  • Pokemon Generation IV tournament

    Something I've been thinking about here is starting a tournament on here for those of us who have HeartGold and SoulSilver. As of the moment, I'm trying to think of a good enough prize, if you will, for the victor. I'm open to suggestions, however, should I wish, I can trade over a super duper rare pokemon as well as the right to call yourself Age of War's Pokemon Champion. The tournament will likely be a single battle at level 50. Hopefully many, if not all of you have this game, will join. To enlist, please reply below stating you'll join. The date will be determined when other members have signed up.

    Hmm... as in set levels to 50... seems cool, I'm in. I hope it's in a while, cause that'll let me throw together a really good team. GOTTA BEAT EM ALL!
    So I'm back, or at least I will be eventually. Trying to reintegrate myself.

        Oooh, a competition! I'll join! What else are the rules? 6 on 6? Banned Pokemon? Banned moves? Time limits?

          Here's what I pulled from the Serebii Forums. I went through and chose the ones best outlined for our usage. However, if more than one person agrees with adding or removing rules, then I will adjust accordingly.

          Sleep Clause
          You can't use sleep inducing moves in opponent's Pokemon when there's another Pokemon in his/her team asleep. Yawn can't be used to PseudoHaze (make opponent switch) when there's another Pokemon asleep caused by you. When the asleep Pokemon awakes or faints, you're free to make another Pokemon of his/her team asleep. Sleeping being caused by Effect Spore or Rest are disconsidered from Sleep Clause.

          Species Clause
          You can't use two of the same Pokemon in a team.

          Evasion Clause
          You can't use moves that increases your evasion. Avoid the use of Acupressure, it has 1/7 chance to double your evasion.

          OHKO Clause
          You are strictly prohibited of using OHKO moves. They are Guillotine, Horn Drill, Fissure and Sheer Cold.

          No Hacks
          Don't need to explain, you are prohibited to use any illegally obtained Pokemon. Hacking parents to breed is also unaccepted, but people can't control this just looking at the stats. Hacking Pokémon with "legit stats" is also not allowed.

          No Ubers
          Uber Pokemon are overpowered Pokemon. Since these are "Standard Rules" you have to use the "Standard Pokemon".
          The current uber list:




          No Hax Items
          These are all the items that relies on luck to activate. These items are:
          Brightpowder, Focus Band, King's Rock, Lax Incense, Quick Claw, Razor Fang, Razor Claw, Scope Lens, Lansat Berry, Stick and Lucky Punch. Note: Scope Lens, Razor Claw and Stick are hax items, but they are the only ones allowed in competitive play, as they just increase the odds of something that can already happen.

          No Disconnecting
          You can't turn off your DS or move away from signal range to end a battle. People can have weak routers so don't always fight with the people if he/she disconnected. Not exactly a rule, but an ethic sense.

          Additional rules:

          Self KO
          You can't use Destiny Bond, Perish Song, Selfdestruct or Explosion to force a tie. People usually dislike the fact he/she lost the last Pokemon in a battle, the rule exists, but it's rarely added as standard since it's also a strategy.

          Item Clause
          Two Pokemon can't hold same items. Using Trick/Switcheroo in a Pokemon and receiving/getting an item that other Pokemon in your team has doesn't break the clause.

          Freeze Clause
          Pokemon can't Freeze two Pokemon at once.

          Party Clause
          You do not have to use six Pokemon for your party. If you wish, you are entitled to less if you feel that that is how much you need.

            Sounds good to me. I am curious if we have to have 6 Pokemon, or if we can use less.

                HBC, I don't think it should be a rule to have to use six. You can use less. As for Platinum, I'm not sure if it's even capable of battling between the versions

                  Yes, it's capable. That's how my brother and I battle. He uses Platinum, I use SoulSilver.

                    Well then yes, other versions will be allowed, as long as they follow the rules stated above.

                      A round-robin seems like a good idea. I'll manage that if you like.

                      Could I suggest that we have a set team of pokemon and this team is made public? It'd make it easier.

                        Sounds fair. My team will be Dragonair, Sceptile, Swampert, Pidgeot(possible change though unlikely), Typhlosion, and Raichu.
