"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Then, God created humankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them, male and female he created them. To differenciate them, He created the colors, 8 colors for 8 Nations. Afterwards, God got bored as shit and left the World for a better place. Without God, the 8 Nations started to skin themselves alive. To put an end to this madness, the 8 Nations decided to institute the Rainbow League. By fighting in the Rainbow League, the Nations would decide which Nation would be the strongest, with (almost) no bloodshed. For this, each Nation would need to select a Champion, and send him to the Rainbow League, where he would fight the other Champions.
The winner of the Rainbow League is the Rainbow Champion, and since God left this world, he would be considered by all the Nations, as the one and only true God."
Sega Genesis 1.0 beta
In the previous edition, McMeghan from Blue Moon came out victorious and was crowned Champion of the Rainbow League in a fierce battle against FLCL from Yellow Comet, who became a traitor to his own color in the finals.
Everything seemed right and fair, and the world was finally at peace...
However, one day, the ruler of the Color Nations vanished, leaving being him an empty alumnus'd throne awaiting for its next owner.
YOU, are a citizen who decided to stand up, and join the fray for the chance to be the one and only, Rainbow Champion.
So fight, fight for your color, fight for your Nation, fight for your family, your friends or your own selfish self, for no one is going to call your motive into question once you'll become the one and only RAINBOW CHAMPION.
Previous Edition : R1 / R2 / R3 / Quarters / Semis / Finals
The most ferocious of the 8 Nations. Its citizens are all fierce brawlers who have a really simple vision of the world around them : There are two kinds of people, the dominant, and the dominated. If you ever face someone from the Red Nation, don't show them any weakness if you don't want to end up in the wrong team. Their previous champion JohnYiu lost in a nailbiter against the previous Rainbow Champion.
The most developed Nation, in terms of economy, or science. It is definitely where you'd live if you're looking for comfort. Its citizens are knowledgeable and peaceful people, but they also feel like the burden of educating the other Nations lie on their shoulders. This superiority complex only grew bigger when their own champion McMeghan defeated the Rainbow League. They maintain a cold rivalry with Red Star, as the way they see the world is diametrically opposite.
This Nation is the poorest in terms of natural ressources, yet, it's also the second most developed Nation, technology wise. They live in an immense desert, and are very proud of their ability to survive in so inhospitable an environment. The engineers of the Yellow Comet are able to do more with less, no one should undervalue their ingenuity. In the eyes of most people, they are seen as colorful and weird characters, which may be very true when you look at FLCL . The people of Yellow Comet have been immensely hurt when their previous Champion made the decision to betray them to join Purple Sky, and are now awaiting for the chance to get back at their ennemies for the humiliation.
The people of the forest, as the other Nations love to call them. Living in the biggest forest of the world, they are in total harmony with Nature. Their ability to survive in such a wild world is a proof of the rough strength that the Green Nation possess. As untamable as they seem though, North did not make it very far the last time. Mother Nature may be the silent kind of lady, she's definitely not going to let History repeat.
The richest nation in terms of natural ressources. The Brown citizens are farmers most of the time. Their life is usually really simple : receive what your parents left, and work all your heart to build up an even better property for your children to inherit. Threaten what their line built over time, and they will defend it with a fury that you would never expect from people that humble. pokebasket surely made his family proud as he attempted to climb at the very top of the Rainbow League, but any place that isn't number 1 will simply not be enough for Brown Field.
The mystical Purple Nation. Simply alluding to the name of this Nation would strike fear into the hearts of most people. They are few, but are known as dangerous, and pernicious. Citizens of the Purple Nation are supposed to possess magic powers. Remember your mom's words : "You better eat all your meal, or you might become the new victim of a Purple malediction". Lockheed surely casted a very dark shadow over the previous Rainbow League, until he got defeated by the Yellow Nation. Everybody thought that it was the end of the Purple Nation, and yet they managed to make FLCL their puppet to fight in the Rainbow League Finals... who knows which trick they are going to pull off this time around. One thing is for sure though, never count out the Purple Nation. Remember, your shadow will never ever leave you either, no matter how fast you run.
The rivals of the Purple Nation. These two Nations fought for years, and share a real aversion to each other. Last year was really a rough one for Pink Ozone, as they were defeated by Purple Sky in the early stages of the competition. Maybe Honus was not quite the Champion they were needing to overcome their ennemy.
The Pink Nation always criticized the Purple cult of mystical energies, and fight for the good ! Or so they say... Are you one to fight for the greater interest, or are you yet another selfish, lost and weak human ?
The mines of the Gray Nation are a ressources that every other Nation would love to obtain. See, steel and iron are two rare ressources among the Nations, and the Gray Galaxy has a total control over this market. The strong minors of the Gray Nations are not fighters to be underestimated. They sent their most experience warlord YABO to fight in the previous Rainbow League, and yet did not manage to put in danger Brown Field's own Champion. Will this year be the one for Gray Galaxy. No doubt that they will keep trying regardless of the outcome, for their will is as solid as iron.

The war between the Pink and the Purple Nations generated a wasteland, made of the territories claimed over and over by the two Nations. In the end, a new bastard country was created : the Black Hole. Its citizens are creepy and ruthless, used to the life in the hell of a battlefield. In the last edition, Black Hole joined Purple Sky which helped them greatly in order to defeat the Sky Ozone's alliance with White Constellation.
The citizens of the White religion believe that they are supposed to spread the good Word. Anybody can become a citizen of this nomad entity. As long as you believe that God is still here, somewhere, you'll have the right to claim your affiliation to the Holy people. May God come to their rescue this year, as the previous one was nothing but a massacre for them.
- I'll be really strict on the activity, and sub out anybody inactive really fast, so if you think that you can idle the first rounds, you're dead wrong. Each round will last either 5 or 7 days, and I'm not planning to ever delay any round so that's onto you to get your battle done.
- I may handpick the players.
- Every player will be randomly given a color, and will have to use pokemons belonging to this color. HERE is the color pokedex.
- HOWEVER IF YOU JOINED THE PREVIOUS EDITION OF THIS TOURNAMENT, YOU WILL BE GIVEN THE RIGHT TO KEEP YOUR COLOR. STATE IT IN YOUR SIGN-UP POST IF YOU WISH TO DO SO.
- You can use a Mega Evolution, regardless of its color, as long as the normal form belongs to your color. For instance, if you belong to the Red Nation and use Charizard, then you don't break any rule by playing Charizard-X.
- If you're caught using pokemons of another color, you instantly lose the battle.
- Every round will have a specific rule, so please pay attention.
