In! I'll take Misty please.

antemortem March 15th, 2014 10:29 AM

Awesome, that's 16 participants! Hopefully we get 24 or 32 so this tournament is all the more fun. n.n; Spread the word; there's plenty of Leaders to go around!

Any item is fair game.

Krystia March 15th, 2014 10:40 AM

So we just use the pokemon they use right ? Any move and any item is fair game ??

Other questions, when is this event host ?

The Undisputed Era March 15th, 2014 10:50 AM

I have another question, Why are Koga, Blue and Wallace missing? They're technically gym leaders.

Paige Berlitz March 15th, 2014 10:51 AM

Yay any item we want. Do we have to have the same moveset and abilities as the gym leader's pokemon in game?

^ Echoing this.

Also, can we mix and match Pokemon from different games? For instance, can I mix around with http://serebii.net/black2white2/pwt/kanto.shtml and http://www.serebii.net/heartgoldsoulsilver/gym-rematch.shtml?

psychomew2 March 15th, 2014 11:27 AM

I'm interested in trying this out. Sign me up as Norman.

Lycanroc March 15th, 2014 11:51 AM

I'm in as Maylene. Even though I'm male, I'd love to use her team.

Necrum March 15th, 2014 3:37 PM

I answered this on the server, but Koga was a leader in one game, therefore he only has three Pokemon to choose from, those being Koffing, Weezing, and Muk. Janine has at least triple that number of Pokemon to choose from. Juan was the Gym Leader after Wallace and their teams are similar, plus Wallace also only has a small Gym team to choose from. Blue is not a monotype leader and would have an advantage over everyone else.

Movesets and items are also free for you to choose from.

Yep!

Thanks for clearing the things up Solace. One More question. If we made multiple teams to try out and we have 2 that we cant decide between is it okay if we switch between those teams? (I am in this scenario)

That's fine.

Necrum March 15th, 2014 4:22 PM

In the case of Giovanni, there are a few odds and ends. Most notably, there are 3 Pokemon which he uses during the fights leading to his Gym battle, which pretty much makes his Gym battle the rematch I suppose, and I was wondering how to treat them? Kangaskhan, Persian, and Onix are the ones in lead up battles, and in HGSS he has a Honchkrow.

I thought I said somewhere (if I didn't, I apologize, I should have!) you can use any Pokemon they've used in battles, rematches, PWT, etc. except for Stadium~

Well I just figured I should ask since technically he was not acting as Gym Leader during those battles.

Paige Berlitz March 15th, 2014 4:38 PM

I wish we could act as more than one gym leader. I want to be another gym leader but I really like my gym i have now.

Shrew March 15th, 2014 6:33 PM

Thank you Paige, for notifying me about this tournament. :) I'm honestly split between whether to choose by my favorite gymleader, favorite type, or tactical advantage... I think I'm going to go for my 3rd favorite gymleader and my 2nd favorite type with little tactical advantage: Gardenia. In.

I have some questions: will there be evasion/sleep/ohko clauses? How long do we have to complete each battle by? And just to make sure about rule #2, this means I could use Rotom-Cut right? Also does rule #1 work backwards, i.e. if a flying gymleader has Gyarados, are we allowed to use pure-water Magikarp? And Water/Dark Mega Gyarados?

1) Whatever the default clauses for the OU tier on the battle server are will be active.
2) I'll state your timeframe at the beginning of each round.
3) Yes!
4) I wouldn't see the point of using, say, Nosepass instead of Probopass on Byron, but sure. Mega Evolutions are allowed as well.

Paige Berlitz March 16th, 2014 8:57 AM

Hey Solace if there is an odd member of contestants can we all or some of us get to be another gym leader to even it up?
