4th Gen PokeCommunity WiFi Tournament

[Alakazam17]

Now that Diamond and Pearl are only weeks away, I think it is about time that we have something like this set up. Chances are, most of the people reading this are able to link up wirelessly, and if not, you can still cheer on the players!

So, I was thinking of having a tournament with X number of people. Whoever wins the first round of battles goes on, until we have the Champion. ^_^

One of the problems I see with this is that I don't believe anyone other than the two participants can actually see what is going on, allowing cheaters to have a field day. So we'd need a level of trust between members. That said, I think it would be doable.

Other than that, here are a few rules I made up myself. Subject to change if I get a crowd of members wanting it as such. =P

PC WiFi Tournament Rules

1. You must have either Diamond or Pearl, with WiFi capabilities to enter. Apologies in advance for those of you outside North America & Japan.

2. You must have a team of six Pokemon, not including legendaries.

3. Any Items will be allowed.

4. Since all WiFi battles allow you to choose Pokemon levels, all battles should be held at level 50, to allow even-footing.

5. Specific battles will be chosen randomly, and will be posted here on a set day. Another set day, a DQ time as we like to call it, will be given, and I'd ask all results to be posted here before this time.

6. This before-mentioned process will repeat until we have one person left! This person will be declared the winner, and will have their name at the top of this post for all eternity! Also, they will be allowed to jump a round in future competitions and/or use a free pass to allow them to stay in the tournament after one loss. (negotiable)

Now, the rule I must add, and that I hope will never have to be enforced:

If two people finish a battle with conflicting stories, BOTH will be disqualified. Furthermore, if later on the identity of the untruthful individual is found out, he or she will be banned from all future tournaments.


So, I'm hoping we can get enough participants, so this can actually happen! Just post here saying you'd like to get added to the list, and, by the time the games come out, we should have these rules down pat. Suggestions to improve are always welcome, by the way.

That said, behold! The list:

I'd be willing to do it.
Though, I won't be able to play the game until four days after its release.
...Stupid school trips. xD

 

[Empires228]

[Alakazam17]

No problem. I'm looking at making the first set day to be late April. Not too many people will have a team of 6 level 20's come Sunday evening. XD

I'd like to join, even if i don't manage to get an america copy i still have my japanese copy to fall back on.

And just FYI, D/P wifi allows for the levels to be set to lvl 50, lvl 100, or they can be left at the levels they are in the game, theres three options to pick from.

That's the info I've been looking for, thanks. =D

I'll edit that in my first post then. ^_^

 

[Ichida]

When is this happening? If it's about a week or two after the North American release, I'd be happy to give my team some much-needed competition. Hopefully in that time I can transfer over my battlers from Emerald.

 

[Alakazam17]

I'll make the first set day as May 1st, 2007. By then we should have enough people familiar with the game, and capable of having a competitive team. On that day, I will randomly pair up people, and post these pairings here.

Sorry guys, but if you want to hold a tournament, especially under the PokéCommunity name, you will have to check it with a staff member for approval first.

After you have done so, an unlocking of this thread can be considered.
But until then,
