Welcome to the first XY UU tournament offered on Smogon! While this is still a new tier, the metagame is fairly balanced (at least more balanced than when Landorus was in the metagame...). To celebrate our tier going official, we are hosting a mini-tour of sorts. We're not exactly sure on the number of participants, but feel free to signup either way. Make sure to keep tabs in our IRC channel (#xyuu), as that is where most of the participants are likely to be at. I will also have a visual bracket in the topic of the channel.
Before participating in this tournament, please take some time to read the following thread: Tournament Rules, Guidelines, and General Information

About Activity Decisions
Activity Decisions / Coin Flips: We are changing the rules for activity / coin flip decisions for this tournament. In the event that there is an uncompleted match at the deadline, it will be coin flipped unless one or both of the players involved in the match specifically request an activity win and explain sufficiently why they deserve to win over their opponent. Attempting to schedule a battle is required in order to receive the win by activity. To make it clear that you are requesting an activity win when you post, you must open your post with "Activity Win Request" in bold.
If a ban occurs during Round 1, it won't affect the tournament until its next round.

Remember to save your replays!
Bracket
The tournament was made with a bracket maker, as it makes my life a lot easier. Plus, it's more visually appealing. Seeds were randomized, and not indicative of skill. Good luck!
