Take any Pokemon. That's right. Whatever you want. No evolution restrictionsIt must be caught before Flannery, however. Name it Moveslot. If you decide to keep all four moveslots, it must abide by the first column, if you sacrifice one slot, it must abide by the second column, if you delete two, it must abide by the third column.

Column 1, 4 slots Column 2, 3 slots 3, 2 slots
Before Flannery: 21 24 29
Before Norman: 23 26 31
Before Winona: 25 28 33
Before Liza+Tate: 32 35 42
Before Juan: 35 38 46
Before the E4: 43 48 58

Take a Walrein. It must know Hail, Substitute and Protect and stall out three pokemon blonging to different Elite Four members using only the above moves.

Dummy, I'll give you something normal unlike everyone but Texas. Take a Electrike, only moveset restriction being that it know Howl. Work with that however you want. Evolve after soloing Winona.

Take a Rhyhorn. It must be female, and it cannot learn STAB. It can only evolve after soloing Juan.

This is just ridiculous...

Why don't you do it yourself before giving it away? Then tell us how fun it was.

OK, fine. I'll retract that one. Instead:

Take a Torchic. It must know Ember at all times, and Ember must be used at least once in every Gym Leader battle (not E4). NN "Amber."

Here we go (I guess).

The Team:

Ralts that can never exceed level 30. Call it L8GameJunk (Treadshot A1)

Dummy007, you can take any non-evolving non-legendary, but the only move it can use in battle is Hidden Power. (yaya0)

Take any Pokemon. That's right. Whatever you want. No evolution restrictionsIt must be caught before Flannery, however. Name it Moveslot. If you decide to keep all four moveslots, it must abide by the first column, if you sacrifice one slot, it must abide by the second column, if you delete two, it must abide by the third column.

Before Flannery: 21 24 29
Before Norman: 23 26 31
Before Winona: 25 28 33
Before Liza+Tate: 32 35 42
Before Juan: 35 38 46
Before the E4: 43 48 58
(I'm assuming these are level restrictions.) (DetroitLolcat)

Take a Walrein. It must know Hail, Substitute and Protect and stall out three pokemon blonging to different Elite Four members using only the above moves. (Texas Cloverleaf)

Dummy, I'll give you something normal unlike everyone but Texas. Take a Electrike, only moveset restriction being that it know Howl. Work with that however you want. Evolve after soloing Winona. (Dexington)

Take a Torchic. It must know Ember at all times, and Ember must be used at least once in every Gym Leader battle (not E4). NN "Amber." (Galladiator)

Predictions (from MVP to LVP):
Ralts (with loophole exploitation)
Torchic
Electrike
Walrein
DetroitLolcat Mon
yaya0 Mon

Good Luck with the team. Oh, I forgot to mention that Walrein only needs to have those moves before the E4.

UPDATE: I have determined that DetroitLolcat's Mon will be Ninjask. yaya0's will be Makuhita, which will be great until I get the Hidden Power TM (I'm assuming I can use other moves until I get it). I will also opt not to exploit the loophole in Treadshot's.

Choosing a non-mixed pokemon for the hidden power challenge either means you have a lot of balls or just dont plan on using it after finding the tm.

Pretty much option 2, but there's a 50/50 chance of getting a physical Hidden Power, so it's worth a shot.

EDIT:
New predictions list (from MVP to LVP):

Torchic (Only 1 restriction, and an easy one to boot)
Electrike (Solo Winona almost immediately after getting T-Bolt? Heck yeah!)
Walrein (Decent, but late catch is late)
Ninjask (DL Mon) (Chosen strategically for Baton Pass purposes)
Makuhita (yaya0 Mon) (Could be useful if it gets HP Fighting)
Ralts (Great early game, but that Level 30 restriction stinks)

By the way, Texas Cloverleaf, can I alter your restriction slightly to make it both easier and more stallish? The edit is: ...must know Hail, Substitute, Protect, and Toxic and stall...

No levelling past 30 regardless of evolution stage, you coward.

You're about a half-hour late with that insult. I am not a coward. My mommy told me so. :)

I'll call in the Smogon Blissey Brigade. Aromatherapy should cure your Scramble disease.

The fourth move is your choice. If you want Toxic go for it. And it`s Texas Cloverleaf.

Dang you Dummy007, you just pwned my requirements. :( Stupid Baton Pass. But remember: you don't get Baton Pass until Level 45!

Starly should pull through, i only won my Scramble against the E4 by Double Team haxxing with a Staraptor. So i suggest you make full use of Double Team.

I just realized that there is a clause in yaya0's requirement that forces me to pick a non-evolving non-legendary to learn Hidden Power. As a result, I change my choice from Makuhita to the mixed sweeper Seviper, making the final team (at the Elite Four):

Blaziken
Manectric
Walrein
Ninjask
Seviper
Gardevoir

That actually looks like a decent team. Now if I could just ignore the insane requirements...

Don't worry, the fearsomely loyal Lailaps will pick up the slack. And I think max levels is a bit harsh. Maybe a maximum level for its final evolution next time?

Lailaps will...Agree, Starly's solo Gym Leader x below Level y requirements is a bit harsh, but hey, I'm after a challenge, & this should help encourage smart play from me (i.e. Double Team Abuse).

Just posting to say I've already asked Kestral to breed that Hitmonlee for Dexington and am now waiting for it to be done.


Ok, since the talk about the tournament I proposed has ended days ago, I'll PM some people (I'm including myself on the tournament - you know that I like battling as much as I like hosting xD) and the first seven to accept the invitation will be on the tournament.

I will also ask what tier do you prefer but the choice is only between OU and UU because those two are the most popular ones. Obviously the most voted will win.

It will be a much shorter tournament with best of three elimination with no special rules so you can use your regular teams.

EDIT: PMs sent. I've also PMed two of my friends here because I think they are good players and this will be a lot of fun with fresh blood (one has actually asked a Scramble challenge a while ago but I don't want to go through all these pages to see if he finished)
