I would most definitely like to sign up for this one please. Just one question before we begin are you allowing the use of Skymin? If not I will still fight, just curious about that. Fc will be edited into my sig later today. I also read in your post in the tournie thread about it being only pokemon in the OU tier is that still true?

Skymin is Uber, it seems to be the general conclusion for it's tier, also as not everyone uses platinum it may be considered a disadvantage for some. (same with Rotom-A but it simply can't be used over wifi) You're free to use air slash etc. on Shaymin-L. and yes the tourney is OU-tier but BL/UU/NU pokes are more than welcome.

entering only if you play in my metronome tourney ;o

I would like to sign up please.


Just for some clarity what will the format of the battles be? 6v6?

And is Soul Dew Latias considered Uber?

Sign me up, though I might have to make some more OU pokes for mah team.



It is

lol, ok. So long as there is no species clause.



yes, 6vs6. and Latias w/soul dew is uber, without it's OU. Latios is uber both ways.

I'm in! Name: CACTUAR FC: 2793 0186 3152

And is Land Shaymin Uber?

Also can I fight EP?

Shaymin-L is UU, so it's fine.

Maybe, Battles will be chosen by random draws.



TIER LIST HERE!!!!!
So stop asking...

protip: requesting to battle someone in round one usually results in you not battling that person

Is item clause going to be in effect.

It's just that i had a closer look and dont want to find a team full of focus sashes if it isn't

I added focus sash clause. Since item clause isn't a rule everybody like to play by, and I don't want to add any big rules midway thru signups.

What is the deal with everyone hating on Sash? You don't like it, then just use Stealth Rock/Spikes/Toxic Spikes/Sandstorm/Hail/etc.

its not that i hate it, i just dont want to face an entire team holding it.

Yeah... Which is why you do what EP said in the post you quoted >.>

So the schedule is...

Round 1 May 24-May 31
Round 2 June 1- June 8
Round 3 June 9- June 16

sounds awesome can't wait.

Yup.

It seems everyone that wants to has signed up, hopefully one more person can join in and make the bracket a nice 8-4-2-1

Indeed we need one more person for an even bracket. Though if they don't I wouldn't mind having a chance at a bye .

Well, It's a 1in6 chance for you, (as I can't make myself the bye ;_;)

I guess i'll sign up

we have 8 can we close signups?

Ok, since I highly doubt anyone will join up in the next hour or so, matchups for the first round are as follows:

Shinashu Taji Vs. tpjerematic

TheolithicalVs. Cactuar

Masterchef Vs. Registeel_Rocks

vxv/ Vs. EvilPenguin


Please reply in this thread by Tuesday night showing you are aware of your match. Results can be posted here or PM'd to me.

Deadline for the first round is the night of May 31st. Brackets for round two will be posted june 1st or earlier if everyone finishes their first round matches.
