a question about the tournament. is there a deadline as to when the battle has to be done? like can you submit a battle hours after opponents being assigned?

There isnt a set deadline but it's advised to warn both me and your opponent if something might delay your next battle

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.

If you cannot access the form, DM me
