    Rules

    Spoiler:
    About the finals:
    The winner will face the losers brackets' winner in a best of 3 games, but he will have an advantage of 1 game. If the winner of the losers brackets manages to defeat his opponent, there will be another best of 3 games match ( J ) but this time, none of them will have a head start nor advantages.
    So, the matches losers won't be totally out until they lose at the losers brackets.


    The rules are as the following:

    Battle mode: Single
    6x6 battles
    You may use any Pokemon among the OU (overused) tier, although using the ones in the lower tiers aren't prohibited.

    The Overused list is:

    Aegislash, Alakazam, Azumarill, Bisharp, Blissey, Chansey, Charizard, Clefable, Conkeldurr, Ditto, Dragonite, Espeon, Excadrill, Ferrothorn, Garchomp, Genesect, Gengar, Gliscor, Greninja, Gyarados, Heatran, Keldeo, Klefki, Landorus, Landorus-T, Latias, Latios, Lucario, Mamoswine, Mandibuzz, Mawile, Pinsir, Rotom-W, Scizor, Skarmory, Sylveon, Talonflame, Thundurus, Togekiss, Tyranitar, Venusaur, Volcarona.

    Banned Pokemon list:


    Arceus, Blaziken (with Speed Boost Ability), Darkrai, Deoxys-A, Deoxys-N, Dialga, Giratina, Giratina-O, Groudon, Ho-Oh, Kyogre, Kyurem-W, Lugia, Mewtwo, Palkia, Rayquaza, Reshiram, Shaymin-S, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zekrom.

    Banned Items:

    Soul Dew, Gengarite, Blazikenite, Kangaskhanite, Lucarionite.


    • Endless Battle Clause: Any moveset on any Pokémon that is capable of intentionally causing an endless battle is banned from competitive play. Such as:
      • A Pokémon may not carry Recycle and hold a Leppa Berry in conjunction with Heal Pulse and Milk Drink, Moonlight, Morning Sun, Recover, Roost, Slack Off, Soft-Boiled, or Wish.
      • A Pokémon may not hold a Leppa Berry and carry Recycle and Pain Split on its moveset.
      • A Pokémon may not hold a Leppa Berry and carry Recycle and Fling on its moveset.

    • Moody Clause: Pokémon with the ability Moody are not permitted.
    • Evasion Clause: The moves Double Team and Minimize, in addition to the abilities Sand Veil and Snow Cloak, are not permitted in play.
    • OHKO Clause: A Pokemon may not have the moves Fissure, Guillotine, Horn Drill, or Sheer Cold in its moveset.
    • Sleep Clause: Only one Pokémon may be put to sleep on the opposing team at a time, if not induced by a move such as Rest.
    • Species Clause: Players cannot have two Pokémon with the same Pokédex number on the same team.
    • Pokémon may be up to level 50.
    Dates:

    The tournament should begin on July 1st 2014 (so you'll have time to breed your teams and whatever), and you may subscribe to it until June 17th 2014, by sending me a PM ou by replying to this thread, so I'll update the main post with the confirmed players and then use a randomizer to decide the confrontations.
    The winners of the first games will advance to the quarterfinals and the losers will play among each other in the losers bracket.


    You may have three days to settle your battle for each stage of the tournament, and then send me the battle code via PM. I'll update the main post after watching it.

    Note: Since the participant 「 」 only has access to a wifi connection on Wednesdays and Saturdays, he can only battle in these days specifically.



    Prizes:

    - Every participant will get an Enigma Berry as a participation award;
    - 1st place will get 3 flawless shiny and Kalos born Pokemon (which 2 of them he/she will choose among my list, the other is my choice);
    - 2nd place will get 2 random flawless shiny and Kalos born Pokemon;
    - 3rd place will get 1 random flawless shiny and Kalos born Pokemon (Don't worry, I'll choose nice things ).

    Can't spam recovery moves? Does this mean no toxic or burn stalling?

    This does not bode well for my hang on to the bitter end mentality.

    Well, if it turns into an endless battle..

    I'll take it off, but keep in mind that it can't be endless!

    You can toxic/burn stall to death. What you can't do is funbro. Btw, you don't really need to post the mons in the tier you're fighting in, the banlist is more than enough.

    Also, why not have all battles be 6v6? If you have 3 days to arrange each match, that's plenty of time for a full team match (which makes a lot more tactics viable while 3v3 is heavily offense oriented)

    I posted the mons of the Overused tier for people to know what an Overused tier has, because not everyone knows it and things should be explained.

    Also, why not have all battles be 6v6? If you have 3 days to arrange each match, that's plenty of time for a full team match (which makes a lot more tactics viable while 3v3 is heavily offense oriented)
    You guys didn't say anything about it so I've put the way they do in the championships here, especially if there are a lot of players. But if you're not bothered by battling 6x6 the whole competition, alright, let it be 6x6.

    I really don't have time to draw much, unfortunately.

    Hope everyone has fun!

    I've never been competitive in pokemon before. I usually get my butt kicked when I play with friends....

    Kinda why I'm hesitant to join up.

    Once you understand the fundamentals, it becomes quite natural.

    Almost every match, assuming the Pokemon are evenly matched, is decided by who switches the best. I guess that could be a tip.

    Look up some common Pokemon setups on Smogon if you feel lost.

    People like you can be some of the scariest opponents to someone experienced.

    By doing things no one in their right mind would consider, you are an unpredictable force of nature!

    You just take a couple of them to the daycare and leave them for a little while. Right?

    Usually one of them is a ditto....

    Then you get the egg and ride back and forth on your bicycle.
