Tournament Ideas

NO! Just, no. Apart from Triple Battles not being allowed, doubles tourneys have happened before and they always kind of seem to fail due to partners. (Also refs hate them)

 

You know you don't need 4 people to battle in a double battle... Only 2, just like most other battles. Also, I don't hate them. :|

 

A "Challeneg cup" tourny, where you get rolled a number of pokémon at the start, say 10, and you get those mons with all moves and have to use them for the entire tourny, starting with 3v3 battles (most people will have three good mons) and culminating in a 6v6 final.

I'd even be happy to run it.

 

Just storing this here so we don't forget...

[20:03:43] TheEvilDookie: tourney idea
[20:03:45] TheEvilDookie: idk if anyone said it
[20:03:47] TheEvilDookie: all legends

[20:09:38] Zoa: any pokemon

[20:11:03] TheEvilDookie: im open to variations
[20:14:00] Zoa: so
[20:14:03] Zoa: just a tournament
[20:14:08] Zoa: in which you can use any pokemon?
[20:14:23] TheEvilDookie: wynaut
[20:14:31] TheEvilDookie: simple enough
[20:16:40] Zoa: there are many tournament ideas floating around
[20:16:48] Zoa: probably will just poll to see which one we do next
[20:16:56] Zoa: also there are different formats we could use
[20:16:59] Zoa: like a bracket style
[20:17:00] TheEvilDookie: but i cant vote over there ;_;
[20:17:05] Zoa: yea we can make it on pe2k too
[20:17:07] TheEvilDookie: i like brackets
[20:17:07] Zoa: and like combine
[20:17:09] Zoa: or
[20:17:12] Zoa: kind of like ladder
[20:17:20] Zoa: you can face anyone
[20:17:23] Zoa: once
[20:17:24] Zoa: a week
[20:17:26] Zoa: or
[20:17:28] Zoa: once a month
[20:17:28] TheEvilDookie: i still like the idea of
[20:17:30] TheEvilDookie: ladder style
[20:17:31] TheEvilDookie: then
[20:17:32] TheEvilDookie: top 8
[20:17:37] TheEvilDookie: with bracket style after that
[20:17:43] Zoa: thats possible too
[20:17:44] TheEvilDookie: #1 vs #8
[20:17:47] TheEvilDookie: and so on

 

Ladder style? As in, you fight the person ahead of you, and the loser gets docked down a spot, and vice versa?

I always thought that was kinda lame...brackets are better imo.

 

no..kinda like a league, with w/l/d agaisnt various people, then you go into elimination for the points total

A tournament like this could be interesting. Maybe with a lack of the cards, though.

Hi

 

I remember the Duel Island tournament!

Please, please can we do this? Without the cards?

 

Ok, so you prefer a non-bracket format? Similar to WTP's link, or moreso to this one...

I see that my points contradict each other greatly.

 

Anymore ideas before I make a poll? So far I have...

Regular Tournament
Choose Your Opponent's Pokemon
Double Battle
Battle Factory
Wonder Shooter
Basics Only
Monotype
Use Any Pokemon (including legends)
Trick Room
Other

 

Battle Factory?

Also how about 1v1 Tournament. When you battle someone you battle 3 seperate 1v1's. Best 2 out of 3 wins and advances.

 

I like Battle Factory. We should get Chris to run it again! :kawaii:

 

I vote for Battle Pike.
