So 4 copies of one basic or 1 copy of one basic?

So 4 copies of one basic or 1 copy of one basic?

One copy of one basic Pokemon, for a total of one Pokemon per deck. :thumb:

Another question, which only applies if we can use fossils: It's still a 6 prize game, right?

EDIT: Yes, it is still a six prize game.

F.A.Q.

Q) May I use Fossils or Old Amber?

A) Yes, you may. Fossils, while considered Basic Pokemon, are technically trainers.


BTW, are you serious about the 1 PM limit? I don't think I can make a reasonable write up and make it so short for this format.

EDIT: Yes I am. I've discovered that the only times people tend to go over the one PM limit is if they are not too concerned with concise writing, so if you strive to do that, then you'll be fine.

So you can play say

"the basic"
AND
Xx fossils?

EDIT: Yes, you may.

[Jason]

lol
no davidy, i think not.

 

[Lucario EX]

I bet all of those in the LA division will submit the following decklist:

1 Kyogre, 59 water
or
1 Groudon, 59 Fighting

Lol.

I would have picked Rayquaza.

 

[Jason]

What if you flip tails on your first flip? Fail.

 

[DreamChaser AJ]

Holy Mother of (Diamond and) Pearl. Wow, this should be fun. Good luck RainbowGym!

 

[SuperWooper]

My entry's in. Best of luck to my opponent, Davidy321, as well as the other fourteen competitors left standing!

 

[Brady1]

Sent mine as well (though I miscounted at first and had too many trianers). This format was actually easy to do, set by set. Theres at least 5 staples for every deck.

 

[Rainbowgym]

Wow, I am still figuring out if I yes/no want to use fossils, which will most likely give me doubt untill it's almost to late to send in.

 

[PokemansForGeeks]

Man, this is tough...

 

[Magnechu]

SF trainers and Energy ARE legal right?

Yes, indeed they are!

[SuperWooper]

Entries are due a minute before midnight tonight! Good luck to my fellow Top 16 competitors.

 

[Brady1]

Snap, really? Its been 9 days? Anyways, I found this challenge to be a bit too easy...

 

[SuperWooper]

All of these people will be exiting the contest with at least a few booster packs, but they are still fighting for the grand prize of 24 packs.

Also, in case anyone is to ever do a Tournament of Champions-style event, I HIGHLY recommend that you invite these eight to it. I will not run anymore Iron Chef competitions, but in case someone else does, then consider my endorsement every bit official. Invite all or none!

Boosters and invites to the ToC? Very nice. =D

Can't wait for the challenges. I'll go ahead and predict that the format is going to open up a few sets at a time until we get Base Set-on for the Top 2. Item Finder + Luxury ball FTW.
