Welcome to the Main Stage of the Retro Cup of Pokemon!

For the first round, players will be randomly assigned into five groups of four players for each generation. The top 8 teams with the most wins proceed to the playoffs. The bottom 4 teams are relegated and will have to qualify again next year.

If there is a tie for 8th/9th places (or more), a 3v3 tiebreaker will be played to determine which team is seeded higher and therefore advances to playoffs.
Similarly, a 3v3 relegation tiebreaker will be played if there is a tie for 16th/17th places (or more).

For all other ties, seeding will be determined by head-to-head results (all games between all teams tied for a certain record are considered; the team with the highest differential from those games is ranked highest).
Further ties are broken by Strength of Schedule (each team plays 14 teams once and 5 teams twice; the records of those 5 teams are summed up to determine overall SoS, with the harder schedules being rewarded with a higer seed.)
Further ties are broken by random draw.

Regular Tiebreakers:
Teams each select 1 tier to play.
They are then informed of their opponents' selection, and must reorder the remaining 6 tiers in order of preference.
We will strike out the least preferred tiers from both teams' lists until there are either 1 or 2 tiers remaining. In the former case it will be played as the 3rd tier for the tb, in the latter case we will random.org the 3rd tier between the two options.
(If the first tier picked by both teams is the exact same, then that tier will be played, with the other two being simply #2 on both team's lists.)

Advantaged Tiebreaker:
We wish to reward better Round 1 records throughout the entirety of playoffs; whenever a team is tiebreaking against a team with a worse R1 record (this can only happen in playoffs), the Advantaged Tiebreaker format will be used instead.
The advantaged team selects the first tier.
Then, the disadvantaged team selects the second tier, and bans a tier from the 3rd option.
Then, the advantaged team picks between the remaining options.

​
Rules:
  • General tournament rules and regulations can be found here.
  • If metagame changes occur during the middle of a round, they will take effect in the subsequent round.
  • Battles must take place on either Smogtours or Pokemon Showdown!
  • Replays are required. Any win post without replays will not be counted

  • On Substitution:
    • If you are unable to schedule with your opponent, please let your managers know ASAP so they can communicate that to us or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.
    • When making a substitution, please inform the host team, the managers of the opposing team, and all of the players affected by the substitution to ensure that everyone is made aware.
    • The new partial substitution rule is in use (allowing players to be subbed out for a specific game without having to be subbed out for all of their remaining ones as well.)
    • Keep in mind that once a player is subbed out, they cannot be subbed back into the same round, but can be put back onto the roster for the next round.
    • Substitutions will not be allowed in tiebreak series unless both teams agree (or TDs enforce double sub). We will be reluctant to give activity wins to those who are clearly fishing for them.

ORAS Biased Predict

ORAS OU #1:
Calmmind75 / Hyssou / Ruffles / awyp
I can't doubt ruffles in this pool, about hyss and awyp are similar but in last year oraspl he is a good mates and it is biased predict so i prefer him, awyp also soild, i'm sad put cm75 strike but he looks lack more experience, if he can play more he will be a good player.

ORAS OU #2:
White Atoq / Sna / lonk / thajester
If atoq not overcook he will did soild anyway, jester i've heard his name from ruffles and he also have some good individual result, sna and lonk also have enough experience, i more familier with sna and this guy really active.

ORAS OU #4:
Hisoka / ImperialH / Magician / Superhuy
This year IMP is great, did decent result in WCOP and i looking forward his future tournament, hsk is soild but not good like imp, magician also have more result than superhuy.

ORAS OU #5:
lighthouses / Rigas / Destro16 / Always!
diogo sometimes overcook but overall he is a good player, always too, destro have more soild pick but more easy prep, but we can't deny both of these 3 are top level oras ou player, idk rigas and i feel he is hard competitive for these 3 high level player, hope he can be blackhorse cuz anything is possible.

And go team China!
