*Sorry for the delay. Had to use an outside site for voting, and then had to get my 15 posts so I could post a link.
Discussion and results will still be here, just use the address to vote.
------------------------------------------
I've seen a lot of threads about which one of Ash's pokemon is his best. Or creating his All Star team. But I am interested in finding out which one of his regional teams is the best.
To find this out I am going to use the Polls to get YOUR votes, as each team competes against another in a round robin tournament.
The Rules:
1. No Pikachu - As he is in all of Ash's regions
2. Only Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh - 4 is a nice even number. Orange Islands is a "fake" region, that only borrows pokemon from Kanto and Johto, no major team change. No Unova, because its still new and his team is still developing.
3. Six iconic pokemon from each of his regional teams have been selected. (with the exception of the Kanto region, see below for how you can help) Post regional evolutions of a regional pokemon are accepted (i.e. Phanpy to Donphan happening in Hoenn instead of Johto)
4. Each team will face off against each other team, the winner is the team with the most victories. (I.E. - Kanto vs. Johto, Kanto vs. Hoenn, Kanto vs Sinnoh, Johto vs Hoenn, Johto vs. Sinnoh, Hoenn vs Sinnoh)
5. Each round of the round robin will last one week. You will vote for the winners using the poll. However, I also encourage you to feel free to write WHY you voted the way you did as a response to this topic. If you feel so inclined perhaps you might even give a description of how the battle goes. This way you can influence your fellow voters to see your opinion.
