RMT of the Week
co-hosted with Team Pokepals, IronBullet and Snowy.
Want your team noticed by a lot of people? Do you want all the efforts you put into testing your team and writing up your RMT to count? This is where RMT of the Week comes in! The aim of this project is to give people who put effort into making quality RMTs the attention they deserve. There are a lot of teams out there that are well-built and presented, but often left in the dark. Not anymore!

Concept
  • Every week, we will nominate a few teams as candidates for the RMT of the Week.
  • These teams are put in a poll. Everyone can vote for the team they think is most deserving of the award.
  • At the end of the week, the winner will be the team that receives the most votes.
Prizes

So what's in it for the winners? Well, the winning team will be announced on social media. It will also be recorded in the Hall of Fame, which will be posted in the OP for each week, and people are encouraged to rate it. Winning the RMT of the Week also increases the chance of having your RMT added to the Team Showcase, subject to review, since it brings it to the notice of the staff. Finally, the winner will have an opportunity to give a brief interview.

RMT Requirements
  • Make sure your team is viable and effective: This one is self-explanatory. If your team doesn't fit into its tier or metagame, or lacks any kind of success, it won't have a high chance of being selected. It doesn't have to be archive worthy though, and it doesn't have to have peaked at #1; a moderately successful team can make it, but it has to work.
  • Your team should be well-presented: Wouldn't you enjoy posting in a thread more if it was visually appealing? If you put effort into presenting your team attractively, people will be more willing to rate it. We appreciate it when you take time to improve the quality of your RMTs, as it enhances the quality of the forum.
  • Be nice and receptive to people's opinions: No one likes to rate the team of a close-minded person!
For those whose teams are selected, don't ask anyone, be it friends or anyone else, on the forums or on PS! to vote for you. For friends of the people whose teams get selected, the same goes for you as well: please don't post the link in chat rooms to try and get people to vote.

The first time someone is caught cheating, their team will be disqualified and removed from the ongoing week. If someone is caught cheating for a second time, they will be permanently banned from the project.

We caught up with Week 4's winner bro fist to ask him a few questions about his OU RMT: Core 4

1. Can you give a brief description of your team? What do you think is the reason behind its success?

My team is standard SM OU bulky offense that uses some of the biggest threats in the tier. It's successful because this playstyle is tried and true for the most part and just provides general consistency in most scenarios. It's pretty easy to play with and gets the job done.

2. Have you received any useful feedback for your team?

Yea I have actually. One rate made me realize that there's no actual reason to not have a rock move on scarf chomp, so I made the change from fire fang to rock slide.

3. Is there any advice you'd like to give to RMT posters?

I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to posting RMTs myself, but I guess I would tell people to not be afraid of having their team looked at and criticized. The quality of your RMT/team can only improve as long as said criticism is constructive and presented in a good way.

4. What are your thoughts regarding SM OU?

Early SM OU is probably one of the most fun metagame I've played. It has a lot of room for creativity and variety and has the potential to produce some exciting matches in tournaments like SPL and OST. It's not a perfect metagame obviously, as it still needs a couple of changes, but I am excited to see its development in time.

Thanks for the responses and congrats again!
