A new Pokemon generation. We are poised on the edge of a brave new world. New "little" Pokemon as Rowlet, Litten and Popplio but also Wimpod, the curious Sandygast, Pikipek, all Alola little forms and so on. And new abilities, new moves and battle mechanics. And what will happen in the meantime to Mienfoo, Scraggy, Chinchou, Fletching and its Gale Wings, or a "new" Abra with Psych Up? All these points are currently the subject of in-depth examination and analysis. And there is no better way to play a tour around that.
Tournament Rules:
- General tournament rules and regulations can be found here.
- Best of three, single elimination tournament.
- Ban list. Well, at the moment SuMo LC is at the moment carrying over the ORAS ban list in its entirety + Eevium Z. Therefore:
Pokemon only need to follow two rules in order to be eligible for Little Cup.
- All Pokemon need to be level 5.
- The Pokemon must be able to evolve, but be in the lowest stage of evolution. For example Pichu is legal, but Pikachu is not.
- Pokemon: Cutiefly,Drifloon,Gligar,Gothita,Meditite,Misdreavus,Murkrow,Porygon,Scyther,Sneasel,Swirlix,Tangela,Yanma, all single-staged or evolved Pokemon, and any unevolved multi-stage Pokemon that is unavailable at Level 5.
- Moves: Dragon Rage, Sonic Boom, Swagger
- Abilities: Moody
- Items: Eevium Z
- Sleep Clause. A player cannot put two or more different opposing Pokémon to sleep using attacks that induce sleep to opposing Pokémon.
- Evasion Clause. A player cannot increase their pokémon's evasion stat with a move that specifically increases evasion. Items or indirect boosts do not break this clause.
- OHKO Clause. Players cannot use moves that have a chance of instantly KO opposing Pokémon. For example, Horn Drill is an illegal move to have on a Pokémon's (like Ponyta or Rhydon) move set.
- Species Clause. You cannot use the same Pokemon twice on the same team. For example, you cannot use two Abras.
- Wifi Battle Clause. Team preview must be enabled.
- Replays are always welcome, remember that we're experiencing with a new metagame! Also, anything you need, just let me know and write (me) on Smogon.
- On Showdown SuMo LC is currently identified as [Gen 7] Pokebank LC
