Hello everyone!
I will be hosting RoAPL VII alongside Kris and Perish Song. The format will be the same as last year: 2x Gens 1-5 OU, meaning 10 slots, with 8 teams. You will have until the 13th of March to apply for a spot alongside an 'assman' of your choice, as the chosen managers will be posted here later that day. Player Signups will start on March 14th and will last until 26th March, with the auction happening either on March 27th or 28th. As some people were curious, managers and their assmans still cannot play.

Example signup

Code:
Team Name: Sunyshore Skitties
Bio: I won RoAPL as a manager. I've shown I can do it. I also won a 64-man RBY tournament, and went 10-6 in SPL over 2 seasons.
Commitment: We will be active throughout the whole tournament and will, without fail, send our team lineups in time.
Assistant Manager (or Manager): @Kris

Criteria for Team Names:

  • Same letter must be at the start of each word (initials) [Sunyshore Skitties]
  • First word = first word of a pokemon location [Sunyshore]
  • Second word = pokemon name plural [Skitties]
  • KK initials are banned.
If you want to take up on a team from last year (which we prefer to establish franchises and retains), just use its name and it will be all good!
Have fun everyone! Feel free to ask any of the hosts if you have questions.

Team Name: Sunyshore Shaymins
Assistant Manger: Vulpix03
Bio: Was on the Shaymins for 2 years, and got promoted to assistant manager last iteration after the initial assistant manager got banned. I have co captained Asia in WCOP. I am very in touch with current ADV metagame and community, and have played official ADV games. Vulpix has experience in multiple official tours and played for the Shaymins last year too. We believe we are a good duo to continue taking this franchise forward.

We both have great experience in oldgens especially in bw dpp and gsc for him and adv dpp rby for me. We know a lot about oldgen playerbase and we always build a good atmosphere in our teams.

I wanna add that i did 8-1 in spl once, and that i almost repeated this feat for the latest edition of it. Like i know its showing im 2-7, but if you swap those numbers i believe you will get impressed and will notice that everything is based in angles, perspective and points of view nowdays, be it on smogon, Instagram photos or whatever. Im p sure ima and I are the best options you could ask for to manage in this prestigious tournament and you would never regret picking us.

Illegal team name ex BIGs brother! Read the rules!
 
Team Name: Slateport Slaking ( he cant stay. RIP. Sunshine )

Bio: Managed in UPL, where we did finale. Also managed a lot of french tours, at least 5 of them. I was also being part of the Sharks last spl, where I was helping in a lot of tier. I'm also having knowledge in all tier, and aware of the playerbase in each of them. For my results as a player, I'm known to be a very versatile player, which globaly end in a positive record in any tier I'm playing, 80% of the time. My co-cap, Sharow , is complementing my weakness, which would be a specialisation in a tier.
Commitment: We will be active throughout the whole tournament and will, without fail, send our team lineups in time.
Assistant Manager (or Manager): Sharow

Logo in coming, I keep this one there under this time tho. Look at how beautifull that Slaking is.

This is also a team name that doesn’t follow the rules. Does anyone actually read the rules?
