And so we made a pokémon tournament. Anyway, basic outline.
- Participants should express interest here in the topic. However, don't post your teams. You'll want to PM them to me. (to minimize counterpicking shenanigans and such)
- Participants should submit teams of six.
- Any pokémon up to #493 (ie Gen 4) may be used. Similarly, Gen 4 mechanics and skillset limitations will be in effect.
- Each team should be constructed, in addition to winning matches obviously, as though it were for a Gym Leader. Each pokémon should have a common typing, and having a signature move between pokémon would be nice as well, although if it doesn't fit your team concept it doesn't fit.
Addendum: if you have another clearly defined theme concept beyond shared typing, just ask, I'll likely allow it.
- Each team should have its full moveset and item selection with the submission. Use of TMs, ideal EVs, etc are assumed.
- There should be no duplicate items in your team.
- While no specific limits on what pokémon you can use will be in place, I do hope nobody tries to run a Rayquaza/Palkia/Dialga/Giratina/Latios/Garchomp team either, y'know?
- If your team is sufficiently similar to another already submitted, I'll get hold of you and see if you want to tweak it. I don't expect this to come up, but it's there.
Actual matchups will be 2v2 affairs, so be aware of how your team functions in twin battles.
Will aim to launch next week.
