~ Both players should save the log but the winner of the battle should send it to me via PM. As I have said, this is to ensure that people use legitimate Pokemon as well as for collecting usages. For this reason, I'd ask the winner to write down their 6 pokemon as they may not reveal all of them in battle.
Congratulations to ReyScarface for winning the tournament!
