The Uber Pokemon
Well, it seemed that there is no thread saying the Uber Pokemon, and maybe some player do not know what they are. So here is the list of currently called Uber Pokemon.
Note: Focusing on Pictures later. I just wanted to make the thread look a little better with Sinnoh Pokemon Pictures.
Mewtwo:
Total base stats of 680, and an impressive moves, Mewtwo is one strong Pokemon. Not much will out speed nor counter out speed it. Many call it the ultimate sweeper.
Mew:
With only 600 BST, the lack of power is made up it a movepool. Many of the "special" Pokemon with 600 BST are not banned. Mew is mainly because of it's movepool.
Lugia:
With 680 BST, Lugia is like the mirror version of Mewtwo. Lugia is more of a defensive Pokemon when Mewtwo is offensive. Though it has extra weaknesses, it can recover that taken damage and boost stats futher.
Ho-Oh:
Like it's metallic twin, this golden bird has 680 BST, along with being more on the offensive. Despite losing 50% to Stealth Rock, it has a nasty movepool and enough attack power to say that if it switches in, despite being severely slaughtered, it can set up and own, as well as being able to recover from those rocks. Very deadly and despite the ease in which it can be countered, it can still wipe out an entire team.
Latias and Latios
An Uber, that many people think are acceptable WITHOUT the broken Soul Dew. First things first, Soul Dew is not as broken as it was in advance. Latios is offensive, and therefore the Soul Dew will boost his Special Attack. But he is Uber without it. He has a BST of 600, but with the important stats carrying the power, he has some serious resistances and don't have the common 4x Ice weakness that plagues his Dragon cousins. Throw in an impressive movepool, the ability to use Recover to heal himself and boost their already awesome special capabilities, and you have a monster that you wouldn't want to face. He also has the option of attacking on the physical side, with dragon Dance, and a higher attack stat.
Latias has been deemed not Uber, but only WITHOUT the Soul Dew.
Kyogre:
With a BST of 680 and a movepool to defeat many types, Kyogre is one big beast. It could care less about the advantage it gives to the Electric types switching in, because with their general poor defensive stats, they will surely get hurt by powered up Water moves, let alone the powerful Super Effective moves it learns as well as the fact that grass and electric types are rare in Ubers. Generally difficult to defeat, especially on the special side, this monster will truly wash you away.
Groudon:
And Kyogre's nemesis. This was meant to be a fire type, but instead, they give it a type that has better resistances, but has a movepool that allows it to pretend that it is. It can run a few roles in the Uber metagame, sweeper, supportive, wall, you never know what to expect from it. Also gives help to other pokemon in the metagame, as a Chlorophyll boost can just be what your Exeggutor waiting in the wings needs to outspeed and destroy your opponent's team.
Rayquaza:
Anyone who has been on the receiving end of a mauling by a Salamence will know the pain when you imagine a stronger version of it, with an even better movepool and 80 extra stats. Sure it might be slightly slower, but what it loses it makes up for in punch, and most Salamence sets Dragon Dance anyway so wouldn't utilise the natural Speed. It is only one of 2 pokemon that can Dragon Dance and Outrage, reason enough to ban it with 150 base attack. A truly fearsome beast that could care less if you had a pokemon with STAB Ice Beam on it if holding a Yache berry or a Focus Sash. You'd better hope it kills it in one hit.
Deoxys:
With all 4 forms that can be used in D/P/Plt, and 600 as all forms BST, only 3 forms are Uber. Sharing the same nice movepool, the standard version is an offensive monster with limited defensive capabilities, but will seriously maim, if not kill almost any Pokémon it faces. The attacking monster has less defensive capabilties, it will likely fall to any attack, but will outspeed you more likely than not, and almost certainly end your Pokémons role in that battle with extreme speed and attacking stats. The defensive version will not be going anywhere, and will likely Pressure stall you to death, whilst it LOLs at you and dusts off the damage with impressive defences and recover, as well as setting up entry hazards which make switching in hard. The speed version was to be considered as OU, but after the popularity of the "Dual Screen" Deoxys-s, everyone was forced to have a very fast Taunter and games often balanced on the speed tie, i.e. whose Taunt went first. This made for an unanimous decision for it being Uber

Dialga:
Dialga has a great type combo, great movepool, and 680 BST. It can do all sort of rolls like Trick Room Sweeper, Bulk Up, Restalk, and a normal Sweeper.
![[PokeCommunity.com] The List of Uber Pokemon](https://www.freewebs.com/umbreon97/Palkia%20overworld.png "[PokeCommunity.com] The List of Uber Pokemon")
Palkia:
Palkia has only one weakness and it is common in Ubers. With 680 BST, as well having a nice movepool, but not the best defence to back it up. Though, it can sweep better better with better Attack and Speed stats then the pink little walling devil. (Blissey)

Giratina and Giratina Origins:
Giratina has a unique typing, the same 680 BST and a healthy mix of good moves. However, like Palkia, Giratina can only do one thing, but boy is it good at it. Stalling. With 150 Hp and Will-o-wisp, it can completely shut down physical attackers, while can EV it's 120 SDef to take Special hits better as well. Giratina-O, however, is an attacking force. With good attacking stats, decent bulk, and STAB Outrage, it all looks good. However, it can only hold the Platinum Orb. This works in the same way as the Orbs for Dialga and Palkia – they raise their STAB options by 20%. It also cannot be Tricked off Giratina-O. It's a good job (or bad, if you're facing it) that Dragon and Ghost hit most of the Uber Metagame for SE damage.

Manaphy:
Manaphy was originally OU at the beginning of DPPt. However, with its trait, which allows it to heal all status effects if it raining, even self inflicted ones, it can regain 100% of its decent health in one go and attack next turn. It can also do a sweep with Tail glow and a good Special movepool. It loses to Blissey most of the time, however, as Bliss often carries Thunder which is Super Effective on the little blue pixie which is 100% accurate in the rain that Manaphy loves so much.

Darkrai:
Well lets just say one word, fast. But not just that, it has a move that has an 80% chance of making one (or two in a double battle) Pokemon fall asleep for numerous turn. And even a stronger version of Giga Drain that takes a huge about of HP out of a Pokemon while it is asleep. And the best part is, it's ability damages your foes sleeping Pokemon. It can completely shut down any ResTalk strategies. This is not the only thing it can do, as it can sweep with 135 base SAtk and Focus Punch for Blissey off a decent, but not great attack stat.

Shaymin Land Forme:
Believe it or not, Shaymin is not Uber. Though, some leagues call it Uber due to the fact not many people have a legit one.

Arceus:
The strongest Pokemone yet and it hasn't even been released to Japan yet! Though to those who use Action Replay (heheheh) we have it. With BST of 720, it has the highest BST ever made! Not only that, it has a large movepool that could be larger then Sinnoh as we know it! When it was revealed, many said it should be it should have it's on tier! Must I go on?
Well I hope with helped everyone if you didn't know em already. If there is already a guide on the forums like this, please close this. Thanks for reading.
