  1. 1. Would you participate in a Pokemon tournament with other xat users?

    • Yes. $40 Subway card to use on xat (or not)
    • Yes. $40 worth of xats from a reseller
    • Yes, I wouldn't mind either prize.
    • No, but I still want to win the prize.
    • No, these prizes suck and Pokemon sucks.
      0
  2. 2. If yes, would you prefer 3DS or Pokemon Showdown?

    • 3DS
    • Pokemon Showdown
    • I picked no because the only Pokemon I know are Charizard and Pikachu.

Using latest generation Pokemon, most likely with VGC ruleset. I'd like to do one of these again, but last time I did it, it was very few people. It might have been due to lack of knowledge of competitive Pokemon, but that can be remedied.

 

Why a $40 Subway card?

I bought it online for use during Black Friday, but it was in Promotions so I didn't see it. I didn't get an email until today saying that it hasn't been seen. I thought I was SOL and lost $40. I have no use for it now. If people would prefer xats, I'll give it to someone else that isn't paid and wants to be around Christmas (or use it on myself hehehe).

 

$40 gift card can get you NameColor and a few more low value powers, but more importantly, it gives you the paid flag. You can also use it off xat if that's what you'd prefer.

 

$40 from a reseller can range anywhere from 13,000+ xats to well above 20,000 xats if you find the right person. I'll try to get the best rate, but if not, it's still more than the card.

 

I would prefer it if people posted with content, and not "great idea this would bring the community together" or something stupid.

VGC? Isn't that like doubles, using Rayquaza and Groudon?

 

I've not played gen 7, and my internet is terribad at the moment. But I'd definitely be up for Showdown OU singles in the future. (If you wanted to make it a weekly thing again.)

Since neither of them are available in Sun or Moon (AFAIK), they aren't allowed. Pokebank has not been updated to officially allow those Pokemon to be obtained. There are ways to circumvent that, though... and yes, doubles.

If you're looking for numbers, count me out. I don't know the first thing about the game.

 

If you're looking for opinions, I think you could easily round up enough people to play. 

I think last time it was about 12 and a third of them had to leave.

Maybe for the first quarter of next year, when things slow down.

 

(I'd combine replies, but copying quotes is kinda tedious)
