Welcome to the second Doubles Classic! See the Doubles Classic II commencement thread for details on scoring and the playoffs that will follow the conclusion of BW, XY, and SM Cups.

Tournament-specific rules
  • This is a standard BW Doubles OU tournament. (see the BW DOU metagame thread for various resources)
  • This tournament will be single elimination.
  • 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.

HOW TO SCHEDULE

*****
We received 74 total signups for BW Cup. By Smogon tournament convention, to make an even bracket of 64 players, 10 players will be relegated to substitutes and will be subbed in should activity concerns arise early in the first round. The first 5/8 of 64 are locked in and cannot be made substitutes (64*5/8 = 40), which means the remaining 3/8 (64 * 3/8 = 24) slots will be determined via lottery from the remaining signups, with ten players relegated as substitutes. Choices were randomly generated on Pokemon Showdown:

[00:02] &DaWoblefet: .js Math.floor(Math.random() * (24 + 10)) + 40
[00:02] *BoTTT III: 42

Therefore, players Human, Far too complex, MXF, Amaranth, xXCloutGod42069, blueebee, Sagdiyev V2, Hys, SingleThunder, and Decem as the 42nd, 53rd, 57th, 62th, 60th, 66th, 41st, 50th, 49th, and 47th players to sign up, respectively, will be held as substitutes for the first round. If you did not sign up initially but also wish to play, you may have a chance to do so by posting in as sub in this thread, where priority to substitutes will be given on a first come, first served basis.

Current priority for subs:
DONE

**IMPORTANT**
To maximize the number of completed matches, in round one only, I will be checking for activity to determine substitutes on Thursday, June 3rd by 11:59 PM Eastern time (GMT-4). Please schedule publicly so I can verify if contact has been established. If you have not established scheduling by that time, or you have scheduled privately (e.g. via Discord or Smogon PM) and not mentioned it to me or on either player's wall, you risk being subbed out by a player waiting to play.

This is a reminder that on Thursday, June 3rd at 11:59 PM Eastern time (GMT-4) I will be checking for activity. You will be subbed out if contact has not been made with your opponent by that time. I have not seen any public attempt at scheduling (or notified of a private attempt) from the following players:

MADARAAAA
Arcticblast
Curly Brace
TutuKun
sonidude
I know it's a bit confusing since they posted on my wall as well as I have on theirs but we were scheduling the time on their wall (The_Bandit)
