Summer Glory Festival [Serebii vs Pok?Community]

Summer Glory Festival
The competition
Assemble battlers of Pok?Community! We gather together this summer for fun to test our skills against another community. Twelve to sixteen participants will meet a player from the other community for a single elimination battle. The side with the most wins will be declared the victor of the festival! First, in order to determine fair pairings, both sides have agreed to conduct a competition to seed the players to allow for comparable players to meet in battle. Give it your all, and represent your community proudly!

Discussion with the tournaments staff on Serebii resulted in a decision to make this a 12-player competition. We currently have 9 players registered, so we only need 3 more before we can proceed with our group phase. I will continue to accept sign-ups after we reach 12 in the event that we need a substitute.

Some of their members have been in contact on here and the Discord chat. BGP_ is one of the members who will be heading the construction of Serebii's team.

Both sides agreed to only select members with join dates as recent as 4/2017 and older as an additional measure of fairness (to prevent recruitment). We still need one more member to start our group phase.

FriskInUndertalw: Welcome to PokeCommunity. The event only permits members who have been registered for at least 3 months. However, there are other exciting events coming up soon, like the PokeCommunity League that you would be interested in participating in.

Now that we have 12 players, we can proceed to the group phase. Using the PCL Elo rating (see below), I applied the top 9 players in this rankings by snaking them into our three groups. Since I was the only player without an Elo rating, I randomized the groups of myself along with two others using a random number generator to fill them out.

Since Marshadow is currently obtainable and legal in the SM OU format, you will be allowed to use it. The deadline for completing ONE match is 1 week (July 13 @ 12:00 am EDT). The deadline for completing ALL 3 matches is 2 weeks (July 20 @ 12:00 am EDT).

(All matches are best of one.)

Best of luck to everyone and have fun!

Good game Sam. Looks like I need to sharpen my game; that was a poor showing.

Serebii just got their line-up selection process underway. You can follow it in this thread if you're interested: http://www.serebiiforums.com/showth...nt-with-Pok%E9community-Summer-Glory-Festival

Edit: Marshadow is now BANNED. It will not be legal for the tournament since the only match played did not see its usage and the player base has not fully adopted it anyway.
