| WELCOME! TO THE ANNUAL RAYQUAZA FORUMS CHRISTMAS TOURNAMENT! The theme this year is Little Cup, which I'm sure most of you got from the title of this topic. Well, Little Cup isnt like standard play, there are a few extra rules. - Spoiler:
Little Cup Rules:
Pokémon: Players are allowed a team of up to 6 Pokémon that meet the following conditions: The Pokémon must be able to evolve. The Pokémon must be the earliest evolution stage obtainable. The Pokémon must be at Level 5. The Pokémon must not be on the Ubers list. Species Clause - Only one Pokémon may be on a team from each species.
Ubers - The following are banned from use in Little Cup:
Meditite Gligar Scyther Sneasel Tangela
Abilities, Items, and Moves:
Abilities: Moody is banned.
Items: Pokémon in Little Cup are allowed to hold items, as in any Pokémon match. The "Item Clause" is not in effect in Little Cup, multiple teammates can hold the same item. The item Berry Juice is banned.
Moves: Pokémon in Little Cup can use (nearly) any move available to them at Level 5. All non-genderless Pokemon can use their level-up moves, and genderless Pokemon can use any 3rd generation level-up move in conjunction with any TMs. Sonicboom and Dragon Rage are both banned moves. Further information on illegal move combinations is located here.
OHKO Clause - Moves that score a guaranteed One-hit-KO on the opponent, such as Sheer Cold, Horn Drill, Guillotine, or Fissure, are banned.
Evasion Clause - Moves that directly increase a users Evasion such as Double Team and Minimize are banned.
Battle Mechanics:
Sleep Clause - Only one Pokémon can be put to sleep by an opponent at a time, per team.
Self-KO Clause - If an opponent uses Selfdestruct or Explosion with their last Pokémon, they lose the game regardless of the number of Pokémon remaining on the other team.
Evasion Clause - Moves that boost evasion (i.e. Double Team and Minimize) are not allowed.
Other than that, standard rules and clauses apply. Unlike other tournies thrown by me, you will not know who your opponent is ahead of time, and you will have a certain amount of time to get your battles done. I will be stricter this time than i have in the past as well. As this is a Little Cup tournament, and i am a Little Cup researcher, i would like to see what you guys are using so that i may store it in my database. DO NOT worry, your teams will remain confidential. Also, after you pm me your team, your team is locked, no changes will be allowed to be made, after your first round battle. THANK YOU TO ALL IN ADVANCE and remember: GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!Sign-Ups Begin Immediately and will close Tuesday - Spoiler:

| I have given Pawn the permission to host the Christmas Tourney, so this will count as a Forum Official Tournament. So winning this Tournament will gain you access into the "Tournament Winners" group. | |

| For sake of actually getting this done by Christmas I'd say you'll want this done only on PO/Showdown, as getting them on DS will be very tricky. Otherwise this looks very good so far Pawn, well done | |

| I mean't the banlist makes sand the dominant strategy since the banlist if full of pokes that check and/or counter sand teams

| So you're saying everyone should run snover if the don't want to deal with sand? Smogon forgot how to male a proper banlist when B/W were released. If you notice, everything they do promotes sand teams. | |
