What is The Fifth Official PokéBeach Tournament?

The Fifth Official PokéBeach Tournament is the official video game tournament of the PokéBeach Forums. It recognizes one person whose skill is greater than anyone everyone else. Past users who have won this tournament are decorated with a trophy for their outstanding run in one of the most prestigious Pokémon tournaments on the web.

What changes can we expect for this tournament?

The first thing you can expect to be different is that all battles will be done on Shoddy Battle. Shoddy Battle is an online battle simulator of DPP. It is quick to download, easy and free to use. For more information on Shoddy Battle, go to the main page PokéBeach website or Shoddy Battle's official website. Other things you can expect to see are a few minor changes to the rules. All of the mandatory clauses are still the standard rules you would expect. They are just listed as seen on Shoddy Battle.

Registrations end when we have at least 96 players, and the substitute registrations die off a little.

Battle Rules:

• Species Clause
  - You cannot have two or more of the same species of a Pokémon on your team.
  -- Example: You cannot have two Charmanders on your team.
• *Uber Clause
  - Pokémon in the "Uber" tier list are not allowed to be on your team.
• Sleep Clause
  - You cannot put two of your opponent's Pokémon asleep at the same time.
  -- Using moves that put your own Pokémon to sleep like rest will not trigger the Sleep Clause.
• Evasion Clause
  - A pokémon cannot use moves raise its evasion stat.
  -- Traits and Moves that indirectly increase a Pokémon's evasion do not break this clause.
  -- Items like Brightpowder do not break this clause.
• Freeze Clause
  - You cannot freeze two of your opponent's Pokémon.
• OHKO Clause
  - A Pokémon cannot use moves OHKO moves.
  -- Example: Fissure
• Soul Dew Clause
  - A Pokémon cannot use the Soul Dew item.
  -- Example: Latias holding Soul Dew
• Self-KO Clause
  - If both players are down to one Pokémon each, you are not allowed to use a move that KOs both Pokémon to force a tie.
  -- If a recoil damage move forces a tie, then the Self-KO Clause does not trigger. Please notify Kevin Garrett if this happens during your match.
