The Type Reduction Tournament​

Introduction​

Hello everyone, welcome to the "Type Reduction" tournament! Try testing your battling skills with only using a limited amount of types!

Throughout the tournament, certain types of pokémon will be banned. Each round bans a specific type of pokémon. Any pokémon type that was banned from a previous round also remain banned! So as the tournament progresses, teams will constantly change to suit the new environment. An example can be found in the general rules section in the thread.

General Tournament Rules​

• Each round, a pokémon type is banned. The amount of banned pokémon types increase each round. Example:
  • Round 1: There are no banned pokémon types.
  • Round 2: Ice-type pokémon are banned.
  • Round 3: Ice-type and Psychic-type pokémon are banned.
• This is a Single Elimination tournament.
• Logs are not required to confirm your victory, but would be nice.
• Because teams are constantly changing throughout the tournament, there's no such thing as scouting.

Battle Rules

• Uber and active OU Suspect pokémon are banned (Latias is not banned).
• Evasion Clause
• Sleep Clause
• Freeze Clause
• OHKO Clause
• Self-KO Clause
• Species Clause
• Timed Battle

Round 6 Rules

Pokemon that are or part Water-type, Normal-type, Flying-type, Psychic-type, Fighting-type, Fire-type, Grass-type, and Ground-type are banned!

For the finals, three types have been added to the ban list. In total, nine types have been banned throughout the entire tournament. Most of the common Pokemon used in OU are now unusable, this will be quite tough.

Round 6 Pairings

Congratulations Earthworm for winning the Type Reduction tournament!


There is no deadline for this battle, but please don't so long. I'd also like the winner to post the log in this thread.

Good luck you two!

Thanks everyone for participating in the Type Reduction tournament!

HEY BAD ASS YOU MUST DO IT, FOR THE PANDAS.

(EW has this lol)

 

[Earthworm]

Wow, Fire, Grass, and Ground are all banned?

That leaves um:

Steel, Rock, Dark, Poison, Dragon (although none can be used except Dragonair and Shelgon -_-), Bug, Electric, Ice, Ghost.

I think you banned over half of my last round's team though so give me a few minutes to make a new one!

 

[Krack]

Earthworm will win.
