Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.
Let the games begin.
Before we start though, I will lay out the general rules first:
- The tournament rounds will be decided in best 2-out-of-3 matches. The player who beats their opponent in two full matches will move onto the next round.
- The losing players will enter a Loser's Bracket. Win...
No, it'll be at the beginning of the next fiscal year.
The signups end at midnight tonight. The brackets will go live around 14th-15th.
Patience is a virtue.
Talonflame is passable at using Defog since it gets Gale Wings priority on it but it'll definitely be eating a ton of Stealth Rock damage in the process of removing it, so I'd stick with what you have. Leftovers on Talonflame can cushion the damage a little bit, otherwise Florges's Wish passing...
There's a few things you could change:
- Garchomp may be running a more team supporting/defensive style here but that doesn't mean he has to completely dedicate to it. Toxic is a bit wasted on him since his 130 Base Attack would do more damage to almost everything anyway. The only thing you're...
The sets would be fine if they weren't all on the same team. You don't need five Pokemon with setup moves on one team, two will do. Let the others focus on helping those two Pokemon with the setups steamroll through everything else.
Consider a mixed attacker as well. You currently have five...
...and with all of this, the Bad PRP Contest is over, and judging shall now begin.
Due to the sheer number of competitors who competed this year, only the most noteworthy in their epic fail shall be addressed. I can't help but wonder how much some of you really had to lower your standards for...
You don't need reasons why a Gen IV remake is plausible. The key question for Game Freak and Nintendo is "would a Gen IV remake sell?" The obvious answer is yes, as despite Gen IV being a pile of ass it was still very popular, and since it's likely we'll eventually see remakes of every...

Once the deadline for signups is hit the first round will go live within 24 hours.
So currently it's set for July 13th, although depending on how many entrants we get that date may be subject to change.
I'd say HP/Sp.A is best, purely on the grounds that Assault Vest works best on more offense-oriented Pokemon who happen to have decent Sp.Def already, and Beheeyem needs HP training for bulkier sets anyway since its base HP is quite low.
Well this is an absolute disgrace.
However, I must thank you all for your attendance in our grand celebration of everything wrong with the state of RP in 2016.
Judging will come Soon(TM,) so if you still have more fail to bring, now is the time. There isn't long left.
I'm hoping Solgaleo will amount to more than just a lion-shaped Metagross. I love how he looks, but Psychic/Steel + Full Metal Body is just a Metagross clone except with stats similar to Mega Metagross I'd imagine. Also the fact that despite his Sun theme, he's not only not a Fire-type but is...
There are deadlines for each round, but other than that you just talk with your opponent to decide when would be the best time for the both of you to do your matches. There's no specific time/day for each round.
I'll add your signup to the board anyway Brendan just so that it's there if you do get the game. Just let me know closer to the deadline if it looks like you won't be able to make it.
