Tourney never happened, blah blah blah, this is now Pokémon General.

----------

Andrew, Billy and I have been talking briefly, and I've come to a decision. A tremendously homosexual decision.

We're going to have the first OB Invitational Pokemon Battle Royale.

Who can partcipate?

Any OB member or trainer who's invited by an OB member to participate (they can sign up if they like). It makes it easier to track all the participants if they're rooted well to one spot.

What are the prizes?

We will endeavor to arrange a prize of actual value, but as for now, it will be the Title. There is only one Champion, and in the Sleestakistan Region, there is currently no Champion, and no League. Total Anarchy, waiting for one superior battler to show up and tell everyone the fucking score.

Where and When?

Battles will take place on the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection, or locally if anyone just happens to be around their opponent. The official Tournament begins August 1st, and battles will take place at times of convenience for the trainers involved, on a week-by-week basis (All first-round fights must be settled in the first week, etc).

Here are the basic rules:

You have one month to hone a team a six level 60s. Non-Legendary (non-legendaries with Pressure are allowed). No held items. Just you and your six best 'Mons. You are allowed to use uniques ('Mons that appear once per pack). If you have questions on whether or not a 'Mon of your choice is legal, PM me.

From now until August 1st, you will have time to train, level, and hold exhibitions with your fellow trainers. On August 1st, all registered participants will be placed in brackets and hold their fights over Nintendo WFC. We will be using the honor system for now, but if we figure out a reliable way to record the fights, we'll have records (but I trust you people to be good sports). Brackets will advance until the final match, and the winner will receive ultimate bragging rights.

But, of course, the Championship Title can be challenged for basically anytime.

Post in this thread if you are intending to participate. List your team if you choose to. July 24th is the deadline for official team submission, the team you will be using for the tournament.

Andrew, Billy and I will continue to hammer out the details, but this is your one-month warning to train your combat slaves as hard as you might, pump them full of drugs, and so on.

You want to be the very best? The best there ever was?

Well here's your fucking chance.

1v1 or 2v2?

One more complaint, and this things goes WSILP.

We fight for glory! Bring honor to your family and your dojo!

1v1, the way God INTENDED.

The Held Items rule MAY be subject to change. But for now, don't plan on them.

fine fine fine. I'll beat the bawls off yas.

I'm in.

I hereby volunteer to send cookies to the CHAMPION. Your choice of variety!

Oh dear God. That's so sad, yet I laughed like an evil person at the same time.

I think my favorite is the one with the Ghostbusters box and no sign of Ghastly/Haunter/Whatever. Haha!

Oh My God I need Pokemon for my DS dor this D:

Great Question. We are going to be utilizing Diamond/Pearl/Platinum to stay current. You can choose whichever one you want for yourself, but you need to have one of the current generation to participate.

With the ability to auto level to 100 on Wi-Fi do they all really need to be trained to level 60?

Yes, because the playing field is STILL more square that way.

Plus it allows for the hardcore-er players to do all their faggy +EV training.

We will endeavor to arrange a prize of actual value, but as for now, it will be the Title. There is only one Champion, and in the Sleestakistan Region, there is currently no Champion, and no League. Total Anarchy, waiting for one superior battler to show up and tell everyone the fucking score.

THIS.
This has almost convinced me.

Get back to training, fucker.
