Welcome to the 1v1 Global Cup III, the first tournament of the 2025 1v1 Circuit! Everything you would need to know about the tournament will be listed below. If you have questions, feel free to contact me!

Tournament Rules:
  • General tournament rules and regulations can be found here.
  • The banlist for this tournament is the same as the SV 1v1 ladder on the main server of Pokemon Showdown, and can be found by using '/tier 1v1' on that server.
  • Each matchup will be held as a best of five.
  • If metagame changes occur during the middle of a round, they will take effect in the subsequent round.
  • Battles must take place on main server or smogtours.
  • Replays are required.
  • Do not make baseless activity posts; get in contact with your opponent and report missed times / scheduling issues only.
Because this is an unusual tournament format not everyone may be familiar with it so I've included an example 64 player rundown below. If you have any questions feel free to reach out and ask because it's better to find out now than during the actual tournament.

Round 1: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 32 Bo5 matches (64 unseeded players, subs period) & Stage 2
Round 2: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 16 Bo5 matches (32 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Round 3: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 8 Bo5 matches (16 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Round 4: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 4 Bo5 matches (8 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Semifinals: Stage 1 - 2 sets of 2 Bo5 matches (4 unseeded players) & Stage 2
Finals: Stage 1 - 2 sets of Bo5 matches (2 unseeded players) & Stage 2 (essentially a bo3o5 in finals)
-----------------------------------------
Stage 1 End: Players with 2 match wins go through, and those with 2 losses are eliminated.
Stage 2: Players with a 1-1 record play each other in an Bo5 match to see who progresses (or wins the final).
Each stage is 1 week long and each round is 2 stages equalling 2 weeks long.
Basically you just have to win 2 out of 3 potential games in order to move on to round 2.

Example
If you are given Sificon and Arai as opponents for the first round and win against one of them but lose against the other, you will go to Week 2. If you win against both of them, you will advance to the next round. If you lose both, you will be eliminated.

G4 details: my opponent was having connection issues, I had turned off the timer and waited 40 minutes and they told me they could finish the series later (which we did). I eventually turned on the timer since I had to go, opponent said they didn't mind. Sorry to win like this...
