I don't think I'll be entering this tournament, as I don't really know where to begin to set up a doubles team or strategy, and I'm still working out the kinks in my singles team. However, with winter break about the begin, I'll be going on breeding binge, so I'd be happy to help sponsor this tournament, if you'd like. With what, I don't know yet, but I'm open to suggestions if you would prefer something in particular.

I'm not going to breed a team specifically for doubles, Kiga. If you have the time, you should definitely join-- especially if we're short a person. As long as you're not expecting to win, it would be fun, right? You could still sponsor, too, I would assume.

I'm in. I haven't done doubles in forever so it could be rough FC is 3609-1673-6732 and in game name is Darren. Also, where can we find the Smogon Pokebank OU bans and clauses? I searched Smogon but couldn't find it.

This is the current banlist from their site: http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/of ... t.3491371/Clauses are a bit more universal, but show up when you start a battle on showdown.

Bah. My doubles team is still a work-in-progress, and won't be ready until Pokebank is out. How many more of these tournaments will you be organizing over the coming weeks anyway? I'd love to participate in singles.

I haven't heard from Nati in about a week, so I don't know what's going on.

Nor have I via PM, so with mod approval. I would like to request giving Uber the win if nothing happens by the end of the week.

Do you think an Ice Beam would have killed your Amoongus if I had went for it instead of Earth Power?

252 SpA Life Orb Sheer Force Nidoking Ice Beam vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Amoonguss: 299-354 (69.2 - 81.9%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Black Sludge recovery 252+ SpA Life Orb Sheer Force Nidoking Ice Beam vs. 252 HP / 0 SpD Amoonguss: 328-387 (75.9 - 89.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Black Sludge recovery
Your only chance at an OHKO would be Modest+Specs but even that would be 25%. Also I'm not sure if you would of Ko'd Doublade with Ice Beam.
252+ SpA Life Orb Sheer Force Nidoking Ice Beam vs. 128 HP / 128 SpD Eviolite Doublade: 65-77 (22.3 - 26.4%) -- 10.6% chance to 4HKO

Really Stupid question. How do I view battle Vids in Gen 6, I kinda want to see how this went down. OO
And If Chef wants, his prize can be a random Eevee!

It's definitely not a stupid question, and battle vids aren't the only cool thing introduced in Generation 4 that I can't find in X/Y. I can't find Geonet either. I want to see where I got Pokemon from around the world
