SPECIFIC RULES

• This is a standard National Dex Doubles tournament
• This tournament will be Double Elimination
• Rounds will be Best of Three. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
• Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown! (Main or SmogTours)
• To encourage the development of the metagame, and so that everyone is on an even playing field, replays are required for all matches.
• Activity calls will be made by me, potentially with neutral assistance from a National Dex Forum Moderator. Coin flips will be done publicly on PS!
• In the event that something is added to or removed from the National Dex Doubles metagame in the middle of a round, that change will be in effect starting the next round.
• Do not cheat. Cheating will result in a disqualification. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary. Cheating includes, but is not limited to:
  • Signing up with more than one account
  • Ghosting or being ghosted by another player (e.g. while playing a set, asking for advice about what team to bring or what plays to make)
  • Manipulating match outcomes (e.g. throwing a match in exchange for Smogon likes)
• Do not harass or insult your opponents. I reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary.

Standard Rules and Clauses

• Endless Battle Clause: Anything capable of intentionally creating an endless battle is banned.
• Evasion Abilities Clause: Evasion abilities (Sand Veil, Snow Cloak) are banned
• OHKO Clause: Players cannot use the moves Fissure, Guillotine, Horn Drill, or Sheer Cold.
