Legendary Pokémon

Judging by the postitive feedback in the New tourney? thread, I have decided to try to get this one off the ground, so to speak.

Here are the rules:
- The matches will take place on Shoddy Battle. Click on the link to download the program if you do not have it.

~These matches shall take place on the Official Server, just so everyone knows where to go for their match.

- This is a single elimination tournament. Once you lose, you are out.

~The excepetion to this rule is the first round, where each group will fight each other once, and the one with the best record will win that section and advance.

- The matches will be OU matches, with the following clauses active: Evasion Clause, Sleep Clause, Freeze Clause, Species Clause, OHKO Clause, Timed Battle

~The OU tier includes all Pokemon excpet for Ubers

~The Ubers for this tourney are defined as Arceus, Mew, Mewtwo, Wobbuffet, Wynaut, Ho-oh, Lugia, Latias, Latios, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Deoxys (all forms,) Garchomp, Shaymin-S, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina (all forms,) and Manaphy. Any player reported using any of these Pokemon will be eliminated from the tournament. For proof, please send me the battle log. Anyone willing to question this list should PM me.

- Everything new in Platinum is allowed in this tourney.

- Just so that this tourney doesn't take until summer, everyone must complete their battles within a week, unless there is an extreme circumstance brought to my attention.

- After a battle, both battlers should PM me. I hope both of you will be honest to admit who won.

Will we have to use the same team for the whole tournament?

No, feel free to change your team.

When will the tournament start? I know about the 16 members but most of us won't have any time for battling when the school begins

Esiotsalb, ftw! =]
and I wouldn't think its fair if we were allowed to change teams every match.

If we are not to change teams,we won't be able to watch other matches so as not to learn the others' teams,and it will not be so much fun.

Also for being sure someone hasn't change any of his pkmn we must also register our teams...and that will also reveal a part of our strategy
