The Suuuuper Monotype Tournament!
 

Monotype is a meta where you must build a team with each Pokemon sharing a common type. So, build your teams carefully, as there are many different strategies and playstyles you could utilize!


Tournament Special Rules:
  • Best of 3, Single Elimination
  • You may switch the type of your team between rounds.
  • Both single and dual-typed Pokémon are allowed. The shared type does not have to be the Pokemon's primary type.
  • In the case of Mega Evolutions, the typing of the regular form of the Pokémon is what counts. For example, Gyarados is a Water/Flying type, so even though Mega Gyarados is Water/Dark it can still be used on a Flying team. Following the same rule, Mega Gyarados cannot be used on a Dark team because regular Gyarados is not Dark type.


General Rules:
  • Baton Pass Clause: Limit one Pokémon knowing Baton Pass.
  • Swagger Clause: Swagger is banned.
  • Same Type Clause: Pokémon in a team must share a type.
  • Species Clause: A player cannot have two of the same Pokémon on their team. For example, a player cannot have two Koffing on his or her team.
  • Sleep Clause: A player cannot put two or more different opposing Pokémon to sleep using attacks that induce sleep to opposing Pokémon.
  • Evasion Clause: A player cannot increase their Pokémon's evasion stat with a move that specifically increases evasion. Items or indirect boosts do not break this clause.
  • OHKO Clause: Players cannot use Horn Drill, Guillotine, Sheer Cold, or Fissure in any of their Pokémon's movesets.
  • Battle Timeout: If a player exhausts the timer, he/she loses.
  • Moody Clause: The ability Moody is banned from play.
  • Endless Battle Clause

I'm afraid you would of need to be active for a little longer on the forums to be able to join as we're counting on activity here. </3

As for everyone else, the pairings are up for Round one:

Deadline is a week from now, July 15th. We'll start the next round if everyone can finish their matches before that, so please contact your opponent ASAP! Contact me if there's any questions/concerns.

The GooeyGoodra July 8th, 2016 6:22 AM

Looks like we're against each other in the first round. Add me when you're ready.

ddrox13 July 8th, 2016 7:23 AM

Should I be worried about my opponent this round? Nah.

Horrible name puns aside, contacting my opp now

EDIT: Nah probably should have won that, but there advantages to having multiple teams ready for this tour. 2-1 to me, GGWP Nah, game 3 was way closer than a direct counter-match should have been.

FireSnow July 9th, 2016 11:17 AM

I'd say this could've gone better, especially that last match...I knew I should've gone with my Water team for the second round....Aww well though, gg Archy, It was a good time. Good luck the rest of the way man!

First foray into monotype battling grade = D (could've been worse xD)
