You see, I would join the tournament but tbe biggest blunder on my part was giving canonically boosted stats to Autumn's Weavile and Milotic, and working on her Espeon.

I get it's just for fun but I feel like it's my obligation to make it as canon accurate to her as possible and that's just not possible. I do hope everyone else has fun

//actually reblogging this one since I made a bigger change to the rules

(OOC POST) AGG CUP RULES

Ok so here's, the rules for the upcoming tournament. If you have any questions, please contact @elpendrive or @ask-games-galore through DMs.

Please read the rules below before applying to the tournament.

EDIT (Nov 10th 24 2:35am GMT): For the sake of balancing, all Pokémon should be set to Level 100

EDIT (Nov 10th 24 6:21am GMT): Updated the rule regarding team sizes.

Battle Rules & Regulations

The tournament will be played in Pokémon Showdown's National Dex AG format.

Due to the format's limitations, Dynamaxing or Gigantamaxing will not be present. Every other battle gimmick is fair game.

All Pokémon must be set to Level 100

Due to how Wonder Guard works, Terastallizing Shedinja is strictly prohibited.

Each game will consist of a single elimiation match.

The amount of Pokémon each player must take to battle is equal to the number of Pokémon on the team of the player with the least Pokémon*

At the end of a game, either player must report to @ask-games-galore or @elpendrive with a replay of the battle.

All replays, team sheets and results will be made public.

There is no prize.

*For example, if A has 6 mons and B has 4, A must use only 4 Pokémon to match B during his battle.

Teambuilding

As stated previously, all teams will be built on National Dex AG

All teams must have at least three (3) Pokémon, up to six (6)

Due to my inability to change Pokémon Showdown's code, Fakémon will not be allowed.

If your muse is a sentient Pokémon or an Eeby Deeby, they may also take part in the tournament by being an active combatant.

To know if a Pokémon can be used in this tournament, ask yourself the following questions:

Is this Pokémon trusting of/under the ownership of my Muse or one of their friends?

Is this Pokémon in any condition to actually battle?

Would this Pokémon be alright with battling?

If the answer to all the questions above is "Yes", then you may use the Pokémon in your team.

Do

Ask questions about the tournament! If you aren't sure about something, feel free to DM @ask-games-galore or @elpendrive to ask for help!

Check team sheets once they're made public! Everyone can see every submitted team, so use that to your advantage.

Discuss things with your opponent before starting a match. Communication is key, after all!

Don't

Alter your team composition or movesets after the tournament has started. Unless there was an actual mistake by your part you'd like to change last minute, that is.

Be an asshole. Any form of harassment, bad manners or unsportsmanlike conduct will not be tolerated.

Apply multiple times for multiple Muses. One application per player pls.

Try to be a smartass. You can't just say you can do something cuz it's not banned by the rules. Use some common sense and don't be an asshole.

(The Absence Of) Canon Compliance

This is not intended to be 100% canon accurate. If you want to make each Pokémon in your party match your Muse's team down to the last EV point, then feel free to do it! If you want to add a Mega to your team despite your Muse not even knowing what Mega Evolution is, then feel free to do it! The only thing required to match is the Pokémon's species.

Whether the AGG Cup is canon to your Rotomblr blog's story or not is completely up to you. Whether it was via simulated battles, Union Circle, or any other method you may think of. And if you don't want it to have an impact on your Muse's story, then feel free to consider this non-canon!

Apply Here

You have until November 19th 2024, Midnight GMT to apply; Use www.timeanddate.com if you are not sure what time this refers to in your time zone.

Man ill needs a savior such as you

Enough talk! Have at you!

[ask-games-galore]

Just someone who wants to see people respond to such a hypothetical.

Now for another: what makes a man? Is the material goods they have gathered, the actions and deeds they have committed, or is the relationships they have made in life and the legacy that continues?

What is a man?

*throws glass*

A miserable little pile of secrets!

[ask-games-galore]

If you could be a god, what would your domain be?

I've seen this same ask around Rotomblr. On a lot of blogs... Who are you and what are you scheming?

I'll refrain from answering this question for personal reasons.

[ask-games-galore]

I'll post details about the Tournament in a Week or so,we're currently busy trying to solve a few issues regarding "the mod", whatever that is, having "finals" this week and "having to study".

[ask-games-galore]

ok so what if I hosted a tournament?

as in pokémon battling tournament

[ask-games-galore]

One day you'll get it, worry not

HOOPA MAIL

A portal opens up in front of you, and a hand comes out of it, holding a box containing...

The One Ring!

@ask-games-galore

What is this.

[ask-games-galore]

One ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, 

One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them; 

In the Land of Mordor where the shadows lie.

HOOPA MAIL

A portal opens up in front of you, and a hand comes out of it, holding a box containing...

@ask-games-galore

What is this.

[ask-games-galore]

Ok so a few updates

1- Thanks for 200 followers

2- Stop reblogging Hoopa Mail, it expired last month and we haven't been sending packages away for a while now.

3- I think I'm cancelling the Rotomblr Hunger Games thing cuz I haven't figured out a way to make it appropriate for this blog without taking away from HG's essence (considering the sheer amount of violence and gore and blood in the series)

Anyway what I'm tryna say is I'll get around to do some bigger event sooner or later. Just not Hunger Games (for the time being), maybe I'll do something for the 200 follower celebration later on.

[ask-games-galore]

that's often how it happens, they appear at random and disappear just as suddenly

Good to know, I guess.
