A little over two weeks ago we delivered the latest updates on the progression we’re making on the PokéJungle tournament, now it’s time for the next! A little later than we hoped to bring it to you due to some issues behind-the-scenes; better late than never though, right?
PJT ’14 Round Dates
As previously announced, our tournament will run on a Swiss, round-based format. Each play will accumulate point across 5 rounds, with no eliminations until after the fifth round is completed. After the fifth round points will be totalled and the 8 best players will proceed to three elimination rounds until a champion is found. Should there be a tie for places in the final 8 we will ask those with matching point scores to partake in a tie-breaker battle. Our first Champion will be named by the end of August.
Round 1 – July 18 — July 22
Round 2 – July 23 — July 27
Round 3 – July 28 — August 1
Round 4 – August 2 — August 6
Round 5 – August 7 — August 11
Final Elimination Rounds – August 13 onwards
As mentioned previously we have decided on these dates to provide the best timing for our readers and competitors over summer. Should you become unavailable during one of these rounds or unable to complete your battle in time, we will attempt to provide an extension for you to complete it; sadly we can’t shift the entire tournament for one individual, so it’s likely inability to battle will have to result in a forfeit!
Round 1 Match-Ups
In the first round of the tournament match-ups will be completely random, decided by a random name generator. After Round 1 players will be paired with others of a similar ‘skill’ (determined by the number of points you have accumulated). Below are the current match-ups for the first round of the tournament, these are subject to change should people back out.
The match-ups for Round 1 of the tournament can be found below, these are subject to change without notice in advance of the tournament starting; regardless of whether changes occur or not we will provide the match-ups again nearer the tournament starting.

Red text means this player is likely to back out.
[/spoiler]
Nearer to the tournament starting we’ll be asking all competitors to confirm they can take part across the 5 initial rounds, and calling in reserves to fill the slots of those who are unable to compete. Once the tournament commences articles will provided only for those taking part in battles to arrange battles and declare the results of each battle, we will detail these plans further once Round 1 commences.
As a final note we ask all of our readers to take this opportunity to ask us any question your have about the tournament, or anything related to it. Who knows, you might be able to squeeze some top-secret information out of us before we announce it proper!

*crys about not having a wii u*
buy it buy it buy it
I already made one this morin lol
I think i figured out my team
You should tell all of us right here.
No thanks
Or you could tell just me right here.
Why?
Ummmm no reason. Jk I wouldn’t tell anyone. And if you did even decide to tell me it wouldn’t be here.
Lol i won’t tell you
Yeah exactly lol
I onder why they chose 8 people to move on, wynaut 16?
Or 32
There are 50 people in the this round
Shoulda chose 32
It’s currently 8 because we don’t want to run for too long, and have people start going back to school/college etc. That said, we MAY change the amount of people who go through into eliminations. We’ve deliberately not set final dates for that yet 😉
:OOOO My comment is the best! This has never happend before!!!! 😀
Guys! My little sister dropped my DS with Pokemon Platinum in it and now the cart has a little opening in it! *Breathing Intensifies*
Tape!
so far it’s working. but for how long?
Throw it at the floor and find out.
:I
YOU MONSTER!!!
XD I wasn’t saying it was cause I hate it (don’t), but because he was curious.
oh!! ok then we good :3
NO NO NO NOT PLATIUM!!! ANYTHING BUT!!!!
not sure if sarcasm or actual literal fear.
PURE REAL FEAR MAN!!!!
AND MEAN REAL FEAR! ANYONE WHO KNOWS ME KNOWS I TAKE SINNOH VERY SIRCERSLY!oh opps forgot i had caps lock on. 😛
As long as it wasn’t hoenn 😀
:II
Literal. Distortion World was amazing omg.
Yes.
Thank you.
Just keep calm and….
NO IT’S PLATINUM, STAY IN CONSTANT FEAR YOU COULD LOSE PLATINUM!
(actual fear for you)
yay! still working! Hail Arceus and Rayquaza for it is a good day!
This totally reminded me of my Blue Rescue Team…except it was in a washing machine.
And survived.
Not the sticker, though, but the game beyond worked.
just like my pokewalker.
I was panicking, and I was like ‘Please work, please work.’
My little child heart exploded when I found it it was still working 😀
Well, some people got screwed in this “random” matchup list…
Dicie…
Gangplank…
me- oh wait.
I’m pretty sure I’m going to lose before it starts so…
Well, I’m on Team Ethan soooo yay!
Baha. After the first round it gets a little more ‘fair’. You’re matched up with people who do similarly well. Don’t be so down 😉
Best of luck to you battlers! just remember, even if you win, somewhere out there someone is better than you! <3
So supportive :3
I’m a very supportive person! Like this one time I encouraged my friends to finish our project whike I was slacking off. :3
Nice xD
XD I have much respect for you now!
Troooo
I cant wait to battle spentznaz! it will be the battle of the Spencer’s!
Anyways i’m gonna go play some MK8 and go to bed, night y’all!

4478-2913-5664 enter in the tournament

Well arnt you a little show off. jk but i unlocked all charaters and 3 stars all cups on 50cc doing 100cc tomarrow.

Oh my gosh people got 14 characters and 3 starred like 8 cups in one day lol.
I have nothing :/
Nothing to lose.
Everything to gain.
Play for me! And night! 😀
join the community
can you tell me bout it tomarrow plz i g2g
As much as i love Mario Kart i need rest
My Eyeballs are hurting
Let your eyeballs rest…on a sundae!
actually that would feel nice
Stickin’ ice cubes in my eyes
So were there any MK8 characters we didn’t know about?
Not yet. There’d only be DLC.
oh dang it.
Hopefully they slip people in w/ Mercades.
The Mercades looks so out of place lmfao
I know but es so chic! And omg than ks for talking about Bramblestar’s Storm yesterday. Looks great.
I’m scared to see what happens to them >.< You'd think after everything that has happened, they'd be more trusting of each other. 😛
Guys lol I remember sitting in my basement playing Platinum. I was Iin the Distortion World and was going sideways the waterfall. Omg anf then Giratina’s shadow! And the music! Can’t wait for 5 years honestly.
I 3-starred the 50CC Mushroom and Shell cups just now in my trial run, and the game runs smooth like butter. Also, I see a lot of you guys are rushing through and trying to complete everything. Take your time! Enjoy yourselves and don’t worry about being the very best, like no one ever was. You waited a long time for this experience. 🙂
I know, I usually take a lot longer on pkmn then my friends for this reason.
You can’t expect hard core gamers to just take it slow, especially with a Game like Mario Kart
The Online ranking just makes you want to beat everyone who’s not American
I personally don’t have that super-competitive edge, but I see where you’re coming from. If that’s hardcore to you, then so be it!
My competitive edge cuts deep
Such competitive blood.
I personally don’t like racing games in general.
Get out…
My Blood’s hotter then the magma in the Earth’s Core when it comes to racing (Or anything remotely competitive)
Mario Kart 64 was my very first game of my existence
with so many body parts to unlock i think i will finish this game after a month
OOOOOOH MYYYY
Well here’s the thing…
I am rushing because I want to race online 🙂
I need a lot of parts variety in case I need to change something up.
Granted, I need to learn the courses well first.
Well, what if they are unintentionally rushing? Like I was with Kirby Triple Deluxe. Sometimes you are so excited to play, you never notice how fast you’re going, and finish quickly. Although, I just got here, and haven’t bothered to read the past comments, so I could be completely wrong. Anyways, I’m getting MK8 tomorrow, either digitally or in hand 😀
I got way too close to injuring someone today. Luckily my brain was in ‘don’t think first’ mode at the time.
I have the exact same fear
I’m a really strong guy and can do more then easily hurt somebody
My Father always taught me “The only worse thing you can do is ruin someone else’s day”
I swear, every bit of anger and hatred could have been thrown is this guys poor, poor face.
And boy oh boy it would hurt like hell.
Cause I have a lot of anger and hatred in my body.
Same here
Ever try to live with a ever constant cluster migraine in a high School full of idiots and very few close friends that have the same interests
Also the only one i ever loved got held back a grade and we drifted apart…
At least you have good friends 😛
My ‘friends’ ignore me most of the time.
Which just adds to the hatred.
Guy, guys, calm down. I understand your feelings. But you also have to think about the good things in life. And the knowledge that you’ll find better people eventually.
I try. I really do try with every ounce of my power, but most of the time it just doesn’t work…
Most. 🙂 Keep working on it. When something ticks you off walk away and focus on us. Pokemon. Family. Food. Anything you love. It takes patience.
Same here.
Plus I’m afraid to get drunk because I’ll probably lose control of myself.
I already have little “remorse” when I’m sober…
are you online right now?
If you are talking about MK8 then I can be 🙂
yes:3 let me finish 2 courses and i can get online
your NN username?
Monkey-Olaf
i send you the request:3
Done, thanks 🙂
I wonder what kind of Drunk i am
Either i’m some kind of super charismatic stallion
or even more violent and depressed with a severely short fuse
Haha, in my case, I don’t want to find out 🙂
Cause i’m a freaking Bear man and more then capable of severely hurting somebody or even kill somebody
Why not both? 😀
whoa. what exactly caused you to get so angry, if you don’t mnd talking about it.
-_- I’d rather not, honestly…
Just, everything, really.
I understand completely. I’ve had the exact same feelings as you before. Then I learned to ignore A*******.
You can make me angry by making fun of me, even if you are being sarcastic.
The internet is different, of course. As I can look at what I type before entering.
yeah that’s me, too. I just put on a fake smile. It’s not healthy i tell you what.
The brain is a powerful thing.
And the sun. The sun is nice. Makes me feel better.
The sun is especially nice when it’s a rock/psychic type.
Why isn’t Solrock fire?
I always used rock moves but it wouldn’t work.
Mega Solrock could fix that. It’d be an improvement.
Fire Psychic doesn’t sound like bad typing. Neither does Rock/Fire, but that would be a bad move against Water or ground types.
Like Whiscash…
I completely forgot about Whiscash until you just mentioned him XD
He’s one of those forgotten pokes in my book.
Along with Rhyperior EARTHEN PLEASE DON’T KILL ME.
I’d more say Rhyhorn as the forgettable of that line. Although, that’s just me.
Rhyhorn is the most forgettable. yes, but I just wanted to piss Earthen off.
Now that’s a bit harsh, don’t ya think? Even he can respect opinions..
Good point.
I apologize Mr. Earthen.
I hope things get better :3
Not anytime soon.
what grade are you in, exactly?
Hmm….?
I shouldn’t answer that question. It doesn’t make me feel safe.
I didn’t mean it to be weird. I guess this is what happens when an anti-social person like me tries to be social. once again sorry if you felt creeped out.
I didn’t feel creeped out 😛
ok good. I’m just really out there sometimes. :3
That happens to everyone. He just doesn’t know you well enough. Almost none of us know each other irl.
we should change that! Junglecon 2014!
😀 yay!
I probably wouldn’t go though. I’m like really awkward in face to face conversation.
I wouldn’t know what to say 😛
I might slap you and walk away or something like that.
Yes! But I am also socially awkward xD I would say something, then just stand there, unable to actually participate in the convo happening xD
Yeah that’s basically me. XD
LA Kings.
AVENGE MONTREEEEEAAAAAL!
A lot of people in my school think way too high of themselves.
Story of my life.
Earthen, wanna register me on Wii U friends list? I’m TCMets17.
And also, glad to see a set time period and who I’m up against! 😀 This tourney will be fun xD
Dude, can I add you too? I’ll be Monkey-Olaf.
Of course 🙂
Use Pink Gold Peach. Only her.
I know you always wanted to secretly use her. Why else would she be the first character you unlocked? >:3
Uh… it’s random. 🙂
I got her 8th.
I got Ludwig third, and besides Rosie, who’s not unlocked yet, he’s my ideal online troll clown thing.
I know it’s random. We’re I the one who told you about that on Mt. Moon? I was just making fun of TC’s bad luck x3
Oh. 🙂
Heh heh heh.
Well the metallic characters are in a special (if heavy) weight class of their own, giving them a niche…
Yeah, medium sized kart, making them harder to hit than normal Heavy characters, right? That’s what makes them okay in my book LOL
Hahah yeah. And I saw the post. 🙂
WAIT YOU NEED TO ADD ME
Add me 🙂
I think I’m Archeops127. No idea how this works tbh
i added you:3
is like facebook a friend request going to appear and you have to accept it
Added you too.
How to find & add:
Get on Miiverse -> User Page -> User Menu -> Search Users -> Click Profile -> Add as Friend
How to accept:
Notifications -> Friend Requests -> Click -> Accept
Got you guys 😀
Guys, idc if you’re socially awkward, you’re all great and would fare fine. Plus, we all know each other and our interests, so it would be easier.
I’d just get into a discussion with you and Espeon LOL
About how I don’t think they’ll kill off Sandstorm in Bramblestar’s Storm and he and Squirrelflight witll get back together? Anyways, I gtg bai!
She, Dustpelt, and Graystripe will retire silly goose. And BramblexSquirrel was confirmed to be back together 😀
Exactly.
But, Sand needs to join her love in StarClan D:
But yes. Bramble and Squirrel is on for good 😀
Sandstorm has Graystripe to comfort her at least, for now. I think she’ll probably die of greencough tbh
Yeah 😀
And then we can fuss over DovexBumble, cause seriously, I love them. To the death.
My only problem with most of the shippings in Warriors now is that everyone is related in ThunderClan .-.
True D: That’s kinda why I was with DovexTiger for awhile for a change. And forbiddenness 😀 And I also shipped LeafxCrow. Even though they totally fell apart D: If only.
And CinderxLion. 😀 Forgot that one sorry xD
Eh, I’m tired of forbidden love. It feels so common. I’d just prefer ones that are more like FirexSand. That worked well for me xD
xD I thought I would be too. But it was more on the fact that they are so cute. Both of them really xD
But yeah, I like more stable pairings that have little trouble and stick together 😀
I guess so. but still, I get clammy around people in my own family.
True 😀
Nice to see the match-ups list posted. Me vs. a fellow “Metal”. And I laughed @ TC vs. Dicie. OMG XD
I died when I saw that. I DIED
I would’ve died laughing if they had put Earthen up against MightyWyvern XD
I’m beginning to think these weren’t randomized… HMM
Tbh I don’t think they were lol. Definitely hand selected. I mean… what are the odds of HeavyMetalFairy going up against AbsoluteMetalHead LOL
They were actually completely random! I even did them twice to be doubly sure.
There are some excellent coincidental match-ups going on there though 😉
With all these MK8 talks, I really wish I had a Wii U 🙁 I need to get a job for all these upcoming games XD
I need a nickname for a Pikachu.
Ideas?
Pwease?
Uhcakip
Wha?
Pikado the math
Pikachu BACKWARDS?
Volt
Sparky or Aden 😉
Full blown serious.
Or Name him after a god. Like Thor. or Raiden.
Raiden is the name of someone in my class 😛
Do they cause thunderstorms? xD
Tomorrow Mario Kart 8
We’ll get everyone’s friend codes and we’ll bring the thunder!!!
Register me please D: TCMets17
Later watching Netflix
This is my Name ketchellbrothers
