Sorry this took so long, been very sick all week. I'd like to ask some people that played and/or watched the event some directed questions: 1) Did you enjoy the event? 2) Do you have any direct criticism towards the manner the event was hosted? (Method of elimination, organization, updates...

preferably something that can be put into a pokéball-like sprite lol

That's not a bad idea, you can DM me your suggestion and I'll probably consider it

Congratulations to our winner! @thePlinko! And to our 2nd and 3rd place, respectively: @Ragnarokio and @The Sun Fan! To all other participants: you all did great and I'm proud of you, keep on practicing and I'm sure you can be the next winner. Thanks everyone for joining, this event could not...

Damn, I didn't even have the time to update the brackets! And with this we have our finalists! With the matches being completed, we're now at the Finals! The undefeated @thePlinko vs. the reascending @Ragnarokio As a reminder: Plinko only has to defeat Rag once to become the champion...

you did great though!! there will be other opportunities in a near future!

I'm sorry for the tournament getting stalled for a while, everyone. Hopefully we can now get it back on its tracks. Judging from the activity of both players throughout the time they were given, as well as considering the arguments provided in these past couple days, I have come to the...

Stands for WalkOver aka Espathra

I'll update the brackets later today so we can proceed with the tournament. So far I'm leaning towards a victory for Rag due to WO. If anyone disagrees with this decision please reach me through DMs or even in this thread.

@Mikey the Moblin @Ragnarokio I'm not the former host and I won't be letting a tournament be dragging out for months just to end up solving it on a biased coin flip. I'd firstly like to ask once again if either if you have reasons to extend this deadline any further. If no good reasons for a...

Sorry about you being sick, Rag. Hope you still get to celebrate or rest in some way. I also forgot today is Easter. If any of you are busy due to religious reasons please let me know.

@Mikey the Moblin @Ragnarokio Please do your battle today. I'll try notifying the other when I see either of you online today. If either of you need a couple more days please let me know, otherwise I don't plan on keep stalling the tournament waiting for this match.

an epic duel in the middle of the town as the sun sets in the background u can hear a harmonica screeching and a dry tumbleweed hopping

I'll update the brackets later tonight (challonge is super jank on phone so it's when I'll have my PC), but the last remaining battle in round 1 should be between Chevy and Sunfan.

Yea he likes to use water types a lot hahaha, it was a great match though!

Hey that only means you now have more opportunities to find 10 minutes in your free time to do your match.

I'm having a bit of a hard time updating Challonge on mobile, but some of the next round's matches can be done in advance in the meanwhile! @thePlinko vs. @Pen @The Dashing Darknut vs. @Ragnarokio No rush to complete them yet, but if you don't want to have to wait for the other contestants...

Since the majority of the players that did voice their preference wanted the match replays to be public, please post them them in-thread after finishing them!

Previous tournaments used to be one and done, so I'm planning on keeping it up. Pretty simple and straightforward. Since we have a Losers bracket there'll be other opportunities for players to comeback. The only official match that can potentially have an instant rematch is the Grand Finals. In...

It has come to my attention that only two people seem to have submitted their teams to Morbid Minish so far? This is a required step to avoid cheating in the tournament. Please submit them before doing your first tournament matches. Thanks.

@Pen @The Dashing Darknut @thePlinko @The Sun Fan @Ragnarokio @Pokémaniac13 @Mikey the Moblin @Chevywolf30 Forgot to ping the participants, oops.

Also, before you all start, I want to ask you about a potential change. Would you prefer the match results to be public or private? In previous tournaments the matches were verified by publicly posting the replay in the thread. What I want to know is: would you all prefer the replays to be...

As promised, here are the first brackets! Please try to complete the first round's battles until April 2nd! The sooner we all do this the sooner we can go to the next rounds! Each battle usually takes less than 10 minutes, and can be played both on mobile and desktop. Just make sure to be...

Aight, I'll give a few more days in case anyone wants to join really badly + so people can finish making and submitting their team to Minish. Sign-ups end on March 21st, at 23:59:59 UTC. Brackets will be posted on the following day, March 22nd. If anyone is opposed to these dates please let me...

What deadline would you all prefer? One more week, until end of month, or as soon we reach 8 players so we have perfect brackets?

I'm trying to put out a blog post this week that will serve as an introduction to competitive pokémon! In the meanwhile I'm always available to try explaining the basics of the game in private. Mikey also seemed to offer some help in teambuilding. Keep in mind that copying sets that you find in...

Sign-ups are still ongoing, welcome aboard

Yes, since both Walking Wakes and Iron Leaves are allowed in National Dex OU at the moment. If the tournament starts while they're still legal, players that had them in their teams will be free to use them throughout the tournament. If they get banned before we start the tournament some extra...

The list of banned Pokémon has been updated. Thanks Plinko and Moe for noticing it was missing stuff.

I think they had a proper discussion about banning it but ended up neglecting updating their lists all over the forum and sites. I'm finding a lot of other pokémon that aren't in the list, I'll update the OP in a few minutes.

oh god it abusing tera would be so painful balloon electric shedinja after shed tail dfsgldfjklgm

oof must be a quick ban I can see it being a problem with shed tail, I'll confirm a few other suspects and update the main post

Shedinja is indeed allowed EDIT: Seems like Shedinja is currently banned from National Dex. The OP has been updated.

Sorry, but no :( There are plans for a tournament in Scarlet and Violet in the future, but this one can only be played in Pokémon Showdown. Pokémon Showdown is what we call a battle simulator. It's a site where players can instantly build their ideal team however they want and fight each other...

Moves that lower accuracy are allowed!
