4th Gen HG/SS Championship

I would like to go, but only to watch and recieve a shiny eevee.
Good luck to everyone who is entering (:
 
Closest one to me is Atlanta, but it's on the day I leave for my mission trip, which I've been waiting on all year. I think I'll deal without a shiny Eevee. Besides, I'd lose the battles. XD
 
What is the prize for the winner of this competition? I can't believe people would travel across the country for this lol.
 
New Jersey for the win~

You need to EV Train and have Rain/TR/Hail/Garchomp counters. Garchomp is one of those pokemon that is a staple for a lot of teams that aren't orientated with Weather or TR. But I think many people will be running Rayquaza for Sky Lock, including me.

Rayquaza is banned, I believe.
 
Rayquaza is banned, I believe.

That's incorrect. Per the official website:

Restricted Pokémon

During battle, a player's team of four Pokémon may not have more than two Pokémon from the list below. A player's Team Information Sheet may contain up to four Pokémon from the list below, as long as two non-restricted Pokémon are also listed on the sheet.
150 - Mewtwo
249 - Lugia
250 - Ho-Oh
382 - Kyogre
383 - Groudon
384 - Rayquaza
483 - Dialga
484 - Palkia
487 - Giratina
 
I SO wanna go, problem is, I have a game re-starting problem...

I might go to the Phoenix AZ one, since it's only like...25 minutes away from my house. You know what I'm gonna go do right now? Train my pathetically weak team into the best one in the world. Watch out, everyone! :D
 
For anyone who has participated in these events-

I use AR codes to get 200x exp from battles in my game when I need to level up pokemon quickly so I'm at the right level for whatever part of the game I'm at. If I use these pokemon, will I be disqualified since I used a code to level them up quickly?

I dont think you would be seen as you have only hacked the exp and this should have no effect on your pokemon other than it has leveled up
 
Taken from the Other Information section in the Rules and Regulations:

The use of external devices to alter the Pokémon in a player's party is expressly forbidden. Random checks will be performed throughout the tournament to determine whether or not an external device has been used to modify a player's party. Players found to have Pokémon that have been tampered with will be disqualified from the event, regardless of whether the player tampered with his or her game or received a Pokémon or item that was tampered with by someone other than the player. It is the player's responsibility to have legal Pokémon. Event officials have the final determination regarding the legality of a Pokémon.

A player should notify the staff immediately if he or she believes that there is a problem with an opponent's Pokémon. At the end of the round, all match results become final. Issues that go unreported until after the round has completed will not change the result of that match, regardless of whether there is a problem with an opponent's Pokémon.

Players and spectators are expected to demonstrate proper sportsmanship over the course of the event. A player may be disqualified from the event based on actions taken by friends or relatives who disrupt the operation of the tournament.

So my guess is; if they can detect anything altered, you can and will be disqualified even for something that doesn't affect anything aside from levels.
 
No events in Canada, that's lame... how much would I have to bribe someone to score me a shiny Eevee?
 
No events in the Midwest??? WTF?!

And no, the Indy event doesn't count as it's the National Championships... this is total BS, they couldn't give Minneapolis or Chicago or heck, even Milwaukee an event? Not all of us are able to travel cross country at the drop of a hat... :(
Day before Nationals is the Midwest's REgionals at the same place.
 
Why oh why is orlando not on there? Seriously we have about 20 convention centers here and furthermore, millions of tourists at any given time. T.T
 
If I used hacked rare candies to finish leveling off my pokemon, would that be considered as the hacking aspect?
 
It sucks how no events are in the midwest, i live in minnesota :/
 
Even though if the pokemon was transfered to a new game card?
