3rd Round
4th Round
This tournament is an experiment and an investigation into the effect an "obvious" Uber pokemon will have on the current OU metagame. This is particularly interesting as most of the "obvious" Ubers such as Mewtwo, Kyogre and Darkrai are only countered by Pokemon in OU and the tiers below it. This tournament tests your knowledge and team building - how to abuse the Uber but also how to counter them with your team.
Each round iKitsune will select an "obvious" Uber pokemon to be included. You do not need to use that pokemon in your team but I assume most of you will. In the subsequent rounds iKitsune will pick a different uber pokemon but only one Uber will be allowed each round.
This is a Single Elimination Tournament.
Logs are not required to confirm your victory, but would be nice.
