Ohhh yeah I never explained the rules to you. You  were the one I was waiting on before setting a date... riiiiiiight...

Basically, there's a main battle bracket-style, last-trainer-standing thing. Once you lose, you're out. Each battle adds to your overall score.

The other style is gimmick battles which are more for fun rather than glory. These battles encourage you to build unique teams. These battles also add to your overall score. There will be two winners: Bracket winner, and score winner. They may end up being the same trainer, but probably not. The winners get their choice of either a regigigas or a shiny suicune. Second place of both will get a celebi as a consolation prize.

This gimmick battle, as you can see, is to build a team of a single type. Goth, if you truly can't build a team of three or more poison types, I can see about having your type changed. I'd really rather not, because there's a lot of potential there. In fact, I'd be surprised if you couldn't find enough pokemon for a good team! I mean, there's Mega Venusaur, Crobat, Mega Gengar, Drapion, Skuntank, Arbok, Weezing, Muk, Vileplume, Victreebel, the Nidos, Tentacruel, Qwilfish, Seviper, Toxicroak, Scolipede, Garbodor, Dragalge... Lots of potential combinations, the list goes on.
