A new thread would probably draw more attention, and could be used for sign ups, etc. I'd think it would almost be required for good structure.

I would love to run the tournament but it has to done on a weekend and has to be over by sunday evening WHY? you ask because my mom wont let me play video games during the week.

If possible, I would prefer a slower tournament with something like one round a week. Some people (like myself) have busy schedules and it might take a few days just to find the right time to meet with an opponent, especially since this is an international forum where differing time zones also play a part. A fast tourney over one weekend would have far less people who could fully participate in it.

Then we need to set what kind of tournament a knock out or round robin i dont care and the rules would be like
1) Limit on number of pokemon and we will have to corrdinate this one the chat place its a lot easier to do it this way.
2) No ubers which are lengendarys you can have the lesser rare one in the game which includes Latias, Latios, the regis not regigigas,and lots of others
3) No glicthed pokemon at all will be disquified if it happens
We will need people to post there fc.

I personally think round robin works better, especially for smaller tourneys (16 people or less). I don't mind either way, and if others disagree I'm okay with any alternative. Whatever works.
I'm just looking forward to the chance of any tournament at all.

As I understand it, the following Pokemon are commonly considered ubers and are usually banned:
Mewtwo
Mew
Lugia
Ho-oh
Latios/Latias (when holding Soul Dew)
Groudon
Kyogre
Rayquaza
Deoxys
Dialga
Palkia
Giratina
Manaphy
Darkrai
Arceus
Wobbuffet
I think that's all, but I might be forgetting some.

Ideally, whichever ones you like best.
But if you're only interested in power, the sheer stat totals of Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Metagross, Garchomp, and Slaking are all comparable to the average legendary, despite not being legendary themselves. Then there's Starmie, Gyarados, Blissey, Rhyperior, Electivire, certain starters...the list of stupidly powerful regular Pokemon is surprisingly large. (I use Slaking and can personally testify that it's a total beast.)
