    Really simple challenge. The top 40 Pokemon in the (unraked) usage stats of June are banned from this challenge, you can find them here. With this limitation you are being forced to run uncommon and unorthodox Pokemon let's see how many people can actually do this!

    In order to participate in this challenge you must put the following information in the thread.

    PO Account: Must be a blank account with no previous ladder record
    Team Style: Just so we can get an idea of what you plan to use, doesn't have to be final

    In addition to that if you should post updated ladder peaks in this thread once you reach at least 1300, accompanied by screenshots. You should also post an importable of your team and a few logs to show it off in action.

    The user who achieves the highest ranking will receive a trophy, for bragging rights and stuff. The top 3 gets a colored user title.

    Make sure that when you are laddering on your alt for the challenge you always have a team that fits the challenge. Anyone trying to cheat the system will face a punishment up to a ban from all future challenges.

    This challenge ends July 15th

    in as Bisharp. Not sure about my team, but you can bet because I'm too lazy to think up of an entirely new team I'll recycle some Pokemon from my old teams.

    Pretty much just a simple spike stacking team based around a SubSalac Cobalion sweep. Nidoqueen provides SR for the team and a much needed Heracross/Mienshao check, Accelgor is usually dead turn one, went Modest because after the sash is broken I'm faster than everything (killed a couple Scarf Rotom-C's with that lol) Azumarill checks the annoying Fire types in the tier and provides some nice priority. Krookodile was originally in Choice Scarf Swarm Durant's place but I was extremely weak to Virizion and so Aerial Ace Durant actually filled the gap nicely. Rotom-N just blocked spin and was actually really good, reliably beat both Blastioise and Hitmontop and was also my check to Bulky Waters. Finally Cobalion is just a SubSD Salac Set with Close Combat and Stone for coverage, Stone Edge was chosen over something like Iron Head for it's ability to nail 3 specific Pokemon, Crobat, Zapdos and Chandelure who are all extremely annoying to this team.
