    Ever wonder how useful Flygon could be if he couldn't use Earthquake OR Outrage? What about Togekiss without Air Slash and Body slam, or Jirachi without Iron Head? Next to useless for annoying the shit out of someone, right? What about Scizor without Bullet Punch, U-Turn, or Bug Bite? Well now you can stop theorymoning and put it into practice in the...

    NO STAB TOURNAMENT

    This is the sign up thread in which people can sign up to join the tournament until it fills up

    The first round starts the day after it fills up, when I(or oneballjay) post the thread for the first round. The round will go for a week, or until battles finish, as will all previous rounds.

    I hope this turns out to be fun for everyone!


    Rules
    * The special rule of this tournament is that all Pokemon can not use STAB moves. This means damaging moves of the same type as the Pokemon may not be used. Moves classified as "Other" may still be used, for example, Kindgra may still use Dragon Dance, but not Outrage or Waterfall, while Scizor can use Iron Defense, but cant use Bug Bite, Bullet Punch, or U-Turn. Pokemon that change their type in any way will not be able to use moves of their ORIGINAL type. Moves that deal damage, but do not get STAB, such as Night Shade, Seismic Toss, Counter, and Mirror Coat, are allowed
    *If at any point your opponent uses a STAB move, make sure to save the log, and if you lose, you may show me the log and i will disqualify them or replace them with a sub.
    * The tier for this tournament is OverUsed (OU), which means no Pokémon in the Uber tier can be used. The Pokémon in the Uber tier are the ones in this page: http://www.smogon.com/dp/tiers/uber However, please note that Wynaut IS ALLOWED
    * Each round goes Tuesday-Wednesday. Matches not finished with both players inactive will be decided by a RNG.
    * Players are required to save their logs, but not send them to me. Simply PM me (ingame or in the forums) saying who won the match. If here is any conflict it will be resolved by a mod, to which the logs will then be sent.
    * All battles shall be played on Beta Server at the Pokemon Online client unless both players agree to play on another server/client. If there is any disagreement follow the rule as stated.
    * Battle rules: Standard Clauses. Standard clauses include:
    - OHKO Clause
    - Evasion Clause
    - Freeze Clause
    - Sleep Clause
    - Species Clause

    Guidelines for Joining a Tournament


    * Read everything on the sign-up thread
    * Follow all the rules. If there is a rule which you don't agree on, don't join
    * Get your match completed on time! Schedule a time with your opponent through Private Message.
    * The decision of the tour host is basically final; Consult any Pokemon Online tournament staff if you don't agree on something.
    * Sportsmanship must be exhibited.
    * Scouting of any form is not allowed without the discretion of the players.

    Hidden power still gets stab, so no, you can't use it if it's the same type as the poke
