    PCL Championship II: Week 2

    Now we're onto week 2. Good luck to everyone! Please don't forget to schedule your matches with a specific time. For those who sat out on week 1:
    The central event for the League is the PCL Championship, a 6-week competition to determine who is the strongest clan in the League. The winner of this competition is crowned PCL Champion and retains the title until defeated by another clan in the next iteration of the Championship. The forum splash at the top of the PCL sub-forum will indicate the current PCL Champion. The Championship is broken up into two parts.

    Clan War Round-Robin: The first 3 weeks of the PCL Championship are a clan war round-robin where the clans face each other in a series of clan wars. Each week, 5 of the 6 clan members will participate, with the clan head deciding who will sit out. No member can sit out more than once. With the help of the PCL organizers, the clan heads will agree on individual match-ups. All players will then have 1 week to complete their matches. Each clan's win total—the relevant statistic for playoff seeding—are displayed on the PCL sub-forum splash.

    Seeded Playoff: After 3 weeks of clan wars, the clan with the lowest win total is eliminated from contention. The clans with the 2nd and 3rd highest win totals then compete in a clan war where the winner advances to Finals where they then face the clan with the highest win total. Both the Semifinal and Final clan wars feature best of 3 matches. The winner of the Final is crowned PCL Champion. Members of the PCL Champion clan will have a trophy featured on their Pokemon Showdown username until their clan is unseated.

    Rules


    • All battles are to be done in the OU format on the PokéCommunity's battle server. (If both players agree to play a different format, they are allowed to do so, but it must be mutually agreed upon and the format must be one of the following: Ubers, UU, RU, NU, PU, or LC.)
    • All matches are best of one. You only have to do one battle for each week.
    • Post the battle replay of your match in this thread.
    • ATTENTION: Please schedule the match with your opponent via profile/visitor messages as soon as possible, then post the updates regarding your match in this thread. Inactivity or ignoring your opponent's messages may result in your opponent being given the win.
    • Read this thread for the full scheduling procedure. If you fail to follow the procedure, you won't be getting an activity win.
    • You can find your opponent's profile and time zone in the Clan Directory, but be sure to double check the time zone with your opponent!
    • Clan leaders can sub players by hiring mercenaries, which is done through the Mercenary Hiring thread.
    • There will be no extensions. We were firm on this point last time and we will be firm on it again for this PCL Championship.

    As always, you may ask your clan for battling and team building advice in your clan's thread or Skype chat. You could regularly visit the battle server and ask for help there, especially if one of your clan mates are online. Check out PC's Battling & Team Building Resources, as well as the Team-Building Workshop.

    Match-Ups

    The deadline is Thursday, May 5th at 11:59 PM ET. HOWEVER, we will be posting the next week's match-ups on May 2nd, one week from right now. For this reason, it is strongly recommended that you try to complete your match by the "soft deadline" of the 2nd, but we will not enforce the deadline or make activity decisions until the aforementioned May 5th deadline. Again, there will be no extensions.

  • Nice work, everyone. I wanted to make note of the fact that this is the first PCL week ever with no activity decisions, which is excellent. Keep it up!
