ADDITIONAL RULES
Read. These are very important.

• NO WEATHER! - Okay, don't shoot me. fgtron and I have discussed this and we have concluded that people will spam weather effects. As such, I am sorry to say Tyranitar, Abomasnow and Hippowdon are banned.
• Changing Teams - Allowed between rounds. You are allowed to change types between rounds!
• Discussion of Teams - Obviously disallowed.
• Latias and Latios - Banned!
• You do not have to disclose your team type in advance!

Disqualified Battlers
If you're nervous about your opponent's skill and believe you are unable to win, you can try to identify his or her imperfections! Check out the rules in up there.

Disqualification emphasis is stressed on the illegality of legitimate hacks.​

[Erodent]

Match-ups have been posted! Let's play.

 

[Pablo]

This is single elimination correct? I'm ready when themage111 is.

 

[Erodent]

This is double elimination.

Man I wish I could play.... SO MUCH FUN... Also Kudos to whoever uses Mono-Dragon...

Edit: 10 bucks that everyone chooses Mono-Steel... Scizor/Metagross/Bronzong/Empoleon/Heatran/whatever

 

[Deschain]

Man I wish I could play.... SO MUCH FUN... Also Kudos to whoever uses Mono-Dragon...

yeah, because that would be ballsy.

 

[tdub13]

Just slap Yache Berry on everyone and spam Draco Meteor/Outrage...

 

[The Lost One]

Just slap Yache Berry on everyone and spam Draco Meteor/Outrage...

Mono Dragon, meet Mono Steel!

lol, don't worry, I know you're just joking...Or at least I hope so =P

 

[cw333]

I have pm'd Turtwig.

 

[Supe]

mix-mence could do well against monosteel...anyways, I PMed Komodo. I'm going out of town for a week starting Saturday. I really hope he can battle tomorrow.

 

[The Lost One]

Not if he's spamming Outrage for some reason =P Anyway, good luck to everyone! I'm sure that everyone'll have fun with this!

 

[tdub13]

On second thought, Mono Water would kick ass too...

 

[Diesel]

TDS is a bitch!

Fightin' words...

 

[Darklord]

I second that Mono Water team notion. Gyarados, Swampert, Suicune, Kingdra, Vaporeon, Lanturn and Starmie could all work(you can't use all 7 obviously).

Add a Scizor/Heatran as the wildcard to get rid of grass types and you can't go wrong.

I wish I had more time to join Tournaments :\

 

[The Mole]

Have contacted Scruffy, waiting to hear back :|

 

[Komodo]

Hopefully Supe and i can get our match done today. And unlucky Deschain, you better get through to battle me.

 

[Deschain]

i'll see what i can do. ;)

 

[UmbreonPup56]

chaos, ready when you are

 

[Eiganjo]

PMed wiinry, hopefully we can get this done quickly :)

 

[Lightsabre]

lol. that's exactly the team I built, but I didn't get in so I don't care about revealing it. good luck to everybody

 

[tdub13]

Man if somebody built a mono-Poison team, it'd be awesome...

Gengar / Tentacruel / Weezing / Roserade / Venusaur / Drapion???

It could work...

 

[Jimbo]

I think it'd be kind of cool if you only allowed Pokemon who's dominant type is the one in your team (For example, Gengar is Ghost / Poison, not Poison / Ghost) but that's a tad unfair to some types!

I used Mono Water in a tournament once, I ended up winning lol.

 

[tdub13]

That'd be interesting Jimbo... Poison just got shafted big time considering most of them have Poison as a secondary type.

 

[Komodo]

Poison sounds like a fail then.
