Welcome, one and all!
I have been meaning to for a while and am finally now getting around to properly hosting this wonderful tournament! I apologize for the delays, as I have brought it up before in the Pokémon topic, but I have been quite busy. The name of the game is Pokémon. Specifically, we will be playing Pokémon X and Y. First and foremost, you must sign up for this tournament. To sign up, visit this page and click "sign up." The service we will be using for bracket management is called Challonge. You will need to make an account on the site, so please try to use the same username as the one you use here. This is assuming you do not have one already; I did, and my name, for example, is "Ektris" there. If that is the case, just post here stating your username. After the tournament starts properly, you can find the full bracket here. Note that seeding at the moment is only temporary and is indeed based upon order of sign-up. Before it starts, it will be randomized for fairness. Use this bracket to keep track of standings and see your opponents so you know who to contact/expect contact from to arrange matches. Let us get to the rules and regulations then...
Rules are entirely subject to change and open to input up to the official start of the tournament, upon which they will be considered final. Please, do give feedback as I do not know everything people will object to. The tournament begins on Sunday, July 13. This will largely depend on user interest. That is, how quickly people sign up and it is determined we either have an acceptable number or no more are expected to join. The sign-up page has been available for some time but the number remains small. Hopefully the count will grow faster with better exposure via a dedicated topic. With that, let it begin! As I said before, ask any and all questions or bring up any concerns here. I do want us to all enjoy this and make it fair for everyone, so with your help that will be all the more easier.

All Mega Evolutions are allowed? Are you sure that's the wisest decision?

This sounds interesting, except I haven't played/trained my Pokemon in a while. Haha

I think that's the second or third time you've expressed interest, but you still haven't signed up...?
Ummmmmmm noooo... I'm all for banning Mega Blaziken and maybe Mega Kangaskhan (until I trained one myself I really did underestimate just how OP those two moves can be)... But then people (translation: Smogon) also think Mega Gengar should be banned and I'm entirely against that since I don't see the point. So I left all in waiting to see any specific objections from others instead of my personal opinion ruling it.

Adding it's breakneck speed of 130, it's astounding Sp.A of 170, only a handful of enemies can successfully defeat it without the random factor (And it's ability nets it a free kill since the opponent can't swap).
