Pokemon Showdown Mini-Tournament *In Progress*

[Rosie]

As the Pokemon Showdown League hasn't started up yet, and I have a battle fix, I'm wondering if anyone wants to be involved in a mini-tournament on Pokemon Showdown. Winner gets...Uhh...the satisfaction of winning in a contest of forcing virtual creatures to battle until they can't battle no longer. But hey, it's all for fun.

Battle Format:

-Battles will take place in the OU tier where you make a team on the site's Team Builder with any Pokemon legal for the OU tier (except maybe Mega Metagross if everyone agrees on it... that thing is a bit overpowered)

-You are allowed to mix up your team between battles.

-Other than that, your team is up to your imagination. Whether you make a strong team or make a team of your favorites, that is up to you.

Tournament Format:

-Each participant will battle each other at least once.
-After your battle, click the "upload and share replay" option and link the battle here so we know the result.
-Wins, losses, and +/- will be recorded.
-After everyone faced each other once, then the top four records (including +/-) will battle in the semi-finals. Top rank battles fourth, second faces third. Winners battle in the final.

Participants:

- @Beaver (Bidoof)
- @Mike Thunder (The Thunder Piplup)
- @Y2JCake (Red Velvet Slurpuff)
- @The ReagMaster (Magikarp)
- @deth (Giratina)
- @TheKingSonic (Blue Shaymin)

Also, I don't think MegaGross should be banned. It's not really broken in the standard OU tier. It's only broken in league format because it's harder to check/counter since you can ONLY use 12 or so mons you drafted. Just my 2 cents.

Fair point. Right now it isn't banned unless a bunch of others agree.

And looks like now I will need to prep for it...

I'm aiming for 6-8 people for the tournament, but I'll give it a few days, if we don't reach that range, we'll probably do it as each of us face each other once then the best 4 face off in a semi-finals, and final round (tie breaker may be something like k/d differential *or faint/faint* whatever it will be called).

Until then, if you find some time, go on Pokemon Showdown and make an OU singles team or two and if you're a Pokénoob, maybe experiment a bit, look up some Pokemon and how they work, and have fun.

@Mike Thunder

This will be started Friday. As of right now, we will each battle each other once, and the best four records go in a semi-finals and a finals. If there are ties, then it will be decide by +/-.

If someone joins before then, I'll modify this a bit. Respond or message me to confirm you'll be doing this.
