I know there was a Pokemon Showdown! Tournament a while ago, but THIS one should hopefully work out better.

Here's a link to Pokemon Showdown!: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/

So the tier is HACKMONS! To make things easier on everyone who has to build teams for this we won't be doing Balanced Hackmons which has restrictions. Hackmons is basically giving movesets and stats and abilities to pokemon to allow for things like Wondertomb and Contrary Serperior. Not only does this mean you can have your Sturdy Shedinja (which would prevent death by any means other than entry hazard and status affliction), but it also means you can get a Contrary Black Kyurem that knows moves like Superpower. Yes, even illegal movesets can work in it!

A guide to Hackmons (the rules should still apply to Gen 6): http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/pure-hackmons-gen-v.3475624/

Now, there have to be some rules, so here they are:
  • none
  • You can have up to 6 pokemon on your team
  • There aren't any tier restrictions in Hackmons, so you can use ubers if you'd like
  • You ARE allowed to use legal pokemon sets but such a strategy may not be the best idea
  • If you lose a match, you can choose to Rebuy for a second chance in the tournament. The way this'll work is that the bracket will be set-up as Double Elimination and if you lose you can rebuy for the chance to go back in the bracket. But if you don't choose to rebuy, then you won't have the opportunity to advance in the loser bracket for the chance to go on to finals.
In terms of completing the tournament, once we start I'll declare which battles have to be completed at a given time and competitors will have 72 hours to arrange and complete their respective battles and report their results to me. Failure to do so will result in disqualification. I'll also have a bracket posted that'll be updated periodically as the matches are being done.

If you have any questions on the Hackmons tier or how this tournament will be run, feel free to ask!
