What is Doubles UU?
Doubles UU, sometimes abbreviated as duu, dubs uu, or even just uu in the context of doubles, is exactly what it sounds like. It's a doubles metagame in which the most powerful threats, which are OU by usage, are banned. At the moment, it's a largely unexplored metagame with only a few good players.
Where can I play it?
You can find a game on the showdown ladder, by selecting Doubles UU under ORAS Doubles formats. Alternatively, you can ask for a game in the doubles room on showdown, where you can battle more experienced players.
What's banned?
A list of legal Doubles UU Pokemon can be found by making a new team on PS and selecting the format as "Doubles UU." The teambuilder will then display what can be used.
Some topics for discussion:
Aegislash, Amoonguss, Azumarill, Bisharp, Breloom, Charizard-Mega-Y, Conkeldurr, Cresselia, Diancie-Mega, Dragonite, Ferrothorn, Garchomp, Gardevoir-Mega, Gengar, Greninja, Gyarados, Heatran, Hoopa-Unbound, Hydreigon, Jirachi, Kangaskhan-Mega, Keldeo, Kyurem-Black, Landorus, Landorus-Therian, Latios, Ludicolo, Mawile-Mega, Milotic, Politoed, Rotom-Wash, Scizor, Scrafty, Suicune, Sylveon, Talonflame, Terrakion, Thundurus, Togekiss, Tyranitar, Ubers, Venusaur, Venusaur-Mega, Volcanion, Weavile, Whimsicott, Zapdos

Some topics for discussion:
- Trick Room
- Some relevant threats and how to counter them
- How to do some OU archetypes fare in UU? (rain, sun, semi-tr, etc.)
- What Pokemon can fill certain niches now that they aren't outclassed by their OU counterparts?
- Some teams/cores that you've seen success with
