so when do the give you a chance to switch pokemon/ items
You can only choose from the six Pokemon on your team info sheet, but you can choose which four Pokemon you want to use at the start of each battle. You can swap items around between battles as well. You're probably going to be sticking with the same 4 Pokemon and items through the whole thing, though. Since you don't know your opponent's team, there's no reason to change what team you use between rounds.
How good is Snorlax now choiced with self destruct? Dusknoir for a trick room team could be incredible if you start dusk and lax.

Looks like its my one this Saturday then Looking forward to it a lot, but there's some question that haven't been answered on their site that I'm wondering about... I mean, I know it's single elimination first X amount of rounds, but if you 'survive' that what happens? Someone mentioned a winners lounge, so when you reach thaere does the format change to best of 3 or still single elimination? Thanks guys, appreciate it a lot!

The first 4 rounds are the preliminary rounds - they flood the players until all the players have either won 4 in a row, or got knocked out. After all the other players have either won 4 rounds or been knocked out - then the players in the finalist lounge continue playing. If the player count is not to the power of 2 (2/4/8/16/32/64/etc) then some people will receive byes this "5th" round to make the player count even for the 6th round.
The entire tournament is single elimination. Swiss is saved for Nationals and Worlds.
Hope that helped.
