[35 / 6 / ?]
So anyone thinking about participating? >This competition will use Double Battle format. >Players may use any Pokémon from the National Pokédex. However, only up to two of the following Pokémon may be registered to the Battle Box: Mewtwo, Mew, Lugia, Ho-Oh, Celebi, Kyogre, Groudon, Rayquaza, Jirachi, Deoxys, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Phione, Manaphy, Darkrai, Shaymin, Arceus, Victini, Reshiram, Zekrom, Kyurem, Keldeo, Meloetta, Genesect, Xerneas, Yveltal, Zygarde. >Players may use only Pokémon found, caught, hatched from an Egg, or received through a special promotion in Pokémon X or Pokémon Y. >In addition, Pokémon brought over from Pokémon Black, Pokémon White, Pokémon Black 2, or Pokémon White 2 Versions via Poké Transporter can participate in this competition. >Register 4–6 of your Lv. 1–100 Pokémon to your Battle Box. All Pokémon in this competition will automatically become Lv. 100 for the duration of each match. I can see a lot of Knock-Off users and Seismic Toss Mega Kanga being used.

>>20007120 >Players may use any Pokémon from the National Pokédex. >Players may use only Pokémon found, caught, hatched from an Egg, or received through a special promotion in Pokémon X or Pokémon Y. What exactly is the point of saying these two statements when that rules out more than half of the list of Legendary Pokémon allowed?

>>20007281 On the one hand, I absolutely am a complete moron for missing that line.
On the other, why would someone at TPCi be so lazy as to include the Kalos-born rule clause if you're going to promptly ignore it anyway.

It's the closest thing we've gotten to VGC2010 since... VGC2010 and I fucking loved VGC10 so I'm super excited about this.
I have always been a Groudonfag so I have been thinking of making something with Kyogre instead so I can have some variety on my life.
>Using Kyogre >Variety Yeah, I know but whatever. It'll be a new experience for me.
I hope VGC15 will allow big legends considering ORAS will probably have a buttload of them.

>>20007376 Maybe you can have Kyogre team up with Palkia. It's got only 2 weaknesses and you could give it max Defense with some points in HP and Sp.Attack while it's holding.... Assault Vest! Holy moley, Assault Vest could be extremely useful, until it gets Knocked Off.

I've been running this team on showdown and it seems promising. If I'm not sure what the other guy will do or if they have status/prankster users I lead with Klefki+Arceus otherwise I just lead with Kyorge+Ludicolo and surf to win.

>>20008282 Why wouldn't you use Knock Off in doubles? It is used and it's just about as good as it is in singles. The only doubles format you don't really see any knock off is in VGC this year because most mons learn it as a BW2 tutor move.

>>20007377 I think you missed my actual point. OP posted the rules for this tourney. These rules include the typical Kalos-only line every previous event's had. But then it also says "by the way, anything you import via Transporter is okay too". It's like saying bags of M&Ms may only be red in color... but you may also find every single other color in a bag too. It is a dumb thing that I've invested three replies too many into, so I will leave it at that.
