Hello everyone, I am thinking of hosting a tourney similar to the one chait did for R3zz in June. It will use the same rules as that tourney, as i copied below.
There are some things I am thinking of changing to make it more interesting, i would like some feedback to see if you are 1. interested and 2. think the ideas are good/bad.
the ideas I have for this tourney are;
1. mono type teams- meaning that there will have to be a running type for all 6 of your pokemon, you can use dual type pokemon but all 6 pokemon in your team need the same type
2. ot only pokemon- only pokemon with your ot are legal for your team
3. iv capped pokemon- having an iv cap for example blue iv, could help balance and give newer player more of a chance
I strongly like the idea of mono type teams as a different dynamic for the battles, it makes you think of team a little more.
PRIZE TO BE DECIDED, DEPENDING ON INTEREST.
This will be a Bracket - Style tournament (Every match is a knock-out)
Restrictions:
Team Format:
While the Pokémon you use have to be available in the wild, they don't necessarily have to be Pokémon that you yourself went out and caught. You could have received them in a trade long ago, or even obtained them from boxes or the gold store, but a box/gold store Pokémon must be of a species you could go out and find somewhere in the map. (If you're unsure, please check with @Kortovasan or @ChefMike or @chaitugss before registering your team

This will be a Bracket - Style tournament (Every match is a knock-out)
Restrictions:
- No legendries, pseudo-legendries & their evolutionary lines, or mega evolutions, ultra-beasts

- Pokémon bought from gold store can also be used (provided they are available in the wild)
- There must be no held items

- No duplicate Pokémon from the same evolutionary line; eeveelutions are the exception to this rule.

- None of the Pokémon must be Pre-evolved i.e. some Pokémon which evolves at a level higher than 50 and the owner has it on level 50
While the Pokémon you use have to be available in the wild, they don't necessarily have to be Pokémon that you yourself went out and caught. You could have received them in a trade long ago, or even obtained them from boxes or the gold store, but a box/gold store Pokémon must be of a species you could go out and find somewhere in the map. (If you're unsure, please check with @Kortovasan or @ChefMike or @chaitugss before registering your team
Battle Format:
- All the battles must take place in the presence of at least one of @ChefMike / @Kortovasan / @chaitugss who shall also oversee the match and tournament as referees
- The participants must submit their team prior to the start of the tournament and must refrain use of any other Pokémon throughout the tournament
- During the time of a battle the participant must only carry registered Pokémon
- There would be six 1 vs 1 matches with participants switching pokes after every single face-off
- The decision on who would put the Pokémon out first in the first match-up will be decided by a coin flip 😉 and from then on, it would be alternate, meaning each player would get 3 chances to pull out a Pokémon based on their opponents Pokémon
- A situation of ghost-normal type immunity match-up must be avoided. In a situation where say, player 1 brings out a normal type Pokémon, then player 2 must not bring out a ghost Pokémon (or vice versa)
