Don’t forget to check out our Corocoro updates here and here!
Much, much later than we wished to, we’re bringing our readers the penultimate update on the 2014 PokéJungle Tournament before the first battles commence. We’ve decided to make some changes to the format of the tournament to help with how it’ll run when we begin later this month.
PJT ’14 Format Changes
At the end of May we announced that our tournament would run over five rounds, with players earning points in each round and the top 8 players after all rounds proceeding to three elimination rounds, this has now changed.
The changes we’ve made have been done so to remove the pressure of having to be available for the entire period of the tournament. Players will now be placed into groups, in these groups every player will battle one another once. When all battles have been completed (and tie-breakers completed if necessary) the top player from each group will move forward into the elimination rounds.
Players will need to confirm participation below so we can finalise groups and group balancing before the start date of the tournament. Group stage battles will take place over the same dates as the Rounds were previously planned to take place, with a maximum of three groups battling at any time. All match-ups posted before now are to be ignored.
As it stands any drop outs will no longer be filled by stand-ins, until we announce otherwise.
We have also decided to push the tournament start date back. This is to allow participants time to confirm their entry (see below) and for us to finalise players in each group.
Lavender, Camphrier & Driftveil Group Battles – July 23 — July 27
Canalave, Sunyshore & Cinnabar Group Battles – July 28 — August 1
Ecruteak, Fallarbor & Lumiose Group Battles – August 2 — August 6
Goldenrod, Undella. & Rustboro Group Battles – August 7 — August 11
Final Elimination Rounds – August 13 onwards.
Participant Entry Confirmation
It has been a while since we first opened sign-ups to the tournament, and it’s likely some of those who signed-up are now unable to take part, or simply do not wish to. As such we’ve decided that participants must now confirm their entry using the form below by July 17. Those who do not do so will be removed from the tournament and unable to participate. If you have changed your username since this list was created please inform us and we will change it accordingly.
The following participants are required to fill out the form:

Dijja how come your brother doesn’t come here anymore D:
Can’t wait for next month’s Corocoro’s Mega Pokemon Scoop.
Me too! And I want to see Mega Metagross Artwork Concept already and more info on him
Me and my favortie pokemon from each region!!!
Hawlucha good choice!
And what’s happening in that pants?
Nothing…
HOLY MAGIKRAP THAT IS AMAZING <333 You have a great talent! 😀
Thanks Jordinite, haven’t spoke to you in a while! XD
No problem 😀
welcome back
Nice to be back! 🙂
THIS.IS.AWESOME!
Thanks, Celestial
I’ll join in PJT’15 🙁
Me too.
You dont have X or Y too?
I have X or Y.
I learned the meaning of SR’ing(soft resetting) and now once i get X i will try for a shiny starter!
Aren’t you getting it in 4 days?
Guys, Serebii has new corocoro scans, Mega Diancie will have magic bounce,
And according to the scans the next corocoro in august will feature a big mega evolution scoop!
OMG JUST SAW IT AND I CAN’T WAIT FOR NEXT MONTH SCAN!!! JUST TOO HYPE O SLEEP!
Mega Milotic Please!!!
I think I noticed a screenshot of contests, If you look at the part showing Doctor pikachu and look just underneath you’ll see a screenshot of masked pikachu jumping on a stage and smoke rising
Yeah and it looks nice. It looks more like a concert than a contest with all that stage effects, lighting and smoke. lol
Can I ask you guys something? I’m wondering why they kept Diancie’s ability a secret, when it was Magic bounce, an already known ability. Maybe to build suspense? Also, Contests AND a Mega Evolution Scoop next month??? This makes me crave Mega Milotic MORE. Maybe they will finally confirm Mega Lati@s and then tell us how to get it in the games?
Mega Diancie has Magic Bounce? Wow. It’s now tied with Tough Claws as the most common Mega ability.
I can’t see my name in the list, but I confirmed my participation in the tournament. I signed-up long ago via the form. Is the tournament for American’s only cause I’m from Europe. I havet a strong memory that I signed up..so is there a chance for me to be in it, even when I’m not listed in this article?
I’m from the uk and we had a designation date to confirm a while back
Like we had to confirm if we was still active the not so active members was removed
Are you sure you weren’t on the waiting list?
Nl with the rude burn
Nice and nasty
Laser are you still here?
We know why you wasn’t present on the list, it’s cause you signed up the for winter tourney and not the summers
Why does everyone associate Milotic with contests? Just because it is “the most beautiful pokemon in the world” (cough, Diancie) doesn’t mean it has anything to do with contests at all.
Because it evolves from Feebas with pokeblocks before gen 5, where it got the prism scale. It seems it was literally made for beauty contests.
Giving Mega Diancie Magic Bounce is just evil. I love it.
Magic Bounce Diancie. Well that things going to be a pain to take down.
Pshaw
Excadrill can break that thing easily
and if does have massive Defense nothing it can do would work on him
Toxic? Steel type!
Reflect? his Attack Power is greater along with a Life Orb
all i would need is like 2 really good Metal Claws and its down
Why Metal Claw? Iron Head exists
to hope for an attack boost
0_o magic bounce mega diancie
Also this mega evolution scoop sounds very interesting to me I wonder what that means
And coincidently,auges corocoro were the leaks that revealed mega evolution so maybe. Next months “scoop” will have 5-6 new megas
Last year August revealed 6 Megas. September revealed 6 Megas, and October revealed 4. And there were still plenty left to be discovered once the games were released.
September revealed. 6?!
Oh wait nvm
Mega starters,garchomp
Starters, Garchomp, Sperate Mewtwo Megas
eh, so tired, 7:52 (EST), going to sleep now, battle me when i wake up in 7 hours.
MAPLE WAKE UP ITS BEEN SEVEN HOURS!!!!! (in dog years)
While everyone is hyping so much on this corocoro next month, I’m still here eating for Americans to make a trailer and screenshots for this corocoro we could get so much
Waiting *
i would eat for it
Eating for Americans ~The Charity Event~
I’ll be there.
Mariooooooo
No wonder America is obese
I’m going on a plane today!
Morning y’all
Its Saturday and i have to friggin work…
But hopefully Sunday through Wed will rain, and Rain equals no Guests, and no Guests means no Garbage, and no Garbage to pick out means Nothing to do for 8 Hours
You hate garbage. Garbage is Trubbish. Trubbish is a Pokemon.
….
OMG YOU HATE POKEMON
(Lol jk)
Oh good. It looks like the corocoro scan shows pikachu as a stone… Yveltal WHY?????
Dude NO
No Movie Spoilers
Sorry… I just saw the new page that serebii had up and looked at it more closely… 🙁
Refresh… It’s gone for good… Still sorry about that.
Xerneus is always there….
Xerneas -_-
-_-
They’ll revive him, just like every other pokemon movie that has a “dead” character.
Of course they will! Or else Ash would still be dead.
Hopefully Mega Altaria in next month’s CoroCoro ;_;
Along with Mega Milotic ^_^
Or not
I’d probably sob.

I Think I remember that. XD
Yeah xD
Feelin’ happy!Comin’ wednesday is ma’ b’day!
Oh wow. I think I know why I like Gen 3 and up more than Gens 1 and 2.
Masuda didn’t direct Gens 1 and 2 xD
*Sweeps on Eevee Tourney*
*People keep rage quitting* -_-
They’re like,
Nope, if I’m not gonna win, you can’t either! >.<
It’s so annoying because it doesn’t count as a loss or a win so it’s a waste of time. Ugh, never joining another official tourney again -_-
Rage quitting should always count as a disqualification and win for the opponent. Always.
It still shows the same wins and losses as before for me ._.
Won’t it become like a forfeit?
Stop sweeping people then
I can’t ;_;
