Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Paranoia - 03-16-2014
Aight nerds, I think it's time we did one of these.
General Smogon rules and banlists apply - no ubers, no mega kengas, gengar, lucaro, or mewtwo, sleep clause, evasion clause, moody (ability) is banned, as is swagger(move).
This will be a Round Robin tournament - each type will fight each other *once*, and we'll be doing this on Showdown.
The winner gets SIX - count 'em - SIX pokemon of their choice bred to specification by me.
In here be the pokemon banlist.
'aight so I guess I have to lay down some extra rules so the entire thing isn't run over with legendary dragons:
ONLY ONE LEGENDARY PER TEAM IF IT IS AVAILABLE TO YOU.
That means only one (count 'em) one legendary OU or lower per team. You all have choices from your types that don't rely on legendary stats, Use Them.
Entrants
Normal - Acionyx
Grass - Crowstone
Fire - Whims
Bug - Schazer
Water - Granola
Poison - Plaid
Ground - Bigro
Fighting - MrGuy
Ghost - Slorange
Dragon - Garuru
Steel - Amos
Dark - KittenEater
Fairy - Mirdini
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Schazer - 03-16-2014
Uuuuuh I won't call dibs, but if I could get any one of Bug, Flying, Grass or Ice (top preference Bug, roughly in that order) I could rustle up a team.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Whimbrel - 03-16-2014
I'll take the one no one else wants! So type me up when everyone else enters.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - ZenFeline - 03-16-2014
I'll take Steel.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - SleepingOrange - 03-16-2014
G-g-g-ghooooost
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Gatr - 03-16-2014
Rock, please!
Diancie isn't allowed, so I'm going to say Dragon instead.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Plaid - 03-16-2014
Poison please! :>
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Mirdini - 03-16-2014
~Fairy~
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Crowstone - 03-17-2014
as with whim i will take whatever type is left over
also i don't own X or Y so hopefully i won't win haha
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Granolaman - 03-17-2014
I'll try water. Is this straight up monotype or are we allowed dual-typed pokemon?
Also: double battles?
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - SleepingOrange - 03-17-2014
Singles, and monotype just means they all have to have the type in their typing, not that they have to only be of that type.

RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Paranoia - 03-20-2014
Right Changes.
Due to the *slow* pace of signups we're doing doubletypes - pick ONE OTHER TYPE - in reverse order of signups.
This means the order of picks goes from top to bottom:
Granola
Mirdini
Plaid
Garuru
Slorange
Felix
Schazer
Bigro
Remember to keep your teams somewhat even in representation of your chosen types! that is all.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Gatr - 03-20-2014
Wait so we make two teams, one of each type? Or we incorporate both types in one team?

both types into one team, somewhat even representation (for example - three grass types, three rock types on a grass/rock team, or two grass/rock dual types with two more rock types and two more grass types.)
RE: Pokemon XY OU Mono2type Tournament - Gatr - 03-20-2014
if its my turn and im not here i will pick:
Rock
Fire
Ice
Psychic
in that order of priority. dont feel like you cant take these types if youre up before me, though. im flexible.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Whimbrel - 03-20-2014
I'M FIRE
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Paranoia - 03-20-2014
Alright, so considering complaints we're going back to just 18 people in a monotype round robin tournament.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Crowstone - 03-21-2014
looks like i'm back, and i'm .... already grass, apparently.
nice.

RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Kitet - 03-21-2014
I can't believe signups have been going on this long and I STILL haven't needed to actually call dibs on Dark Type yet.
And like, I wasn't even really sure if I would join, seeing as how I only have like two people from this forum on my friend code thing and I haven't beaten Y yet.
Is there even... do I have to have beaten the game to participate? Do I need that pokemon bank thing? I've been lost for months.

https://play.pokemonshowdown.com/ we'll be using this sim
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - Schazer - 03-21-2014
We'll be playing on an online simulator (the one Garuru just linked), so you don't even need a physical copy of the game to participate. You'll need one to collect the prize from Para if you win though!
If you haven't used Showdown before, hop on IRC and there will be people who can give you a hand.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - MaxieSatan - 04-03-2014
Yes hello I am the fighting man.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - Paranoia - 04-27-2014
Right. We're starting.
The match ups for the first round are as follows:
Schazer vs. Garuru
Bigro vs. Whims
Mirdini vs. Crowsy
Slorange vs. Felix
Plaid vs. KittenEater
MrGuy vs. Acionyx
As a note, please create a replay of your matches and pm them to me so I can get the results - I'll keep them to release them after a round has ended.
RE: Pokemon XY OU Monotype Tournament - STARTING - SleepingOrange - 04-27-2014
Yaaay!
Felix, hit me up on #eagletime when you're ready to do this thang.
e: wouldn't it make more sense not to release the replays until the end of the tournament? You don't want people knowing what to expect from your team going into the fight.
