I live very close to Phoenix, Arizona. I might consider going, but I'm not sure if it's worth the hassle.
Add me, as I will be attending. :)
1) Yes. EVs count for all pokemon. You just won't have their full effects. At level 50, ~8 EVs = 1 stat point
2) It helps
3) You bring 6, though you only get 4 in battle
4) Somebody else should answer this.
5) They have IVs (all pokemon do >_>). You can EV train a level 50 too; just fight low leveled pokemon so that you don't level up, and when you're done deposit it in the PC. Exit, withdraw, and vuala. So in other words yes.
6) Yes. You can find them here, though the jist is:
~Species Clause
~Item Clause
~Name Clause (two pokemon cannot have same name; pokemon cannot be nicknamed other species names, like Gliscor named Lucario; no inappropriate names)
Ban list can be found in the link and original post.

Banned deucer.
This is in my backyard.
Also looking for people in the area interested in carpooling with me (I have a car) to go to Cali so I can save on gas.

Sorry if this has already been answered, but I just now realized that Latias and Latios are legal...is Soul Dew legal and effective? I ask the "effective" question because I know that in the Battle Tower, Soul Dew is legal but doesn't work...
According to the rules, you may use any item (to be held) except for Soul Dew and berries #62-64. However, there are no broken items in this metagame besides Soul Dew, and berries #62-64 are (as of now) unobtainable in Europe, so it would be unfair to Europeans if other countries had an advantage via earlier events. Sacred Ash isn't broken, because it does not activate if held. If it did, that would be an unfair item.
It's OK. I will be taking 1st, so you only have to compete for 2nd-4th :-p
They are Custap, Jaboca(?), and Rowap. Rowap and Jaboca(?) are unobtainable until the 12th movie comes out in Japan, but Custap was given with Movie Regigigas and TRU Regigigas. Europe didn't get its Regigigas event, so Custap is unobtainable there unless you trade over wifi. PCI (Pokemon Company International, becuase PUI and Pokemon UK merged) doesn't think it's fair that Japan and America get the item easily, while people in Europe never actually got it.
^It is TPCi (The Pokemon Company International)
I'd assume it'll state European versions of Diamond and Pearl, for the UK Tournament. Remember, we are apparently not allowed to use Pokémon Platinum here. I wouldn't worry about Move Tutors though, I'm pretty sure they'll be allowed.
Hopefully we'll be able to use US versions at the UK Tournament though, there's really no difference between them (I have a US Diamond version and EUR Diamond and Pearl versions).
It has been posted for a while, you should realy read before posting. this question has already been answered

"Tournament Participants should prepare their POKÉMON® Platinum (Pokémon® Diamond or Pokémon® Pearl for European Qualifiers)"
I was using the link in the first post, meh maybe I clicked the wrong one. Thanks for the clarification.
You mean second I think. :P We all know who will be taking the first spot. ;) so, he has to fight for 3rd or 4th instead.
