Banned deucer.
While Pokemon related discussion is encouraged to take place in #pokemon, no matter what the tier, #genvuu is still a place you should undoubtedly have on your auto-join list.
#genvuu will be the spot for any IRC Senate discussions, and much like #pokemon challenges, #genvuu challenges will also start being a common occurrence. When the first challenge starts, I'll open this thread for discussion purposes.
Challenges!
Jabba has given me the go-ahead to run these challenges from now on, so here it goes:
#genvuu challenges will test your knowledge of the UU tier, battling skill, and teambuilding prowess. Every round you will be given a set of teambuilding guidelines that you must follow to compete. The rounds will last approximately two weeks, and whoever achieves the highest ladder rating at the end of each round will be declared winner. Whoever wins will receive temporary hops in #genvuu, and there is a Hall of Fame where the names of the winners are displayed. You are encouraged to discuss these challenges in both IRC and in this thread; they are meant to generate as much activity and discussion as possible. If you have any challenge that you would like to see happen, feel free to contact me on Smogon or IRC with suggestions.
Also, make sure you join #genvuu on IRC, this is where most Senate meetings and discussions about the UU tier take place. Participating in these discussions is a great way to get more involved with the tier and UU community.
