'CAN YOU BEAT 'EM ALL? '

Tournament Set-up
Okay, got that out of the way. Here are two basic guidelines on how the tournament is going to be set-up;
 * This is a Round-Robin Tournament; Everyone will fight everyone one time
 * 8 entries will be accepted. This means it'll go to the best entries, not the first ones.

Creating a character
When creating a character, there are three key factors that MUST be filled in for an acceptable entry. Failing to fabricate something to the requirements is automatic disqualification;
 * Personality
 * Biograpy
 * Physical Description 

Biography
In your biography, you should be EXTREMELY descriptive. I don't want several boring backstories involving "setting out for the hell of it" backgrounds. Tell us what you are. Are you a champion wrestler who lived the limelight until he miserably failed and turned to Pokemon? Or are you a police officer, dedicated to upholding the laws to preserve the citizens and Pokemon of a region? Give me something creative, guys. Make sure to be descriptive on this, because this along with personality will be key in determining if you can be part of this.

Personality
Due to the small amount of people able to join, this tournament will be very story-driven. "2edgy4u" backgrounds will most certainly not be accepted unless portrayed well. How they interact with trainers, their Pokemon, and other such things are good guidelines to creating one.

Physical Description
While certainly not the most important aspect of creating a character, an outfit DESCRIPTION is required. If you do not give one, it WILL be assumed you fight naked. Not a good idea at all. Include some form of clothing that sets you apart from most. Afterall, you are the greatest trainers this region can offer, so make a character we can see in our heads.
