Title says it all pretty much...let me explain a bit...
I'm completely ignorant when it comes to the VG. I do understand a little bit and can pick up what I need to know quickly, if and when I need it. Organizing a TCG tournament is pretty simple: more or less, I decide the format (constructed, draft, sealed, etc) and the players show up with either a deck or money to buy packs for sealed. The VG seems a bit more complicated....so, if anything I ask sounds down right dumb, I apologize. But here are so me question I'm curious about while contemplating a tournament to give away BW2.
1. What are standard formats for VG?
2. Is there a way (locally) to autolevel to 50 like big tournaments? If not, any guidance?
3. Is there a way authenticate Pokemon (locally) or is it more of a trust system? If not, any guidance?
4. Is there a preferred sync/link up method locally? Like, pairing people online some how, or are they just paired, then sync'ed together at the table.
Any other issues I should be concerned about that I'm just too ignorant to know, please add. Also, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping to have a huge "prerelease" party for BW2, having a video game tournament giving away one of each as prizes. Nothing in stone yet, just weighing the pros, cons, and feasibility before jumping into it.
