Approved by me
Thanks Quentin for this amazing pictureRules
1. Each round will be placed at a different part of the game Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire Version. There will be restrictions in level, Pokemon availability, TM availability and item availability. These will be dependent on where you are in the game. As the rounds go on, more things will obviously open up.
This is the example format for rounds.
2. You are not required to send teams to me for approval, but if you have questions on whether your team is legal, feel free to ask me.
3. Only one Starter Pokemon may be used on any team.
4. When signin for the tournament, you must specify which version of the game you will use (Alpha Sapphire or Omega Ruby).
5. Species Clause, Sleep Clause, Evasion Clause, OHKO Clause, and Self KO clause are in effect
6. OU banlist is in effect, at the exception of Blaziken. Speed Boost will be unreleased and Blazikenite banned. Event Pokemons are banned as well (Steven's Beldum, Eon Ticket Lati, Serperior, Tyrantrum, etc)
7. There is no rule against scouting, however if you are in the tournament and you spectate a match that a participant asks you to leave in you may be disqualified.
8. To avoid an exessively unbalanced metagame, Pokemon evolving by evolutionary stones from the Super Training will be banned during the first round of the tournament.
9. About NaviDex: It allows almost any Pokemon with the Hidden Ability, except when I specify "no HA" next to the Pokemon's name.
10. Eggs move are banned from the Tournament (even if they are available with NaviDex)
11. Every level limit applies to the level of the Pokemon in the teambuilder, but also on the list of level-up moves available.

How to know if your Pokemon is legit or not (please read at least once)
While it's easy to understand which Pokémon and which items are available, it's not always easy to know if the set you plan to use is legal. There are six methods to learn a move, and I'll explain in detail every case.
1/ By TM or HM. Pretty easy, just look into the list to see if the TM is available. For those who didn't play on cartdridge for a long time, you should know that we can reuse the same TM forever and ever since gen 5.
2/ By move tutor. Most of them are banned because they are available post-game only. The move tutors listed here are allowed as soon as the city is reached.
3/ By egg move. They are banned. Even if you could in theory find them with NaviDex, they are banned for the tournament.
4/ By events. They are also banned, at the exception of in-game events like Pikachu Rockstar and such.
5/ By Level-Up. Any Pokemon can learn any move listed in his learnset up to his current level.
6/ By a prior evolution. Breloom can learn spore only as a Shroomish (level 40). If the level 40 is available, spore Breloom is allowed. Little twist: if a basic Pokemon learns a move at the level of the round (for example, Wurmple learns Bug Bite at level 15), it won't be able to evolve twice. Dustox and Beautifly are allowed in round 1, but since Wurmple would learn Bug Bite then only evolve once, Dustox and Beautifly can't use it.
Don't hesitate to PM me your team if you are not sure (unless I am your opponent, but I am pretty sure you can find someone to check if needed). As far as I know, Bulbapedia and Serebii are up to date with the levels.
