The Official Glyx

Banned deucer.


Welcome to the 1v1 Banhappy Tournament!
Tournament Rules:
  • General tournament rules and regulations can be found here.
  • The banlist for this tournament is the same as the US/UM 1v1 ladder on the Smogon University server of Pokemon Showdown, and can be found here.
  • Best of five, single elimination.
  • If metagame changes occur during the middle of a round, they will take effect in the subsequent round.
  • Battles must take place on Pokemon Showdown!.
  • Do not make baseless activity posts; get in contact with your opponent and report missed times / scheduling issues only.
  • Replays are required.
Special Rules:
  • In your signup post, you must also include one single thing that you'd like banned for the tournament.
    • Note: Bans last for the entire duration of the tournament
    • Bans can only be a single entity: e.g. one item, one ability, one move, one pokemon, etc. NOT an entire category, like Fire types, Berries, Z-moves, etc.
  • With each round you win, you must also post another ban for the next round.
    • After taking into consideration the chaos of ban changes that occurred during signups, bans are now final as soon as I add them to the list, in the interest of not allowing people to change their bans at the last minute before deadline.
  • Not adhering to the banlist will result in that battle being counted as a loss, or a tie if both players ignore the banlist.
    • If a game in a series is ruled as a tie, then the players involved will be required to reschedule in order to replay the tied games, adhering to the banlist this time.

The deadline for Round 1 is July 5th at 8 PM EST/EDT Time (GMT - 4)
(The Round is longer than a week in the interest of allowing players time to teambuild, on account of the special rules in place.)

  • With each round you win, you must also post another ban for the next round.
    • After taking into consideration the chaos of ban changes that occurred during signups, bans are now final as soon as I add them to the list, in the interest of not allowing people to change their bans at the last minute before deadline.
  • Not adhering to the banlist will result in that battle being counted as a loss, or a tie if both players ignore the banlist.
    • If a game in a series is ruled as a tie, then the players involved will be required to reschedule in order to replay the tied games, adhering to the banlist this time.

Banned deucer.
Note: Salient did the big confuse and changed his ban again after having already changed it, this time without posting that he changed it.
Choice Band is now re-banned, in place of Leftovers now being freed.
The ban change took place prior to 1PM, so I'll let it slide, but be sure to shame Salient as brutally as you'd like-

  • Replays are required.
Since the rules of this tour are very particular, I need replays in order to verify that the banlist was followed.
E: you also didn't post a new ban for R2 like you were supposed to, smh

Predictions for round 1. I am not in the tour, so I am about as unbiased as it gets, Predictions are based off of tournament results if available and if none are available replays. There are notes on how I made my predictions. If I missed something or am just an idiot please feel free to correct me.
Stealthbomber16 vs Sificon
I dont know either of these people so Sificon i guess, not enough replays from what I hav
Scraftionite vs Boat (phiwings99)
Boat ezpz
SandCastles vs Mubs21/Pokesartoolcay
Pokesartoolcay, Just off of what replays I could find.
SolarflareRo vs Joker 1v1
Joker 1v1, but close to 50/50
Synonimous vs M24
Synonmous, just because I haven't seen M24 play
roanba vs WhalemanCheng
Roanba, but there isn't much to go off of here
Alakazam vs Cheese5555
Alakazam, although Cheeze is a good player, TDA has proven his skill several times
Hijasu vs I'm actually Cash
Cash off of tour results
Ape711 vs TheSealGoesMeow
Ape711, although this is another close matchup
Infectrix vs pqs
Pqs, although there is next to nothing to go off of
Venom14916 vs AllFourtyOne
AllFourtyOne, he has some forum of results in events
aaee vs TheShadowClaw
TSC is a great player and a great teambuilder, so I belive he is favored.
alive vs ayedan
Ayedan is one of the best tour players I have met, however seeing as there is no way to scout opponents beforehand alive might be able to finesse a win, overall I still favor ayedan.
aqh vs Jirachirelia
Aqh, but this is another match up that is hard to predict because of the lack of replays
Jad Yazbeck vs CKBTW
I have no idea who either of these people are, so Jad Yazbeck because i like his name
ryyjyywyy vs RaJ.Shoot
ryyjyywyy, Ryy is a great team builder and I believe that might be more important then being a great player, but raj is not out of the question
Dragonmirror vs WilliamTheo13
DragonMirror based off of results
Kaif vs WailJesus
Kaif, but this match is another one to watch, 2 players who have proven themselves in tours, This is and jamez v freddy kyoger are going to be the 2 matches that are pretty much 50/50
ThePanthar vs Wrath of Alakazam
ThePanthar, From what I have gathered ThePanther appears to be a better player.
stableprince569 vs Chrispy Burns
Prince has proven him self time and time again in tours, and Is favored here
lost heros vs sohoodbruh
lost heros, but only because I cannot find anything telling about sohoodbruh
Shyom vs pazza
Its a shyom that i think pazza will lose
flamingfearow vs ForeverFlame
no idea who either of these people are, so flamingfearow from what i have seen of a few replays
AltCauseImInsecure vs FalconFlameDracod
FalconFlameDracod, but a close matchup, this one is most likely
JediR vs Scary Midget
JediR no questions asked
Elements 101 vs pulsar512b
Elements 101, He is a decent player from what I have seen
motogp vs THIS MACHINE
motogp, just based off of tour results
Maki's Fox vs ThatCabbageGuy
No idea who either are, and I cant make a decent determination off of replays
Salient vs Tom842
No idea who either are, and I cant make a decent determination off of replays
DezShizzels vs dom
This is very close but i expect dom to come out on top.
GeneralGunderson vs Haki
General should be able to win game one, but I would not be surprised to se a reverse sweep from Haki
Jamez155 vs Freddy Kyogre
I think Jamez155 is slightly favored but these are 2 excellent tourny players, and I would not be surprised to see a Freddy Kyogre come out on top in game 5, regardless this is a game to watch.
Poison Adhesive vs bye
I think bye will win. See you round 2 Poison
