The time has come for the official draft process. Please try not to post other than to make your draft selection. We are using standard OU rules, so only Ubers are not allowed, and they are listed here:
Also here are the remaining pokemon divided by tier. NFE pokemon are not listed, but you are more than welcome to select them as well. It must also be stated that once a pokemon is selected, you must select a single form of that pokemon (if it comes in multiple forms) to use on your team. For instance, should one select Landorus, he must specify which form will be used.
Finally, here is the randomized draft order:
TC_Pro
Tim Allen
Dark_Chrysalis

Also, here are the updated teams:
As a reminder, you have 24 hours from the previous pick to make a selection. Should you miss your pick, it will be moved to the end of the draft. Should you miss three picks, you will be eliminated from the tournament.

Borderline (BL)
Pokémon that are recognized as being too powerful for UU play. Yet, these Pokémon are a tad bit underwhelming when it comes to OU play. In some cases its just due to lack of field play. As of now, there are 4 Pokémon in this tier. Since they are deemed as overpowered in UU, they can only be used in OU play. Certain Abilities are banned from the Underused tier and lower tiers as well for their overwhelming presence, such as Drought and Sand Stream.

Pokémon that are generally not seen at all due to being highly limited and unpopular. Their stats and movepools may be, and usually are, very lacking compared to the higher tiers.

With the advent of the Eviolite item in Generation 5, there are many more NFE Pokémon that are viable in NU than there were in Generation IV. There are a whopping 206 Pokémon in the NU tier as of this writing.
