Anyone planning on entering?

I'm going to one, hopefully. I plan to atleast get 3rd.

[Rosencrantz]

a group of my friends were trying to get me to join this

ehhhhh, might as well
it'd be fun

[Omegajak]

Guess Canadian kids are out. Newark New Jersey is 8 hrs drive for all the East Coast kids but honestly that's a journey for something that might not even pull through.

[Rhyme]

oh and it's level 50 limit (YOU limit it, not them, this isnt done over wifi), double battles.


Get training. B)

[GrooveMan.exe]

Going to the britfag version. I don't really care about it, but friends are going.

Edit: Rhymey no, the levels are auto-limited. 'mon over 50 have the levels scaled back, 'mon under 50 are unchanged.

[JarJar]

Oh wow Newark is only a 40 min. drive from here since I'm in Jersey, it's possible I could join this.

oh wow, okay. thanks. :p

[Rosencrantz]

yeah, my friend recommended me to go with a dragon-dancing Kingdra
then I told him about my Trick Room + Gyro Ball Bronzong, and he said it won't be a good idea since I'm very likely to get taunted
and he didn't say much to my status-inflicting Rotom
and he recommended I re-work my Mamoswine

still thinking about what other two backups I should use
I'm thinking about using Lucario/Toxicroak and Aerodactyl as my backups (since Rotom, as a supporter, might not cut it for most of the tourney)


Hell, I won't take their offer if I *somehow* make it into the top 16, provided by some miracle I get into the top 16, but it would be fun to compete anyway C:

You can always use a follow me user and a trick room user at the same time to avoid getting taunted while trying to set up trick room.
Although, you may lose to the ever popular Mewtwo - Abamosnow leads. You guys are aware that Kyogre/Palkia/Dialga/Rayquaza (every non event legendary) is available for use right?

[Rhyme]

my team so far (planned, nones ev trained. I have a month til I have to get serious (indianapolis, in is where im headed))

Umbreon / Pory-Z ~ lead

Umbreon @ Leftovers
-Curse
-Yawn
-Double-Edge
-Payback
~
Pory-Z @ ??? (idk yet.)
-Trick Room
-Tri-Attack
-Psybeam
-???

Umbreon curses to set up a huge attack with low speed, Pory-Z trick rooms.



and thats all i have so far.

[Cshad]

Why not use Dialga/Palkia? Porygon Z is incredibly frail, both Pokemon are taunt/explosion/fake-out fodder.

[water dog]

i would join but its probably going to be a competetive tier clusterfuck

[Alpha Six]

i would join but its definitely going to be a competetive tier clusterfuck

i would join but its probably going to be a competetive tier clusterfuck

You'd think so, but it's also open to THA KIDDIEZ and a fair number of Ubers are allowed. You can roll in with a Kyogre if you want! That, and it's forced Doubles, too. 'Pros' never play Doubles, it's like cancer to them.

I'm gonna use an Azelf with Rain Dance and U-Turn, a Regice with Thunder, and a Kingdra with Swift Swim. If they lead with Ky00ber, I won't even need the Rain Dance~ It'll be a riot.

[water dog]

im going to go in with treecko, combusken, and wartortle :- ) and get beat first round
