2011 TREZ Pokémon Tournament

Hosted by Yatterman-2 aka Torchman

Rules written by Saberman

Entries Begin: February 28, 2011

Entries End: April 13, 2011 (will be extended if there are not enough competitors)

Round 1 Begins: April 19, 2011 (6 days given to give the host(s) time to prepare the brackets)

~Tournament Rules~
-All battles will be fought 6 on 6 Single Battle style using Pokémon Online, a battle simulator. The program could be found here: http://www.pokemon-online.eu/

*Regarding the Program*
1. Use the Team Builder to build your team. This program prevents ALL cheating, so illegal movesets or stats are not possible. Please keep and utilize all 510 EVs available. If you need help building teams as far as strategy goes, use this link to help you out.
2. Please create your Trainer using your current TREZ name to make it easy to recognize you.
3. A server will be created especially for TREZ to use for the tournament so non-TREZians cannot access the server. The name and password to enter the server will be posted shortly.
4. During EACH match in the tourney, AT LEAST 2 users must have Pokémon Online open, present on the aforementioned server,and select "Become a Spectator/Watch This Battle" and become spectators. These two or more users will be watching the battle to the end and observing the battle logs. This is to have a witness for disconnects and/or be rules consultants/judges (i.e., someone uses a Pokémon that they didn't register, use Gen. 5 stuff, etc.)

Banned Pokemon and Abilities


-Entrants may register two additional Pokémon (aside from their team of 6) to swap into their team between battles. If a competitor is caught using a Pokémon aside from the total of 8 registered, that competitor will be disqualified.

-There will be 32 total entrants in the tournament. If there is not enough it will be cut down to 16.

Final Notes:
Prize will be announced later on.
Please post any questions here. Post Entries in this thread using the following template:

Just keep it at the setting it is now. That's just for letting others know that you're an OU, UU, etc. player. That is of no relevance in this tournament because we've already set the rules so don't worry about it.

@ Serenade:

The team tier box is where you type your tier (OU,UU,NU etc.) However, don't touch it, It's automatic so in conjunction w/ your team. BTW, you're playing a UU team (apart from Umbreon, which isn't really good in OU.), you sure you don't want to change it to OU?

BTW, I've posted the invitation thread on Smogon, Entries should start pouring in after 48 hours.

Wait, I just said that if they aren't already existing TREZ members, they aren't invited. I thought I made that clear. No hard feelings against them, We just intended this to be a TREZ tournament, not an open one.

Half my friends in Smogon have TREZ accounts, In fact, I learned about Smogon because of them. BTW, there's also a Smogon Tourney on March 25 2011 in 3 metagames, OU ADV, OU DPP, and OU BW. Wanna join in Saberman? It'll be good practice for the tourney. (It could be the other way around.)

Alright, that's good. Hopefully the ones that do have accounts participate. And nah, it's fine. I've gone on the competitive circuits a lot in the past and had an amazing record (I used to be really good until I stopped for a while, I think my win-to-loss ratio was 6:1) but I don't really want to enter top-level competition outside of my inner circle just yet because I'm really rusty after I stopped playing in late 2010. I have to regain my touch first. Besides, I'm busy, the only reason why I'm in this tournament is because it's here.

Alright, from what I can see things aren't looking good for the tournament due to the storm Black and White are stirring up. What do you guys propose we do? Hold off until Generation 5 has been played enough, incorporate it into the tourney and then revive the tourney later on? I don't think there is ANY way we're going to get enough people using only Gens 1-4 at this point. As much as I want to, there is no way we're getting publicity. Nearly everyone on PO has moved on to Gen. 5 as it is.

I don't think Yatterman has been checking this thread, and I can't edit the first post. I'll tell him about it.

I have PM'd Yatterman to edit the dates to give us more time, because of the following reason: if you read the recent posts, you'd see that we postponed the tournament until a later date. There will be plenty more time to register.
