UPDATE: Sign-ups are now CLOSED, though it’s possible we’ll open them for a short amount of time in the coming days. Thank you to everyone who has signed-up so far. We’ll be announcing the Official Rules soon. Confirmed competitors will also be announced shortly, as well as those on the waiting list.
***
As you hopefully all remember we announced last year that we would be holding a network-wide PokéJungle tournament. We opened sign-ups and had an amazing response. However, we didn’t quite feel we were ready to begin the tournament, there were things we hadn’t planned for and dozens of loopholes. Now, we’re ready to announce our tournament again, and open sign-ups right off the bat.
The PokéJungle Tournament 2014 will take place during a few weeks over summer this year, after which our first Champion will be announced. Due to the tournament running over several weeks we ask that you only sign up if you know for certain you’ll be available to take part in each round. At the time of writing we haven’t fully decided how many rounds there will be, but each round will run for a total of one week.
Using the Swiss format for battling trainers will gain points across each round, until all rounds are complete and the Champion decided. The Swiss format for battling allows us to match players of similar skills level in battles. Of course we’re open to suggestions if you don’t feel this format works best.
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. Sign-ups spots are limited. Once filled we will allow a further 10 people to sign-up and act as back-up competitors should another back out before the first round is completed Official tournament rules, requirements and information will be published soon. Rules can be expected to be a slight alteration of the Official VGC rules. Prizes and awards are yet to be decided.
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!

Hey pokemaster i still have that sableye if you want it.
The only rule that I’d suggest if the Sleep Clause. Other than that, standard rule are fine with me. ^_^
evasion and OHKO clauses are good too. (and moody clause)
Very rarely do I see OHKO moves tbh, but I’d be fine with evasion. I just don’t want this to turn into a Smogon format battle.
please Evasion clause. I hate double team!
Attempting my first soft reset for a shiny mewtwo! Wish me luck! (I’ll probably give up eventually, I’m too impatient for this!)
expect it to last a good two weeks min. 😛
Greeeaaat…haha
Haha. Same here. I’ve only been able to do 1 and thats a shiny Terrakion.
Nice 🙂
Ban the legendaries D:
I second this.
^^^
i dont think that will happen, specially i have seen people using legendaries competitive
Which? there are different types of legends.
Can I please withdraw from the tourney? I realised I can’t enter :/
I’ll tell moving to cross your name off.
Thank you

Anyone here to help me trade?
Ban ALL legendaries
Sleep and Evasion and Species Clause
YES 😀
All legendaries should be banned we think alike
NO D:
Guys, I made a promotional poster for the Tournament. Please refresh! 🙂
I disagree with the words in the poster,
I disagree with this comment under my poster.
I’ll beat Regi and TC both.
Prove me wrong then.
this tourney in a nutshell
Is that my Hippowdon?
Regi’s hippowdon.
When did he get a Hippowdon?
Doesn’t matter my Hippowdon has more guts
Many years ago when he got into defensive style of play
Hmmmmmmmmmm
I technically started competitive play during Black and White
But i didn’t know what i was doing until X and Y
regi’s been competitive since before Gen 4 xD
He may have years but I got Guts and Determination
Those count right?
Sure 😛 Good qualities to have in a trainer 🙂
Sadly, I don’t think the games register guts or willpower. Just a bunch of complicated equations and probabilities.
Boooooooooooo
That kinda stuff just sucks out “You can do it if you try harder” attitude and just boils it down to a boring “the calculations says it won’t work”
Well, considering many sites have damage calculators, yes it really is just an equation.
But where’s the Passion? The Intensity?
THE PRIMAL FEELING THAT IGNITES THE FIRE IN YOUR BODY!!!!!
Don’t get me wrong, all that’s good and makes it interesting. But don’t be sending out a Magikarp and hoping that it will unleash one of the most powerful splashes that will ultimately flood the world.
Life Orb Splash was banned you know
You just gotta berive
you forgot maple… tough as nails
OU as nails 😉
^ BS as nails
< Sexy AF. Wait, what?
#NoOriginality
#IAmAChangedPerson
#Maplesyrup
I get the feeling regi or TC will be the champion, but that’s my guess. So much truth in this poster, lol.
The truth has yet to be seen.
It was only my guess, but we’ll never know for sure until the time comes 🙂
LOL xD
While I’m nowhere near the best battlers here (as most of us know…), I’m still gonna give this a chance because why the hell not. Good luck to all my fellow contestants (and more importantly my PJ people). See you guys in the pit!
Wait, scratch that I won’t be able to participate :(. Im going to Israel for most of the summer and right when I get back I gotta do my collage and common apps. Really upset bout this but school is still my #1 priority. Good luck to the rest of you guys!
What is up my Jungleers
I didn’t even read one sentence and already signed up!
I might sound retarded but, how do you sign up? I refuse to read
Just click the Spoiler Tab
I just looked at the picture and got the gist of it
in the spoiler tab
thnx
^Why nothing here ever gets resolved.
I am ashamed 🙁
ugghhhh Email
Without Email Strong Bad would be nothing!
So uh. I still have internet. Tornado’s are coming down a few countys over, so Wats up? #TheGentlemanFTW #PJT2014
I’m going through my brother’s photoshops, and I’m very worried now.
{refresh}
I am stunned.
Well that’s burned into my brain….
I’m going to go rub sandpaper in my eyes…
Don’t just do corneas go, hardball and scrub those irises too, this image is gonna be in there for a while.
No….i’m scrub until I can’t see “that” anymore
Dat Kawaii Moon though.
Ummm….
Ayy, muy caliente.
Are you Chicorita XD?
Oh djja, how I miss you.
Anyone ever Mega Evolved a Sleeping Pokémon? It’s hilarious! XD
What happens?
You still get the Mega Evolution scene, but the Pokémon’s eyes are closed. You’d think that getting a burst of great power would wake them up. Nope!
Now I feel drowsy
Sleep comfortably.
I’ll sleep like a rock
This made me think of how prime ape would look if it was asleep and mega evolved XD
It punches the air after Mega Evolving. XD
and then it’s trainer punches prime ape
Yes!
Since Mega Evolution unleashes ultimate power hidden within a Pokémon, do you think that Mega Evolving should cure it from Sleep or Freeze?
Yeah… unless they changed their ability to Insomnia or Magma Armor that ain’t happening
If being at red health isn’t a requirement to Mega Evolve (which honestly, I was hoping for), then waking up or thawing out from great power should cause Mega Evolution.
Maybe I’m just thinking of too much Anime Transformations.
Who knows
There’s still so many secrets to Mega Evolution
But I still wished they made it only possible to mega evolve when both players had a Pokemon capable of Mega Evolving like they said during the Direct with the Mega Kanto
Yeah. That’s make things very fair. Who knows? Maybe Gen 6.5 or 7 will add this new rule.
We can only hope
so me and two friends are doing a nuzlock challenge where we all use the same game cartridge, but we play for 30 minutes each, then pass off the game at school. it’s my game so i got to choose the starter (chicorita >:))
Ok I’m starting pokemon glazed 😀
There’s 5 starters and I need help (I’m gonna narrow it down to three
Shinx Piplup or turtwig
The ground type
Aka turtwig
Should Mega Evolution work like in anime, and have Mega Stones behave like Focus Sashes and only cause Mega Evolution at 1 HP?
I kinda wish it would have been like that, and was caught by surprise when I found out that Mega Evolving could occur on the Pokémon’s 1st turn.
But in the mega special anime they mega evolve in the beginning too
I know. IDK. I just want to see someone in the anime Mega Evolve a Pokémon at the last minute when all seems lost, like with Red and his Charizard.
Yep
My name is red, my language is battle, I’m sorry if you get offend by the way I say hello
I said that?!?! I saw the sub, but I don’t remember that. Also, what’s a trainer’s Mega Stone called again? The one that synch’s with the Pokémon’s Mega Stone? I forgot.
I don’t think the Pokemon’s Health should be affect the Mega Evolution process
Demonstrated in the Anime The Keystone resonates the bond energy and links it with the Mega Stone activating the special power deep within the Pokemon causing them to change form a greater evolved form
Hello. That’s a really nice looking logo you got there.
Also, does anybody here have the Starf berry?
Starf I may have one let me check when I get home
😮 I hope you do. Thank you for your consideration!
no problem! I’m almost home so when I get my 3ds il post if I got one or not 🙂
If I do it’s all yours
That’s wonderful! Thank you so much.
I have some perfect Pokémon, you can choose one if you’d like.
XD Dont think its obtainable.
You can, if you win 200 consecutive battles in the Battle Maison.
Owwwww wow.
Aha, thank you 🙂
Before I put in my email, who are the staff members running the tournament? :3
Does something concern you?
I don’t want too many people to know my email 😛
Moving will be the only one to know your email.
That’s pretty scary, not gonna lie. (JK Skidds, completely safe. xD)
Uh hem, isnt that a lie then? The detective has beed busted.
*been
You could just make a temporary or secondary email.
That’s what I’m gonna do 😛
xD Yep. fakegmail @gmail. com or something like that.
There should be a website that allows you to design your own Mega Stone.
Just take some Dreamworld art and MSP it
Not sure if I should register or not. I would be quite busy when the time comes. I guess not, oh well.
