    hi, my name is Withoutatrace

    As we all know, Weapon of Choice has been quite popular, and has been asked about recently, so I decided to toss the idea up

    As an introduction:

    Django had said that, "Choice Items have had a huge impact on competitive Pokemon ever since Choice Band was introduced in ADV. While they lock you into a single move, they also grant incredible power or speed. Normally a team would only have 1-2 Choice item users on it, but what happens when you make a team with 6!? This tour would require all teams to be pure Choice users. It creates offensive but heavily prediction based games, and forces you to be creative when teambuilding.", which is what is reinforced even today in the 6th Generation of Pokemon.

    Rules:


    • Weapon of Choice III will be a best of five tournament. One battle in each of: XY Ubers, XY OU, XY UU, XY LU, and XY NU. Competitors may choose the order in which to play them.
    • Standard Clauses apply (Wifi Clause, Species Clause, Sleep Clause, Self-KO Clause)
    • The banlist for each tier will be the one that was in place at the beginning of each round. Test bans will not apply.
    • Every Pokemon must hold a choice Item; these are: Choice Band, Choice Scarf, and Choice Specs - No other item is permitted
    • Any Move/Ability that affects items is banned
    Main Sign-ups would last 1 1/2 weeks, aiming for a 64 person bracket. Any more people would be listed as subs.
    Round 1: 1/2 weeks
    Round 2: 1/2 weeks
    Round 3-Semifinals: 1 week
    Finals: Indefinite, pressing to get shit done

    the op will be more flashy/fancy, just made it short since the tour is known

    Can't say no to an old classic. Approved (3/3) adding to the end of the schedule.
