THE RULES
Aldrine Guerrero said:
Advanced rules:
no Ubers
Item/Species/Sleep/Evasive Clauses (evasive moves can be used once)
No switching

Sleep Clause: Standard rule, this means that no more than ONE Pokemon of the
same player can be asleep at any one time. This is to prevent
lucky sleep runs with Hypnosis and whatnot. Self-induced sleep
like Rest does NOT contribute to the clause, so you can have a
resting Pokemon, and still have another Pokemon put to sleep.
If you have already put one of your opponent's Pokemon to sleep,
and try to use a sleep move again, the move will simply fail.

Uber clause: No Ubers, simple as that.
Wobbuffet and Wynaut, although not Ubers, are usually banned for cheapness.

Species clause: No more than one species of the same Pokemon on one team.
Auto-enforced, imagine having 3 Blisseys. Or Groudons. OR
LUVDISC!

Item clause: Pokemon may not carry the same item (i.e. no more than 1 pokemon can carry soft sand or leftovers)

Evasive Clause: No more than 1 use of evasive altering move can be used on a single pokemon

and of course the all familiar rule...
no switching

We're all a family. Please be honest and respect al the rules. We're going on a trust system that ALL rules are carried out fairly.

SCHEDULE

Tournament Starts: October 15th, 2008

Aldrine Guerrero said:
The way we had it originally set u was that everyone challenges everybody. They keep track of their win/loss record and the 4 people with the most wins advances to the next round. That way everyone can play everybody. In the case of ties, they basically challenge again to see the victor.

The next round is set as a single elimination. Semi-finals and then on to the finals.

Semi finals is a 6v6 match

The finals match is a doubles battle. 2v2

The winner of that match is then declared as the overall winner.

If you see me on AIM - (UAL777Mech), just IM me and I'm sure I'll be up for a battle or two. (IF you don't see me on AIM or it says I'm "Away" - then I'm probably busy at work.) LOL

Right now I'm kinda busy, but I'll be on this weekend... and probably quite a few times during the week! :D
 
BUMP for anyone still interested in joining us for the 2008 UU Pokemon Tournament.

We need at least ONE (1) more person to get this thing rolling! It would be best if we got THREE (3) more, but we need at least ONE (1)!

If you're not on the list and are intested in joining in on the fun, please PM me your Palpad Friend ID and FC# by Wednesday, October 8th! Don't worry about only playing ONE round and then being eliminated, cause we're going to probably have it as a Double Elimination Rule. You must lose two rounds to be eliminated - so you'll be able to compete for at least two rounds.

There are baton passers out there. I should actually change it to a status clause which applies to all status effects.
 
Thanks for the update on the rules Aldymon!

The RULES, Schedule and Competitors list has been updated!

If we have only 8 competitors, then we should have no problem with a double elimination set-up! However, if there are still more UU members that want in - please let us know so we can figure out the schedule of battles accordingly.

This is working up to being a fun competition... hope I last more than 2 rounds! :D
 
ok so if the enemy doesn't hav baton pass and we don't have roar/whirlwind, then this rule doesn't even apply to us cuz nobody will be switching out

The way we had it originally set u was that everyone challenges everybody. They keep track of their win/loss record and the 4 people with the most wins advances to the next round. That way everyone can play everybody. In the case of ties, they basically challenge again to see the victor.

The next round is set as a single elimination. Semi-finals and then on to the finals.

Semi finals is a 6v6 match

The finals match is a doubles battle. 2v2

The winner of that match is then declared as the overall winner.
