Randbats Spotlight Tournament
Welcome to the twenty-third bimonthly Spotlight Tour! This iteration will feature the recently elected Gen 9 for 9 Random Battle format. This tournament is your chance to showcase your skills in the Gen 9 for 9 Random Battle in a single elimination best-of-3 series (Quarter finals onwards will be best-of-5).
What is Gen 9 for 9 Random Battle?
Gen 9 for 9 is just like your normal random battles, but instead of your usual 6 Pokémon, you now start with 9 Pokémon... 1 from each generation!
Prizes
The winner of the Spotlight Tournament will receive the Room Prize Winner rank in the Random Battles room for a month and the possibility to pick a format for the next Randbats Spotlight poll!
How does the tour work?
It’s simple:
1. Contact your opponent on their Smogon wall and decide on a time to battle.
2. Battle each other in the format “[Gen 9] 9 for 9 Random Battle”. This format can be found under 'Ladder Spotlight', at the top of the second column. Alternatively, use /challenge [gen 9] 9 for 9 random battle.
3. The first player to 2 games wins advances to the next round (3 games for Quarterfinals onward)
Note that this tournament will end before the next Randbats Spotlight Ladder commences, i.e., before January 2027. This will determine the pace of the tournament.
Please note:
1. All scheduling attempts MUST be done publicly on Smogon Walls. No other proof of communication will count for act calls regarding scheduling attempts.
2. You MUST post replays of your wins.
We strongly recommend familiarizing yourself with the Smogon Tournament Rules and General Guidelines, if you haven’t already. If you have further questions, don’t hesitate to contact the tour hosts, Nlsn and 35Q71N here on Smogon.
How do I sign up?
Just post “in”!
Disclaimer: it's possible that if the current signups slightly exceed the number required to have a perfect bracket and we are not far from the deadline, the players in excess will become subs. We strongly advise to post your signup quickly if you are interested to play in this tournament.
When is the deadline?
The deadline is set on Sunday 8th November at 11:59 GMT +0 (UK time) :Lanturn:
