SIGN UPS ARE: OPEN FOR 1 PERSON TO FILL IN!

ROUND 1 IS UP! Once you have found out who your opponent is, message them and work out a suitable time to battle. If your opponent is not active for a long time or makes no effort to communicate with you then they will automatically lose and receive -2 points. PLEASE VM ME ALL RESULTS! If you have any further questions, PM me!


ROUND 1:

GALLADE:
Jimmyray vs k-van
Winner: Jimmyray
Eleken vs RedWar
Winner: Eleken (due to inactive opponent)
GROUDON:
Hectic vs Mozarch4
Winner: Mozarch4
Dusknoirs vs XAndyyX ss
Winner: Dusknoirs

GARCHOMP:
ShinyUmbreonCZ vs luigi90210
Winner:
yuki3056 vs Cowboy Brianine
Winner:

GOLEM:
Dark sandslash vs Venzeron
Winner: Venzeron (Due to inactive opponent)
staryu_beast vs Nakuzami
Winner: staryu_beast



How it works:
There will be 16 participants, each of whom will be designated into one of 4 groups, taking into account your time zone:

GROUP GALLADE
1 Jimmyray 2
2 Eleken 2
3 RedWar -2
4 k-van -2
GROUP GROUDON
1 Mozarch4 2
2 Dusknoirs 2
3 Hectic -2
4 XAndyyX ss -2
GROUP GARCHOMP
1 luigi90210 0
2 yuki3056 0
3 Cowboy Brianine 0
4 ShinyUmbreonCZ 0
GROUP GOLEM
1 Venzeron 2
2 staryu_beast 2
3 Nakuzami -2
4 Dark sandslash -2


Once each of these groups has four members, they each will play every other member of that group TWICE. For a win you get 2 points, and for a loss you get –2 points. I will update the tables after each round. I would appreciate it if both battlers left a message on my profile to let me know who won.

- If 2 battlers contradict eachother, neither will get the point unless someone can prove who won. Intentionally disconnecting will result in automatic loss, but if it is accidental the battlers may play the game again. If connection problems reoccur, with the permission of both battlers I will award them each 1 point.

- After all 6 fixtures have been played by every member; the 2 members with the most points in each group will proceed to the knockout stages. If there is a group where 2nd and 3rd are tied then they will have to battle again to decide who proceeds. Knockouts are determined by 1 match only.

This is 5th gen battling! The rules are standard Smogon rules.

The following are banned: Mewtwo, Lugia, Ho-oh, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Deoxys(Normal & Attack formes), Dialga, Palkia, Giratina(all formes), Manaphy, Shaymin(Sky forme only), Darkrai, Arceus, Reshiram, Zekrom, Kyurem, Keldeo, Meloetta, Genesect

-Moody Ability is not allowed
-Do not have Drizzle and Swift Swim Abilities on the same team
-Chandelure with the Shadow Tag ability is banned

Standard clauses:

Sleep Clause: No two Pokemon of the same side should be asleep at the same time. Exceptions being Rest, and "no other choice" situations(ie. Effect Spore ability, or getting Encored on Hypnosis).

Evasion Clause: No use of moves that alter the ability to hit with attacks. This includes Flash, Double Team, & Sand-Attack. This does not include Acupressure and Metronome, which could randomly increase evasiveness

OHKO Clause: No using Guillotine, Horn Drill, Fissure, or Sheer Cold. Destiny Bond and Perish Song are allowed

Hax Item Clause: No using hold items that rely on luck. Hax Items include Lax Incense, King's Rock, Brightpowder, Razor Claw, Scope Lens, and Quick Claw

Species Clause: No two Pokemon of the same species on the same team. This does not apply to those in the same evolutionary line

Battles must be held with all Pokemon at level 100 or level 50

Singles 6v6

Wonder launcher NOT ALLOWED.


-PRIZES- (DONATIONS ARE GRATEFULLY ACCEPTED)
This is how the prizes will work: Whoever gets 1st place will receive an UT Quirky Aura Mew. Also, there are three other way giveaways which are as follows:
- SHINY EV’D JOLLY FLYGON
- SHINY EV’D ADAMANT METAGROSS
- EV’D ADAMANT SCIZOR

Now the winner will get to pick which of these they want with along with the Mew, the runner up will pick next and the third place person will get the remaining prize.

I am hoping to have the sign ups complete by 08/05/2011 but if we do not have enough I will have to allow more time. Also, when each member posts to join please leave your FC and the city you live (for matchup purposes) in so I can copy it and put it in the initial post for easy access.

@Dark sandslash and man you guys have been added!

@Star Flame - Yes, but to be honest I wouldn't advise joining unless you have some experience. Of course you are free to join but not knowing anything about WiFi battling says to me you're going to be 6-0'd by EV trained teams! Of course, though - if you want to join you are more than welcome!

It says all battles must be held at 50 or 100. Well, 100 is not possible in Gen V and 50 is only possible in flat battle, which means that you can only use 3 pokemon. So, will this tournament be held at flat battle, or unrestricted (meaning there is no level scaling, but you can use a full team of 6 pokemon)?

Well what I'm suggesting by

'Battles must be held with all Pokemon at level 100 or level 50

Singles 6v6'

is that it is singles 6v6 open level battle with both players pokemon at level 50 or level 100. But, for example, if somebody has a level 99 pokemon and they are happy to use it in a level 100 battle, that's fine.

why not i should at least try for a mew or even a flygon
