Might I suggest a rudimentary list?
Any of the following one-off Pokémon are disallowed from the tournament. In short, DO NOT USE:
Articuno
Zapdos
Moltres
Mewtwo
Mew
Raikou
Entei
Suicune
Lugia
Ho-oh
Celebi
Regirock
Regice
Registeel
Latias
Latios
Kyogre
Groudon
Rayquaza
Deoxys
Jirachi
Uxie
Azelf
Mespirit
Dialga
Palkia
Heatran
Regigigas
Giratina
Cresselia
Manaphy
Darkrai
Shaymin
Arceus
Ha ha. No. Here's a... Vastly better list:
Mewtwo
Mew
Lugia
Ho-oh
Latias
Latios
Kyogre
Groudon
Rayquaza
Deoxys
Dialga
Palkia
Giratina
Darkrai
Arceus
This list is better in that no one cares about your average, run-of-the-mill legend. They don't break the game in any way, shape or form, and if you ban them all, you might as well ban every other pokemon that's in any way above average in strength, 'cause many of 'em are better than the vast majority of legends.
Also, I wouldn't hold this tournament until around a month or so. The game's been out for a week, you need to give the people who want to breed and EV train time to do their stuff. I only have one member of my final team ready right now, and it's not fully leveled, but that doesn't mean I don't want to compete.
