I've heard a lot of those sorts of comments which is fine and everything, but everyone has to remember, this is supposed to be fun. If you lose, you lose. That's just how it goes. Not everyone will be using Pokemon you don't want to face and not everyone will have time to put together some dream team that will destroy the competition. The tournament starts soon, registration starts sooner, so everyone has had limited time to put together what they can, and that's how it is! I think instead of worrying about what you may or may not face or what kind of things your opponent may use against you, just remember first and foremost, we're all here to have fun.

Point is, I don't want anyone feeling discouraged about it when it's not for a while yet. k? :)

And who knows, if all runs smoothly, we may or may not decide one day down the road to try it again in a different format on a recreational level. But for today, and Pokemon week, those are the rules, and I encourage everyone to join. The more people we have, the more battles everyone can get in and the more fun we all have, right?

So everyone put their smiling faces on and get ready for some fun -> :)
