Tournament rules
- This tournament will follow a hybrid format. Each player will participate in four rounds of Swiss. After the conclusion of the Swiss rounds, all players with a 2-2 record or better will move on to a single elimination bracket.
- All rounds will be best of 3 with all three of SS, SM, and XY DOU, with the starting tier being either agreed on by both players or picked randomly at the start of each week if one cannot be agreed upon, and the loser of the previous game picking the next tier.
- Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown, on either the main server or the Smogtours server.
- To encourage metagame development, prevent disputed results, and ensure an even playing field, replays are required for all matches.
- Activity calls will be made by one or both of the tournament hosts, potentially with neutral assistance from a Doubles OU Forum Moderator. Coin flips will be done publicly on PS.
- In the event that something is added to or removed from any of the three metagames in the middle of a round, that change will be in effect starting the next round.
- Do not cheat. Cheating will result in a disqualification. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary. Cheating includes, but is not limited to:
- Signing up with more than one account
- Ghosting or being ghosted by another player (e.g. while playing a set, asking for advice about what team to bring or what plays to make)
- Manipulating match outcomes (e.g. throwing a match in exchange for Smogon likes)
- Do not harass or insult your opponents. We reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary.
