I suppose we should start talking about clauses now?
No two of the same Pokemon No two of the same held item No two Pokemon asleep or frozen (Sleep/Freeze clause) SelfDestruct/Explosion Clause Are those good? Should we add more/remove these? |

Also, number 6 on the rules list doesn't seem necessary if the Species Clause is being used. |

Interesting. I doubt I'll make a new team, just piece together bits from my other teams. Still should be fun. One thing though: Maybe we should let pokemon like Weavile and Gliscor in. Pokemon who are Gen 2 at heart, but got a nice boosting evolution.

Aww good to know tyranitors on that list of limited pokes~! =w=
Although I don't think Entei should be with the other limited pokes. His semi-bulkiness is wasted by his fire typing, having weaknesses to common attack types like water, ground and rock. His movepool is also too small making him rather predictable without the use of hidden power. Im not saying hes bad, just not all that amazing.

Only Generation 2 Pokemon are allowed. Hmmmm, what's a Generation 2 Pokemon that seems VERY popular nowadays? Why, Scizor! Scizor doesn't have any attacks that will be Super-Effective on Entei (except Hidden Power, haha yeah right), and if the popular Choice Band version of Scizor is used, Entei can easily switch into moves like Bullet Punch, and if the Scizor stays in, moves like Fire Blast and Overheat can score an easy kill. Just saying, Entei may prove useful. |

I considered the fact that only gen 2 pokemon will be used, but 1 good match up doesn't cut it for me to put him singled out with the likes of Suicune and tyranitor. Besides, pretty much every fire pokemon in gen 2 like houndoom and typhlosion counters scizor....unless your name is Magcargo/Slugma. :V Gen 2 is filled with strong water types like Kingdra, Suicune, Azumarill, slowking, politoed and feraligatr (qwilfish too I suppose. I still don't like rain support pokemon) I think it balances Entei out. Entei is very hit and miss. Dominates grass and metal types, but is beaten by most things water or packing earthquake...or both. Again hes not terrible. He makes an excellent bug/steel counter ( ) but I feel that the only reason hes up there is because hes part of the legendary dog trio. Last edited by Sunny; February 15, 2010 at 02:36:32 PM. |

Eh, it could be kinda Battle Frontier-esque. Still, there's no way I would want 3 vs 3 during a tournament. It makes it harder to make a well-rounded team, because if your oponnent got lucky and killed your only counter to something, you would be doomed.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by that. Any of D/P/Pt/HG/SS is usable. If you're asking if you want to switch between battles, it would have to be the exact same Pokémon, so you would have to trade. If you mean that you train your Pokémon on Platinum and then trade them to either HG or SS, there's no problem with that. In fact, I was thinking of doing that.

Aw Lv. 50s...aww...Lv. 100s are longer and more intense...plus your Pokemon do ten times more damage. =\
@Magmaster12: No. Nonononono. Never. No. No way. No. Otherwise, everything looks in order, but may I suggest having the tourney exactly a week after HG/SS releases? It'd provide more than enough time for obtaining Pokemon(especially since Lv. 50 doesn't count EV training) for your team while still allowing order and not having a end of the month MKWii fiasco. =P (especially since HG/SS releases on a Sunday) Now to find a Pokemon to replace one on my planned team... |

This makes me wonder though, that could be used for multiple teams across a few different games. Is the rule "Round 1 team = Final Round team" or a "Use whatever you want each round"? |

To bad the defending pokemon has 10 times more defense, sp.def, and HP. :V only diffrence between lvl 50 and 100 is howmuch EV stats have been added. Its no biggie. Im an EV trainer...but I can like ohmahgosh so totally win in this tourney like ohmahgosh! *shot for ego*

@James: A tournament postponement has happened before. The tournament doesn't necessarily need to switch months. Sunny's will be held the first weekend, while this one will be held the last weekend, on Sunday to be exact.
@Mag: It's single battle because double battles weren't introduced into the Pokémon franchise until the third generation |

I don't think that you should be able to switch one Pokémon out for another in between rounds in a tournament. For example, it's not fair to have one person face one team and then have the next person face a whole new team completely. The first person may have had more of a chance of winning. As for switching games, I see no problem in it AS LONG AS the team is the same for reasons I just explained.

I does seem unfair to have a team that switches around, because it rather takes away the point of team building. However, I think it should be allowed to transfer a team to another game, though that wouldn't make alot of sense... |

Damn. xD And I was hoping no one would have mentioned that. =p Anywho, yes this is actually a lesser known competitive rule, that you can not have both belly drum and a first strike priority move on the same poke. :V Not sure about baton passing belly drums though.

I'm not sure either.
Also, I'm pretty sure its against the rules to have two or more "egg moves" (moves that can only be learned through breeding if anyone didn't know) on the same pokemon. A good example: Azumarill with... -Belly Drum -Aqua Jet -(insert Azu move-set move here) -(insert Azu move-set move here) EDIT: better example: Weavile with... -Ice Punch -Ice shard -a different move -another move Last edited by Quadcentruo; March 1, 2010 at 11:12:07 AM. |

Thanks for bringing that up. I'm not really competitive savvy, believe it or not, and I don't even realize some of these move combinations. I will amend the rules for that particular moveset. Please tell me if there are any more. I do not think that the egg moves rule should be implemented. One of the most fun parts about this is seeing what different moves you can get by breeding.

Oh yes, I really like this and I'll take part for sure once signups open.
Anyway, I'm not familiar with Pokemon tourney, so could someone probably explain to me how we battle each other? I used to have NetBattle and sth. else that I don't remember the name of... Is it a programme of the kind? Also, if we limit the tourney to 2nd generation pokemon, does that limit the touney to 1st and 2nd generation attacks as well? |

Yeah, the battles would be over DS Wi-fi like Yoshi said, and it would definitely not be limited to first and second gen moves. That would make it a little too difficult. |

Oook i'll admit I didn't see celebi listed under ubers, but only because it wasn't official an uber. however, I still think whether or not it belongs to be banished to the uber tier is still up in the air. I for one think it should be along with the legendary dogs and tyranitor. =w=

Also will there be the Skarmbliss clause? Its a clause that says both skarmory and blissey are not allowed on the same team. =w= |

Skarmbliss clause makes sense, after all the two are a dynamic duo that can work together brilliantly to wall most anything. ...Most anything that is not a mixed sweeper. Tyranitar can Fire Blast Skarmory into oblivion and then handle Blissey with ease. It's a sticky subject, so I say that it should be put to a vote. |

Well, it looks like for now that Celebi will stay in the Banned list unless something else come up.
On another matter, I like the arguing! It's fun to watch. Keep it up. I'll put a poll up for the Skarmbliss clause right now, and I'll keep it until... Sunday? Does that sound fair enough? Last edited by Ditto616; March 10, 2010 at 11:41:25 AM. |

Skarmory would kill Heracross and you better have a scope lens on that Heracross with to get a Close Combat kill on a Pokémon that defensive though. =\

Yes, between the two of them, they can completely nullify most attacks. Both have healing moves as well. I think the only thing that even has a chance at breaking the combo is somekinda mixed sweeper. Otherwise both can outstall the opponent for as long as they want. (Between soft boil and roost that is)
Also apologies to ditto for that comment as I was...*ahem* sensitive that day. >3> not a good day. Last edited by Sunny; March 11, 2010 at 07:26:50 PM. |
