Team Uber Season 2 Playoffs!

Season Two has finally come to an end, and is now time for the playoffs! Each of the eight combatants have proven themselves by scoring high and making the playoffs. If you did not make the top 8 this time, better luck in Season 3, which I hope to host during the summer!

These are the final eight:


Stone - 21 Points
Darkrai -16 Points
Blackout – 15 Points
Kuja20 – 14 Points
Iconic – 12 Points
Hector – 11 Points
Mosers – 10 Points
Welorg – 10 Points


Congrats to the final eight for making the playoffs. Here is how the tournament will work: Three Rounds total, this is a single elimination tournament so once you have lost you are out. Each round you must play your opponent in ALL three tiers( OU, Uber and UU); i.e. best of three. Play them in the order of your preference, as long as there is a winner.

Battling Rules

For Uber Battles: All pokes allowed EXCEPT Arceus. It has not officially been released yet, so that is banned for now.

For OU Battles: Garchomp, Skymin, Wobbuffet and Deoxys-E are banned. This is should be known already.

For UU Battles: Smogon UU is in place when playing UU. More people generally preferred this, so Smogon UU it is.


Species Clause – You cannot use more than one of the same pokemon in your team.
Freeze Clause – You cannot freeze more than one pokemone.
OHKO Clause - Any moves that induce an instant KO like Horn Drill are banned.
Evasion Clause – Moves like Double Team and Minimise are banned.
Sleep Clause – You cannot put more than one pokemon to sleep.
Self KO Clause – You cannot use any moves that KO yourself when both you and your opponent are on your last poke.



1st Place receives 100,000 Points and a place in the Hall of Fame!
2nd Place receives 50,000 Points and a place in the Hall of Fame!

Good Luck to everyone! Matchup’s will be posted in the 2nd post.

Welorg certaintly impressed me. He had me in OU, I haxed him but I told him it's his win. I don't like cheaitng people out of wins in tournaments. So then came UU...he had me 6-4 and I somehow managed to come back for a 1-0 victory at 30%. Shaymin sweep:D

Ubers...isn't welorgs best tier lol.


I win.


GG man

No hes not, hes against the winner of Hec vs Blackout -.-

He's against Stone...

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8

1 vs 8
2 vs 7
3 vs 6
4 vs 5

As you can see, first and last always get paired up. It doesn't go by 1 vs 2, 3 vs 4, etc; the pattern goes 1 vs 8, 2 vs 7, etc. So Stone won (number 1) and Iconic won (Number 5), they will get matched up. Not Stone against the winner of (Number 2 vs Number 3).

If you understand the logic of what I'm saying.... It's the same method used by Smogon, and it makes sense as the person with the most points to start off with gets the best advantage. While the person with the lowest points gets paired up with the higheest points.

i am cool
05-15-2009, 02:54 PM
So 2 Vs 6, meaning Mosers Vs. Blackou / Hector?

I agree, because the fewer games I have to play against Stone the better :D.

Hehe in all seriousness whoever plays who is fine with me, I just wanna have fun with it ^_^.

Yush, not like smogon, Eternal, you are not running the tour anymore, I am. Both my way and your way are logical, but I hate ripping off Smogon's style of things.

The brackets are like this:

[Winner of Stone vs Welorg] vs [Winner of Mosers vs Darkrai]
[Winner of Hector vs Blackout] vs [Winner of Kuja vs Mosers]

And thats how it is, it doesn't make huge difference. Its bracketed not however Smogon does it, I'd rather keep it simple for now.

Anyway once S3 comes around, I'm hoping for a smoother tour, i.e. not having the site/shoddy server go down. I want to change the points system (anyone who can give me extra suggestions on how that is done please contact me).

That method wasn't created by Smogon. <_<

It is used in all major tournaments in real life... because its logical and concise...

so I don't understand why you wouldn't follow the logical way.

05-16-2009, 01:58 AM
I don't understand why you won't wanna do it the way he wants to?

It doesn't really matter lol. Theres gonna be the same result. A winne rand a loser.

Both my way and your way is logical, and yes I do know the way you are describing wasn't created by Smogon, but I am the one running the tour, I don't mind the suggestions, but you are not running things here Eternal, and as Stone says, their really isn't much difference. If you don't like it well, tough.

I'm just trying to suggest this because it doesn't make sense to use a different method to configure match ups from round 1. Why change the match up method for Round 2? This will effect future Teamuber Seasonal Tournaments, as you and others will be confused of your match up method.

Shut up....Blackout hasn't been around hardly the past week. You seriously needa just shut up. He quit anyway so HEC advances. Learn not to be an idiot.

But doesn't seem to care about his match...

I lost to Hector 1-0 in OU and 3-0 in Ubers. gg Hec <3

Kuja20
05-17-2009, 06:19 PM
Blackout claimed he quit, so what other choice do I have but put Hector through? Should I wait until 2012 til they can get a battle done? <_<

Congrats Hector.

Finals: Hector vs Stone

Good luck to both ;)

If not, it's cool...

Eternal this is not your tour, since when do you dish out the points? Stop trying to run things, let me make one thing crystal clear, leave it all this stuff to me.

Plus we are taking a breather before Season 3, no need to rush into anything.

Good Job HECTOR and tough luck Stoners :( <3

You don't seem to have the points to dish out. So you should thank me for that... hahaha...

And i'm making suggestions as to what the best times for you to host the tournaments because of Smogon Season 8 is starting and will be hosting in the weekends.

Also, don't act like since you're an Admin now that you own the place. I would've stayed Admin if I wanted to. And remember I created these Teamuber seasonal tournaments and you have no right to tell me that I can't change anything because "you somehow took control of it." You didn't even ask me that you wanted to take control of it. I didn't say anything until now because I thought you would do a good job. So you should take my suggestions wisely.

So you should take my suggestions wisely.I don't mind the suggestions, i like to hear the suggestions.

But as to you "creating them", you merely took the idea from Smogon, and changed the name to TU Seasonal Tours. You were barely around to ask, plus you didn't exactly ask Smogon if you could apply the same here, so don't pull that one on me. You quit, so I took over, and trust me it's been difficult because of the major site changes and the servers going down on a regular basis.

I don't wanna run everything, just the bits that I can, so I run the Seasonal Tours, thats just me pulling my weight towards helping keep activity for the server. You are welcome to help me out with this, but please don't immediately take control of it, at least wait for me. Also I can dish out points directly from the admin panel, it's not benefitting myself so it's fine.

Anyway, now I'm gonna concentrate on preparing for Season 3, which should be fun. Any suggestions towards helping me would be great i.e. Rules, Tiers or w/e, I'll set up a thread for that ;).

Thanks to everyone who has helped me run this I appreciate all help that has been given. And Eternal, I will definately take the advice of when on the weekends I should run the tours.

Good Job again to Hector & Stone.

I did ask Smogon for permission. I know almost every Moderator and Admin there and they're all ok on this. Don't assume I didn't. Most of them even came to many of those tournaments I created.


You were barely around to ask

I was on the forum about 5/7 days a week when I was inactive. I wasn't active, but I checked every day. So you could've just PM'd me.


You quit, so I took over, and trust me it's been difficult because of the major site changes and the servers going down on a regular basis.

I never quitted. I quitted my position as an Admin because I was busy with life and could not be active as an Admin. No one likes an inactive Admin.


Also I can dish out points directly from the admin panel, it's not benefitting myself so it's fine.

I saved you time. So what's the problem?
