  • Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown!
  • Replays are not required for the early rounds, but it's encourage to post them to contribute for the metagame

Standard Rules and Clauses

  • Baton Pass Clause: Baton pass is banned
  • Same Type Clause: Pokémon in a team must share a type.

  • Endless Battle Clause: Forcing endless battles is banned
  • HP Percentage Mod: HP is shown in percentages

General Tournament Rules:

  • Identity: I expect many battles to be completed under alts. This can be bad for tournament security, and thus I will make this clear: If I hear any whispers of identity theft (battling as someone you are not) or proxy battling (helping someone else battle through pm) I will not be pleased and I will take severe actions.
  • Scouting: Next, I do not want to hear anything about counterteaming, at all. Do not complain about it. I also don't want to hear about any blatant scouting. There is a difference between "[user] is known for using stall" and "let me follow [user] around all day to watch all his battles since I am his opponent". I expect a lot of the former and none of the latter. I give permission to all battlers to ask any person spectating their battle to leave if they do not want them watching. Everyone will have access to your replays from earlier rounds though.
  • Timer Clause: As for taking long between moves, if your opponent asks you to hurry up, please oblige. If you are doing a damage calc for a key turn that is one thing, but prolonging every move is suspicious and annoying. Don't do it. Furthermore, Battle Timeout is a rule for a reason. If you run out of time, you lose, simple as that. It does not matter what your opponent says. Do not battle if you think you will have to leave mid battle, and instead reschedule for a better time.
  • Disconnections: Finally, in the case of a disconnect, the decision is in the hands of the player who did not disconnect. The options are: redo the battle move for move, redo the battle with the same teams but different moves, or redo the battle with completely different teams. If the battle was without a doubt over, they may also take the win. Any suspicion that a disconnect was committed on purpose to redo a match may be appealed to me, and if I feel this happened there will be severe consequences, don't do it.

I wrote on your post 10 minutes ago, there's still time in the week, we can reschedule & play.

A person can be late from work & I did write on your wall in the 30 minutes window.

To be clear you wrote on my profile 22 minutes after the scheduled time. As for the second part it takes 1 minute to inform me beforehand you might be late instead of wasting 15 minutes of my time refreshing the page. 30 minutes is the extended window if you would inform me beforehand of being late the regular window is 15 minutes.

Nonetheless I will see if I have time but please do be on time.

Yes, I was a few minutes late, however, not always are you in a situation where you can pre-inform that you'll be late.

We can still reschedule though, we have a lot of Time before deadline.

Still calling act the time frame is 15 minutes and you missed it, simple as that this is not a team tour.

It is not about being a team tour or not, it is about you trying to fish act somehow or the other. I did say there could be a chance I'm unavailable before we scheduled.

If you are unavailable for the entire week, we could even ask for extension.

It is within your rights to claim the win, but I leave the decision upto the hosts, if this is a genuine activity win or an abuse of the rule.

Still wish you the best of luck. Thanks.
