    [​IMG] ORAS Ubers Restrictions Tournament [​IMG]

    As the title implies, this is a standard ORAS Ubers tournament with restrictions. The restrictions are as follows:
    • Groudon may not hold a Red Orb.
    • Mega Salamence may not know Dragon Dance.
    • Xerneas may not know Geomancy while holding a Power Herb.
    • Darkrai may not know Dark Void and Nasty Plot in the same set.
    Matches will be played in the ORAS Ubers tier with Sleep, Species, Team Preview, and Self-KO clauses active. Matches will be BO1, and finals will be BO3.
    Each round and signups will last one week unless stated otherwise later.

    with these restrictions, it'll basically just be BW2 Ubers with a few extra mons
    I just don't really like the concept in general, that and you would /have/ to require people to send in teams for approval with these kind of restrictions, along with the others I would suggest but I'm not going to because read the beginning of this sentence

    decline 1

    OK the Darkrai restriction is just completely arbitrary and I have no idea where it came from. I'm not in favour of this one.
    The other ones I can see though. GeoXern, Primaldon especially were very contentious when they were introduced and I'd be curious to see a meta without them. I would however say a Shadow Tag ban would be more interesting than a ban on DD MegaMence. Primaldon and Geoxern don't really require any special policing and nor does Shadow Tag. So I guess I'd support a tour with bans on Geoxern, Primaldon and Shadow Tag.

    I don't think the tour would be like BW2 Ubers at all considering Xerneas, Yveltal, and a myriad of other mega evolutions would still be present along with a few different mechanics like weather no longer being permanent. However, the point about entrants being required to submit their teams does seem like it could be potentially be a problem. I don't have a problem with adding Shadow Tag to the banlist. However, restricting Mega Salamence and Darkrai are primary restrictions that I would like to see, so unless there is an alternate way of doing this that would be acceptable, then I don't want to do the tour.
