    [PokeCommunity.com] Battle Bash

    Battle Bash
    Battle Bash is a tournament where players get points for battling other PokéCommunity members on Pokémon Showdown. Any type of 6v6 or 4v4 battles are welcome, including Fortune Cup battles! All you have to do is make a post to sign up, include your Showdown usernames, and report your battles in this thread (preferably as replays). Add yourself to the "Battlers" role in PokéCommunity's Discord server to get pinged when people want to battle. You can find people to battle by either posting in this thread or pinging everyone yourself (send a Discord message with @Battlers).

    Showcased Formats
    There are showcased formats every 3 days. If you battle in the showcased format, you will get an extra 30% bonus in points. The showcased format changes at exactly midnight (EDT / GMT -4).

    October 9th - 11th: Gen 8 Random Battle
    October 12th - 14th: Gen 8 OU
    October 15th - 17th: Gen 8 Monotype
    October 18th - 20th: BDSP OU
    October 21st - 23rd: Little Cup

    Suggest any formats you'd like to see for the last two, and I'll make a poll.

    Points Breakdown
    3v3 and 1v1 battles are disallowed because it would complicate the points breakdown.

    Battles with the opposing Get-Together team
    60 per win / 30 per loss

    Battles with the same Get-Together team
    30 per win / 15 per loss

    To incentivize team-building formats and reward time spent making teams, random battles receive a 30% reduction in points. In the interest of being as fair as possible, decimal values are not rounded or truncated.

    Live Tournaments
    I'll occasionally try hosting live elimination tournaments on PokéCommunity's Discord server, usually during the weekends in my time zone (EDT / GMT -4). Any battles done for these tournaments receive a 30% bonus. Add yourself to the "Battlers" role to get pinged when these tournaments occur. Feel free to send me a message if you want a live tournament at a particular time.

    Just to clarify, there's a 30% reduction on Randbats, so it'll cancel out the 30% featured bonus and leave you with 30 each for the battles with Aquacorde (150 as the total).

    You have a typo on the last battle: you won it. Please fix that so that I don't accidentally count it as a loss for you while double-checking!

    I added the suggested formats in a poll, along with a few more. Please vote for the formats that you want to see featured for the last 6 days of the event! I'll pick the two formats with the most votes, using RNG to decide any tiebreakers.

    I will advise that Piers Nivans, due to the unicode 'a', comes up as "Piers Nivns".

    Putting in my Fortune Cup battles too after seeing someone else has, should all be in this post:


    Points total = 1105.5 currently

    Fortune Cup Battles:
    Spoiler:

    Total: 300
     
    Little Cup was the 1st pick from the poll. BDSP OU and Monotype Random Battle were tied for the 2nd pick. I used an RNG to decide between the two, and the result was BDSP OU! Since Little Cup was the most popular, it'll be the final showcased format.
     
    I forgot to mention this in the OP: the rewarded Get-Together points will be the same as Fortune Cup:

    Participation (at least three battles): 10 pts
    Third Place: 25 pts
    Second Place: 50 pts
    First Place: 100 pts
