Smogon Tournament Rules (for reference)
Signups
Round 1
Round 2

Standard Battling Rules:
  • Evasion Clause
  • Sleep Clause
  • Freeze Clause
  • OHKO Clause
  • Species Clause
  • Timed Battle
  • Self-KO Clause
  • Soul Dew Clause
  • Anything that is banned from the OU ladder at the beginning of round 1 (Ubers and OU Suspects) will be banned from the entire tournament.
  • NEW: HGSS movesets will not be allowed as they were not allowed at the beginning of this tourney. I don't think Shoddy has them anyways, but yeah.
Additional Rules:
  • Logs are optional as long as both players confirm the result.
  • No scouting. Spectating is allowed, but if the players ask you to leave please do so.
  • Single elimination tournament.
  • STAB attacking moves are not allowed. For instance, this means that Salamence can use Dragon Dance, but it cannot use Outrage. Hidden Power is considered whatever type it is, not Normal-type like it is usually considered; for instance Salamence cannot use Hidden Power Dragon but Lickilicky can use it. Moves like Seismic Toss, Endeavor, and Night Shade are allowed on Fighters, Normals, and Ghosts, respectively, since they do not gain extra power from STAB.
  • Pokemon and moves that can change types during the battle are banned. This includes Kecleon, Castform, etc. (like anybody was going to use them...)
Regarding Activity and Timeframes:
  • Each round will last 2 weeks; extensions will last around 3 days if both parties have shown activity.
  • Please make activity posts around every 4-5 days or so. If you do not do so I will sub you out.
The deadline for this round is September 29th. Good luck.

The seedings have nothing to do with the pairings; I was just too lazy to edit them out when I c/p'd the list from the signups.

If you have any questions feel free to post or PM me (preferably post though :P). If you think I DC'd/coinflipped unfairly also notify me.

PAIRINGS:

36. panamaxis vs. 47. drcossack
1. locopoke vs. 13. franky
8. Frosty vs. 28. bobtheball4
59. Flamewheeler vs. 15. Earthworm
74. Stallion vs. 61. Blue_Tornado
24. Ryo vs. 31. supermarth64
92. Gouki vs. 68. Objection
29. MagicMaster87 vs. 84. iss988
95. Mrobinson587 vs. 43. Cracker
78. twash vs. 82. latios315
63. Sidd vs. 6. Friar

If I did any pairings wrong or something dumb, please tell me so I can fix it.
 
Just wondering, are HG/SS movesets allowed now that it's been released in Japan (I believe)?

For example, is Super Fang legal on Walrein, Houndoom, Sharpedo, etc.?

As far as I know, they're not playable on Shoddy yet, but if they are allowed in standard Smogon OU play they're allowed in this tourney as long as they don't get STAB bonuses.
 
Ready to battle whenever. predictions

Seeing as they aren't available at the start of this round (or at the start of this tourney for that matter), I personally believe they shouldn't be allowed. Usually, no changes to tiering, movepools etc are allowed to happen after the start of the tournament to make it fair so despite the awesomeness of some of these moves, they should stay the way they are. Anyway I might be making a new team but I should be ready whenever. Predictions:


36. panamaxis vs. 47. drcossack
1. locopoke vs. 13. franky
8. Frosty vs. 28. bobtheball4 - Guess
59. Flamewheeler vs. 15. Earthworm - Flamewheeler is no slouch; highlight.
74. Stallion vs. 61. Blue_Tornado - Gl, probably a highlight match too if I may say so myself ^_^
24. Ryo vs. 31. supermarth64
92. Gouki vs. 68. Objection
29. MagicMaster87 vs. 84. iss988
95. Mrobinson587 vs. 43. Cracker
78. twash vs. 82. latios315 - highlight
63. Sidd vs. 6. Friar - Despite him being a dick to me in PWC predictions, Sidd should win this.

Though match for me, but I've seen worse ;p

Since I'm in about three tournaments at once, and I don't have teams for some of them yet, I'll probably have higher priorities (like getting my team for the Themed Tournament finally finished), but I'll PM when I'll get my team done.

29. MagicMaster87 vs. 84. iss988
95. Mrobinson587 vs. 43. Cracker
78. twash vs. 82. latios315 - Though choice. Tbh, they're up against eachother in my tournament too, so I lol'd a bit at this.

Right, I'd better get to it!

After what happened in the last round, I am going to be making changes to my team before arranging anything.

PM'd cracker letting him know my general flexibility for battling times.

I'd personally like to just use the movesets that were in place in Shoddy 1 at the beginning of the tournament even if shoddy 2 is released with HG/SS during the final rounds. We can have another nostab tournament with that metagame later.

Didn't complete the double victory against latios315 - I lost 3-0 (seriously weak to some of his pokemon, I had to rely on luck to get that score!). gg!
