URPG Devolution Tournament
After many requests, URPG's next tournament will be a basics tournament!
For this, we'll be using Pokemon from your stats in their basic form. All Pokemon used must meet the following criteria.
- The Pokemon MUST be able to evolve (no Mawile or Kangaskhan)
- The Pokemon MUST be used in it's earliest stage (eg no Dusclops, Vigoroth)
- The Pokemon MUST NOT be one of the following:
- Scyther
- Sneasel
- Murkrow
- Lickitung
- Munchlax
- Tangela
- Cottonee
- Porygon
- Cranidos
This list is open to discussion for other Pokemon that should be banned. It's highly unlikely that any that are already banned will be removed from this list.
For the purposes of this tournament, Eviolite will also be banned. While it is useful to provide balance to NFE's in the standard metagame, it has no place in this tournament. DeepSeaTooth and DeepSeaScale are also banned.
The basic Pokemon you use will retain any EM's that they would still be eligible to know in their basic form. Please make sure to check the Ultradex and make sure you know your movesets. Teams are not locked, so you are free to use any Pokemon in each of your battles.
Battle rules will be as follows:
6v6
Revolution or B/W Revolution
Helds On unless agreed by both battlers
No Weather
Standard Terrain
Sleep/Freeze/OHKO/Accuracy/Evasion Clauses
And prizes will be as follows:
1st Place: Complex Pokemon with 3 EM's
2nd Place: Hard Pokemon with 2 EM's
3rd Place: Medium Pokemon with 2 EM's
4th Place: Simple Pokemon with 1 EM
The $10,000 entry fee implemented in the Battle Factory was fairly successful, so you'll also have to ante up for this one. The same rules apply; show up to all your battles or make a sincere attempt to schedule one and your deposit will be refunded when you are knocked out.
Sign ups are open now - the bracket will be posted around June 1st, depending how busy I am. Rounds will last one week each. I am willing to extend this time if you contact me BEFORE the round is over and explain the circumstances.
