op adapted from -Tsunami-'s RU tour
As we creep closer towards the end of generation 6, I felt its time for a look back on how NU has evolved. In this tournament we're taking a look through the history of the NU tier and some noteworthy teams that have been placed in the RMT archive over the past 3+ years. The main premise of this tournament is simple: teams are often put in the archive after the metagames they functioned in are no longer playable, so why not make a tournament where trainers can battle one another with some of these broken teams? For this tournament, I have chosen all of the XY / ORAS NU teams in the archive, and also selected some of the BW NU teams in the archive as well that have enough powerful threats to function in this tournament.
Each player will be randomly assigned 3 teams at the start of the round. They are to play their opponent in a best of three. Each player may only use each team one time in the bo3. You will be able to see what teams your opponent has been assigned, so part of the tournament will be predicting which team they will use in which game. The best part about this tournament is that you don't have to ask for / build teams because they're provided for you. So no point johning or anything, just play your games please. Also, one of the teams has a Gothorita, so please challenge in ORAS Ubers where Shadow Tag is allowed.
