Hey everyone! I'd like to propose something cool and interesting that will be a great way to try out the X and Y metagame!
My idea: Start a forum tournament for X and Y!
This would be something that the clans could participate in, but if decided on it could just be an "everyone join and have fun" tourney. The tourney would be held over wifi, since Showdown will probably lag too much and tiers will so scrambled it's almost pointless.
If enough people like this idea, I will make another thread for sign-ups and an official set of rules for the tourney.
I think it's a great way to have new people come to the forum, for one, and to let ever the less competitive player to have some fun.
Who's in?
FYI: The poll will close 10/12/13 at midnight, so if you know someone who hasn't see this, try to get the word out to them.

(I moved this to the tournament board since it seems better to post it here.) Anyways, I think this would be fun. Although I think that if we are going to do this, why not have this tournament just include Kalos Pokemon? I think it would be fun to have a tournament with all new Pokemons.

That's a really good idea, although we should probably ban pokemon with a BST of 600 or over just to slightly balance the game. Also, I'm not sure if the wifi on my 3DS works.

You will not deny me my use of the possible Fairy type Togekiss!!

I think we'll do it sort of like a normal VGC event, and now that I've seen that a lot of people want to it so its fair to say that people can start planning their teams now. *An official rule and sign-up thread will be post sometime soon*

And it's singles, right?

I think in the meantime, we can at least set down some standards for the tourney. We should probably go singles 6v6, and since X and Y will only allow 1 mega-Pokemon per team that will be a rule as well.

I don't think I will be able to battle on Wi-Fi...We could try doing it on a sub-site of Showdown...It won't lag as much.

That's true, they'll have to get all of the sprites and update the team builders and everything crazy like that. It'll be cure chaos on PS for a while, so sorry Rychu, but I think wifi will be easier for now.
