Hello everyone, and welcome to XY RU Minitour III! This one, like the one before it (thank Spirit for being a great host), will have a special rule. The top 17 (15 excluding Yanmega and Zoroark) of July's 1760 RU usage stats will be illegal for this minitour! This will create an entirely new metagame devoid of the most common, over-centralizing, and broken (lol jk we still have druddigon) threats, leaving it wide open for discoveries of new, great Pokemon!
To save you a little time looking up usage stats, a list of illegal Pokemon is provided below:
1) Doublade
2) Yanmega
3) Gligar
4) Rhyperior
5) Slowking
6) Hitmonlee
7) Meloetta
8) Zoroark
9) Drapion
10) Amoonguss
11) Cobalion
12) Alomomola
13) Delphox
14) Sharpedo
15) Moltres
16) Exploud
17) Aromatisse


General Minitour rules:
- This is a best of three tournament; the person that wins 2 matches moves on.

- This is standard RU, besides the small change above.

- Matches are to be played on PS! unless both players agree to otherwise play somewhere else.

- You do not have to use the same team each match.

- Signups will end on Thursday, August 28th; Round 1 will go up the next day, and it, like all subsequent rounds, will last 7 day, with a possible 3 day extension being granted as deemed necessary by myself. Whew.

-This tournament will consist of 32, 48, or 64 participants, it just really depends on how much we get. Any leftovers in between those numbers will be added as subs.

Mean things:

- Don't scout and counter team, it's just mean-spirited. Any player worth their salt will have another team, making this worthless; however, if it does work for the scouter, they get an unfair advantage.

- Don't ghost, that's really dumb lol

- If there's blatant evidence of the above, you will not be allowed to advance.

Timer stuff:
- Timer should be turned on at the start at of the match.

- If you timeout, you lose the match. There's nothing else to it. This is for the sake of keeping the tournament as simple as possible.

Disconnections:

- Unless you disconnect within the first few (>5-10) turns and don't come back before the timer runs out, you will lose. Exceptions can always be made if you had the match 100% won or some other special case. Again, this is just to keep the tournament going smoothly.

Battle Clauses:
- Evasion Clause
- OHKO Clause
- Sleep Clause
- Species Clause
- Timed Battle
- Team Preview

Prize:

The winner of this tournament can receive either halfops in #rarelyused or Driver (%) in the RU room on PS! If you already have both of those, too bad.

UPDATE:
I'll now be using the 1760 RU stats (which are less terrible) and top 17, as Yanmega and Zoroark will be banned.


I apologize for the inconvenience.
