This Tournament will start with divisions of 4 where the top 2 players from each division will make it to the next round. Which means the first round will be swiss for each division. After that it is single elimination. The reason I want to start out with the divisions so a "metagame" will form, so to speak, and give you guys some trial and error. 64 will probably be the cap.
In this tournament you allowed to use Latias/Latios WITHOUT SOUL DEW, Wobbuffet (Tickle included), Manaphy, and Deoxys-E. This tournament is to test these pokemon in the metagame. I encourage everyone to use at least one of the allowed pokemon but its up to you if you want to use them or not.
I dont do first come first serve sign ups but I'm going to be easier and let people in if it shows that you are active in the community. So if you have 5 posts don't bother unless someone well known can vouch for you.
one other rule, I would like if you wear the tag MDWL when testing and playing with your team. This way it makes it so others know what team you are using so practice games can be done.
The rules are pretty simple:
- Battles MUST be played on Shoddy Battle.
- Self-KO Clause - You cannot use moves like Explosion or Destiny Bond on your last Pokémon if it will force a tie.
- Sleep Clause - You can only put to sleep one Pokémon on an opponent's side at any time. If you use Spore to put one Pokémon asleep, you cannot use it again to put another Pokémon asleep until the first one wakes up.
- Freeze Clause - If at anytime two different Pokémon are frozen on a player's field, then the player that froze the two Pokémon loses.
- Evasion Ban - Moves that specifically increase evasion are banned. Double Team is an example of a banned move.
- OHKO Ban - Moves that have a chance of OHKOing a Pokémon are banned. An example is Sheer Cold
- No scouting. Period. I don't care if you watch other battles done by the other participants but I don't want to hear that so-and-so is stalking their opponent. Not happening.
- Battle Time Out MUST be on.
- Species Clause- You cant use more than one of the same pokemon. Example: you cant have two Mime Jr. on your team.
