Are we allowed to pick more than one of the same pokemon? If so, I got dibs on a full team of Caterpies.

Eh, sure, I've played that I think 3 times and won once (using the TPP squad). No idea how to actually go about picking, but w/e, this sounds fun.

Awesome! I'll post the actual thread tomorrow, though it would be pretty cool if interested people could still post here just so I get an idea of the number of contenders.

Don't hesitate to start thinking about a team for those who know the mechanics a bit, the site's teambuilder is still very good. For the others, I'll post quick explanations tomorrow, because it's not really something you can do in a totally random way if you don't want to bet rolled over by some angry dragon 😜

Anyway, cheers y'all, and particularly the beginners, you sure won't regret it 😁

I pm'd the bastard... MESSAGE ME BACK DEFAGO or you lose by forfeit

(anyway obvs game for round 2)

Also if anyone's interested, here's what the original tourney looked like, and here's where we ended up bracket-wise with tourney #1

(If Defago vs. me doesn't happen soon enough wanna just declare us joint silver medalists with Drak in 1st for the sake of putting it into the annals of BEA game history?)

Yeah, I know, I only like to organize #2s, imagination issues, etc. Also still no news from dbz and Defago's battle so fuck them 🫵

OK, so there's a Pokémon battle simulator on the internet called Pokémon Showdown where you can build your team and play against each other. There's nothing to dowload, it's totally free, it's like heaven. Thanks to Jack for this (and the idea of the tourney itself), and that's where the battles will occur.

The principle of the tournament itself is pretty obvious, it's just about building a team and battle each other. Obviously there will be certain rules (don't even think about getting Mewtwo, Lugia and Kyogre in the same team, eh) but we'll see that later.

Before, I'd like to know who is interested in participating. There will only be one or two threads for the whole thing so no risk of messing with the organization of other tourneys. No need to be an expert, it's for fun, so just get a Charizard and come 😄 That said, it will be an active tourney in the sense that you'll have to play, and not just vote, so just sign up if you're sure to able to battle kinda regularly. Not every day obviously, we're not in a hurry and there's the timezones problem, but less than once every two weeks will make the thing sink and be forgotten, like the other one.

Seems a bit complicated/time consuming, but it really isn't, building a team is great fun, a battle doesn't last more than 5-10 minutes, and there's nothing quite like throwing an ice beam at a Dragonair. Also, we'll only be able to make this if we're enough, so get motivated!
