Hello everyone, and welcome to the first ever ORAS OU Invitational! This time I will be your host. The purpose of all of this is to essentially gather some of the best ORAS OU players of the past and modern ORAS to duke it out and show all of us their amazing skill and why they are rennounced as the greatest. Of course this isnt happening just to take each player precious time, as a matter of appreciation and a natural incentive this event will have a prize pool of $375!


For starters, we will have our play-ins phase! 16 players has been selected to duke it out for a chance to get into the main event 32 men bracket with 2 spots on the line. Here we have some excellent ORAS OU players all around and it is a shame that not all of them will be able to get in, but thats not the rule of the game! I am very confident all this players will do their best to get in the main bracket. Best of luck to everyone, and I DO ENCOURAGE wild stuff, we all are looking forward to the spectacle


Our tournament rules!
- This is a standard ORAS OU tournament.
- This tournament will be Double Elimination. 32 players, 10 Rounds. Both the Main Event and Play-ins are invite-only.
- All matches are ORAS OU bo3 until Round 8 (top 4), at which point all subsequent matches are bo5.
- Replays are mandatory for all games at every stage of both tournaments.
- Extensions are only given in exceptional cases and need to be applied beforehand. The hosts may refuse any extension request.
- All games must be played on the Smogon Tournaments Pokemon Showdown! server (smogtours.psim.us).
- Play-ins will be a Best of Three Single Elimination 16-person bracket where the top two participants will qualify for the main event.
- Do not cheat. The hosts reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule.
- Do not harass or insult your opponents, spectators, or staff. The hosts reserve the right to disqualify anyone breaking this rule.
