Try 'Em Items Stage was a type of Special Stage. These stages reduce Item cost to 0, allowing players to freely test out items without having to use Coins (even if the player has some items in possession, the game does not use them). Some of the more recent events even have an attempt cost of 0 Hearts!
Wobbuffet is well known as a chance to score very high combos (if all the items are used) as a forced 3-Pokémon Stage with no disruptions and instant Mega Evolution. This is probably the easiest way to complete missions requiring high combo count.
As of the 3DS v1.3.28 (11/15/2016) and Mobile v1.6.12 (11/15/2016) updates, Wobbuffet and Carnivine have become regularly occurring events, alternating every week and lasting for a week each. Like their previous events, items and attempt cost are free.
As of the 3DS v1.4.9 (04/25/17) and Mobile v1.10.4 (04/25/17) updates, Oranguru and Passimian are also part of the rotation, alternating monthly with Wobbuffet and Carnivine.
Due to the rotating 24 week schedule, they are now removed permanently and most people are sad that's gone.
