I imagine we'll have a different theme, would love a LC tournament. Monotype would be cool again though, so many new cool poison types like toxapex and alolan muk with favorites like vileplume and dragalge is exciting.

>>30925668 I've always pushed for a LC mono tourny tho knowing how well that goes most types will have their Aegislashes or M-Mawiles that are just a little too OP for LC still.
Typical bans for most of them would be ok but most types would run house to be fair.

>>30927504 i really love the kahuna theme, it sounds happy and pumping at the same time
Shane 4699-6929-9264
>>30927504 Depends. If I think I'm in for a bad time, Gladion/Guzma theme. If even match League Defense title. If
Luna or Raymoo my friend hau,
I use the Kahuna theme for daniel IGN: Luna FC: 3711 7078 1822
Welp, that happened. Guess sword is better then sand castle, who would've guessed.
Mike 2122-6778-7179
>>30927760 You gotta keep in mind, some pokemon really arent good in certain matchups. In ghost vs ghost, i don't think its very good, but against something else like electric or rock, it excells
IGN: Luna FC: 3711 7078 1822
>>30927781 Yeah, was trying a gimmick set, guess I'll save that for another time.
GG, guess I really should run run FS on gengar. I was fucked either way I guess.
>>30927758 >luna >my friend hau Mike 2122-6778-7179
>>30927874 Yeah, its worth experimenting with. Gotta try and keep your team as flexible as possible, i find since Mimikyu has the life orb, no other item suits Gengar as good. Choice items are okay, but don't let me toss out a destiny bond as easily.
IGN: Luna FC: 3711 7078 1822
>>30927917 Destiny bond is just okay as in a situation like that game two you landed the finishing blow meaning you would still win. I just put Tbolt as random fodder.
Anyone want to battle still?
Shuffle 2294-4826-6581
>>30927758 >>30927744 >>30927654 >all this Hau theme usage Damn, am I odd for really hating that tune?
Personally I go for battle royale for practice rounds, probably something more serious if the battle means anytihng. Maybe the box legend theme or the elite four theme.

What's really helped me is to think more about the mind games part of battling rather than straight forward strat.

>>30950572 Oh hey Luna, (Dr. Dredikkus was old IGN dunno if you remember me.)
I've done my favourite 3 types so far
Bug
Ghost
Water
So now those other 3 are what I'm thinking of. Leaning towards dragon just for fun, so many fairies y'know?

>>30950825 Yeah fairy is rather popular, its an amazing type. Dragon would definitely beca challenge but we also have three people doing ice. Personally I think dragon is fine, good selection of pokemon. Post bank is when things will get really good.
Luna 0001-3617-8659

>>30952659 Some notes.
Do nicknames and the Pokeball matter to you?
Pangoro can't have Storm Throw, it needs to be bred from Throh, who isn't available until Pokebank. Replace it with something else.
Isn't Parting Shot banned from online due to being bugged?
I'll add you in the meantime.

Jae 1521-5783-1508
>>30952782 Ah, these are things I wasn't aware of. Let's do this, instead of storm throw, let's do Hammer Arm, and instead of parting shot, let's do Night Slash
Balls and Nicknames don't really matter to me, I have my balltism in quarantine for right now. Adding and I'll be online. If there are any other problems, do let me know. And thank you.

>>30952782 Parting shot can still be used in link battles fyi, just not battle spot.
Cerise: 3969-4672-7931
>>30952880 Whoops, I'm retarded.
Smeargle can sketch Storm Throw from a Pinsir and pass it onto a Pancham.
I'll still replace Parting Shot, though.
Give me a few minutes to inject your team.

Can anyone go in-depth on how this will be played?>This tournament is played in the groups format (small groups of playes fighting to have the best result in their pool) So this means every player will fight against each other but only in their selected type pool and the champion of each type will move on to the double elimination finals? If that's true it seems kind of unfair because isn't there the potential for one-sided scenarios like a Fairy-type user running into an all Poison/Steel team?

>>30953060 Think World Cup group phase followed by double elimination bracket. The seed position will determine where in the bracket you'll be placed
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>30953060 It's likely gonna be a 16 person bracket. So the top 2 will move on from each group.
There is no reality where everything is perfectly fair. You have to be able to deal with those team if you run into them.

>(2). Legendary Pokémon*, Ultra Beasts and Tapus are unable to participate in this tournament. No exceptions. Shit tourney.

Quoted By:
>>30953060 Oh wait. I think i know what you mean.
The pools aren't all of one type. The pools will be of 4 maybe 5 players of randomised types. These groups might get slightly tinkered with so there aren't any of the matchups with SE vs NE STABS eg. Dragon/Fairy, Electric/Ground etc.
The bracket will not be tinkered with. If you get a shitty matchup, you'll need to have a good run in the losers bracket.

There would definitely be a post bank tourney.

>>30958949 Yeah, but I will miss this brand new and limited team experience you know.
After bank we "might" be back to the same ol' set ups. Even with all nerfs and changes, Genies are most of the meta.
In regards to monotype, makes it more interesting with the new teammates, but it wont be the same. I will miss the golden time for poke.

Steel type users! What do you use to cover your weakness to fire? What will you use post bank? Probopass? I kinda wanna use heatran, but I'm already insisting on aegislash and celesteela, and I'd like to avoid half or more of my team bordering on legendary.
