DPP OU Last Chance
Hosted by latias999999999

This is a Type C tournament in the 2026 DPP OU Circuit, and your last chance to earn points to qualify for the circuit playoffs! Please be prepared to play two matches a week, since deadlines will be shorter.

Tournament Rules

General tournament rules and regulations are in effect and can be found here.
This is a standard DPP OU Tournament. All matches must be played in "[Gen 4] OU".
This tournament will be a Single Elimination, No Johns. For those unaware, "No Johns" means you will have much shorter round deadlines (usually 3 to 4 days) as well as no grantable extensions.
Each set played will be a Bo3. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
Replays will not be required until Top 16, but it is mandatory to save them regardless in case of disputes.
Matches are to be played on smogtours, unless both parties agree to play on Pokemon Showdown! main server.
Do not make baseless activity posts -- get in contact with your opponent and report missed times / scheduling issues only. Activity calls will be made by me, potentially with neutral assistance from a RoA Forum Moderator or Tournament Director. Coinflips will be done publicly on PS!
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
- Manipulating match outcomes
Do not harass or insult your opponents. I reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary.

In the event that there is an uncompleted match at the deadline, it will be coin flipped unless one or both of the players involved in the match specifically request an activity win and explain sufficiently why they deserve to win over their opponent, or if the host determines an activity win is in order based on public contact. For this reason, all scheduling should be done on Smogon walls. Attempting to schedule a battle is required in order to receive the win by activity. To make it clear that you are requesting an activity win when you post, open your post with "Activity Win Request" in bold.

For example, if you believe your opponent is making an unfair request and that they don't deserve the activity win over you, you can either make your own request or quote their post and explain why they don't deserve it. You should try to make your activity win request posts at least 24 hours before the deadline to give your opponent a reasonable opportunity to contest it with their own activity win request.

Host discretion will be applied for all unplayed games. This means that an activity win will not be automatically granted if you post, and a lack of post does not automatically result in a coin flip.
