Can you do it? Because I honestly don't think you can do it. But I'll try it anyways, because maybe, you can do it.
I'm talking about an OU Tournament. OU, standing for OverUsed, the main tier in pkmn. You are making your own team, and playing against everyone else. Your team can include anything and you can do anything except:

Metagame bans:
OU specific bans:
Ubers:
A full list of clauses and banlists is here http://www.smogon.com/bw/banlist/

List of OU pokemon here http://www.smogon.com/bw/tiers/ou
Knowing them and knowing their strategies as are explained there will help. If you are a beginner (playing the gb/gba/ds games does not make you an expert, you are not a beginner only if you have been doing actual competitive battling) consult those very often and try to actually follow what is suggested there for your pokemon builds as well as your teams.
Remember that you don't have to use the pokemon of that list, although it is highly recomended. You are allowed to use everything but what I mentioned above, that means pkmn of lower tiers and other banlists such as UU, RU, NU, BL, BL2 etc. are available to you as well.

OU was picked because it has the least bans while not being uber, so you'll have free-er team building, although that also means teams can be too good which is a double edged swords here. FAL stands for First And Last. Solid prediction, you'll need those. But maybe you can do it. Maybe you can make your team and play with others?

I wanted to go for lower tiers but that would create the additional problem of "oh noes, I can't use gyarados/dnite/alakazam/gengar/latios/infernape, its coolest pkmn ever and so balanced!" and stuff like that, so I opted to go for OU while people are not too familiar with the tiers.

I have to agree there... Then again, UU has been messed up a bit recently. Nyeh.

When will this be played? Also, PO or Showdown?
