Here are the GENERAL rules of thumb (Generally agreed upon, modified when necessary)
>tfw I realized I didn't remove that pokegen in the OPoh well
Showderp Rules
1a) Champ is claimed when previous Champ calls NEW CHAMP in the thread.
1b) Next champ is whoever claims champ with a name & tripcode the soonest after the new champ call.
1c) Use your showdown name as your champ name to avoid confusion.
2) When champ calls new team / new champ is in, first 6 people to reply with valid pokemon form the team. Some setups are stored in the pastebin.
2a) Don't make uber setups unless the champ asks for it
2b) If same pokemon is called twice, second one is ignored unless it is more specific.
2c) If two mega pokemon are chosen, champ puts stones on both and decides which to mega evolve in the match.
3a) Champ will occasionally call NEW TEAM and this is done at their discretion
3b) Champ must not be a faggot and go with the suggestions given. Small mistakes are allowed. If champ doesn't go with suggestions, he is impeached and replaced with a new champ from the thread.
4) Intentionally forfeiting, disconnecting and/or timestalling is not allowed. You fight until your pokemon or your opponent's pokemon are KO'd. If you know your Internet connection is currently very unstable (cannot finish a 30-turn match without disconnecting), do not champ.
