NU Speed Building Tour
Teambuilding is usually a time intensive process where builders can spend hours on a single team perfecting it. However, recently I've really enjoyed something I've dubbed as "speed building" where you spend 5-7 minutes building a team before you play your tour match. This makes for fun teams that usually end up having some flaws that you have to play around. It requires knowledge of the tier an the skills to battle with an imperfect team, this isn't for the feint of heart.

Rules: PM me after the round starts for a Pokemon from the ORAS NU Viability Rankings somewhere between the B+ - S ranks. You will then have 7 minutes to build a team before you start your match. This will be a 32 man tournament (if we get that many) as to keep the time reasonable. If you do not use the Pokemon I gave you to build around you will be dq'd. This will be repeated every round.

Post "in" to participate
Send a PM to "Montsegur" on Showdown when you win your match, losers need not PM as it could cause confusion.
**Please join smogtours server to participate in today's tour: http://smogtours.psim.us/.


Stay on the server until you're out of the tournament. If you leave before then, you will be disqualified.

General Smogon Tour Rules
  • You must have a Smogon forum account to sign up for a Smogon Tour tournament.
  • When the tour registration begins, sign up at the Smogon Tour section of the Smogon forums. The number of spots available for registration will vary week to week based on user activity at the time. It is up to the discretion of the host when to close sign-ups. If you do not make the cut-off, you can still sign up as a substitute player if a player does not show up.
  • Substitute players will only be applied in the first round, if at all.
  • You must use your forum nickname as your Pokemon Showdown! nickname in order to play.
  • If you have signed up successfully, you must stay for the entire tournament unless you have lost.
  • If a match is deemed to be taking too long by the host, the host will determine the winner based on the current advantage between the players.
  • You may change teams between rounds without penalty.
  • Do not hassle the host(s) of the current tournament.
Smogon Tour Battling Rules
  • TIMER REQUIRED! PM me if your opponent times out, and you will get the win. DO NOT allow your opponents to play after they time out!
  • Species Clause. A player cannot have two of the same Pokémon on their team. For example, a player cannot have two Koffings on his or her team.
  • All tiers are based on Smogon Tiers. The current status of the appropriate standard ladder will function as the prevailing tier list. If you have any question about whether a particular Pokemon is banned or not in any particular tier, reference the "ban list" of the appropriate ladder available on the Shoddy Battle server. This is not confusing. There will be no exceptions.
  • Sleep Clause. A player cannot put two or more different opposing Pokémon to sleep using attacks that induce sleep to opposing Pokémon.
  • Evasion Clause. A player cannot increase their pokémon's evasion stat with a move that specifically increases evasion. Items or indirect boosts do not break this clause.
  • OHKO Clause. Players cannot use moves that have a chance of instantly KO opposing Pokémon. For example, Horn Drill is an illegal move to have on a Pokémon's move set.
  • Self-KO Clause. Players cannot use moves such as Explosion or Selfdestruct that force a tie. If a move that has recoil damage causes a tie, the user of the move is the winner.

grats to Omfuga for winning.

This was actually a lot of fun to host, I think I need to prearrange the Pokemon I'll be handing out to make it run smoother but for the first one I think it was p successful. I'll be making some changes and then might host another one in a couple of weeks, thanks to everyone who participated.
