Pokemon Tournament

Creedkingsx will be hosting a Bracket-style tournament. Games will be played on Pokemon Showdown (http://www.play.pokemonshowdown.com/). Replays must be provided for each game.

If you wish to play, /sign here with your account name on the site. Go to teambuilder and look through the different categorizations of pokemon and submit your vote for which playlist you want to play under. It will run best two out of three games. Each game will be played under a different playlist, order based on votes.

Once you start with a team under a certain category, you will not be allowed to edit the team once the tournament has started.
Games will play in this order:
First game will be under the OU playlist. (Over used)
Second game will be under the NU playlist. (Never used)
Tiebreaker, if necessary, in a Random Battle

All players will be expected to make their own teams under the OU and NU playlists. You cannot edit your teams in anyway once it has been used once. All replays of each game must be submitted by each player in the game. Just post them here. I will review them all to see if teams were edited at all.

Players:
1. The_BadAsh
2. Creedkingsx
3. MintBery_Crunch
4. Jr4life24
5. RobinLVGamer
6. mBrendan
7. Gingerape
8. Fatalis
9. YellowKingValley (Nick)
10. Auckmid
11. Bahkieh

The final match will be a best of 5 and held like this:
First Match: RU
Second Match: Ubers
Third Match: UU
Fourth Match: Random
Fifth Match, if it comes to it: A playlist mutually agreed upon by both parties.

Making brackets. Will post in a moment.

Moved to forum games. Yes, this means post count. Also means I will be more strict on the post. :P

Signups will be open for one more day if anyone wants to play, I will edit the bracket accordingly.

Starting tomorrow at 5pm EST, players can start to play according to the bracket posted.

It says we can't edit our team but can we change the order of our lineup? (moving somebody to lead off instead of somebody else)

creedkingsx
January 7th, 2013, 05:52 PM
Going to put this into the rules, but something that everyone should be wary of:

The final match, for the winner of the tournament, will be played out differently. By that I mean, it won't be NU and OU. I have not decided which playlists, YET, but I will decide probably in a couple minutes here.

Posted.

Everyone may no proceed with their games. Remember, both players submit replays of the game.

I don't get it? If we can't change team how can we change from an OU team to an NU team?
Also, on the "final match" you mean final tournament game?

Go to Teambuilder, select the format to the playlist. Make 5 different teams, OU and NU are for every game up until the finals. You cannot change your OU or NU team in anyway once you have started playing.

Auckmid
January 8th, 2013, 08:37 PM
So for the first match, we are only allowed to use OU pokemon?

creedkingsx
January 8th, 2013, 08:39 PM
Yes.

Ash
January 8th, 2013, 08:42 PM
Yes.
so for all matches in the first game, it's just OU team?????????????????????????

creedkingsx

Liepard is a fast Dark. Has it's uses but not a great defense.
Emolga, electric/flying. Don''t know anything about stats, but it's extremely weak to rock.
swoobat is the Golbat of Gen 5.
Garbador is meh for me. But I don't like poison pokemon to start with, so eh. lol
Watchog is the raticate of Gen 5.
Audino's most impressive stat is HP, I believe, which doesn't go too far unless you are Blissey.

Well, according to Poke type chart, Grass is half effective against another Grass, but when my enemy made grass attack on my grass pokemon, the attack was Super Effective and made 100% DMG. How??

That I don't know, it could be another type move actually. There's a million of moves so easy to mistake, what exactly was the move?


Btw, here's a Quick Lesson how types work. If anything is wrong here, it's a game faulth or a different type then what you think.

There's the following types :
Normal, Fire, Fighting, Water, Flying, Grass, Poison, Electric, Ground, Psychic, Rock, Ice, Bug, Dragon, Ghost, Dark, Steel

There can be multi-types like Fire-Electric, Steel-Grass.

Weakness example :
Grass: Flying 2×, Poison 2×, Bug 2×, Fire 2×, Ice 2×
Steel: Fighting 2×, Ground 2×, Fire 2X
Grass/Steel Multi: Fighting 2×, Fire 4X

If it's not a game faulth or different type, there's a chance you had a dual type with weakness to grass somehow.
