Several reasons: potential lack of interest, exams, time constraints etc. There should probably be a PO general thread first, and any tourneys/leagues could sprout from interest in that. I didn’t mean to step on anyones toes; I just think eliminating fairly meagre legendaries (Entei, Articuno etc) won’t really solve the problem. Why not just ban hacked Pokemon, or Pokemon traded from the GTS? A Lv.100 Hydreigon from the GTS has just as much chance as a legendary of being hacked.

...Seems a little odd to ban OHKO moves with 30% accuracy when King's Rock and the like are allowed and most attacks 2HKO anyways, but okay then. |

No PO - Why? Well, you bought Black and/or White right? So why not use it? If you wanted to play it just for the story... well... that's why people have emulators. If you didn't care for the story and just wanted to battle, you would have just played on PO and never bought the game. So now you have the option to do both and you guys only want to play on PO. The easy route. This is the only thing I won't be changing my mind on.
Legendary Ban - Why? As I've said, we've had past problems with legends being illegitimate. But even without that, there are only 47 or so Legends out of 649 Pokemon. More than half of these Legends are either Uber or NU/UU. This leaves us with about 18 OU Legends. So really? You're going to argue about 20 Pokemon when you have like over 200 maximum evolutionary available. In addition, Legends tend to lead to a lot of "OMG, need to reset so I can catch a Legendary with better Nature or IVs!" Meanwhile, other Pokemon tend to just be "Lemme hatch some eggs." While you can argue both are extremely time consuming when you have piss poor luck, at least with an Egg, you can try to choose a 2nd best choice of hatched Pokemon, but with a legend, if you don't find your ideal Pokemon, you have nothing or a legend with stats you don't like at all. I might change my mind if enough people petition it, but it means a lot more work in checking legitimacy. No Dream World - Why? Someone asked online. Also claiming Sand Rush Excadrill will rule the tournament. Well it's simple: Dream World has not been released yet outside of Japan due to the disasters of the recent few weeks. We cannot expect them to release any DW Pokemon anytime soon and even if they did, there are no guarantees that any of them will be Drought Ninetales or Drizzle Politoed. With that in mind, keep Excadrill in mind as you build your team. In addition, this limits the need to ban anything like Drizzle/Swift Swim or Speed Boost Blaziken or anything like that, which most people will argue about endlessly on exactly how overpowered they are or not. |

What about those of us that have the game but our wi-fi and ds don't get along so we can't use the b/w games competitively yet.

I agree on the rules, no legends whatsoever is a bit iffy though. But we really should ban wobba.

I just realized something- We CAN'T do Single 6vs6. That's the one issue with B/W multiplayer- they have set rules for Lv50 matches, which is 'bring 6, choose 3'. Well, for singles. For Doubles, it's 'bring 6, choose 4'. I forget Triples atm.
Also, what about a Wonder Launcher Clause? |

/sigh I forgot about wobby.
I guess I will come up with some kind of uber list to ban. But to prevent cheating, everyone is going to have to save their battles and upload it so they can be reviewed for problems. They do still have the Vs Recorder Video uploading right? |

Yeah they have. Also Kin you CAN still have 6v6 battles, the catch is that there isn't auto leveling...

Hmm. Odd. I had a 6v6 IR battle with my friend and we were auto-leveled to 50. Are they really penalizing us with only 3v3s in WiFi battles?

Yup, my theory is that they will give back the auto-leveling option in Grey, for another reason to buy that game.
We can still have 6v6 battles, but we'd have to agree on a level. |
04-11-2011, 12:12 AM | #42 |
TOO SLOW! LOL

I'm interested in this, but the level thing is the major problem.
I suggest 50, mostly because I'd have to level my guys up otherwise, but I suppose majority rules. Taking the level issue in mind we could just do 3 on 3s, as not awesome as that is.

Maybe we redo the poll? lol.
With a level 50 cap, we have the loss of Dragonite, Tyranitar, and Hydreigon, which could effect a lot of people's play styles. The other thing which I suspect from everyone who voted for "All Species" will be using imported Pokemon from Gen 4 (maybe even Gen 3!) and would be above level 50 already.

Level 100 is certainly doable, it just might be painful for those of us (me) who have none.
If everyone else is down with level 100 battles then by all means its doable, we probably need more opinions on it before we can do anything.

Grinding to level 100 is made easier.. Also half my team is already level 100. But for another idea. If we do triple battles we can use the auto leveling system and still bring 6 pokemon.

Lucky Egg+E4+EntralinkEXP^^^= Lv100 in no time. But drop the EntralinkEXP^^^ if you don't have any RL friends/Siblings with the game. Guess that doesn't apply to Rotation? *Undefeated in Rotation* |

You're going to lose people either way. Some of you will NOT want to run a team of six new creatures while some of you won't have to abandon your old friends because they were underleveled to begin with. For starters, there's at least one person here who is very partial to his dragons and will NOT want to be told, "Level 50, biatch. Either you re-raise them or else you don't get to use them. And lol too bad so sad if you wanted to use dragons! " Seeing as he's the person running the show, you may already be fighting a losing fight for Level 50s, Kind.
I dunno. A lot of these problems can easily be avoided with a P-O tourney. Perhaps the best option would be to run a P-O tourney for 6v6 singles and a gimmick tourney (like 3v3 or all Lvl 50s) for the DS tourney. Have two tourneys, basically: one that isn't malfunctional for 6v6 singles and one that appears to be so.
