Welcome to the second official season of PokeBeach Battle of the Week! Due to it's success in season one, Battle of the Week is back, and better than ever. With a fresh lineup of battlers, this season is sure to turn out great. For those of you who are new to this, here is what Battle of the Week is:

Battle of the Week is when the best battlers of PokeBeach gather, and 2 of them face off once a week. New battlers will be put into the poll every week. You as a community will vote on who gets to battle, which is then uploaded to YouTube. (this is so everybody who missed watching it live will still be able to see it.) There will also be commentary via Skype going on for each match!

Battle of the Week History
Week 1

Week 1- Pride vs bacon-boy- Won by Pride

Week 1 pitted 2 of pokebeach's veterans against each other. Super Mod Pride, and Moderator bacon-boy. It was an exciting match from start to finish. Pride appeared to take control, but for a time, it appeared bacon would mount a comeback with his Slowbro. In the end, Pride ended up winning because he forgot to change Hidden Power Dark to Hidden Power Ice, so he is able to hit Slowbro super effectively. (lolwut.) Pride takes week 1 by a score of 2-0. A huge thanks goes out to JaySee for recording this match. :)

Week 2

Week 2 - King Arceus vs. TDL

Week 2 had another battle between Super Moderator vs. Moderator with King Arceus against TDL. They were at each other's throats with the classic match up of Sand and Rain. KA appeared to make a powerful prediction catching TDL's Scizor with his own Magnezone but Scizor shocked everyone by outspeeding Magnezone and ko'ing the trapper with Super Power. From there TDL worked his position until he reached his win conditions. A score of 4-0.

Rules
  • Species Clause
    -You cannot have two or more of the same species of a Pokémon on your team.
    -- Example: You cannot have two Charmander on your team.
  • Uber Clause
    - Pokémon in the "Uber" tier list are not allowed to be on your team. These Pokemon are: Arceus, Blaziken, Darkrai, Deoxys (Normal and Attack formes only), Dialga, Excadrill, Garchomp, Giratina (both formes), Groudon, Ho-Oh, Kyogre, Latios, Lugia, Manaphy, Mewtwo, Palkia, Rayquaza, Reshiram, Shaymin-S, Thundurus, and Zekrom
    -- Because they have not been officially released, Keldeo, Meloetta (both formes), and Genesect may not be used on any 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 or items that directly increase its evasion stat.
    -- Sand Veil and Snow Cloak do not break this clause. BrightPowder and Lax Incense do 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
  • 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. The match will then be declared a draw.

Side Note: The type of match will be determined by the participants. The two players may choose to do an Underused, Doubles, Ubers, VGC, or some other kind of match as long as it isn’t challenge cup. Most will probably be standard OU, but other tiers are possible.


Spectator Rules:
  • The battle window is not for conversation. I expect mostly quiet from the spectators. One reason is that the two battlers need to concentrate in order to have the best match possible. Having text consistently moving up their right screen is very distracting. The second reason is that the battles will appear on YouTube. YouTubers need to be able to read the text, so please try to be professional and not talk during the match. Now I’m not saying total silence for the entire match is required, but you can’t just blurt out the first thing that comes to your mind.
  • The matches will be held on either Saturday or Sunday at the determined time by the two participants. We are not going to hold the match for you. If you want to watch, get there on time.
  • If you are on Skype with a mic, please don’t swear, or use profanity of any kind. (racist jokes, etc.) Again, this will be on YouTube for everybody to see. If you do use improper language, we will promptly remove you from the current, and from future Skype conversations.
  • If you are a participating battler and you are also on Skype, no cheating. (not that we expect you to.) If you are watching 2 players face off, and you know all about 1 of the participants teams, don’t spoil the surprise. We want to be surprised. Especially, however, not if one of the battlers is on Skype.

If anybody has the ability to record the match while being on Skype chat, please let me know. It's impossible for me to be there 100% of the time, so a backup would be cool. If you have Skype and some recording device that can pick up Skype conversations, let me know. it would be much appreciated. :)

If you are interested in either participating in the Skype commentary or to join the following week's poll, send a message to either [smod]Pride[/smod] or [smod]King Arceus[/smod] asking to join!
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

Since we had some technical difficulties last time, I'd want to see a rematch between DJXO9 and DittoCrow ^_^
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

I voted for DJ for the chance of him versus Pride or Ditto, either way it should be good. :b
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

Lol I think I faced DJ over a year ago, a rematch would be cool! Next time you should put WhiteCollar on the poll; he's a good battler and his battles are always entertaining.
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

R-C and Spammy let's go.
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

I KEEP FORGETTING ABOUT THESE :'[

DittoCrow and Hyperbeem is definitely something I would like to see. Also the grammar in the KA vs. TDL summary is strange.
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

I got a vote from JaySee yipee?

- R-C

DittoCrow vs. DJX09 should be it

Oh dear God no. anything but that.

I remember last year when they played each other. The battle went on for ages, both teams were Stall, and 5 out of their 6 Pokémon were the same. And then it ended in a disconnect.

Lets not repeat a complete mirror match this time. :p

Hot 'N Spicy vs DittoCrow/DJXO9. One of those would be great.
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

Daft Punk Vs. Chillarmy

or

Chillarmy Vs. R-C

I'd like to face off against any of them. ;)
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

Teapot obviously doesn't know a good battle when he sees one.
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

if you haven't already voted, please do so today so we can give your participates enough time to schedule a match together
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting

Okay then! Our battle this week will be DittoCrow vs. Hyper(beem or Hot 'N Spicy =p) Please let everyone know when you have decided on a time to battle!
 
RE: PokeBeach Battle of the Week II - Week III Voting
