Hello and welcome to the first edition of BW OU Last Chance. For those who need more circuit points to qualify for ribbon playoffs this is the tour for you. Please take some time to read the rules outlined below as this tour will work a bit differently than standard circuit tours.

SPECIFIC RULES
  • This is a standard BW OU tournament. All matches must be played in the [Gen 5] OU format.
  • This tournament will be Single Elimination, No Johns. For those unaware, "No Johns" will have much shorter round deadlines (3-4 days depending) as well as no grantable extensions.
  • Rounds will be Best of Three. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
  • Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown! (Main or SmogTours)
  • Replays will be required starting from top 16.
  • Activity calls will be made by me, potentially with neutral assistance from a Tournament Director. Coin flips will be done publicly on PS!
  • In the event that something is added to or removed from the BW OU metagame in the middle of a round, that change will be in effect starting the next round.
  • 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 (e.g. while playing a set, asking for advice about what plays to make)
    • Manipulating match outcomes (e.g. throwing a match in exchange for Smogon likes)
  • Do not harass or insult your opponents. I reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule. Additional punishments may be applied as necessary.
