have i forgotten anything?

Sign me up. :cool:

Sign me up as well! I am still an amateur, though, hope I don't embarrass myself too much :exdee:

I'll sign up too!

Thank god there are more interested :D
Dont worry fynn, ik not stategic or tactic player either so you wont be the only One embaresing hmself xD

I'll sign up. :D

OK sure, for shaibana

I'm still thinking about it.

Will legendaries or 'ubers' be allowed in the tournament? And/or will there be any other kinds of restrictions?

Just want to make it clear.

i personaly prefer no legendairy pokemon, but we can vote for that later on, if you would want to.

what would you ppl prefer? 1 selected team for the whole tournament, or would you like to switch pokemons once in a while as you see fit?
for me it would be 1 selected team becaus i only have 1 good team for these kind of battles :P

-mega evolution is alowed


i think im going to recruit and wait for 1 more week, and then i will start organising

is that ok with everyone?

I would sign up but I only just got the game and I am still working my way through it while engaging in all of those fun collection activities...maybe next time =D

I'd very much like to be able to switch Pokemon as I see fit. I'd also be content with keeping with at least some Smogon rules, such as banning of certain mega stones.

I, however, like the idea of a single team throughout the tournament (I don't even have a full competent team yet, hope it'll get better in the following week) and have no problem with mega stones. I would ban legendaries and that's it - anything else goes. That's how I see it :)

I would play but my Pokemon are very low leveled and that wouldn't be fun for anybody.

You've never seen how Mega-Kangaskhan can rip apart entire teams with no effort, or how Mega-Gengar can shut down the only thing that can reliably stop your sweeper from doing the same thing, have you? They were banned with good reason.

Mega-Kangaskhan, at least, isn't broken in Doubles (official Nintendo tourney mode), but in Singles? So very broken.

This basically. Well, regarding the switching of teams, I'm fine either way really. But like Skyblade also mentioned: Mega Kangaskhan and Mega Gengar are a bit too bonkers.

in that case i suggest we ban the Mega-evolutions entirely, ill ad it to the rule

eventhough i am now making it hard on myself xD
lately ive really been depending on my Mewto with megastone for those online battles, hahaha!

He weny down pretty quickly, though, it was the test of your team that wiped me out last time :p

yeah, but he was pretty succesfull in the other random battles i have done :P
besides he is the most 'neutral' typ i have in my group. he goes first to check stuff out xD

Still, if he happens to encounter a fairy, he'll get destroyed.

Psychic is probably the worst type in the game, currently. I still really enjoy it, but it has common weaknesses (especially with the buff to Dark and Ghost) and few strengths. You'd honestly be better off with a bulkier type and stat build for a scout.

that might be, but he has prooven worthy to me :o
i wouldnt know what else to put first
any tips?

Something sturdy, I guess.

ty capt obvious xD

I'm fine with all mega stones except kangaskhanite and gengarite. Nothing really gamebreaking about Mega Charizard.

Someone to set up your team. A weather-setter, a hazard setter, etcetera.

Other than that, annoyances can make good leads as well. Pokémon like Klefki, who specialize in Paralysis, Sleep, Confusion, and generally disrupting team dynamics among your opponents while letting you scope out how they work.

Nooo... my Mega Mawile and Mega Scizor! =(

I'd actually prefer all mega stones to be available then, since I doubt anyone here will use a cheap Mega Kanghan or Mega Gengar anyway. :monster:

Can't we just ban those two then?

i think its not fair to ban a selected group..

its all or nothing!!
take a vote :3

Ok, my official vote:
-ban legendaries
-ban mega evolutions
-anything else goes

I vote:

-ban legendaries
-do NOT ban mega evolutions
-anything else goes

:cool:

my vote

- ban legendaries
- no mega stones at all
- anything else goes

I'm fine with no legendaries and no mega stones. :P

I vote we ban nothing then. >:[

This reminds me of the people that parrot crap about Final D and Fox only for Smash.

I'm kinda fine with that too to be honest. I've never had any problems with Mega Mewtwos or Lugias or even Arceuses thus far.

Mega Gengar + Kanghan might be pretty bad, but I'd still rather allow them too than ban one of the cooler new features in X/Y entierly just because it's 'unfair' to ban only those two.

Still, it's Shaibana's tournament and she decides. If we ban one thing in this tournament, we can always make another one where that will be legal ;) So let's all just vote for the rules we want for this particular tournament!

''If we ban one thing in this tournament, we can always make another one where that will be legal''

well, that sounds cruel :(

there is also a group called 'psuedo-legendary' i suggest we dont include them as legendary
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wi...y_Pok%C3%A9mon

I'd be against banning pseudo-legendaries.

i dont think there will be anymore sign ups, so i suggest we start with preperations already.
i'd like everyone to post their friend-code and name, so we can add eachother.
my friendcode and name: 2122-6914-9713 Shaibana

ill start making a schedule for the fights.

p.s if this match will be over too soone, we could also do a 2v2 fight as an addition? :P

Friendcode: 5343 - 9356 - 0497

ive edited this thread, pls read the first post ^^

I believe there's one thing you missed - can we use any Pokemon we have (with the exceptions of banned ones) or are we confined to one 6-member party throughout the tournament?

Ask a Mod to update it for you.

week 1 battles:
for starters we all play 1 match, so that shouldnt take too long :3

Shaibana vs Agent Proto
Ultima Shadow vs White Wizzard of Fynn
NorthernChaosGod vs WildRaubtier

you have till 30-3-2014, 00:00 to play these matches! :D

lets not spam this thread full, and try to pick a date and time through monet message ^^
when you are done, you pm the score to me :D

good luck!!

p.s i still need the FC and names from Agent Proto and Wildraubtier!

Just to make sure.

If I lose this match, that doesn't disqualify me from the entire tournament, right? I still have the chance to rack up some points against the others? :D

Just need to make sure, considering who I am facing this week :exdee:

we have only 6 players, so if every loser would be disqualified we would be done very fast :P haha.
you are not done if you lose this match xD

Oh, looks like the matches are set!

Here are my FC and name: 4570-6655-7654 (Jeff)

Waiting for my opponent to respond to my PM or post their FC here. :[

if you cant play this match becaus he doesnt respond, then you get 1 point anyway, and he will be disqualified :l
i Pm'ed him a view days ago to, to give us his FC and name, but he didnt respond either

I just hope he's OK.

how far are we on this, guys?
or are i and Proto the only one who have battled so far? :o
and what about WildRaubtier?

I'm supposed to battle UltimaShadow today. Just waiting for them to get online ;)

Heh. "Them". I wonder which one you'll actually be facing. Think you're going to face Bernkastel, or Mio?

I. Don't. Know. :colbert:

should i enter Ultima shadow in 3 parts, in this competition? xD
or more? how many characters are they?

"There are actually six of us. Me, Yukari... and
four stupid weaklings that no one cares about."

with a rocket launcher for me please?"
"Affirmative."

"Well, first we decided to all play at the
same time this time around. So we
each took one pokemon from our own
individual teams and put them together..."










http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3.../Rider4b-1.pnghttp://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c344/AGAFURO/Mio4.png
"And then Bern complained that the
team sucked, and decided to kick out
Rydia, KOS-MOS and Yukari's contributions
and just add three of her own instead
of one. In exchange, Yukari, KOS-MOS
and Rydia were the ones to actually play."










http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...FURO/mio2y.pnghttp://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...O/Riderb-1.png
"Yeah... and then Yukari basically got
the last word on every decision made
so Rydia and KOS-MOS didn't actually
get to do anything at all. So yeah..."

I would know. I was there. The horror.

Did you let Jarngreipr faint?! :(

I did not take her into this fight. I did not want to put her life on the line for a lost cause...

you guys make me afraid to battle Ultima :P

ive got a good team, unfortunatly i had to replace 1 of my main team.
Xerneas was part of my first team, wich i replaced for metwo, wich i replaced again :3

Proto, please dont give spoilers (a) i like it to be a suprise for as long as it can D:

.. its time for me to go to the name rater.. my team deserves nicknames!

Don't be scared. He's a nice guy. He always has something good and helpful to say to you, even if he totally wipes the floor with you :monster:

Has anyone completed their battles yet?

yes, im afraid you are the only one that hasnt been able to battle

time is up!

scores so far:
Agent Proto 2
Ultima Shadow 2
Fynn 1
Shaibana 1
NorthernChaosGod 1 (default point)
WildRaubtier 0 (problably disqualified)

new week, new matches.
im keeping WildRaubtier out, untill we hear something of him. otherwise he will be disqualified at the end of this week.

Shaibana VS Ultima shadow
Agent proto VS NorthernChaosGod
Fynn VS Agent proto

we now have uneven nr of contestants, so each week someone will have to battle 2x so everyone has a match every week ^^

game on!

Ah sweet, I get to play twice.

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...URO/rydia1.pnghttp://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ernkastel2.png
"Wow. Turns out my team is really solid!
I really didn't think it would be this good."










http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ernkastel3.pnghttp://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...URO/rydia3.png
"Bah. I had just prepared my team
for some action, and then you steal
the spotlight at the last second."
"But... you team's no fun Bern.
It's just really annoying and unfair."
"That's the whole point of it you idiot!"

i can cry right now :(
i thought i had a pretty solid team, but when i have to fight actual people they dont seem that efficient :'(

how is the rest doing?
im hearing nothing yet :o and its already saturday!

NCG and I battled last night, I won.
Fynn and I should battle later today.

Edit: Just battled with Fynn. Close victory for me. :D

Alright people, this may seem out of the blue, but my battle with Proto was my last in this tournament. It was tremendous fun, but schoolwork is piling up and I can't really participate anymore. I'm really sorry :(

Poop!

u cant even take 10 minutes a week of for a battle? :(

new week, new battles!
with fynn out, that leaves the 4 of us :(

scores so far:
Agent Proto 6
Ultima Shadow 4
Fynn 2 (he is out)
Shaibana 2
NorthernChaosGod 1

new matches for this week:
Shaibana vs NorthernChaosGod
Ultima Shadow vs Agent Proto
Ultima shadow vs NortherChaosGod

and with that (and becaus of 2 ppl left) the competition will be concluded :o
the points from the battles with Fynn will be extracted becaus not everyone had done a battle with Fynn

anyone any ideas what we could do afer this? :D

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ernkastel3.png
"Before this is all over, someone
will have to battle me. And since
NCG has decided to face Mio...
I guess that only leaves Proto."










http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...FURO/mio2y.pnghttp://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ernkastel2.png
"Why not just let Proto himself decide?"
"Because then I won't be facing anyone
and that would just be terribly boring."
"You know what's boring? Your team."

Is it the all-Wobbuffet team that you are talking about?

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ernkastel3.png
"Nah... in the end, that would be
too easy to counter. It's only fun
in the more recent gens if the
opposing team is also all-wobbuffet.
But the team does have one wobbuffet,
as well as a few other things that
would make anyone want to smash
their 3DS in half in sheer frustration.
The team won't die, but it also won't
kill. It just... drags on. Toxic is the
fastest and most merciful death
that my team would ever grant."

Hm, I'll take that challenge then!

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3.../Rider4b-1.pnghttp://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ernkastel1.png
"So, we have all picked one pokemon that
is representing ourselves in our teams.
Mio has Scizor, Rydia picked Gardevoir,
KOS-MOS went for Milotic and I... am
currently sticking with Garchomp, though
I suppose Crobat would fit even better.
So... how come you choose Sableye?"











http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...ernkastel3.pnghttp://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...O/Riderb-1.png
"Though Wobbuffet still remains a favourite,
I don't want a blue blob with lipsticks to
carry my glorious name. Sableye on the
other hand has the perfect typing for me,
only weak to the type I hate the most.
Two of its ideal moves are 'Taunt' and
'Foul Play', which suits me perfectly. And
it has that evil grin in this gen, as well as
the potential to be a real pain in the ass."

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...FURO/mio2y.png
"Tell me about it. Stupid priority Will-o-Wisps.
You always inflict my entire team with Burns."

http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...O/rider3-1.pnghttp://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c344/AGAFURO/Mio7.png
"Well, this is 'Burnkastel' we're talking about."
"Hah! Yeah, I guess there are some people
who just 'wants to watch the world Bern'."

"The next person to make one of those
pathetic attempts at a bad pun will know
just how fun it really is to 'bern in hell'."

*splosh*
"...Yukari? Why the hell did you just
pour a bucket of water over my head?"
"Oh, I'm just trying to linder your pain
by applying cold water to the Bern."

Two of my main party absolutely destroy Sableye. Magic Bounce is a wonderful thing.

i have won 1x .. i am happy now
now i dont feel like a complete failure :D

Goodmorning everyone!
the results are in!
if you have 2 numbers then the first score is your total, and the 2nd number is without the battle with Fynn


Ultima Shadow 8/6
Agent Proto 5/3
Shaibana 4
NorthernChaosGod 3
and Fynn 2

Ultime shadow takes the cup!
Attachment 52955

thank you all for participating and i hope you will join again next time :D

i'd like to play a 2v2 just for fun.. anyone willing to join? :D

:cool:






I'd be up for a 2v2, if it's actually possible to make 4 people show up at the same time. :p
