    As is per our annual custom, the Badfic Contest has returned, brought to you by our friends at the Firefly Funhouse! The rules are the same as always, but for those who have yet to compete in this contest, I will explain the rules now. The objective is to write the first opening chapter of a...

    Open POKECHARMS BADFIC CONTEST 2019 - A SONG OF FAIL AND SHAME

    As is always annual custom for Pokecharms, the Badfic Contest returns for 2019, to celebrate the... "memorable" ending of hit TV series Game of Thrones not too long gone. Could you have done better yourself? Could you have written a better ending to Game of Thrones? You'll need to be able to...

    Sun/Moon Singles Singles Showdown 2018 - Matchup Thread

    Apologies for the delays, but I think I finally have a rig that works again - for now. Due to the low number of competitors we have this time around, we're going to be playing the game a little differently than usual. It'll be with a formula used in the Gen I tournament we held back in 2016...

    Open BAD RP CONTEST 2018!

    You bet jur-ASS-ic sucks today, for it is time for the long awaited, widely anticipated, deserves to be obliterated annual Bad RP/Fanfic contest once again. The aim of the game this year is character bios: your mission is to create the most repulsive, unlikeable, poorly-written RP character...

    Singles Showdown 2018 - Signups

    Time for the annual Singles Showdown; I imagine you all know the drill by now. Standard 6vs6 singles on Pokemon Showdown is the name of the game. The rules are almost identical to last year, the only changes being Blaziken being thrown into the Uber list and the Baton Pass clause being removed...

    Alola Islands Cup - Sign-ups

    Right, so this tournament is going to be very different to what you're all used to, and I credit the initial concept to @Brendan Savem which I have then spent some time working out a way to implement here. The tournament itself will be 6vs6 singles which you're all used to, on Pokemon Showdown...

    Monochromatic Doubles Tournament - Signups

    Due to being a relatively popular choice for our next tournament, we'll be doing a tournament with teams based not off of Pokemon type this time around, but by their colour. Every Pokemon in the 'Dex has a colour, which is usually fairly obvious. For example, Pikachu and Raichu both have a...

    Open Badfic/Bad RP Contest 2017!

    As always on this very day of the year, the badfic contest returns. Except this year, we'll be doing both fics and RPs here, because why not right? Here we celebrate the worst of the worst and see just how low you all can sink. ...and in some cases, how little you have to actually do to sink...

    Monotype Tournament 2017 - Signups

    I didn't realize it had been 3 years since the last time we did this. Just like the Singles Showdown, this tournament will take place on the battle simulator Pokemon Showdown, which can be found here: http://pokemonshowdown.com/ (Pokémon Showdown! battle simulator) The procedures will be as...

    2017 Singles Showdown - Matchup Thread

    Alright then ladies and gents, you already know the battle rules and hopefully you all have your teams ready. The rules for the tournament format itself will be simple: 1vs1, one-round knockouts on Pokemon Showdown until the final, which will be best 2 out of 3. With 17 participants, someone...

    Sun/Moon Singles 2017 Singles Showdown - Signups

    This will be our first tournament of 2017 (naturally) as well as the first Gen VII tournament, so I felt the best way to get started with all the new Pokemon, moves, items and abilities available is to keep it simple and familiar. Standard 6vs6 singles on Pokemon Showdown is the name of the...

    Your games of 2016: Good, OK, and bad

    Exactly what it says it is, except I actually played a lot of games this year so I'll just stick with one Pokemon game and one non-Pokemon game for each category. The Good: Honestly, this was the only game I've played that came out this year that I actually thought was very good, and I...

    Generation 1 Singles Showdown: Matchups

    This is the matchup thread for the Genwunner Singles Showdown, and for this we will be doing something a bit different. If anyone watched the UK Robot Wars this year, it'll look very familiar. Round 1 is straight 1vs1 knockouts. With seven players, one of you will get a bye into Round 2, which...

    Generation 1 Singles Showdown

    As this is the last tournament we'll be having before the release of Sun and Moon, I figured the best way to celebrate the future would be to go back to the past. For some players, the original 151 are the only ones that matter, and while those people are usually very wrong, for this tournament...

    I loved it... but I'd never play it again

    I'd like to think I'm not the only person who has done this, but there are some games that, for whatever reason, I've loved playing through but known full-well at the same time I would never play through again. I generally play through games I really like multiple times, so for a game to make me...

    Pokken Tournament Tournament 2016 - Battle Thread

    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...

    Pokken Tournament Tournament 2016

    (Y'know with the German name for this game that might have sounded a lot less silly, but what can you do?) As some of you may already know, this one has been in the works for some time now and was planned some time before the game was actually released. This tournament is a very simple one...
