Project 1v1 Fight Nights

[bern]

Art by Fancy1 :D
OP based on freezai's OU Fight Nights project, hosted by bern.

Want to see top 1v1 players go up against each other outside of PL? You're in luck!
Welcome to 1v1 Fight Nights, a periodic 1v1 forum event where challengers face off in a high stakes best of 5
Each best of 5 fight will be between high profile players with the goal of creating a space to see hype games on a regular basis

The date and time of each fight will be announced here beforehand and the 1v1 Room on Pokemon Showdown! will serve as a spectator chat for the series.
​

This will serve as a discussion thread for current and future matchups, feel free to post memes / funny gif moments
The plan is to have 2 matches every other week or so, with 1 old gen match and 1 SV match, but both of these are flexible based on community demand / the number of people who step up to play

General guidelines for being featured:
- Ideally, participants have some sort of reputation, whether that's for deep individual tournament runs, good team tournament performances, wild teambuilding, a competitive personality, or some mix of any of these
- Anyone with a current discord / forum / PS punishment (such as an infraction, ban, lock, tournament ban, etc) won't be able to participate until after it expires
- Participants will need to agree to be featured

Congratulations to Elo Bandit and Lumii for winning, and thank you to everyone for playing!

We will be back... at some point I don't even know when lmao.

I do want to say though, we are looking for new Fight Nights hosts! If you are someone new to hosting and you're able to organize one or two fights, feel free to DM me on Discord or Smogon and I will give you permission to announce it.

That's all for now, hope to see you soon!
