​

Since there have been no Pokemon tournaments recently I wanted to host a series of Pokemon tourneys called Blaziken Blitz. The first tourney will be Dream World OU and then at the end of each tourney in this thread you guys can post what tier you want to do next (example: Wifi, Ubers, UU, Gen 4 OU). If there are 20 or more people (which is unlikely) we will do pools!!! If we have pools there will also be an Amateur Bracket too! After each event there will be 4 days to figure out the next tier and then 10 days to Sign-Up.

General Rules

1. Generation 5 Pokemon Only
2. No Unreleased Pokemon
3. Item Clause
4. Double Battle
5. All sets are best of three
6. Banned Pokemon: Arceus, Darkrai, Deoxys-A, Deoxys-N, Dialga, Giratina, Giratina-O, Groudon, Ho-Oh, Kyogre, Lugia, Manaphy, Mewtwo, Palkia, Rayquaza, Reshiram, Shaymin-S, Zekrom
7. Bring 6 Pokemon
8. While viewing the Pokémon on their opponent's team, each player selects four Pokémon to use during the battle.
9. Simulator: Pokemon Online
10. Server: Pokemon Online
11. You must save all logs
12. Post in the thread after each match saying if you won or loss, no need to send logs to me initially. If there is a dispute then the logs will be sent to me.
13. Finals are best of five.
14. All Pokemon are Level 50.

Bracket Play

1. Each round will last for 7 days
2. Use the PM system on SWF to contact your opponent if you can't through other means such as AIM. Send all messages to your opponent also to me as proof to show you reaching out to your opponent.
3. In the event of a match not happening, the host will determine the winner based on proof of whose fault it was for the match not happening.

History:

1st Blaziken Blitz - DW OU

Winner - vVv ChiboSempai

Entrants: 3

Interview:
1. Its pretty impressive going through a whole tourney and only losing 1 match. How did you do that?

Well, it's not really appropriate to say that since it was only a single best of 5 match. It was more surprising that I won 3 straight matches in a row after losing one, while continuing to use the same team. At least, I believe the game I lost was the first, I don't remember exactly. It was the first time I REALLY used the team. I literally just took my regular Wifi team, took off my Fire pokemon (at the time Blaziken), and put on Shadow Tag Chandelure, because it's that good. I believe it single handedly won me two of the three games vs you. I would say I practiced the team for maybe 2 or 3 matches on Pokemon Online before playing you, just to kind of get into the swing of it. But without going onto a further tangent, yes it was Shadow Tag Chandelure that did a lot of the work for me. Once it comes in on something that it completely walls, a 6 Calm Mind setup is indispensable.

2. How did you come back from the 4 stock 1st match against me?

I considered switching teams, but that was the only Dream World team I had. I could have competed with my regular Wifi team that I was more familiar with, but I figured it wouldn't have changed much since it was still essentially the same team. I just pressed on with my team, kept good notes throughout the matches, and played more intelligently. I suppose the shock from the first lost kind of kicked me into gear so to say.

If you noticed I did something key in the first game. When I knew basically it was impossible to win, I forfeit early so you wouldn't see the rest of my team to keep at least some advantage for the next game. Mainly, I didn't let you see my Chandelure - even though I could have sent it out pretty safely vs your Blaziken to try and win game 1.

3. What was your hardest challenge in the tourney?

Probably the match vs you, since it was the only one lol. Joking aside, it was being faced with an incredibly important match (since it started off in grand finals), and losing game 1. I knew I had only one team prepared, and once you caught on to the fact that I used the same team over and over, you were free to counter it. I was in a terrible position, so faced with needing to make a massive comeback with the same team over and over was quite the challenge.

4. Did anything surprise you in this tournament?

I referred back to the game logs to answer this, since I know some things did. The first thing off the bat was your Zoroark. Even after your ESPEON used NIGHT DAZE I was still clueless. As I mentioned I am used to Wifi so I've never had to deal with it before. Once I switched into my Ferrothorn to resist it I then got hit with Flamethrower. Right off the bat that just set me up for a terrible game, though thankfully I didn't fall for it in subsequent games.
