Tournament Specific Rules and Information:

The Top 16 players will advance to the playoffs, and we will announce the format for that when we get there. It may be the same as Superstars III playoffs, but I'm hoping to come up with an even better, fresher idea this year.

In addition, any player that leads or ties for the lead of a pool (limited to a two-way tie) will automatically have a chance to make the playoffs! Even if you seem down and out, one good pool performance can mean you're still in it!

Activity decisions will be given out if there is obvious evidence supporting them. There will be no coin flips in the event of equal activity; the match will not count as a win or a loss for either player. To avoid gaming this system, Wins and Games Played is the primary tie breaker (a final record of 11-4 will beat 10-2 based on activity, and 10-3 will also beat 10-2). In the case of the same record, Head to Head will take precedence.

I would like to encourage players to play with Specs Allowed, but I understand if they wish to play otherwise. I love watching/reading good Pokemon matches, so please save logs if you wish to share!

Brackets will be double elimination, so don't be discouraged if you lose! Matchups are best of three in ADV / DPP / BW, and the higher seed can choose the order if they want. Good luck to all!

won adv in a gg
lost dpp with some luck against me

ggs overall and sorry our bw game was so dumb
 
Lost 2-1 to Dragonuser, ggs.

ADV - one of his mons did a ton of damage, and i couldn't recover

DPP - my lead got some hax that put me in total control for the rest of the game

BW - what are the odds of missing draco meteor twice in a row

little disappointing, but gg's, good luck in the rest

Myzozoa defeated me in ADV and DPP with 100% HP left on each of his Pokemon in both battles. Good games and best of luck in the remaining rounds.
