PokeOcalypse - {GAME COMPLETE}

[DeathNote]

Well.. At least I am good at tie breakers.

[Xalxe]

Haha, I love that xalxe got 15th place and still got his first pick

My strategy for this game is to not hurt myself by thinking too much.

[Yiley]

Well let's see how your fire starter matches up against cx and his water starter. Jim?
Yes Steve I'm here at Pokemon showdown arena waiting for this elimination battle to begin. On the left side is cxinlee, and his Pokemon are mudkip bidoof and surskit. On the right side is tiershift, his Pokemon are charmander, mankey and hopip. This is gonna be a great battle Steve.
( I got the mons right, right?)

[orcinus_theoriginal]

ok. im going to run a game within a game. this is very simple: betting on elim challenges!

each player starts with 100 points. you can bid any amount of points on either of the battlers. when the battler you bet on wins, you split all the money in the pot with the other winners. losers get nothing.

anybody can play. to start, just PM me with your bet. even eliminated contestants and the people who are battling!

PM bets to me. winner gets the internet!!!

SIGN UP NOW EVERYBODY

[Lord Mhork]

Wait hang on. There are no odds? Why not just bet 1 every time then?

[orcinus_theoriginal]

whoops i fucked up a word

winners split winnings proportionally

so like if the pot is 50 and you bet 1 and the other winner bet 4 you get 10.

i dont want to do odds because theres nothing to create odds off of. this way, you guys decide odds!

i'm subscribing to this, haha

Spoiler: cutie

[BlackPawn14]

I bombed it... but actually got a Pokemon I wanted
also, making an underground betting group over animals fighting each other... you guys are inhumane...
I'm in.

[BlackPawn14]

Also @orci: I think you can make odds depending on how people bets for each player... but I think it might only work for massive groups. That way I think it's good, but you should probably publish how much was bet on each player, just for fun.
brb, bettin' all my pokemonies on

[REDACTED]

[Candillan]

9th place is Candillan, who receives his 3rd choice, a Caterpie.

Yessssssssssssssss

Azurill, Pichu, and Caterpie have also evolved.

MY CATERPIE, WHERE HAVE YOU GONE ;-;


Also, did everyone just put the same amount for every round, or was it just me/the top three/PrivateI?

[TierShift]

Me too :/

[TierShift]

Just so I get this right:
510 EV's, custom IV's, all items and hidden abilities are all fair game?
All moves that a poke can learn except for level-up moves after level 8 are allowed?
We abide by all the PS! clauses? (Eg only one poke asleep in a team)

[CuddlyCaucasian]

Yep yep yep!

[TierShift]

so moody is banned on bidoof yesss

[Yiley]

So I can't use level up moves learned after whatever level we unless they are tm or egg move learnable?

[Yiley]

No moody is hidden ability and those are allowed

[animorpherv1]

So I can't use level up moves learned after whatever level we unless they are tm or egg move learnable?

Every level up move you can get as an "egg move"...

[Yiley]

O rly? I don't do stuff like breeding. I catch wild pokes and somehow get someone too trade something semi ok and then lose battles. or I would if I had x/y. So why the level limit thing?

[animorpherv1]

So people actually use pre-volutions...

[Axxle]

Moody isn't allowed since it can increase evasion.

[Candillan]

Simple is just as fun, though!

[CuddlyCaucasian]

So I can't use level up moves learned after whatever level we unless they are tm or egg move learnable?

Every level up move you can get as an "egg move"...

While this is true, I'm only counting moves listed as egg moves on serebii as legal, in case there was any confusion.

[Axxle]

Are you guys going to stream your match?

[Yiley]

I meant the level up move limit not the poke level limit

[KingdomAces]

No, moody is banned under it's own clause, not under evasion clause. The evasion raise is one of the reasons why it was banned, but not the only one. I remember reading about this a while ago for some reason, even though I think it was already banned by the time I started battling.

But yeah, it's banned either way.

Spoiler: List of clauses

Sleep Clause Mod: Limit one foe put to sleep
Species Clause: Limit one of each Pokemon
OHKO Clause: OHKO moves are banned
Moody Clause: Moody is banned
Evasion Moves Clause: Evasion moves are banned
Endless Battle Clause: Forcing endless battles is banned. (Leppa Berry + Recycle and Leppa Berry + Harvest See this battle for an example of why this was initiated.)

Aside from them and the banned Pokemon (which I assume CC just won't give us access to), the only bans are Gengarite and Kangaskhanite. For now everything else is allowed.

And the battle is not open for public viewing unless the winner wants it to be. Because of this, you are only allowed to watch the battle live if both of them agree on it.
