If you'll be playing OU ledian and kadabra wont be able to keep up, mega alakazam can be pretty good.

Neat. I play sometimes too, mostly NU, PU, and doubles OU. Haven't played a lot since all the ladder scores reset though.

EDIT: Forgot my username. :p It's wellhaithar.

I don't really do doubles, not my cup of tea.

Testing out my Mega Beedrill team:
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/ou-195345601

Is there any Pokemon I should replace? Any tips on how to make my team better? There's still a lot of things that I don't know about Pokemon.

The stall wars holy shit lol. I'm not too keen on the competitive side of pokemon but why wasn't his Chansey a Blissey? Is it banned to Ubers or something?

Chansey tends to run Eviolite and make it bulkier than Blissey.

Caelo and I have been in cahoots.

How keen are you guys on the idea of an OU tournament between stickpage players? Don't worry, I don't intend to compete in this tournament. *because seriously*

I can give more details on how we should run it, if enough of you are interested.

Eh, I'd give it a shot if I have time. I mentioned before that I was in one, and it was pretty fun.

I finally have a semi-decent Umbreon counter, too.

Alright, since people seem into it. Let's do it.

How this will work:
1: Games will be best 2 out of 3 set, the finals will be a best 3 out of 5 set. OU tier.
2: One of the two players or both will post the replays of each game in the set. So that people can watch it and that we can confirm the results.
3: When you start a tournament match, type "stickpage" into chat. We'll be able to see that this means it's a stick page tournament match in the replays.

To sign up, just say you're in.

when we've got enough people to play.

I'm also considering additional rules.

such as:
You must private message someone with your tournament team, then you must enter every set starting with this team.
When you lose a game in a set you may switch teams.
