{{bp|The Pokémon Company}} has announced on their website that they will be hosting a {{bp|Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection|Wi-Fi}} tournament through the {{bp|Global Battle Union}}. Unlike previous {{bp|Generation V}} Global Battle Union tournaments, players are not restricted to Pokémon in the {{bp|List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number|Unova Pokédex}}. | |||
The tournament, called the 「ポケモングローバルリンクファミ通カップ」 ''Pokémon Global Link Famitsu Cup'', will be held from Dec. 7 to 11, with registration from Dec. 1 to 6. At this stage only the first 30,000 entrants will be allowed to enter, and the tournament is restricted to those with Japanese versions of {{game|Pokémon Black and White|s}} and Japanese Pokémon Global Link accounts. In order to join the tournament, players must sign up through the Global Battle Union, a part of the Pokémon Global Link. | |||
All Pokémon in the {{bp|National Pokédex}} can be used apart from {{p|Mewtwo}}, {{p|Mew}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Deoxys}}, {{p|Jirachi}}, {{p|Celebi}}, {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Rayquaza}}, {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, {{p|Giratina}}, {{p|Phione}}, {{p|Manaphy}}, {{p|Darkrai}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Victini}}, {{p|Reshiram}}, {{p|Zekrom}}, {{p|Kyurem}}, {{p|Keldeo}}, {{p|Meloetta}}, and {{p|Genesect}}. | |||
Players will be allowed six Pokémon in their {{bp|Battle Box}} and select three to use for each battle. All battles will be single battles, conducted as a level 50 {{bp|Flat Battle}}, meaning that all Pokémon over level 50 are reduced to level 50 temporarily, but Pokémon under level 50 do not increase in level. | |||
In other news, the {{p|Zoroark}} {{bp|List of Pokémon Global Link promotions#C-Gear skins|C-Gear skin}} previously available to North American players will now be available to Japanese players on the {{bp|Pokémon Global Link}} next year. The code to obtain the skin will be provided by {{wp|Famitsu}}, who is also the sponsor of the tournament. The magazine issue with the code is set to be released Jan. 6, 2012. | |||
