    cK's March Madness of Pokemon!



    Let's have some fun this March! There may not be a bunch of NCAA basketball fans on cK; however, I know there are a lot of Pokemon fans! So let's see which Pokemon is the ultimate champion with a little March Madness of Pokemon!
    I am hoping this can be a yearly event each March with a different theme! This year's theme being Pokemon!

    OVERALL EVENT

    Here is a little overview on how the event will work. On Challonge we have created a playoff bracket matching Pokemon against each other. The first round is going to be quite the battle! Each participant will create their own prediction on how the matches will play out through each round of the event and predict who will ultimately win the event. These predictions need to be completed before voting starts in March. Once March roles around participants can log into Challonge and then place votes on who they think/or want to win each matchup. Voting periods for each round are about 5 days to allow everyone to be able to get their votes in. The Pokemon with the most votes will win the match and advance in the event. This process will continue until a final Pokemon champion is decided. That that point the cK participant whose predictions most closely match the true outcome of the event wins!

    SIGN-UPS

    This event is open to any cK member! If you want to sign up please post so here so I can keep a running list of who is all participating. Once you have done so you can then head to Challonge to start your predictions!

    I would like to give out a huge shout out to my honourable co-host @(you need an account to see links) and his amazing Pokemon knowledge! Thanks for reviewing and tweaking the Pokemon bracket match-ups to create the ultimate head to head Pokemon match-ups!

    PREDICTIVE BRACKET

    To create your predictive bracket please log into Challonge and head to the bracket.



    When submitting your predicitions; under Prediction Title please use your cK username as part of it so I know who you are. (eg. Great White North's Bracket)

    You have until February 28th to submit your predictions. Once March beings predictive brackets will no longer be accepted and the tournament will begin!

    VOTING

    *ONLY PARTICIPANTS WHO HAVE SUBMITTED BRACKETS SHOULD BE VOTING*

    On March 1st the first rounds of voting will being. Make sure to vote on what Pokemon would win the head to head match up. Once the first round of voting is complete and the winners are declared the next round of voting will begin. This process will repeat until the end of the tournament!

    Round Voting Deadlines


    ROUND 1 - March 5
    ROUND 2 - March 10
    ROUND 3 - March 15
    ROUND 4 - March 20
    SEMIFINALS - March 25
    FINALS - March 30


    DECLARING A WINNER

    The winner of the March Madness of Pokemon will be the participant whose predictive bracket produces the most points and is the most accurate to the outcomes of the voting results. Each round will have a allocated score for each correct prediction. As the tournament progresses the value of each correct prediction increases. (eg. Round 1 correct prediction = 10 points, Round 2 correct prediction = 20). This is all calculated by the Challonge program.


    PRIZES


    The Winner of the March Madness of Pokemon will receive $30 USD as well as 1 Month of cK VIP


    Prizes are continually being worked on and updated. If you would like to contribute to the prize pool I am more than open to that as well!

    I’m excited to make some predictions. I did my best to pair Pok�mon for some intense first rounds.

    I’m interested to see if what I think will happen happens.

    Is Mew winning too far-fetched?
    Picking based on cuteness is hard :c

    Got mine in! Thank you both so much for hosting this, what a great idea! ^^
    Really hope this becomes an annual event!

    For anyone newer to Pokemon or need some extra help:
    I used this (you need an account to see links) when I was unsure of a Pokemon type strengths/weaknesses.

    Next, if you want to see a specific Pokemon stats (you need an account to see links) is a good place for it! Granted this is getting a bit deeper into it, so its nice for if you want to go all out and get into the typing and stats.

    Good luck everyone! ^^
