    Welcome everyone to this year's Oktoberfest Showdown event: Double Trouble! We haven't done a Doubles event in ages so I feel like we are long overdue.

    Rules for this event:
    - Sign ups will be occurring until October 9th.
    - Depending on the amount of people we get the format will change between Round Robin and double elimination.
    - The match ups will be pretty quick, a few days at a time so make sure that if you sign up you will be active through out the month to not hold things back for the others.
    - Format will be VGC rules for doubles with a twist! There will be a restricted list as well as a ban list. Teams will be limited to only having one Pokémon from the restricted list among their 6 members. This should encourage some variety in the teams and prevent the format from getting stale, hopefully.
    - You may change your teams at any point during the event. Same with movesets.
    - There have been some stat edits to Pokémon to have them be available to pick for this competition:​

    1) Tyranitar: Attack being lowered from 134 to 114
    2) Porygon-Z's: Sp. Atk being lowered from 135 to 115
    - There is one move that will be disallowed for the format: Ally Switch
    - This event will be played on LV's Showdown server! Check it out here: http://lake-valor.herokuapp.com-80.psim.us/
    - If you have any questions please let us know!

    @SAF the Nekomancer
    Duo has to be present in the server for it to be up. For Team building I would suggest building on the normal showdown server and importing if this happens. Sadly we didnt get much for replies on this so I am not sure it will be happening.

    @RWBY Realm
    Sadly I dont think so, didnt have most of our usual battlers joining so we just didnt have enough members for a proper tournament

    If there is enough interest after the fact I may make this into a non Oktoberfest thing. I havent battled doubles in ages tbh and was kinda looking forward to it lol.
