Other Metagames Teambuilding Competition
Welcome to the Other Metagames teambuilding competition. Every week I will post a Pokemon or core of Pokemon, along with a metagame. It is your job to build a successful team around these Pokemon. Once you have done so, PM your team to me with the format shown below. You have five days to do so. Once these five days are up, submissions will be closed and I will start the voting period. The voting period, which will last for two days, will be when everyone casts one vote for their favorite team. At the end of this period, the winner will be announced and the process will repeat itself. Below are the rules, and everything else you may need to know.
Rules
Below is an example of the format you will be PMing to me. Remember to follow this format exactly. Failure to do so may result in me rejecting your team. If you can't spend five minutes formatting your team, I won't spend five minutes posting your team when voting time comes. Remember, do not post your team in the thread. PM it to me.

Other Metagames Teambuilding Competition
Welcome to the Other Metagames teambuilding competition. Every week I will post a Pokemon or core of Pokemon, along with a metagame. It is your job to build a successful team around these Pokemon. Once you have done so, PM your team to me with the format shown below. You have five days to do so. Once these five days are up, submissions will be closed and I will start the voting period. The voting period, which will last for two days, will be when everyone casts one vote for their favorite team. At the end of this period, the winner will be announced and the process will repeat itself. Below are the rules, and everything else you may need to know.
Rules
- To submit a team, it must be PMed to me, and it must follow the format shown below. You may make changes to it as much as you like, but once the deadline hits everything will be locked in and I will post what I see at that moment.
- Disputes / Copying: Obviously, there is potential for disputes over copying or people making similar entries. In general, if your team entry has the same Pokémon and similar move sets to an earlier entry, it will be disqualified. If anyone tries to abuse this by reserving an early post in the thread for their entry, please bring it to my attention and they'll be disqualified.
- Discussion and Team Changes: One part of the process is to have discussion about the teams and the core. While I'd like to keep this from being a speedy RMT thread, suggestions of improvements to entered teams are allowed. In the interests of fairness though, I'd ask that any suggestions don't involve anything more major than move set changes, and that if you've already submitted a team you won't change the Pokémon in it. Basically, just be sure that you're happy with the team before you send it in.
- Replays may be attached to show your team in action, but try to maintain your anonymity. This prevents bandwagoning of any sort.
- No Bandwagonning : Simple rule: try to not support someone simply because you recognized his nick or because he/she has a shiny trophy. Vote for who you want to win, not who your friend wants you to vote for. Obviously it'll be hard to enforce this, but please use some common sense.
- Suggestions are welcome and encouraged, but please do not get offended by any means if I don't use your core. Spanning multiple metagames and whatnot it may be difficult to keep up with the requests for pokemon/cores. If you do make a suggestion, please make it viable as to not waste my time.
Below is an example of the format you will be PMing to me. Remember to follow this format exactly. Failure to do so may result in me rejecting your team. If you can't spend five minutes formatting your team, I won't spend five minutes posting your team when voting time comes. Remember, do not post your team in the thread. PM it to me.

This team was built around the Protean Mega Mewtwo X; Electric / Ground coverage hits most of the prominent threats in BH for solid damage, and with my spare moveslot I chose Extreme Speed to net surprise KOs on previously damaged -ate users. This set, of course, is totally walled by Giratina, so I added a Fur Coat one to my team to wall Imposters and kill Shedinja. Opposing Giratinas would be a huge problem, unfortunately, so I selected Pixilate Mega Diancie, which can OHKO them with Boomburst, as a second attacker. Of course that, too, needed a wall of its own, and I selected Assault Vest Regenerator Mega Steelix, a recent test subject of mine and excellent -ate check, for the role in question. The last two teamslots went to an obligatory Magic Bouncer (Mega Audino) and setup check (Prankster Aegislash)
