Umm I think the timing is incorrect as today is 4/20 and it's a Friday? Did you mean to make this Friday April 20th or Saturday April 21st and Sunday April 22nd?

Edit: Also apparently the Discord link is bad?

I've just finished my team. I'll be using a team I used to reach 1700+ on this ladder when SM came out.

Your right. Probably just an error on their part.

One question. Is the discord channel live? I tried joining it, but it said the invite was expired.

Sorry y'all! I don't know why the link expired; I set it to not do so. Try joining now!

Also, it turns out the Comp is tonight after all! Hope everyone's ready!

I'm in, but just a question, Legendary clause means I can bring pokemon like Mewtwo and Necrozma on the same team?
 
Not seeing anything on mega stones, so they're fair game? Also still getting the expired link error.

Edit: it seems only the header link to the discord is broken, not the link in the description.

Anyone who participated in this, please upload a Wingull to the GTS asking for a Lvl 91-100 Ho-Oh (scroll to the bottom of the alphabetical list and type it in if you don't have it in your Dex) and I'll send you a copy of Max. Optimizer's fabled "Fenikkusu" (details in his trade thread)! The distribution will only be live for ~24 hours, so get in quick!
