Round 3 ... FITE! Rules and Regulations: Spoiler Introduction: A lot of Pokemon do not get to be part of the NU Metagame. BW2 had a lower tier between NU and LC, called NEU. There are a lot of potential in a lot of underused Pokemon in the Metagame. So this Tour focuses on the Pokemon that might be good and have potention if there was a XY NEU. Based on October 2014 NU usage statistics, all Pokemon under 4% usage percent, with some exceptions, are allowed on teams. All battles must be Played in NU. Spoiler Link to NU Usage Stats: http://stats.pokemon-online.eu/past-stats/october-2014/XY NU/ranked_stats.txt N.B.: XY Usage stats are being used as ORAS' are a mess and incomplete, but the gen of the tour is ORAS, and ORAS bans apply as well as those made in XY. This is why the bans listed below are needed. Format: ~ Teams must be subjected to NU banlist, and all Pokemon used must be under 4% usage. In addition, new LU to NU drops,(Klefki, Tangrowth, Zoroark), new Mega Evolutions (Lopunny, Pidgeot, Camerupt, Sceptile) and Venomoth (For balancing purposes) are banned from this Tour. You are allowed to use Mega Steelix. ~ Clauses : Sleep Clause, Wifi Battle, Species Clause, Self KO Clause ~ Best of 1, Finals will be best of 3 ~ 1 week of signups ~ No Aim in terms of Players ~ Teams must be Forum PMed, or PMed on Server to insure it follows the Tournament. ~ Deadlines are 1 week, coin flip if inactive. Update: Mega Glalie has been banned. You do not need to change and PM your teams to me again. If you are running Mega Glalie, replace it with another Pokemon with under 4% usage, based on the October stats. You are still allowed to use Mega Steelix. Matchups: @E.T. vs @La.Casparov Weavile vs @-Mike- @Black Ghost vs @ZoroDark <-- This spot was decided by coinflip. OnceUpon and ZoroDark both showed activity, so a usage of a coinflip was needed. snaga vs @Kea Deadline at December 30th 7 PM EST ( 12 AM GMT)
