Top 3 finishers of the mini tournament will get first dibs to be apart of this. (best way to explain is to show me explaining it to someone else)

Me: hat about a 3v3 mini-mini-tournament during the first exhibition battle where the top 2-4 finishers get to battle you in a series of 3v3 battles, consecutively, for the next Exhibition Battle. And to make it challenging for our beloved Head Ref and E4 Member, once one of your Pokemon faints you can't use it in the next battle. Let me show you some examples to make the idea more clear.

Say in the first battle, you use Ambipom, Lopunny, and Chandelure. Ambipom got KO'd and Lopunny got taken down to 50%. You can't use Ambipom in the next battle, and if you use Lopunny then it will be at 50%. Get what I'm saying? Just trying to think of ways to get the majority involved.

WTP: That sounds pretty cool actually. Though, if I'm using literally ONLY those three, I'd really like to have more pokemon to use, lol.

Me: Nah you can use 3 completely different pokemon from battle to battle

..get it?

Haze vs. The Jr. Trainer
Alakazam, Salamence, Infernape, Starmie, Jolteon, Dragonite vs. Infernape, Alakazam, Swampert, Starmie, Salamence, Spiritomb

How did Haze pull this one back? It started with him losing Starmie early in the game due to a specs Alakazam. Swampert got an SR in which started whittling down Haze's team. However, Dragonite got its strength back and started building stats. It came down to the wire with Nite vs. Alakazam at 20%. Dragonite got the necessary moves with sleep talk to buy it time to wake up and KO Jr's last mon. GG


Haze wins and gets $3000
The Jr. Trainer loses and gets $1500
I should get $3000 for reffing unless otherwise stated​

 

It had been a long, interesting, and, most importantly, active day in the URPG. The day started off with a 17-man FFA. During the FFA, an 12-man mini tournament was started where non-participants were able to fill out a bracket for a chance to win $5,000. Everyone's hopes of winning some cash went in the gutter when SLC upset tournament favorite Fossil Fusion in the first round. Despite beind deemed impossible, the mini-tournament finished up in one day. When the mini tournament was done, there was another 14-man FFA. All this activity, and we didn't even make it to the main event yet. It was interesting hearing the new members ask "who's battling tonight, anyway?" and "never heard of these people." Little did these members know that they would be watching two URPG Legends duke it out in a full 6-on-6 battle.

Haze, the former champion, facing off against The Jr. Trainer, a retired Elite 4 member. Members joked about how there wouldn't be any Gen V moves or pokemon used in this battle, and they were partially right. Both battlers started out with Infernape. It wasn't looking too good for Haze out of the gate when he ended up Encored into Fake Out. Already behind, he had an uphill battle ahead of him after the first 2 turns. Haze was set behind once again when a surprise Choice Specs on Alakazam led to his Starmie getting knocked out. The other early pivotal moment was when Swampert set up Stealth Rocks. A lost strategy in Gen V, it would turn out to pay huge dividends for Jr, as Haze was packing both a Salamence and a Dragonite, who are weak to Stealth Rocks. Over the next hour Haze was able to slowly claw his way back up, until at one point it was thought that he had the battle in the bag. However, in one huge turn, Haze's Dragonite used Roost, but Jr's Spiritomb Snatched it. This drew reactions from several members, such as "CLUTCH" and "OOOHHH SH-". The battle remained even until the final two Pokemon came out. Haze's Dragonite against Jr's Alakazam. Dragonite was Toxiced badly, but also had a nice Atk+2 Spd+1 boost. Left with no choice, Dragonite used Rest, while Alakazam sat there with only 20% HP left. The game would come down to Sleep Talk rolls. Roll 1: Icy Wind. Hit, but not enough to KO. Psychic would bring Dragonite into KO range. It came down to the final roll. If it was Rest or Roost, the battle would continue. If it was an attack, Haze wins. Anything else, Junior wins. The second roll was a Roost, essentially locking the battle up for Haze since he would be waking up on the next turn and able to KO. Haze wins. Great game, came down to the wire. Exhibition Battle = successful. Thank you to everyone who participated, especially Haze and Jr, as well as Web for reffing the main battle as well as a few in the mini tournament.
