    Setup
    The tournament is very similar to the ladder challenge by @Hannah quite some time ago. At the start of every round, I'll give every participant a team they have to use for that round. The teams are determined by a random number generator, which will generate 6 numbers between 1-50 (50 can be changed, the 6 as well so people can decide which mons they bring). These numbers will correspond in the ORAS OU usage statistics (1 = Talonflame, 2 = Heatran etc) at the moment of the start of the round. To avoid any confusion, I'll give participants their teams both in numbers and in Pokemon, so that there can be no errors in that. Teams will be sent by PM, so that they remain unknown to the other players.

    Organization
    Initially there will be 16 spots for signups, but this can be changed if there is sufficient interest. All rounds will be BO1, as a BO3 finals will take too much time with sending new teams every time. Round will take 1 week each, with the exception for the first round, so I can start a new round every Monday. All battles will be played in ORAS OU with the standard clauses, with Freeze Clause and Disallow Specators being optional.

    Seems easy enough. Its a bit luck based for a tour, but should be fine.

    I'd keep it to 6 and the top 50 mons i mo

    Yeah, the luck element will certainly play a role. Sets can be chosen still obviously. I checked until which number mons remained viable, and both Keldeo and Thundurus appreared in the 40-50 region, to give you an idea.

    I apologize for the late response, I have been fairly busy the past couple of weeks.

    This seems pretty simple, although it would be kinda luck based but I can foresee this being quite fun. Approve 2/2

    I'll add this to the schedule later, unless devo does that before me.
