UPD: Dragon Type has been added to the tournament!
After numerous delays, over one hundred intense battles we finally have our very first PokéJungle Champion. We’re still awaiting results for the third place winner, expect details on that soon!
Without further ado, we;re very proud to announce that Maple of the Ecruteak Group is our 2014 PokéJungle Champion. From the entire PokéJungle Team and all of our readers, we congratulate you on your victory and can’t wait to see you participate in future tournaments! Second place in the tournament was taken by Lasgorndalf of Fallarbor Group, with the winner for third place still to be determined.
A full winners ceremony post including battle videos will be made available as soon as possible, with full team and tournament analysis to be completed by NL in the coming days. We’ll also have a tournament review and feedback article available soon for you guys to tell us what you liked and disliked about the tournament, as well as providing vital feedback to us.
Once again we congratulate not Maple on their victory in our first and largest PokéJungle Tournament, but to everyone who has been part of this massive event. Things haven’t run as smoothly as we wanted, but it’s been an amazing experience for everyone involved and we can’t wait to see all of our readers take part in future community events.

October ’14 Tournament
Some of you remember that we previously teased that we would be bringing additional smaller tournaments to the site, today we’re pleased to partially announce the next tournament! Expect full details in the coming days, with sign-ups opening very soon.
This tournament comes from the mind of DefensiveBastiodon (with a little direction from me that I wanted themed tournaments ;)). This tournament (as of yet unnamed) will feature seven types only: Ghost, Dark, Psychic, Bug, Fairy, Dragon and Poison. All battles will be in the VGC Double 4v4 style.
As we said, we’ll bring more details very soon so potential participants can sign up and have a month to construct their teams. Stay tuned!
***
So, I guess it’s time to personally thank everyone who has taken part in this first tournament, or given us support or feedback in regards to it. I won’t lie and say that there haven’t been any disappointments along the way, but I think all of us staff and readers have done an amazing job for our first attempt at something so big.
Thank you all, and I know both me and everyone else on the staff team can’t wait to have more community events like this in the future.
Y’all need to get along though. You’re all a massive pain in the arse in the comments, so get along. Or I will ban you. I will find you and I will ban you. Ya read me?
I read you master!
You rang?
Crystal clear
Omg yes.
Yes sir Mr. Moving sir.
Well, congrats, I guess! 😀
It sucks that I couldn’t join though.
Maybe next year
wat animal Exploud based to ?
Sound Purple Thing That Evolves From Sound Purple Thing That Evolves From Sound Pink Thing
Loud Noises and the pipes and holes from a pipe organ
*what animal *is Exploud based *on? A bass creature.
thanx but i am asking about animal .
It isn’t based on an animal xD
it should be .
It isn’t one tho xD
So, for the October tourney, is it mono, like each person has to pick a type with lots of repeats, or you can pick your pokes out of those types? And grats to Maple, Las, and Basti/Alice.
I can’t wait to see the videos 😀
You can pick a mixture. Up to you if you want to go mono or not!
So 6 pokes, or 4?
VGC style, so six. But you battle with four of the six.
Okay, that’s what I thought, I just wanted to make sure I didn’t tell Ook the wrong thing.
😀
I already got a pretty good team.
I’m just plotting for all the OU bby
Greninja, Aegislash, Azumarill, Mawile >:D
Just kidding, I probably won’t enter seeing as I can’t get through my first breeding project xD
I think I’ll do the October tourney.
I will choose Bug.
I think you get to pick a mixture of them.
Or 1 poke of each, but you can only use 4 per battle.
Bug, Dark, Fairy, Ghost then.
No, like, in VCG, you have a team of 6 pokes, but you can use any different 4 per battle.
Okay
So
What if you accidentally misclick a fifth xD
Well you would have to click on a fifth, confirm, then enter, so I dunno.
They would prolly set a limit.
xD
Okay! 😀
I’m pumped!!!!!!!!!
I like this tourney
Well hello there!
evolve already
Sure
Jk :p
No
Do it on November 21st bby
Make me
I will show you ORAS and you’ll go WOW
BAM
Evolved
Inb4 Greninja and Aegislash and Mawile/M Mawile and Azumarill
I’m using Aegi and M Mawile ;(
Seeeee
^^^
Thank you Moving for hosting the first PJT I always wanted one, I lost but it was worth it I enjoyed myself
It’s all about taking part!
‘over one hundred intense battles’
That much
There were over one hundred?
Really? I’d have thought there would have been less.
There were 40
Yup! There were at least 130. Some people didn’t submit their results, so without working it all out I can’t give the exact number.
:O
Woah. So many videos :O
If each group had 6 people…there would be 15 battles per group. Multiply by 8 groups…That’s 120. Then 16 in the final 16 (including the third place match) there should be have been 136 in total.
A few people had to battle again in tie-breaks. Then there were some who didn’t battle everyone in their group. 136ish.
Anyway. Congratulations to the winner, congrats to everyone for participating….and a job well done to the staff for hosting an amazing tournament.
Yeah, hosting tourneys are really complex.
There goes everyone hopes of using Pachirisu
Interesting. There is always Follow Me Togekiss
Shhhhh you are giving away my pokemon!
Oh man i remember that guy, i always hated it!
I’m there is some douchy moveset that someone can screw over someone else using a Dedenne, although no Follow Me. (It’s part Fairy, so maybe it counts?)
Here comes my OP team that everyone will hate xD
Any guesses of my Pokemon?
I know it entirely :3
You do
xD
Are Normal types allowed?
Only the types listed. Will have full details soon 😛
Can I use Mew?
It is UU
Or Latios (OU)
Or is it just no legends
Details. Soon. 😛
Okayyyy 😀
I am already pereping a team though
Not even Ground or Fighting…..
I just wanted to use Whiscash.
What’s your build?
Cause i’ve only tried Jolly Dragon Dance in the past
Impish Defensive Dragon Dance with Zen Headbutt and Same Type Attack Bonus
You mean STAB?
Yeah Whiscash is a cool pokemon but getting it off the Ground is a bit of a tricky thing
Honestly i think my ORAG Ground Journey Whishcash will just be my HM Slave, sad but more Poke do his job better
Yup
That’s what STAB stands for
At least you are using my favorite Pokemon 😀
And it’s a ground type >:D
Ooks come to pm
Okay! 😀
What is it?
Just remember i am the true Ground Master round these parts
OMG I have te trolliest idea
Hahahhaha xD
SubPunch Mega Mawile >:D
Get ready to get rekked
Nope it’s not that
I know xD
I am doing a Trick Room team as well
And using a SubPunch set on Mawile
And an Aromatisse.
I probably will exchange Starmie and Greninja for slower stuff
Trick room doesn’t work out too well second I can still wreck mega mawile
Maybe
And maybe not.
Trick Room is actually amazing in VGC since the battles dont really last too long
Even more trollier then my Mud Slap Sand veil Stunfisk with Double Team?
I know it already.
You actually don’t XD I said that base of my plan I never revealed how I’m gonna use the pokemon
There is going to be so much trolling in the next tournament. I have a very trollish idea myself.
Yeah i could never troll its just isn’t me
I think I’m going to skip the next tournament….
;(
Me too, for college reasons.
All this trick room talk got me scared for it
Hmmmm Trick Room Rhyperior with Iron Ball for Skarmory and Talonflames
All the pokemon you listed are unusable
ya just gotta burst my bubble don’tcha
Better me then joining the tourney and getting disqualified
he is probably saying it for himself not for the tourney
XD be warned m8
My team is going to be part rain, part troll
interesting combo
Mine is all about illusions :3 (no zoroack isn’t on the team)
zoroark*
I can’t wait to see full details
Get ready to be Aegi’d
And Aroma’d
That is all
And Greninja’d
inb4 trick room on a greninja
inb4 Taunt Greninja
inb4 predicition 😛
Maybe a Bug Mono team?
that could be fun to make
Lol go ahead and try it
None of those types are supper effective on bug
UNLESS you have Dark/Rock, Dark/Fire,.. or any of the above types with /Rock, /Fire, or /Flying.
Here I am brainstorming Double ideas when I have my work to do. I would probably wreck Doubles, but
1) My teams are not ready for doubles (I’m currently working Triples)
2) College. ‘Nuff said.
3) I have several ideas in mind that I need to boil down to a few good ones.
4) A combination of 1) and 2).
Meh, you all have your tourney, I’ll just get back to doing my assignments some more. :'( Peace y’all.
Literally none of the types work for me
Everyone is just going to use the same crap
Assumin much
Lets see
Sableye
Weezing
Gardevoir
Gengar
Mawile
Mandibuzz
Scizor
well most of those work better in singles than doubles
Doubles is a whole different playing field
I’m going with only two of those xD
I hope Item Clause returns
Goodbye strategy
OMG NO i can already imagine all the amoongus in this tourney 0-0
I am totally Joining
Once I see all the rules and find shiny Mareep I will proceed to make my team
same. I found some of the most trollies yet powerful pokemon to use
Well don’t share them out loud here or you might give away what some people are using
Can’t wait to see the battle videos! I faced a couple of really cool and unique pokes which made the tourney fun for me. It seems like the more “standard” teams came out on top which is expected. Looking forward to seeing different strategies from this tourney and the next. I already have a couple of good ideas myself 🙂
O_O In the ORAS trailer, when they showed the Aqua sub, the Aqua goon was 2 times the size of May omg O_O
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) o bby
SAVE ME TITAN ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
