Welcome to the SS NeverUsed Cup, the last tournament of this year’s NU Classic Cups!
The NU Preview Classic this year consists of four cups featuring generations ranging from BW to SS. Players can earn points from their placements in each cup in order to reach the playoffs, where they will then compete in a top eight bracket. More information on the new format can be found here.
Additionally, here are some more resources for anyone who needs them:
- Discussion Thread
- Sample Teams
- Viability Rankings
- Replays from SSPL III (helpful for getting a good grasp of how the metagame is played)
Tournament Rules:
- This is a standard SS NU tournament.
- Best of three, single elimination.
- Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown!
- Saving replays is mandatory for this tournament. In the event of a dispute you must be able to prove that you won your game. I would strongly encourage you to play your games on the Smogon Tournaments PS! Server since it automatically saves replays. REPLAYS ARE MANDATORY.
- Do not make baseless activity posts, get in contact with your opponent and report missed times / scheduling issues only.
- Standard clauses apply. All the usual Smogon rules regarding activity, timer, disconnection, and ghosting rules apply. General tournament rules and regulations can be found here.
