PokéCommunity Get-Together 2009 Wi-Fi OU Tournament [Sign-ups go here!]
 
http://i25.*.com/2em05e9.png

***This is NOT the official thread. This is only for SIGN-UPS.


We figured the tournament would go more smoothly if the sign-ups were held before the Get-Together. xP

Tournament Rules

☆ First and foremost, abide to the PokeCommunity Forum-wide Rules. Otherwise you're uncool, man.

You MUST own a copy of Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum with Wi-Fi capabilities in order to sign up first. This basically means you must have a wireless router for your DS (or a Nintendo Wi-Fi USB) and internet access. If you don't have a wireless router, you can pick it up at RadioShack, Circuit City, and the like.

☆ The following clauses are in effect throughout the match:

Sleep Clause: No more than one Pokemon should be asleep on the same team. Exceptions include Pokemon that put themselves to sleep using REST, and if a Pokemon is stuck in a situation where you have no other choice but to put the opponent to sleep (Examples: Effect Spore, Encored Hypnosis)

Evasion Clause: The use of attacks that tamper with a Pokemon's evasion or accuracy is prohibited (Examples: Double Team, Sand-Attack). Exceptions may include Acupressure and Metronome, which may alter evasiveness and accuracy by chance.

OHKO Clause: Moves that always OHKO the opponent when the move connects are not to be used. Those moves are Fissure, Sheer Cold, Horn Drill, and Guillotine.

Species Clause: No using two of the same Pokemon on the same team (Example: Having two Metagross on the same team is prohibited).

Hax Item Clause: Items that rely on luck to work are prohibited. (Examples: Items like King's Rock, Quick Claw, Focus Band, Scope Lens, etc. are banned)

☆ The team that you enter with must NOT contain any Pokémon in the Uber tier. This means that you cannot enter this tournament with any of the following on your team:

Mewtwo
Mew
Wynaut
Wobbuffet
Lugia
Ho-oh
Latios
Latias holding Soul Dew
Groudon
Kyogre
Rayquaza
Deoxys in all Formes
Garchomp
Dialga
Palkia
Giratina in both Formes
Manaphy
Shaymin in Sky Forme
Darkrai
Arceus

Note: Shaymin in Land forme is allowed, as well as Latias not holding the Soul Dew.


☆ All battles are to be held over Wi-Fi as Single Battles with levels at 50 or 100.

☆ If two participants conclude the match with conflicting stories, both will be disqualified.

☆ Hacked Pokemon are NOT allowed here. This includes Pokemon with stats that are higher than possible, perfect 252 EVs in all stats, impossible abilities, impossible moves and eggmove combinations, and the like. If you are found out to be using hacked Pokemon, you will be immediately kicked out of the tournament in addition to any punishment that the staff give.

☆ If one participant is unable to battle for a certain round, they will be disqualified and their opponent will advance. If both are found to be unavailable, both will be disqualified and the opponent in the next round gets a free pass. Note: Under the circumstance that your opponent is a no-show, you must post here notifying us. Otherwise, we will just assume you both are no-shows.

☆ The tournament will be a 32 man elimination. Once you're out, you're out.

8:00 PM Thursday, August 20, the match-ups for Round 1 will be decided. Then at 9:00 PM the Get-Together (and this Tourney) will begin and we'll have until 8:59 PM Monday, August 24 to get this Tourney over with. We'll give each Round until 9:00 PM of that day to be completed, but if all Round battles are done earlier, that would be greatly appreciated.

I'm pretty sure it will be. 90% of the people who've signed up I know are regulars on the battle thread, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem unless the next 16 people who sign up happen to all be inactives :P

World King August 17th, 2009 10:06 AM

Of course; I'll make sure of that. Epic acitveness is my back-up usertitle.

World King August 19th, 2009 5:59 PM

Yay for you, or being our 31st and last participant required to complete the 32 ones we need. Our list is full for now, people.

But remember that someone may drop out for reasons known to them before the Tourney starts, so keep on the lookout for an open spot.

Denzer August 19th, 2009 6:29 PM

When will round 1 be up???

Pave Low August 20th, 2009 12:13 AM

I cant wait for the start of the tourney

World King August 20th, 2009 12:19 AM

Ok, people. Now that we got all 32 participants, it's time I get everything prepared.

Thursday, August 20 at 8PM the match-ups for Round 1 will be decided. Then at 9PM, as previously stated, the Get-Together (and this Tourney) will begin and we'll have until Monday, August 24 at 8:59PM to get this Tourney over with. We'll give each Round until 9PM of that day to be completed, but if all Round battles are done earlier, that would be greatly appreciated.
(All times listed above are in PST [GMT-8])

Thank you for your attention. Get training and prepare for epic battles!
~W. K.

Pave Low August 20th, 2009 12:47 AM

How are you gonna decide whos VS who?

World King August 20th, 2009 12:26 PM

I'll be separating people with closer timezones in groups, and randomize them within those groups. That way, people who can be almost online at the same time will find it easier to battle. After Round 1, timezones won't matter.

BTW, later on, I'll post the Tournament thread in which battles and stuff will take place; and once that's posted, we'll have this one locked away.

Pave Low August 20th, 2009 12:27 PM

Im on until like, 9PM!!!!!!!!!!!

World King August 20th, 2009 1:49 PM

I've just sent PMs to each and every participant, as a way to reduce the number of unnotified no-shows.

Remember: Each Round will only have a limit time of a day to be completed (SemiFinals and the Final will be on the same day) so there won't be that much time. Let's get ready, everyone!

Denzer August 20th, 2009 5:26 PM

Lies. I didn't receive a PM. >_>. Rofl at you ignoring me XD.

Yeah, give thanks to my evil randomizer for all the match ups, FLARE.

BTW, as promised, at 9:00 PM GMT-8 Sharp, the Tournament is officially open. Click on this unnecessarily-large link to take you there; or just visit the Get-Together 2009 Forum. Remember that Round 1 will only last as much as a day, so be sure to PM/VM/MSN/Contact your opponent as soon as you see this, and go post the results in the Tourney Thread, not in this one.

So, get ready for epic showdowns, and good luck to 99% of you!

Johnny590 August 21st, 2009 12:41 PM

I thought items relying on luck weren't allowed? :/

My opponent had a Focus Sash on his Weavile. >.>

Another thing, is having 3 of the same item on different pokemon allowed? (In this case, it was leftovers.)

Close battle, except for one little flaw:

He had a Focus Sash on his Weavile.

I thought items relying on luck weren't allowed? :/

Another thing, is having 3 of the same item on different pokemon allowed? (In this case, it was leftovers.)

A good pokemon team is one that can combat all scenarios and win. Sash is legal because it only works once and only on one condition, that the pokemon who uses it is at full health. To combat it is very easy SR, sandstorm, hail will get rid of it. You also complained to me about my pokemon having leftovers as well. There is no rule against it and it is easy to combat as well with sandstorm, hail or knock off.

Denzer August 21st, 2009 3:18 PM

The 99% means me to everyone but me.

Just as FF said, we're not using the Item Clause (no 2 of the same Items allowed), and Focus Band is the one that's not allowed here.

RosaSunglasses. August 25th, 2009 5:23 AM

who is the winner of the tourney since it seems like that the get-together is over now :/

TigerSwift August 30th, 2009 5:28 AM

Just a quick message to say sorry to everyone for not being online over the last 2 weeks or so. Work and stuff came out of the blue meaning I had to travel around with no internet. Hope everyone had a good time and hope to see you all around here in September when I get a more stable timetable!

Take Care Everyone
