If the time allotted for your pick elapses without you having made it, I will make the pick for you based off of your preference list. If Magikarp is unavailable at the pick, I'll select Jigglypuff; if both are unavailable, I'll select the third Pokemon on your list, and so on. Please note that this is NOT a substitute for actually making your pick - I still expect you to make every pick you are able, to ensure that this progresses as quickly as possible.1: Magikarp
2: Jigglypuff
They're only two that I really want, if they go before my picks I've no idea what I'll doI will be a sad, sad man if the Pokemon I want get taken.
The second; I drew them all at the same time with the help of a website and then presented them backwards for the suspense.Wait so I get the 2nd pick overall or the 14th?

You'll need to nominate it when you make the selection. If you select Mega Blastoise, for example, nobody else can use normal Blastoise either, though. It's just to make sure we don't have people selecting five Pokemon that have Mega Evolutions and then switching around which evo they use in each battle.Yeah I noticed that after your main post.
I saw the first 12 picks and thought I was getting screwed, then I realised this works in my favour.
Question time.
When picking Pokemon with mega capabilities do we have to nominate them as as our mega when making the pick or can we nominate it after the draft when we see the balance of our teams?

My bad, misunderstood. I'm happy for you to wait until the end of the draft, as long as I get it before matches start.I understand that we only use one mega throughout the tournament.
But do we nominate it as we pick or can I wait until the end of the draft to finalise my solitary mega?
I don't want to lock in Mega Lucario for instance as I could pick Mega Pinsir up later on or something?
It's up to you guys, happy to make another thread but just as happy to keep it in here.Also do we get a separate draft thread? Or are we keeping it in here.
I'm terrible with building teams ... so this should be fun.
Spoiler alert: I don't use tactics. I brute force everything. So ... I'll remain the worst player every in this tournament and every one after.Funnily enough, I have been too. My teams so far have been a bunch of individually excellent Pokemon. I'm not a great tactician, so I've come undone against opponents who have been able to make the right moves in a given situation, whereas I have just tried to use six individual strategies for each Pokemon, and normally at least one has worked (hence my high amount of Pokemon lost for games won).
This time I'm going to try and go for the Ross Lyon "you know what I'm doing but you can't stop it" way. We will see how it goes. I'm not confident of winning.

I should have entered just to take your favourite pokemonI will be a sad, sad man if the Pokemon I want get taken.
