So I had a test of the pokermon idea, between bk and bbbrrr. Here's the chat logs.

yup

BKamakaze - Today at 12:23 AM
mkay

pholtos - Today at 12:23 AM
and none of your switches are revealed to bbbrrr

pholtos - Today at 12:26 AM
might make it a requirement to at least be on discord to get in contact with me for the draws :P

BKamakaze - Today at 12:33 AM
wait, can i choose between hoopa or thundurus's forms? or are they listed as seperate pokemon?

pholtos - Today at 12:33 AM
they're separate

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yo, was wondering if you'd like to test pokermon with bk, as a sort of side thing for my next tournament.

Basically if you're all right with it, then basically how this works is I will give you 6 pokemon, and you tell me which you'd like to hold and which you'd like to redraw, up to 4.

After that you do the same thing, but with up to 2.

That is your team for facing bk.

Here would be your starting hand:
Toucannon
Slurpuff
Forretress
Haxorus
Simisage
Servine

Edit: Almost forgot, for this to be a proper test, I'd be telling you bk's starting hand.
This is bk's starting hand:
Virizion
Kommo-o
Thundurus
Dewgong
Scrafty
Pyukumuku

If you have any questions about how anything works just ask.
-------
I'm down with it if BK is.

I'll redraw Simisage and Slurpuff for now. Next round, I could redraw something I already have now (like Toucannon, as an example), correct?
-------
Your hand now:
Toucannon
Jirachi
Forretress
Haxorus
Throh
Servine

and yes, you can redraw any mons in this hand. So long as it doesn't exceed 2 mons. You can even just stick with what you have if you want.
-------
Let's ditch Throh then.
-------
Toucannon
Jirachi
Forretress
Haxorus
Servine
Spinda

This is your final hand. Thus at this point you would make a team using these 6, when you're ready contact bk at some point.
And here are the battles:
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7ou-630956808
http://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen7ou-630957480

With that said, still unsure if it would be wise to eliminate OU/BL mons or maybe just eliminating some of the more troublesome mons, or not eliminating them at all. The basic premise of the idea seems fairly set in stone, but there's still room to work on changing stuff around a bit, like maybe having one card be OU mons, one card be UU/BL mons, etc. Although that's probably a bad idea.

All right guys, thanks for the responses, after considering them and looking through all the mons in general, I allowed four mons back in.

Magnezone
Staraptor
Pelipper
Conkeldurr

Dugtrio is currently in limbo. Showdown just finished doing suspect tests for the ability arena trap, so if it's banned, I'll be adding Dugtrio back in, otherwise is will remain out.

If there are any objections to any of these or mons you think should still be added, feel free to reply to this. Otherwise that's how it'll be.

On a side note.

Arena Trap
Ban: 100
Do Not Ban: 10
Ban % = 72.4%

60% pro-ban majority is required for a ban, and the outcome will not be changed by more votes. Thus, Arena Trap is now banned from OU.

In a tie for third place with 4 wins a piece, bbbrrr, Minna and Monkey.
In a tie for first place with 6 wins a piece, Ignoritus and Zephy.

Congratulations and thank you all for playing. After seven rounds we have what would be a "winner" but given that we have two tied at 6-1. we could do one last battle to decide the overall winner, and even test out the new pokermon format for next time if you two would like.

I will do my best to make signature bars at some point.

So I figured I best go over the pokermon idea one last time just to ask if there are any suggestions for once I start the signup. As it stands, I deal each person 6 pokemon from PU to UU, plus the five mons that were all right to remain from BL to OU. These hands are revealed to everyone. Afterwards every participant has two chances to "redraw" mons, up to 4 in the first redraw and 2 in the second. Once the second redraw has happened, whatever team of 6 you have is what you use for that round. The number redrawn per round and the final hand are not revealed to the other participants.

There are also joker cards. Getting one of those leaves you with a choice, either keep it and pick from any mon in a special list (of NFEs and LC mons) or redraw it immediately that round. The card counts as a free redraw and does not count towards the 4 or 2 respectively, and can be swapped if you by chance draw it after the second redraw.

Battles will take place in the OU format. As it stands, this is how it will work.

I am also considering requiring all redraws to be through discord to overall make my life easier.
