Explanation:

Blaine is searching for a new apprentice! Prove him you're worthy by showing off your battling and trivia skills!

The trivia questions will be asked in shout chat. The player who answers a trivia question (in shout/normal chat) correctly and is first, moves on to the next round. The others battle each other for a spot in the next round. The tier is UU.

 

Round 1: 21 players: 5 trivia questions. The other 16 battle each other for the 8 spots in the next round.

Round 2: 13 players: 3 trivia questions. The other 10 battle each other for the 5 spots in the next round.

For the tournament, does it go by the pokemon banlist listed in this thread or the Official UU Tier thread?

 

The UU Tier Thread only lists UU Pokemon, Pokemon below the UU tier are also allowed in this tournament. Therefore, to define which Pokemon are allowed in a UU tournament, the "Banned Pokemon" list lists the OU Pokemon.

 

So it goes by the banlist listed in this thread.

Not that it matters, but it specifically says "Poliwag evolves three times? Yes or no" in the game, which is not generation-ambiguous unless they add a megapoliwrath.

Indeed, no matter how you look at it, whether Poliwag has the Toed evolution or not, he cannot "evolve three times". He will evolve twice whether the end result is Wrath or Toed.

 

Also, neat idea! I agree that the prize is a bit much though.
