Hello and welcome to this year's edition of Secret Santa! For those unfamiliar, this version of Secret Santa involves the best kind of gift giving you can do this time of year: free Pokemon teams! Once signed up, participants will submit a Pokemon or core to me through Smogon PMs. These submissions will then be randomized and sent to other players for them to build a team around. Once teams are built, participants will post them here, allowing for more discussion and maybe even some collaboration. Throughout this process, please adhere to the following rules.
General Rules:
Deadline for sign ups is December 14th 11:59 PM GMT -5 (Please also have the core or Pokemon submitted by this time also)
Deadline for building is December 31st, 11:59 PM GMT -5
General Rules:
- Post "in" or whatever else you want to (as long as the intent is clear) to join.
- Don't sign up if you can't guarantee that you'll be able to finish building a team in time.
- Avoid telling people what request you sent/got, as it could ruin the project's purpose.
- Each request submission should be sent to me through Smogon PM. You don't need to do it right after signing up, but if you fail to do it until the deadline then your sign up will be void.
- Requests will be looked at on a case by case basis. If you want to use niche/unranked pokemon go ahead!
- Cores are usually preferred over individual Pokemon unless one of the Pokemon is known to be hard to build around or straight up uncommon.
- If you want your requested Pokemon or core to have specific sets, you're allowed to mention it.
- After sign ups close, I'll use the same PM each user sent with their request in order to let them know the Pokemon or core that was assigned to them.
- Once you're done building, post the team you made on the thread and share the gift!
- Don't be afraid to join just because you feel like your teambuilding skills aren't on par, it's a great opportunity to work on them and anyone would be happy with getting a team for free.
- You're allowed to change requests until the sign up deadline, but avoid doing it if possible, as it could lead me into making big mistakes.
- Have fun!
