this is the run, we are invincible
[The days are here, and the Battle Park is all done up for the show. Banners with a weird shield-like symbol announce the Dome-tide tournament, and everything is organized in an orderly fashion. Everyone who signed up will be directed to their place and given a free water and name tag, and spectators will get a program detailing all the matches and locations.
The prizes are... well, something that a weird nerd would think are good prizes. First prize gets a Nugget, second a bunch of EXP candy, and third and fourth get literally just 30 Ulternian Poké Balls each. She had to be talked out of giving you textbooks.
select your team, b yourself, and have fun!]
[HOW IT WORKS
The bracket was seeded with characters who were signed up on the thread linked above for the month's plotting post! Since there were 10 teams and thus four people would have had to play an extra round, I gave those slots mainly to people who signed up multiple characters. You can find the bracket here with all the results, which were done via RNG.
The matches can be threaded out on the post in their toplevels according to the RNGed results, or can be skipped, depending on player preference. There will be a toplevel for rounds 1, 2, 3, and 4, and another for general spectating.
ICly, this runs on the 12th, but backtags until whenever are fine as always! This is a player-run event, so if you need anything, let me know!]

1/2
Mateo's Confuse Ray fizzles into nothing, and both Pokemon and trainer look around the battlefield, trying to see where Infernape will reappear from.
"Uh, when it pops up again, Quick Attack!" Gold commands.
Mateo nods and gets ready, but in the next moment the Mach Punch knocks him off his feet and into the air.
Gold gasps as he watches Mateo get flung up in the air, then land with a thud and a puff of sand. Mateo twitches, kicking up some sand, but doesn't get up again.
"Ahh... Dang it," Gold says, gritting his teeth, then exhaling a breath to calm himself. "You did good, Mateo." He recalls the Umbreon into his Pokeball.
