Wi-Fi Battle Tournament for Get-Together!

[professor plum]

The ideal prizes would be decently ev'd/iv'd pokemon, and rare events. :P

 

[Azonic]

I'll be honest..

Those pokemon are gross. >8D

We have to offer what's hot, yesh. o3o

Movie Arceus, shiny EV'd, etc..

1st: Pick out of 3 awesome prizes
2nd: Pick out of 3 nice prizes
3rd/4th: Pick out of 2 decent prizes

I can breed a shiny flawless Pokemon. RNG abuse ftw, lol. I should enter this tourney with my beasts... Alas.

Standard winners circle pls. No one cares about 4th place lol. xP

Have we decided singles vs doubles vs uu vs shoddy yet?

TBs comp got a virus... why am I not surprised?

 

[Spinor]

Apparently we are still trying to kill each other over that. Wasn't Shoddy gonna be a separate event?

 

[TwilightBlade]

Cherii, imma bite your arm off. :<

I'm trying to back up my files via photobucket or PM, seeing as I just had a virus in April so I got rid of my back up. You know, the 4th or so time around, my female laptop would catch on and not talk to strangers. I did not expect this to happen so soon. I don't go on any nasty sites; just PC. >:C

I don't care what you guys decide (just stop the bickering, lol), but does this last for 3 days? Bogus. Don't expect everyone to be available to battle then, huh, if we have to go through a round in a day. D8

That's the only way to do it. :[ We'll have to be pretty strict on the rules. If you weren't available on one day, you're disqualified and the opponent gets a free pass. If neither were available, both will be disqualified and the opponent from the next round gets a free pass. :/

Anyways, we'll have to use these 3-4 days wisely, so we'll need to start sign-ups 1-2 days before the Get-together starts amirite?

 

[Spinor]

Actually yes, we need the early start. Or else the whole thing will go to waste.

So we will probably need 5 days of sign up at least. One thread for single and another for double. If we have one for OU/UU it's gonna die so don't :(

 

[sasuneuchiha]

So just to get everything straight, we need to get everything planned.

I'm willing to provide prizes for all of them. That's my set job, though if you need me for anything else, I'm probably available. I might not be able to keep contact throughout the tournament because my parents don't want me to take my laptop to the beach...though my ipod might allow thread access. Anyway, just what am I needed for? I think we need to get roles straight before the actual tournament begins.

 

[Azonic]

Alright, I give in. :( I can host Shoddy tournament; I'm more familiar with it and I hosted one before. :< Doesn't really matter if it's 3 divisions of the Battle Tournament or if it's split into two events really.

sasune, could you add a poll to this thread?

like....

Shoddy + OU + UU
Shoddy + OU Singles + OU Doubles

Seeing as most people prefer Shoddy anyways. :x We'll need three actual "hosts" for each division. WK seems to be fapping over OU so he can take that. :( Someone needs to take UU or Doubles, K9 or TB, ursula if he wants to.

 

[Spinor]

I'll be wanting to host doubles for sure, you know :3

 

[sasuneuchiha]

Okay, everyone. There is now a poll on this...though I think I overdid it with doubles. I meant for it to be UU Singles and OU Singles on the second option, but if you want it, please post it. I hope this helps a lot, as we're going to need to start the sign ups today...or tomorrow...

 

[Azonic]

Voted for Shoddy + OU + UU. I propose we just let them choose whether they want a single or a double battle :/

Ursulaaaaa we need to make the sign-up thread in the Battle Stadium is that okay?

We need to get the prizes ready. Quickly people. D8< 4 days left. Just add to the list~

 

[Spinor]

Oh damn, so little time already?! :O

Umm.. K, I know my shinies may be worthless but can I still add them? As well as a possibly EV trained Rayquaza bu no way in hell to know for sure @~@

 

[Azonic]

Sure, I guess.

I'm giving in on the UU thing. I've went around asking and people do prefer doubles. :< The poll won't be used fast enough and we need to start the sign-up threads today and no later than tomorrow.

So do we want a 32 man doubles tourney or 16 man?

Tournament Rules

☆ First and foremost, abide to the PokeCommunity Forum-wide Rules. Otherwise you're uncool, man.

☆ You MUST have the program Shoddy battle before you sign up. If you don't have Shoddy Battle, you can download it here. It is an online battle simulator. You will need to create your team first by using the team builder (it's really easy, select your Pokemon, punch in its EVs / IVs, and select the other stuff and you're good to go!).

☆ The following clauses are in effect throughout the match:

Sleep Clause: No more than one Pokemon should be asleep on the same team. Exceptions include Pokemon that put themselves to sleep using REST, and if a Pokemon is stuck in a situation where you have no other choice but to put the opponent to sleep (Examples: Effect Spore, Encored Hypnosis)

Evasion Clause: The use of attacks that tamper with a Pokemon's evasion or accuracy is prohibited (Examples: Double Team, Sand-Attack). Exceptions may include Acupressure and Metronome, which may alter evasiveness and accuracy by chance.

OHKO Clause: Moves that always OHKO the opponent when the move connects are not to be used. Those moves include Fissure, Sheer Cold, Horn Drill, and Guillotine.

Species Clause: No using two of the same Pokemon on the same team (Example: Having two Salamence on the same team is prohibited).

Hax Item Clause: Items that rely on luck to work are prohibited. (Examples: Items like King's Rock, Quick Claw, Focus Band, Scope Lens, etc. are banned)

Timed Battle: Each person will be given 5:00 for the whole match to pick their next move. You gain more time when you select your move. This clause is to prevent people from stalling out the opponent by not doing anything.
​

☆ The team that you enter with must NOT contain any uber Pokemon. This means that you cannot enter this tournament with any of the following:

Mewtwo
Mew
Wynaut
Wobbuffet
Lugia
Ho-oh
Latios
Latias [w/ Soul Dew]
Groudon
Kyogre
Rayquaza
Deoxys
Deoxys [ATTACK]
Deoxys [DEFENSE]
Deoxys [SPEED]
Garchomp
Dialga
Palkia
Giratina
Giratina [ORIGIN]
Manaphy
Shaymin [SKY]
Darkrai
Arceus
​

Shaymin in land forme is still allowed, as well as Latias if it isn't holding the Soul Dew.


☆ All battles are to be held on Shoddy Battle on Smogon's Server. PokeCommunity's server has an unreliable host, not to mention updates for Pokemon's new Platinum formes aren't there yet.

☆ If two participants conclude the match with conflicting stories, both will be disqualified.

☆ If one participant is unable to battle for a certain round, they will be disqualified and their opponent will advance. If both are found to be unavailable, both will be disqualified and the opponent in the next round gets a free pass. Note: Under the circumstance that your opponent is a no-show, you must post here notifying us. Otherwise, we will just assume you both are no-shows.

☆ The tournament will be a 16 man elimination. Once you're out, you're out.

Looks good. We're gonna post it now, then? The poll says OU Singles and OU Doubles...this is gonna be fun...xD

 

[Azonic]

I've posted the Shoddy one already. We'll post the Singles as soon as Erik comes back online. I'm making modifications for the doubles.

PRIZES PEOPLE. >:(

 

[professor plum]

I thought that Shoddy was going to be a separate event....?
What happened to that?

I mean, this is a WiFi Battle Tournament, I thought. D;

It doesn't really matter that much does it? :x Just a name.

omgizzle ;o;

 

[King!]

Hi! Sorry for interrupting, but I just noticed that sasuneuchiha, one of your hosts, is on vacation to the beach or something this weekend. Just thought I'd let you know!

 

[TwilightBlade]

...does this last for 3 days? Don't expect everyone to be available to battle then, huh, if we have to go through a round in a day. D8

People are dropping out like flies @_@

Screw the rules, this time span isn't legit. See, not even some hosts can guarantee to be present for one day and they're mostly active. :<

I already notified that to Sotomura. x_x ​
