Starting Friday 1st October at some time, I and possibly some helpers, will host a series of 8-man BW wifi tournaments at various times. How many and when will be based on interest.
You will only be allowed to enter one of these tournaments.
The winners of these tournaments will then be invited to play in another tournament I intend to host on Saturday the 2nd of October, at 9pm GMT (5pm EDT). The size of this tournament will depend on the interest.
There will be no banned pokemon or moves other than what is unobtainable in game without a cheating device.
Be aware that Wifi is slow. These tournaments are small because it is anticipated that rounds can take up to an hour. So make sure you will be around for 3 hours at least before signing up for one of these tournaments.
I am aware this is very early, and short notice. A lot of you will struggle to put a solid team together in time. There will be other Tournaments! This is just for the fun of doing it while everything is brand new.

The purpose of this thread is to gauge how many people will play. So if you do wish to enter one of these tournaments, please post in this thread.

Also if you are a badged member and are willing to host some tournaments, please post that as well. If there are more hosts volunteering than people interested in playing, then perhaps you dont need to bother. But we will see.

The Tournament Rules Thread. Make sure you read this.

The explanation of how to set up wifi battles

The rules of these tournaments will be:
  • Single Battle Mode (one pokemon on the field at a time)
  • Unrestricted Rules
  • Miracle Shooter: Off (god only knows what the hell this means)
  • 6 pokemon per side
  • Level 100
  • Species Clause
  • Sleep Clause (At the end of every turn, if more than one pokemon is asleep on one side, and if at least two of those pokemon were put asleep by enemy moves, excluding Magic Coat, but including Yawn, then that side automatically wins. If both sides qualify, the game ends as a draw)
  • Self KO Clause (If both sides are left with no pokemon surviving, then the owner of the pokemon that initiated the effect that caused the last pokemon to faint is the loser.)

Have a nice day.
 
As I said earlier, I would be happy to host (and play if I can get a team put together).
 
I would like to join this I have teams prep'd already and more on the way

1 question i would like cleared in no restriction to pokemon or moves meaning any of the Current 649 pokemon are allowed to be played
 
I'm willing to host. We need to be careful and make sure these tournaments don't conflict with the Smogon Tour on Friday and Saturday, though.
 
I would want to join but it might be some time before I have any semblance of a team ready.. still only have 4 badges xD
 
When you say "no banned Pokemon," does that include unreleased events?

Also, has anyone bothered to check if level 100s can be EV trained in 5th gen yet? I'm wondering if Arceus is going to be crippled forever.
 
I'll be there as well(also why are some people signing up if they don't have a team?)

Also, has anyone bothered to check if level 100s can be EV trained in 5th gen yet? I'm wondering if Arceus is going to be crippled forever.

Arceus can now max it's ev's like any other pokemon thanks to an item called feather, source
 
I'm in. Also, iirc, Explosion by last Pokémon against last Pokémon results in a loss now, as the Explosion user actually faints first now.

Has Soul Dew been found in-game, or can it be considered banned?
