there out. 1569 for me. Worst number for me since these tournys have started.
WOW I just read why it took so long and MAN!!!!!! That would explain alot of things. I thought the filters wouldnt let hack pokes in. I guess not. And where is the new Gobal link at?
Are you talking about the new PGL for X & Y?
It's not up yet the current one is still running until January 14th, 2014. X & Y's PGL will open up on Oct 12th the day of the games release [Note: there might be a delay or an earlier release for the website](Really hopping there's no problems due to the fact so many people will be registering on that day, or when ever the website get's released.)

erm...I used a shiny Kyogre and got ranked.

Lol well maybe not all the shiny Kyogre's, just the one's I came up against that took less than 1/4 damage from an Electric Gem boosted Discharge from my Thundurus.

Ranked 4435, with final rating of 1510 points. I recorded down every fight that went down (only managed 7 though).

Got it memorized?
I ended up ranked somewhere in the 5500's. Hehe I'm not too disappointed since I was using a team with no legendaries and really just signed up for the XY Test Competition. I still got in a lot of fun battles and earned tons of BP, so I'd call it a successful participation.

476 of almost 2500 people. Seems pretty good if you ask me should that not include those who hacked, which I believe it does. I'd have probably been higher though if I did more battles. Also sorry for being lazy to update the first posts. I'm a busy person so I try to fit whatever I can into my small amount of time that I have. Now compared to my Winter Friendlies rankings I'mjust about right in the spot of where I should be even though I had less fights in this one. (10W:9L, 21W:15L)

I have a quick question regarding the X&Y competition. On the Pokemon website it say's 'All qualifying participants in this competition will receive an invitation for a test competition featuring Pokémon X and Pokémon Y." Were we suppose to receive some type of message saying we're eligible to participate. Or was making the rankings the only thing we needed, and that is our "invitation"?

Anyways this is a little disappointing, I saw the other day regarding people being disqualified that they'll have another chance to join the X&Y test competition. They mentioned that it didn't matter for what ever reason you were disqualified, however I guess the good part is that it'll be limited spots for them to enter.
The fact that those that used hacks and were disqualified being given a 2nd chance is just wrong in my opinion. They shouldn't be giving a 2nd chance I liked the fact they finally took action against hackers but then turn around and allow them back in. I'm just hopping this hack check with Pokemon Bank is full proof that way none of these hackers can send any of their Pokemon over to X&Y to use in the test competition.
