Embarrassing loss xD but oh well I had fun! he came too prepared for my alakazam! GGs Loco and gl in the finals!
1st battle: XVJG-WWWW-WW29-FTSH
2nd Battle: UH2W-WWWW-WW29-FTTN
Loco won 2-0
Thanks for the tourney matta!
 
darkdevil and i should be battling within the next 24 hours. man this tourney has been fun, cant wait to host another!
I'm still salty that I missed the last tourney cause I'd just been learning how to do mono. So I'm not sure if I'd want a "Battle of Kalos" tourney (depends on the rules regarding dex entry and stuff) but I'm probably down with whatever tourney you host lol.

GG's Slowmobro, I'm glad my Nidoqueen did some work this round as opposed to eating two Outrages last round...

i wanted to do another monotype actually :)
 
Haha I don't care I just want another tourney xD not a fan of OU though, it seems like you see the same mons on every team in OU. I like this meta though, of course you know you'll see your gengars and charizards but otherwise it's all up in the air haha I love it.

well tbh id love to do this meta again myself. i think its a blast, and the old fart genwunner in me cant get enough of it. id love to do it again. ill prob do monitype again next and then this again, everyone seemed to enjoy it. i dont like ou much either, lati@s, heatran, azumarill,rotomw, landoge.. seems like every team is the same like you said
 
Haha can't forget talonflame

you could also try a triples or doubles tourney. Should be fun for a change. Or you could try this meta again, except you are free to use whatever Mega. That should mix things up. Mega Zam, Mega Beedrill, Mega Pinsir, Pidgeot, etc.

Mono tho :) :) :) I'm a happy guy. Gonna start breeding right after the final round.

just fyi guys, i applied to run it again, but this time all megas are allowed :)

also would anyone be interested in a monotype doubles tourney?

YES that means I can use mega squidward:)

edit: relating to what Slowmobro said if you're gonna ban khang and gengar you should also ban mewtwo and his megas.

Mono yes please. Doubles, yes too. Mono doubles? hmm probably yes, just a little out of my comfort zone lol. Weather teams might be too op in that meta

My guess is cuz mega Gengar hits hard and could trap you. Mega Khan otoh laughs in the face of focus sash.
yea and cause theyre both huge dickheads. way overpowered compared to most, although i love that theyre legal on battle spot :)
