A few weeks back we revealed our plans to launch a network wide tournament, mainly taking place on PokéJungle.net. We asked our readers to complete a quick survey regarding competitive battling and their skills and opinions on how we should hold our tournament.
Today we are pleased to announce that the tournament will begin in the coming weeks once all preparations are complete. However, we can’t start a tournament without competitors! As such we’re proud to open sign-ups for our tournament. The sign-up period will last for approximately 72 hours, after which we will close the submission platform, sort entrees and contact any unsuccessful sign-ups. Official tournament rules will be released in the coming days alongside finalised battle formats and more, so please stay tuned!
It is important that if you wish to take part, you fill the form below with correct information. If we believe the information you have provided is incorrect we will sadly have to disqualify you from the tournament. If you wish to back out of the tournament after signing up we will provide a form later for you to fill out, it’s likely back outs will have to count as a forfeit. As always if you have and questions of queries please feel free to contact us or chat with us in the comments or site chat!
Keep a look out for a cool new site theme soon!
Sign-ups are now closed, look out for a new post soon!

Majora???? Super Smash Bros. :OOOOOOO
My body is ready!!!! This Saturday is gonna be EPIC!!!!
it is
Hey regi!
Hello! 😀
Yeah what is tomorrow? Is it a Nintendo direct?
VGX Awards. Reggies gonna reveal a new Wii U game tommorrow!
My body is ready!
regi*
That’s me….or are you refferring to him XD
Oops, meant to put Reggie xD But I’m used to putting regi, and confused you with him xD
Oh, got Growlithe 🙂 Later tonight when you’re back I’ll trade her back 😀 Thanks!
No Prob! 😀 I’ve also added a new member to my team xD
Bulba??
Nope sadly my luck is still bad 🙁
🙁
Then who
Well you guys already know, but I just trained him yesterday! Tentacruel!
:O
I haven’t tested him much, but I’m curious how he’ll blend in!
Toxic Spikes?
😉 Maybe…maybe not 😉
That would be so many hazards xD
I’m going with not…because i know the other 3 moves you were trying to breed onto it…and i think you would go for Scald over T Spikes as your final move
I’m not keeping all of the egg moves btw 😉
Ok, Well I guess T Spikes would help your stall strategy…
I bred for 3 egg moves, because I wanted to see which one was more useful! IF by chance I find one more useful than another, I wanted to have the option to not have to breed again, that was really my concern. But To be honest, I’m still kindy of iffy about the fact that Tentacruel has no recovery :
Liquid Oooooooooze.
I really don’t know what this does xD
Tip: Don’t use leech seed on tentacruel 😉
Just checked xD No Giga Drain, Drain Punch, Leech Seed, Parabolic Charge, etc 😀
A Conkeldur with like 10% HP used Drain Punch as I switched in my Tentacruel….Good bye Conkeldur
I love Liquid Ooooooze XD
I wish there was a poison type giga drain 🙁
Especially with Fairies existing :O
It makes so much sense also xD
I feel like I knew that bit haven’t really been on that much this past few days
Really that’s awesome! I hope it’s the new Zelda or a release date for ssb. Hopefully in March
My body is ready for anything! Super hyped….but must keep expectations low xD
Why low expectations. This could be great
I find that good things happen when I keep low expectations! xD. I’m hoping for the new zelda trailer, but also am hoping that the reveal trailers for more than one game!
Ok I understand. What if it’s something completely new
Even that is exciting! I know that Miyamoto is working on a brand new IP for Wii U before he retires. So I’m curious about that!
What’s ip? And miyamoto is retiring???????
Intellectual Property, basically a new franchise! Miyamoto hasn’t really said he’s retiring, but he’s making preparations.
Hope Shiggy goes out with a bang! Cant Wait! probably will be the only worthwhile thing on the VGAs
Anyone want to battle?
I want, let me get my 3ds
Sure
I’m online now
Rematch?
Yeah
Gotta train this new guy up before 8 PM lol
Hey timo! Like the avatar pic. Haven’t really been on that much
Haha, I give the credit to avatar lord Jordin 😛
Gg pokemaniacmy
GG
Alright who’s boarding the Hype Train for tomorrow!!!!
For what?
Tomorrows the VGX awards but more importantly their releasing info on a new Wii U game *Cough-Zelda*
:O New Zelda? What style? Top down? Cell shaded? Skyrim style?
If its as good as the teaser
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_fyOkrteqM
I’m ready to be blown off my seats tommorrow!!!! 😀
OMFG I NEED THIZ
Thats the water temple *O*
The bane of Zelda Players
I spent a month there in the 3d version lol
I beat it on the first day (of the Temple)
But only because i’ve played OoT 14 times
I played the 3d one and I absolutely loved it
Am I the only one who did not find the water temple that bad? The great bay though was an agonizing experience
Water Temple imo was not hard, but tedious. Great Bay Temple and Stone Tower Temple were HARD!
Gyorg made me nearly throw my Wii classic controller
God I was stuck in that temple for months, and Gyorg was a b****
Lets cross our fingers….
I’m on board!!! 😀
Did i miss anything?
CHU CHU SAYS THE TRAIN
Im in
GG Sceptile
Yeah gg, charizard y is a monster XD
Mega pinsir is very strong too
Thanks, but I expected venusaur to be the mega, because regular charizard had solar power. Nice strategy
I use solar power charizard and mega charizard at the same time, it’s a good way to trick your opponents
Sure tricked me XD
Hey guys a few days ago I posted a drawn pic of that male spritzee evo, so I have digitally drawn it and I was wondering what you think, and maybe I should do it digitally more often
Here was the old one
Looks a lot like my avatar…
It’s based of a plague doctor, while your avatar is a, a… I don’t know
A giant crow?
Album cover with a plage doctor thing staring at what looks like Jack skeleton and his lady friend
It looks nothing like a plague doctor to me since they were a person dressed in a cloak with a mask that resembled a birds face and it was used to block out the smell
Im pretty sure that its wearing a cloak…
Oh sorry, I couldn’t see it very well
yeah its a bit tough to make out. heres a better pic
http://www.amazon.com/Septembre-Et-Ses-Dernieres-Pensees/dp/B0038JY90C
It’s pimping
how does this idea sound?:
getting a sassy/quiet aegislash, EV train it in def and sp def and the last bit in hp, then let it learn sword dance to raise its attack stats.
does that sound like an ok set? or would its att stat alone not help ?
Give it defence and attack, mainly because most ground and dark attacks are physical apart from dark pulse, lands wrath, mud bomb, night daze
Oh and don’t forget aegislashes base stat in defence Form is 150 and special is 150
I agree with you there, defence in this case is more important HP
Needs more offense, because when it goes to swords stance, all of those defense EVs will be meaningless. You opponent will use Swords Dance/DDance on the King’s Shield and then you are in a bad position.
Sceptile, my new poke isnt ready yet 😛
Ok sure
What should I have 5 IVs in for an Aron? Do I need Sp. Attack?
Sp Attack on a Aron?
That badass muthaf*king beast don’t need Sp Attack
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pPX1bctnpms
Thanks!
didja watch the vid?
I did indeed. Very… Informative haha
No, don’t do SPA
Sweet. Thanks! That’s the one I wasn’t going to do, but I just wanted to make sure.
I come back after half an hour and no one has commented, really c’mon guys
Battle?
Maybe later, I’m waiting for something and I need to charge my ds
Okay
I’ll battle! Got some new pokes
On second thought, hold on I need a TM really quick
Ok
Lets Grumble Sceptile!
Crap I didn’t chose a 6th
Let’s start again
Apparently “Let’s Rumble” is copyrighted by Earthen right? XD
Yes…
Your damn right it is
What did I expect…
My Excadrill is bulky as XD
Reuiniclus is bluky too
I leik bulk
You have Bulk like Hulk
Gliscor’s down!
OMFG you’re the first to OHKO Gliscor
Felt so good XD
Choice Band?
Yep
Quite risky lol
But sometimes it just destroys teams
Blaziken vs the world…
Lol good game
Yup, got destroyed like always
No, you beat me like 3 times in a row like a week ago, with that damn gliscor XD
I’m trying to decide how to train my new Phanpy
Either all attack and Def
Or all attack and a mix def, sp def, and hp
Go max defences, you wont even have a chance to attack anyways
Nature and moveset?
Adamant
The moves are secret
Ice shard…
Yeah…
Okay. The nature says all anyways haha. I’m debating how you should do this. I suggest HP, ATK, and DEF. One of those, either ATK or DEF gets 252 EVs, and the other two split 126/130. I’m not sure which you prefer though
Eh Attack and Def
That always works too. Donphan has naturally high HP. With no EV investment and 31 IV, it’ll have 150 HP at level 50
WOW. Sand Stream Tyranitar with Air balloon and Sand rush Excadrill with a focus sash DESTROY in double battles together!
Get Assault vest on TTar unless youre running Mega
I might switch to hippowdon then
Yo Timo wanna have a battle?
Okay
What happened?
My Wi-fi is acting wonky
I could literally imagine you running focus sash on all of your pokes lol
that’s illegal
How?
In legitimate matches, there is item clause. Can’t have more than one of the same item
But on PSS Normal rules, its legal
That’s true as well, but Earthen probably just likes to play by those rules
Its more fair tbh
They apply at the Battle Maison. I gave Sitrus Berries to two of my guys just because, and I had to switch because it wouldn’t allow me
Yup
If i have to follow em so should others
Isn’t item duplicates not allowed?
Alright Lets Rumble!
Woah there
Earthen… this isnt going to happen…
Yeah but not I got a Poison heal Gliscor!
LOL
Invisible focus sash XD
Mamoswine’s life is on a thread
sooo close
Good Game And very good job Mamoswine
So close to finishing training a new Pokemon. Would anyone like to battle when I finish?
right here!
Awesome! 😀
After this im going to train my new adorably chubby Phanpy!
Donphan is so cool! Are you gonna teach it Ice Shard?
Already knows it!
Sweeeet!
But do you think Donphan can pull off a fear strategy, but’ll need Endeavor
Ohh Endeavor? Interesting, what other moves are you planning for it?
Well it has EQ, Ice Shard Thunder Fang and Play Nice!
Hmm, it could be unique if you pitted Donphan with Endeavor against something strong against it. Give it the Focus Sash, use Endeavor if they hopefully brought you down to low HP, and then use Ice Shard to finish them off.
Why give it a FS when it has Sturdy!
with his naturally low SP Def he’ll naturally be subjugated a special Grass or Water move
But the true is to get one with Endeavor
I forgot about Sturdy! xD
Never!
xD
Once my team is complete, we will have a battle royale! Only two more members left
Good luck 🙂 Can’t wait!
I do have a question for you, if you don’t mind.
My Sylveon is Calm nature with Max SPATK and SPDEF. Perfect IVs in all except Attack.
Which moveset do you like better?
Toxic, Protect, Shadow Ball, Moonblast
Toxic, Calm Mind, Shadow Ball, Draining Kiss
Oops. I meant Max EVs in SpAtk and SpDef
I like the first one better. Stall and strong attack. I’d like Draining Kiss more if it was a bit stronger…albeit you recover more HP, but still, Moonblast 🙂
Okie doke! Thanks for the input!
I wanna battle royale!
We can battle royale as well!
What I wanna do is make a ton of pokemon, (Cuz I’m doing youtube and want variety) so I can choose from a ton so its never boring!
Once you get the hang of IV breeding, it’ll be an impulse to always want to try new Pokemon and have a whole army
Anyone like to multi-battle?
Is 252 sp. def, 252 HP, and 4 def a good IV spread for nidoqueen?
—————————————————————————————–
What’s new? I haven’t been on most of the day. I had the most wintery day so far.
Seems good to me, especially if using as a wall.
Not much new here. Twinkles Toes (Sylveon) evolved and is now EV trained
After I finish breeding Chivo, I’ll breed Keytosucsess.
I’m guessing that’s a Klefki 😛
Yep.
Hmm never say a competitive Nidoqueen, What moves your teaching her?
Possibly Toxic, EQ, Poison Jab, and (I need ideas)
Is it a Sheer Force Nidoqueen?
Just looked over Nidoqueen’s moves. Give it Roar or Stone Edge
Poison Point, but perfect IVs except for sp.atk.
In that case. Roar, Stone Edge, or Power Up Punch
What about rock slide? Accuracy is key, right?
That’s a personal decision. I’m just thinking since there is no investment into Attack, that extra 25 base power may be key, but it’s up to you
Hmm, on a scale of I to 10 how helpful is roar? Or any other moves that could stall. Not poison jab, actually toxic spikes is better.
Roar is helpful if you get set up on. Example: Sylveon/Gardevoir using 2-3 Calm Minds can do devastating amounts of damage. Nidoqueen is your special tank. It’ll take a hit, use Roar, and no more set up threat. Other stalls could be Protect or Taunt
I’ve made a snowman, a gingerbread house, ate hot chocolate and sled a lot. Also froze. Oh, and fought vanilite.
TC you ready?
Almost, gotta train it 3 more levels so it learns the move I need 🙂
No problem BTW do u watch South Park
Nope =/
Ever seen game of thrones?
Nope xP
oh South Park did a three parter based on
PS4 vs Xbox one in a Game of Thrones Black Friday scenario
Really Funny
I’ll try looking for it on YouTube 😀
