Default October Tournament - SIGN-UPS (D/P/Pt/HG/SS)

Alright. This month, we are going to try a new way to conduct tournaments. I'm going to allow sign-ups until October 2nd. The catch is that there is no date. All the battles will be within a given time frame, which depends on how many people sign up. If the battle is not conducted within the given time, contact me for the reason why. I shall then decide who moves on (in some cases, it could be neither). If all goes according to plan, we may just adopt this style for all future main tournaments. So now, the rules again.

Battles are on the DS, D/P/Pt/HG/SS, done in level 100 battles.

GIMMICK: You may only use Pokémon of the Ghost, Bug or Dark type, and Pokémon that the Pokédex has stated to be black, and whatever I decide shall be called the color black and the color orange.

Dark Types    
Umbreon, Murkrow, Sneasel, Houndour, Houndoom, Tyranitar, Poochyena, Mightyena, Nuzleaf, Shiftry, Sableye, Carvanha, Sharpedo, Cacturne, Crawdaunt, Absol, Honchkrow, Stunky, Skuntank, Spiritomb, Drapion, Weavile

Ghost Types    
Gastly, Haunter, Gengar, Misdreavus, Shedinja, Sableye, Shuppet, Banette, Duskull, Dusclops, Drifloon, Drifblim, Mismagius, Spiritomb, Dusknoir, Froslass, Rotom (NO FORMES ARE TO BE USED)

Bug Types    
Butterfree, Beedrill, Parasect, Venomoth, Scyther, Pinsir, Ledian, Ariados, Yanma, Forretress, Scizor, Shuckle, Heracross, Beautifly, Dustox, Masquerain, Ninjask, Shedinja, Volbeat, Illumise, Armaldo, Kricketune, Wormadam, Mothim, Vespiquen, Yanmega

Black Pokémon    
Chatot, Claydol, Mawile, Munchlax, Seviper, Snorlax, Spoink, Unown, Grumpig, Staraptor

Orange Pokémon    
Charizard, Camerupt, Solrock, Seaking, Moltres, Floatzel, Dragonite, Infernape, Arcanine, Heatran, Regirock, Raichu

SPECIAL EXCEPTION POKEMON
Special exceptions    
Crobat, Marowak, Gliscor


GOLDEN RULE: NEVER IN ANY TOURNAMENT SHALL HACKED POKEMON BE USED, UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE


1. Uber Clause- You shall not use any of the following Pokémon:
List of Ubers    
Arceus
Darkrai
Deoxys (all forms)

Lugi
Manaphy
Mew
Mewtwo

2. Sleep Clause- No two Pokémon may be asleep on the same team, HOWEVER: this does not include self-induced sleep from attacks such as Rest.

3. Evasion Clause- You may not use moves, such as Double Team, to raise your own evasiveness. You may use moves that lower your opponents stats, such as Sand-Attack and Sweet Scent.

4. OHKO Clause- Can't use Sheer Cold, Guillotine, Horn Drill, or Fissure.

5. Species Clause- You may not use two of the same National Pokédex Number

6. Selfdestruct Clause- If you use Self-Destruct, Explosion, or Destiny Bond with your last available Pokémon and it faints. You lose. Period.

Count me in!

And I just have a question, as well. Do many people utilize IVs, or do most consider monthly tournaments not to be worth it?

I'm a nooby with this - but how many Pokemon do we need? I'm assuming 3, but then again. . .

Anyway, sign me up!

Wow... I never posted the battle conditions. I feel dumb now. I'm editing the first post for it. And yes Nin, they are allowed. Anything in any of the spoilers up there is up for grabs.

No, you are allowed any combination of Pokémon from the 6 categories. I also don't know the time intervals as of right now.

OhnoooI'mDroppingOut...

Seriously, I'm dropping out. Training Pokémon has become a chore, and I don't want to anymore.

I added Raichu to Orange and Gliscor to Exceptions because no one caught me on those, except for the someone else that's filling the last spot on the roster. We now have an even number of competitors and I hope to get brackets up tomorrow.
