MATCH-UPS WILL BE POSTED MAY 22nd.
PST(PACIFIC TIME ZONE) is what we are using. Match-ups and times will be determined before the day of the tournament.

You banned a whole lot of crappy items and a couple crappy pokemon. As well as some that are pretty good but not unfair good.

You also banned some statistically crappy moves. And all the most abused items, moves, ect seem to not be on the lists.

Also I'm told setting the levels to 100 forces lower levels to that stage, this true? I know I sound like I'm complaining, but I am interested.

I'm sorry I don't think I asked for any of that information, I believe I'm asking people to sign up for my tournament. Not complain about my judgement and ask questions. Those "crappy items and moves" were banned to make it fair. Just because Sneasel can use an item that increases chances of critical hits, that doesn't make it okay for a Chansey to have the same item and me not do anything about it.

It's not an unfair advantage though. I guess I shouldn't have used the word crappy, but the restriction doesn't make for a fair tournament. I'm sorry and I'm sure you're going to hate me for this, but really some of the rules don't make a lot of sense.

Evasion modifiers got nerfed after the first game.

And in all honesty, Sneasel isn't that great even with critical hits up. And chancey is better as a blissy with other items. and If someone wins with a farfetch'd they earned it

Forcus band and quick claw have a fair and low success rate.

Some of the banned pokemon aren't that great either, and mewtwo is missing from the list. I also have no idea why anyone would ban Metang.
Edit: I'm going to bed. I'm very sorry for upsetting you, I need to learn to keep some thoughts to myself, but I stand by what I've said. I do respect you and what you're trying to do.

Then stop wasting my time and never post on my thread again, unless you plan to enter. Trust me I know every single piece about this whole "format" I put together and I don't need anyone bugging me about. Everything you've said I know. These aren't all my ideas. You obviously haven't spoken with the people telling me to ban these items. Almost every competitive player I know feels that those items and moves should be left out of the game. One of the most popular pokemon servers Smogon look down upon such items I have selected to be illegal.

Quick Claw has a success rate of 24% I hardly consider that fair to low.

Can I enter the name I wanna use would have to be my screen name is that ok my info is in my sig

No problem your in.

No rayquaza?

pfft rip

its the only one thats high level

.. This is worse than mine.. You banned all legendaries and items and moves..

exactly why this fails.

...So you can only put two of the opponents pokemon to sleep at any one time?

and the winner basically wins a hacked pokemon?

I don't need you judging what I've made, your points have already been made several times and frankly it's old and annoying. People that have skill will enter this otherwise they'll quiver because they can't use their Tyranitar. Please your comments are not needed, go cry to sometone else.

This tourney seems great but could you please unban Garchomp. Garchomp is the heavy hitter on my team and i don't think i can win Without it.

Sorry man, if I unaban Garchomp I would have to unban half that list. Sorry, can't do it.

O. Ok then i'll just have to find a temporary replacement for it.

If your going to enter please leave me your name that you'll be using and friend code, you cvan give me the friend code later if you would like.

Ok. I'll give you the friend code later. The name is Roger. Also do you have every shinie.

SInce you know so much, could you please explain to me why some of your decisions were made? I don't know a whole load about pokemon and would like to learn so when I make tournaments I can use your knowledge.

I mean that sincerely by the way.

No Really, I do,

I actually think these are good decisions. I hate battling legends they are so unfair. The only rule i don't like is the Garchomp being banned but other than that good ruling. Also you spelled my name wrong. You put Rodger and it's Roger.

Oh I understand the legends, if there was one thing I could change, I wouldnt know what to choose.

But if there were a million things I could change, one would be the legendaries stats would change during play with another person.

I was wondering about salamence, who was "So lame" in the last generation, and Garchomp, who hasnt been succesfully tested in america"to the best of my knowledge that is.

I also just got finished reading about how quick klaw sukzorz and how the percent of it attacking is so low youll knever pull it off. I havent heard of those berries, so I cant ask about them, but I can ask about shaymin, which hasnt come out yet.

EVERYONE READ THIS SO I DON'T HAVE TO SAY IT FOR THE 60th TIME!!!
The method I used for banning certain pokemon is simple. I added up their base stats, if they were 600 or more. I banned them. Please post if you want to enter not ask me to justify my posts.

I wasnt questioning your posts, I was merly asking you why you picked them. :roll: totally different.

Anyways, now I know what to do if I start a tournament so thanks, and I want to sign up, but I dont know my friend code yet, is that ok?

BTW stats backwards is stats[/random]

It's fine just as long as you have one a week and a half before the tournament. I'll need the name you want me to sign you up as though.

Alkazor

curse you 7 digit name!

Phoiled again.

Sorry about the name, and thankyou.
