[Game On] 1st ever Pokemon Battle Revolution Tournament!

Man, ever get tired of playing such a great game like pokemon on a little screen during tournaments? So was I, until I figured out a way to make a great tournament with a not so great game! And apparently it's so lame theres not enough people to do a tournament with it. Bust out those handhelds everyone for I present to you...
(Insert crazy ass bracket here)[/CENTER]
RULES
It's a pretty simple process, 32 trainers enter the tournament, 1 claims victory and days upon days victory trash taking. During rounds, each trainer will use only three pokemon, Just like in the TV series!, but as the rounds progress trainers will realize how harder each round will get. Because there will be certain "types" of pokemon you will need to use and recognize yourself with for the upcoming battle. In case you haven't noticed, I am making it like the TV show as much as possible. Battles will be Level 50 capped of course as well as tainers cannot use legendaries in this tournament. So get prepared to battle like they do sorta, but not. Now if only pokemon can dodge when you tell them too.....
SPECIAL RULES
Here I will explain how the special types of battles will proceed. If you have ever watched pokemon and watched Ash go to the pokemon league. You probably noticed that he had to fight in types of battle fields and use pokemon that was most helpful in that area. Here, that is not the case. After Round 1 is done and over with, all the middle rounds (Meaning not rounds 1 and the final Round) will have different types of battle fields that trainers would battle in and would have to use pokemon according to that area. For example, if I have to fight in a water type area, all three of my pokemon need to be water type.
SIGN-UPS
If you are interested in this and want to take part in this tournament, then reply to this thread with your name and your DS Pokemon friend code as well as a day that can work best with you. Grated this isn't going to start immediately, with new years coming up and all, but this is to at least plan for some time in the first 7 day week in January.
Well then if anyone has any questions you can post here, but for now, LETS START THIS!

Some people don't like PBR. It gives away all of your info after Friend Battles.
But I don't mind so much. I'll enter.
Hey Riokenn, your Ground Badge is totally outdated. Not expired, just out of date. You should update. Challenge the new Ground Gym Leader. (ME)
Edit: PBR code 1590-1735-3310

The current thread title is the greatest ever - I don't know what you are talking about.
Anyway - I like pokemon so naturally I'm interested in this - but I'd still like to know more about these special rounds or whatever since I don't know if I qualify for mystery requirements. Last time there was a tournament I built a team and then found out about some unstated rules. Also what's this about 8 gym badges obtained?
