Introduction
The forgotten classic finally gets the spotlight.
Stadium OU World Championship will determine our first champion Stadium player. Like previous Gen 1 World Championship tournaments, Rounds will be best of 3 until 16, 20, or 25 are left. Then they'll be two double round-robin group stages, usually going down to 8 and then 4. The semi-finals and finals will be best of 5.
Past Gen 1 New Horizons Tournaments:
- RBY OU World Championship
- RBY Ubers World Championship
- Hypno Cup III (RBY OU Tradebacks)
- RBY OU World Championship 2016
- RBY Mewbers World Championship
- RBY Ubers World Championship 2016 (July 2016). Gen 1 tournaments are marked in red here.
- Banned Moves: Double Team, Fissure, Guillotine, Horn Drill, Minimize (Evasion + OHKO moves).
- Banned Pokémon: Mew, Mewtwo.
- Clauses: Freeze Clause, Sleep Clause, Species Clause, Team Preview.
- Substitute blocks all status.
- Hyper Beam always recharges, even after KOing the target.
- Sleep lasts between 1-3 turns.
- Critical hits happen less for fast Pokémon, more for slow Pokémon (relative to RBY).
- Focus Energy works.
- Team Preview is on (some clauses might be able to be removed, but we'll stick to RBY rules for now)
- Partial trapping moves (wrap etc.) stop when the target switches out.
- HP values are displayed
- No recoil damage if the target is KOed.
- The weird RBY bugs like 255, dig/fly glitch are fixed.
- Round 1 - 4 x 4 double round-robin groups (20 unseeded players)
- Round 2 - 2 x 4 double round-robin groups (2 x 1st and 2 x 2nd Round 1 seeds in each group)
- Round 3 - 2 best of 5 matches (2 x 1st vs 2nd Round 4 seeds from alternate groups)
- Finals - 1 best of 5 match (2)
- Battle ties will not be counted in any best of match, but they will now count in round-robin matches as 1/2 a point each.
- Ties between 1st and/or 2nd positions in a group will result in a single battle or single round-robin of battles repeated, until positions within the group are established.
Battle location: Challenge in the Gen 1 Stadium tier on Pokémon Showdown! (Pokémon Online if both users agree). Please report incorrect Stadium mechanics on Pokémon Showdown! here.
