Inspired by the previous NDAM Trios tour, this is a 3v3 team tournament where the teams battle across 3 past 35 Pokes metagames!! Formats were first nominated by users on the official discord server after which a final vote was held on our Smogon Thread!

The following metagames won the vote to appear in 35 Trios:

How do I sign up?
Players should sign up as teams of three (provide a team name and an optional logo) with each player being assigned a particular format OR as free agents while stating their format preferences. If you sign up as a free agent, you will be assigned on a team of other free agents. For example, I am to form a team with AReallyShiftyGuy and BIGSHOT_ranger, and the signup post (official) looks like this:
Team Name: The Shadow Government
December: @Ember Celica
February: @BIGSHOT_ranger
August: @AReallyShiftyGuy
If I signed up as a free agent, my post would look like one of these:
Free agent, can play anything
Free agent, prefer February
Please note: Free agents are not guaranteed a place in the tournament and will only be added if a valid trio can be formed.

All standard tournament rules and guidelines apply, as well as all National Dex 35 Pokes Rules. This means that ghosting is not allowed, including from teammates. If we catch you ghosting, you'll be disqualified and potentially punished. REPLAYS ARE MANDATORY. Battles should be played on the main PS! server or SmogTours using the challenge codes as mentioned below.

What if I'd like to form a trio but haven't found enough players?

If you'd like to sign up but haven't managed to pull together a trio yet, you're in luck--#looking-for-trios in the official 35 Pokes discord server has been created exactly for this purpose! You are highly encouraged to form your own trio; free agency, as stated above, is an option, but will not guarantee you a place in the tournament. If you do sign up as a free agent, please consider reaching out to other free agents to form a team before the signup deadline Monday, December 16th at noon PST to guarantee yourselves a place in the tour!
