It's pretty simple, this will be an ongoing round robin tour which players can feel free to join/leave at any time. Each week I will give all active participants a new matchup, and they will complete three battles against their opponent.
Players are encouraged to discuss the metagame in this thread. In this thread, discuss whether we ought to ban Stealth Rock or keep it - is it sufficiently broken, and does removing it increase diversity enough, that we feel it ought to be banned?
Note that Latias is banned for this tournament, but may be suspected after this suspect has completed.
