Here's how this one is going to work. It's still going to be 128 Pokemon in the final bracket, but obviously with 1025 Pokedex entries, that's going to be a tight fit. So we're going to whittle that number down bit by bit, choosing one Pokemon out of each group of 10 to make it. The groups will be sorted in Pokedex order; this is to help keep things orderly and prevent a Pokemon from slipping through the cracks, but also to make sure that each generation is represented proportionally with how many of the little bastards were added in each set of games. For Pokemon with alternate forms under the same Pokedex entry, such as Unown, Rotom, Wormadam, or Deoxys, all of those forms will be counted as one entry for the sake of keeping the proportional representation intact (and to make sure there aren't too many of a single species on the bracket). Megas, Gigantamax, and any other alternate forms that are only seen during battle are also considered as part of the base species. Regional forms, such as Alolan Exeggutor or Galarian Weezing, are considered as being separate, and will be part of their respective generation's set. Legends: Arceus is considered as "generation 8.5" for the purposes of this tournament. That brings things to a grand total of 1080 Pokemon that qualify for bracket spots, which will break down to a nice even 108. The final twenty bracket spots are "Wild Card" positions, and each generation will have two more chances to get a representative on the bracket. The top 20 non-winners from each generation will be split into two further groups of ten, and those Pokemon will then compete for the remaining spots. I know it might seem confusing when it's all written out like this, but trust me, it will work. I hope. But, as I mentioned in the opening of this topic, these are dark times and the future is uncertain. I'm going to do my damndest to keep up on this so we all have something to look forward to, but I'm going to need everybody here to help out with that by voting. When I ran a temperature check last week the topic got up to about 50-60 votes, which I felt was fine, but since CE's numbers are only going to dwindle moving forward I will end this tournament early if I feel like the engagement isn't high enough for me to bother putting the time and effort into it anymore. So, please, vote. Anyway, with that out of the way, here's round one of the preliminaries! Here's to a (hopefully) great fourth tournament, everyone! https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/3/3d89ba39.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

So only one of these 10 will make the bracket? It's fair as long as I remember that some pokemon may just be gifted free passes based on their pokedex number and not necessarily the most popular. Definitely possible some groups could contain more than one final contender.

Bulbasaur is the starter to choose in gen 1, and with starters in particular, evolutions are just bigger, less iconic versions! (Actually, I was tempted to vote Ivysaur because the first piece of Pokemon merch I ever owned was a little Pokeball keychain with an Ivysaur figure...but I stand by what I said, Bulbasaur is THE starter.)

KainWind posted... So only one of these 10 will make the bracket?Out of this specific round, yes. But I will be keeping track of the 20 highest-scoring non-winners (by percentage, then by total votes received as a tiebreaker) for the Wild Card rounds each generation, so if a Pokemon performs well in their initial round but doesn't win, they still have a chance. It might even be worth voting strategically sometimes if a round seems like a foregone conclusion for an obvious winner, just to give your favorite a shot to qualify for Wild Card. ...

Yay, the pokeymans tournament is on! I was worried the Great CEclusion would put an end to it, and I hope it doesn't still end up doing so. Unless Alolan Meowth or Lechonk get eliminated in their first rounds, in which case I hope CE gets shut down the next day.
I picked Charmander in gen 1 and it is the strongest choice of family having both 'mander and 'zard, but since this lets us pick an individual form, Wartortle takes it for me. I like the wispy ears and tail. Ivysaur is also underrated. Also poor Caterpie, pitted against nine truly iconic pokeymans. --- Hambo's alt. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I never really understood the Wartortle appeal. Squirtle and Blastoise are both great, just never really been a fan of him. I think he's my least favorite of first 9. Hell, I'd probably pick Caterpie over him too.
Anyway, the Bulbasaur family has always been the best. All three of them. Venusaur is my pick though. --- Ah, yes, the Negotiator: General Kenobi <sneaky beeping> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Hell, I'd probably pick Caterpie over him too.I feel the opposite. Squirtle is cute, but neither of them are as good as Wartortle. The wispy bits and determined expression make it cooler than Squirtle and the wisps and body shape make it cuter than Blastoise, so it's the best of both worlds. It also just looks more cuddly since the other two forms don't really have any soft elements. --- Hambo's alt. ... Copied to Clipboard!
