to battle.Me i use only one "uber" most of the time on my team and on certian situations 2 depending on a few things (no need to go into detail.)All i'm saying is if you ask me there is no need to seporate pokemon into these tiers the only teir that needs to be is all (fully) evolved pokemon and the legends/Trio members. if you ask me "uber" pokemon are no different that OU etc.
