    Default The Random Tourney - Information Center

    Ok so the Random Tourney is GO!

    This will be a true test of skill as you battle with three completely randomly determined species of Pokemon. Will you be lucky and get a team member, or will you struggle to utilise a difficult species?

    We have 16 spaces here and I myself will only sign up if there is a lack of spaces, since, well, I've been in the main Tourney and the Grand Festival.

    The set-up will work as follows.


    We begin with 16 people. 8 will go through to Round 2.

    Those 8 will battle and the 4 winners will go to Round 3.

    And those 4 will be further dwindled to a remaining 2 for the finals.


    Now thanks to everybodies support and contribution in the ASB Auction we have raised a total of 53 Points which is split as follows:


    1st Place: 23 points
    2nd Place: 17 points
    3rd Place: 13 points


    So as you can see, this is definitely worth fighting for! Rules and regulations for each round will be updated here and this is the main topic to ask any questions.

    All places are filled. Battlers, you will be PMed with your 3 Pokemon. These are the only Pokemon you can use in the Tourney. We know who you all have, too, so don't try and pull the wool over my eyes.

    I will put up four of the matches now. Refs would be appreciated.

    Well since you never signed up you never got any random Pokemon. But for kicks I'll randomise you a team:

    1. Quagsire [F]

    2. Ursaring [M]

    3. Gardevoir [M]

    You never specified the genders of the Pokémon we received. Do we get to chose them ourselves... or? >.> And can we nickname them for kicks? XD Because I know exactly what I'd Nickname one of mine. XD

    Yeah... can we name them, though? I got such a wonderful Pokémon... what a shame it would be if it didn't have a wonderful name to match.
