Good luck. I can't really do much during the week because of college though.

What a waste.

 

[breaktemp]

@RustInPeace @TLOZmaster @Gregora

Awesome, you three have been signed up !

* only 5 more to have a full bracket *

@Phanton

A few users have tried hosting single battle tournaments in the past...but there is usually not enough people to sign up.

I do encourage you to host one (after this tournament concludes)

Also, I am now looking into having prize support for this Tournament.

Any "in-game" items or pokemon you all would like to win as a prize ?

 

[NoNoNeko]

Maybe set up a destiny knot or an iv/ev kit of items?

@TLOZmaster

Sure thing, I should have extra of those items.

@ars25 @yodamerlin @Jared Major

Nice, you all have been signed up !!

If you have any questions, feel free to message/inbox me or post here.

 

[NoNoNeko]

One more person!

Another thing you can do as a prize is a generated/inserted legal pokemon. Like a perfect IV'ed Event Gengar. A tournament I was involved with in the past handed out shiny Nidoran breeding rejects. As entrance prizes. I thought it was kinda cool to be handing out just shiny pokemon or something like that. And with Ninjhax2 all over the place and the ability to use pkhex right now, that might be an awesome thing to do. I admit that I'm not as interested in the EV and breeding items as most. Kind of comes with playing a lot of the extra games online, pkhex, and having both X and OmegaRuby.

I spent ages breeding my current team. I plan on breeding another, personal team.

I spent ages breeding my current team. I plan on breeding another, personal team.

I breed 90% of my pokemon. 9% are events. 1% are inserted pokemon that I use for breeding partners. The only inserted pokemon I use is my 5 IV Event Gengar and I inserted it because I was going to reset until I got one anyways. I just wanted to save time and aggravation. Besides, I'm of the opinion that it's less about the IVs of the pokemon and more about how one uses them.

After all, a Pachirisu won last year's Worlds. And it won because the person was very strategic in how it was used.

I can supply a prize like that. It's a good idea, but there is the fact that anyone can use PKHex now, and it doesn't take long to learn how to use it.

One could argue the same about items since pkhex can give you x998 of everything.
