Pokémon Emerald Ultimate Frontier Brain Battle: Difference between revisions

The 14 finalists competed at Seattle's Space Needle. The champion won a trip for two to [[PokéPark|Pokémon Park]] in {{wp|Nagoya|Nagoya, Japan}}. The rules for this portion of the tournament were relatively simple. Anyone deemed to have used an Action Replay was instantly disqualified. All matches were held on {{game|Colosseum}}, and only Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, and Deoxys were banned from play. The battles were Single Battle Format with each trainer entering with 6 pokémon and then choosing 3 at the start of each battle.

There was no level cap and the Sleep, Freeze, Perish Song/Destiny Bond, and Same Pokémon clauses were in effect. Additionally, each round had a 30 minute time limit, with a 20 second Move Selection time limit. The strangest ruling of all was that no held items were allowed. This fiercy disrupted many contestant teams with many resorting to replace pokémon now depowered by the lack of items with uber legendaries such as Groudon and Mewtwo. Chris Darling, the winner of the tournament, use team consisting of Mewtwo, Groudon, and Rayquaza for example.
