So, I've always wanted to do this, and now I can! We're having a Little cup people, so grab your Lvl 5 Pokemon, and get ready for one of the most unique battle scenarios out there!

Explanation/Format:
The basic premise is that everyone battles using a team of Pokemon of Level 5 who can still evolve, but have not. Pokemon who fit this description can be found here:
http://www.smogon.com/bw/metagames/lc
I will be running this tournament Swiss format, meaning that you will not be booted out upon losing a single match. If you end up losing a match, just try your hardest in all your other matches.

Rules:
This Tourney will follow the rules set by Smogon here:
http://www.smogon.com/bw/articles/bw_lc_guide
I'll give a quick run down of the core rules though, and the additional clauses I am invoking.
1. This is a WIFI tournament, so you need a Gen 5 game (Black, White, Black 2, White 2) in order to participate, as well as WIFI access.
2. All Pokemon must be Level 5.
3. All Pokemon must be in their first evolutionary stage, and be able to evolve.
4. Teams are 6 vs 6 singles, with no Wonder Launcher.
5. NO HACKING! This should be a given, but if you are caught hacking, you will be disqualified from the tournament. All hacking suspects' teams will be checked by an outside party that is not participating.
6. If you disconnect, it is up to you and your opponent how you should treat it, whether it be a rematch or one of you conceding the battle. If you cannot decide, then you will both forfeit the battle.
7. No discussing other participant's teams. You will be disqualified if you are caught doing so.
8. Sign ups will end and battling will begin Jan. 10th. Your team should be ready by this time, or you cannot participate. You have 3 days to get your battles done once match-ups are posted. Failure in completing your battle and not making a reasonable effort to schedule your battle will result in a loss. You may withdraw from the tournament at any time.
9. Clauses:
-Species Clause (Only one of each species allowed)
-Item Clause (Only one of each item allowed. The last thing we need is teams spamming Eviolite...)
-All clauses and banlists on the Smogon Little Cup rules page apply to this Tourney.
10. Have Fun!

Reporting wins/losses:
When you report your win or loss, please state what you won or lost by. Example:
Lost 0-2 against Eevee
or something like that.

#7 Squirtle ♂ (level 1)
OT: Breeder ♀ (White, 23955/22682)

If I were a teacher, I'd be forced to mark this thread with a giant F. But since I'm not, I can admit that I am highly amused and I approve. Thumbs up! Invoke the Griffinator!

Uh, I guess I'll sign up now. Haha!

Yes, sign ups are still open, but you need to use the form and sign up formally or you won't be counted.

This sounds awesome. I am probably way behind the curve in geting a team ready. However, I'd definitely watch this on a screencast! Who wants to set that up!? :rambo:

First of all, everyone else adhered to the sign up. Why should you be any different?
Second, how about you don't be rude. Yes, usernames are at the top, yes he knows, but as there is a sign up process, use it.
Third, you didn't put your FC in the first post anyway, so how should he be able to add it to the OP.

Seriously, just have some manners and respect. Otherwise you will just be denied entry to the competition.

Yours spitefully,

It shows that you payed attention and read the thread if you use the proper sign up. Plus it helps me edit you in to the thread more easily. :P
