Welcome to the NFE BW CUP , Part of the NFE Classic​

The tournament begins with three separate cups: the ADV NFE Cup, the DPP NFE Cup, and the BW NFE Cup. Each of these cups will be best-of-three and single-elimination. Points will be awarded based on players' performances in each of these cups, following the standard Smogon points system (as seen in such tours as the Smogon Grand Slam and Classic). Once all three cups are over, the top 8 players with the most total points will advance to the playoffs. These playoffs will be single-elimination and seeded, meaning that the 1st seed will play the 8th seed, the 2nd seed will play the 7th seed, and so on. In each set, the higher seed will pick the tier for game 1. The loser will then pick the tier for the subsequent game.

just for some clearup. in ADV OU, pokemon like Charmeleon and other Not Fully Evolved pokemon are not categorised as NFE but rather PU (in Charmeleon's case). Are we allowed to use these pokemon or do they have to be categorised as NFE?

you can use any NFE mons that it tagged in higher tiers as long as they're not in the challenge code so you can use charmeleon but you can't use any of the mons posted within the challenge code so you can't use magmar, Pilo, etc.

What the OP means is that there will be three different tournaments taking place, this one (BW) and then there will be a separate sign up for DPP and ADV. Each of these three tournaments will be BO3 single elimination each round, and a different thread will be available for these tournaments.

There is also an SS and SM one which is ongoing.

There is a list of Pokémon which you can use and which ones are banned for each gen, there are also viability rankings so some Pokémon you want to use may not be recommended.

Feel free to DM me if anything is unclear to not clutter the thread.

Bienvenidos a la Copa NFE BW, parte de la NFE Classic.​

El torneo comienza con tres copas separadas: la Copa ADV NFE, la Copa DPP NFE y la Copa BW NFE. Cada una de estas copas será al mejor de tres y de eliminación directa. Se otorgarán puntos según el rendimiento de los jugadores en cada una de estas copas, siguiendo el sistema de puntos estándar de Smogon (como se ve en giras como el Smogon Grand Slam y Classic). Una vez que terminen las tres copas, los 8 mejores jugadores con el mayor total de puntos avanzarán a los playoffs. Estos playoffs serán de eliminación directa y con cabezas de serie, lo que significa que el cabeza de serie 1 jugará contra el cabeza de serie 8, el cabeza de serie 2 contra el cabeza de serie 7, y así sucesivamente. En cada set, el cabeza de serie más alto elegirá el nivel para el juego 1. El perdedor luego elegirá el nivel para el juego siguiente.
