I've never been on the competitive scene, so I'm curious about rule #2. Is there something horribly broken about the Evasion stat that merits attacks that buff it being excluded? :o
Again, just asking out of curiosity.
it's largely to remove as much luck from competitive scene as possible without hacking the game itself to change the mechanics
also, it ruins the point of 100% accuracy moves like earthquake, flamethrower, surf etc.
which are all core.

Evasion is such a terrible competitive stat >.< Brightpowder and Lax Incense are also banned under the Evasion clause, by the way.
Has Smogon already decided on what the new sleep clause should be? They suddenly decided how sleep mechanics would work in BW/2, so I think you can sleep multiple things (whereas before it was impossible to do so). Last I checked, they didn't know if you should be prevented from sleeping anything, or if you should be given a loss if you manage to sleep multiple things (e.g., using Spore on what might be a Natural Cure Blissey or using Spore on a Pokemon that might wake up as opposed to not being able to use Spore at all)

EDIT: Sign me up. The tournament is tomorrow, right?

I forgot you were joining. Cat needs to update first post with who is doing this.
Also, I find it really funny when people rage quit because they are starting to lose. They just give up without even trying. Who knows, they may have been able to turn it around? Silly rage quitters.

Just sweep him with Alakazam. He can't deal with it.

I think I could manage to take down Arsik. Dunno about Cat, have beaten him/her before. Cucu is a huge threat, though.

Trying out my team. I hate when people rage quit when they start to lose. I can't help it I'm so pro.

I would join, if I wasn't so lazy to make a team.
I might make a team, but I don't want to commit to anything. Is it okay if my entry is tentative?
If so, I'd like to join tentatively.

Oh yes.
I would only solidify my entry after I set up my team.
