Skipped picks can be made up on your turn up to the current round, after which you may still make your current round pick. | ||||
9 | Each Coach will have 60 points and must draft between 8-9 Pokemon. After each rounds pick, you must have points remaining equal to 9 minus the current round to prevent overdrafting. If you do not, your pick will not be counted and you must choose a cheaper pick. | ||||
