The E.V.I.L Tournament

[Indecent Exposure]

E.V.I.L Tournament
General Information
-10¥ entry fee (doesn't have to be payed until the tournament officially begins. If I dissapear without sayign so beforehand, money will be automatically refunded 2 weeks after my last post. This way you don't need to worry about losing your money)
-8 places available
-60¥, and an EVIL Tournament Gold Medallion goes to the winner
-20¥, and an EVIL Tournament Silver Medallion goes to the runner-up
-10¥ (your money back in other words), and an EVIL Tournament Bronze Medallion to 3rd place
-Despite the final battle being in need of many Pokemon, it is actually possible to compete, and win, this tournament with as little as 4 Pokemon (although extremly difficult). In other words, even if you only have your starting 6 Pokemon, you do have enough to compete.

Battle Rules
-All battles are 2 out at a time
-Each set (bar the final & 3rd place playoff) lasts only 3 rounds
-48 Hour DQ
-I ref it all
-All battles take place in EVIL Underground Lair
-Battlers always PM starting Pokemon, and first round attacks to me
-First attacks from second round come from whoever is winning after the first round (the person wining is defined by who has the largest combined HP, status effects only come into play if combined HP is equal)
-Third round would be the reverse (as in normal battle situation)
-If only one Pokemon faints, the player may still continue (only in 1st & 2nd rounds)
-The winner is the player with the highest combined HP left after the 3 rounds
-Pokemon can be re-used in the same battle, but there must be at least one set between each appearance (so it could appear in the 1st and 3rd set of a battle, but not the 2nd and 3rd). A Pokemon re-entering the battle would begin with a maximum 90% health during it's second stint, 80% in it's third stint etc. unless they left that battle in a worse condition that the maximum (eg. down to 65% and poisoned), in which case they would return in that exact state. If a Pokemon has previously fainted in the battle, they will re-enter with only 50%. Please note that all pokemon, as in normal situation, are all restored to 100% after they progress to the next tournament round.

1st Round Details
-2 on 2 (both out at same time)
-Arena: EVIL Underground Lair - Main Room. A medium-sized metallic room (Dig, and other such attacks are not possible) with a long desk in the middle, surrounded by chairs. There are also computers and other such junk around the side of the room. Pokemon cannot leave the room. Battlers do not enter the room.
-The winner is the player with the highest total HP at the end of 3 rounds

2nd round details
-6 on 6 (2 out at a time)
-Arena: EVIL Underground Lair - Human Training Room. This room is filled with such thigns as excercise machines, a couple of water dispensers and food/drink machines. Also has a boxing ring, and a few punchbags in one corner. Pokemon cannot leave the room. Battlers do not enter the room.
-This battle is split into 3 sets (2 on 2 3x), with each one having a winner through the same process as the previous round. The overall winner is the person who wins two sets.

3rd Place Play-Off
Exactly as the Final only with it being 3 on 3, all out at the same time (but as with the final, when one Pokemon faints the battle is over).

Final
-10 on 10 (2 out at a time)
-Arena: EVIL Underground Lair - Pokemon Training Room. A (very large) room designed to help Pokemon train in an arena where they would usually be at a disadvantage. This room can change to represent each Pokemon type, as is essentially a normal enviroment of that type (eg. A large pond for Water type, Volcano peak for Fire type). The type of the room changes after each set depending on the main (or one of the main) weakness that the 4 Pokemon in battle have (eg. If the Pokemon are Gyarados & Blastoise vs. Mudkip & Charmader, it would be an Electric enviroment). There will also be Pokemon of the enviroments type hanging around who WILL ATTACK FREQUENTLY. The only attacks not really available in this arena as ones such as fly which, although can be done, would not allow the Pokemon to truly simulate the games version of the attack (due to the arena being underground).
-The sets in the final are different from the previous ones, rather than follow the 3 round format, they go on until one Pokemon has fainted. The winner of the set is the first to make an oppositions Pokemon faint (in other words, you lose one of your Pokemon, you lose the set, and it's all change).
-This battle is split into 5 sets (2 on 2 5x), with each having a winner through the same process as mentioned above. The overall winner is the person who wins 3 sets.

[Soneko]

I'd like to enter. Do I t'do anything at the time other then saying that? Just checkin'. Thankoo.

[Indecent Exposure]

Nope, nothign at all. Just make sure you have your 10¥ ready for when the tournament begins (when we have 7 more participants).

[Zup]

I'll join. I'm still waiting for that elusive eighth member to mine(grumble grumble), so I might as well join one that will get off the ground.

[DarkTemplarZ]

I'll also enter

[dragon684]

aaaah why not.
count me in

[Pichu]

I'd love to enter... but I don't have my paycheck... so I have to wait until Karin gives me a paycheck, then I would have enough money. >.<

Unless... Zup never gets his tournament to start, I might have to refund my 10 yen I put there.... xP

[Indecent Exposure]

Well, best I can do is keep a spot for you unless somebody else comes in with the money. I'd like to give a spot to you, but it's not really fair to keep a spot for you if there are others with the money ready.

So make sure you post if/when you have 10¥ available to ensure you get to compete.

[Pichu]

*points*

I'm applying that 10 yen here, okay? *goes to the bank and update*

[IceMan]

I'm joining...

[Indecent Exposure]

Ok then, we need 2 more participants and then we can begin.

[Matt]

I want to join, please.

[Indecent Exposure]

Ok then, we need one more participant and the tournament will begin.

If anybody has a friend or something, ask 'em to join so we can get this thing started as soon as possible.

Ok, that's the final line up. I'm making the topics now, so go ahead and PM me your starting attacks.


Just a few tips, remember its the trainer with the highest combined HP after 3 rounds. Which means using a combination of attackign moves and defensive moves is essential, but don't waste your time with attacks such as Rest etc. And just a note, you can use all defensive moves if you like, but remember a Pokemon using a recovery move is usually still and therefore vunerable.

[Indecent Exposure]

Ok, the first round is over now, and the second round is ready to begin.

Once all the starting Pokemon have been PMed to me, I'll open the new topics and you can start PMing me the starting attacks.

Round 2
Battle 5
IceMan vs. Zup
1st Set: Butterfree (F) & Squirtle (M) vs. Relic the Omaster (M) & Driena the Growlithe (F)

Battle 6
DarkTemplarZ vs. Shidorah
1st Set: Kyoshinhei the Steelix (M) & Soujiro the Scyther (M) vs. Taunt the Girafarig (F) & Wrath the Houndoom (F)


Ok, a few more tips for the start of this next round. This arena is bigger, however there are far more thigns around. Attacks like Blizzard and Thunder will no longer fill the entire arena, although they will fill quite a bit (in other words, you can still hit both opponents and your partner, so careful). Dig and any other attacks that cause "damage" to the floor of the arena will now work.

An important thign to remember, this battle is split up into the 3 sets (so its essentially doing the same battle as last round, 3 times over. unless a player wins the first two sets, in whcih case the third ould be pointless). So don't go changing your strategy for a longer term battle, since your Pokemon will still leave the battlefield after 3 rounds.

And finally, if needed you can now use your Pokemon in 2 different sets (although in this round, you can only use the same ones in the 1st and 3rd sets). Just remember the fact that they will return with the same amount of damage they left the battlefield with (in case anybody misunderstands, you can use the Pokemon you used in the 1st round fully healed).

[Indecent Exposure]

Ok, due to Zup forfeiting all his battles, his and IceMan's second round battle is over. But for obvious reasons I can't just let IceMan advance into the next round. So I have decided to hold a battle among the four first round losers to determine who will face IceMan in round two.

The battle will be a 1 on 1 on 1 on 1, lastign 5 rounds, with the leader at that point being the winner, and therefore advancing to the 2nd round.

The DarkTemplarZ vs. Shidorah match will continue as scheduled, although the winner and loser will probably have to wait a little before they get to compete in the final and 3rd place playoff respectivly. But it hopefully wont be too long a wait.
