Introduction
​
If you haven't heard, we've decided to revise Smogon's tiering system again. Everyone knows that the OU council is run by oppressive fanatics and that suspect tests are just ban-happy bandwagoning fools who don't appreciate what Landorus and Hoopa contribute to the metagame. It's time we overthrow these despots and unite as a common people. Our new system will be a democracy: everyone will have a say.

Tournament Specific Rules/Information​
  • This is a single elimination tournament, best-of-one format for all rounds except Finals, which will be best-of-three
  • All games are to be played in the OU format
  • When you sign up for the tournament, you are required to complete one of the following actions:
    • Ban two Pokemon (example: Manaphy and Breloom)
    • Ban two moves (example: Ice Beam and Swords Dance)
    • Ban one Pokemon and one move (example: Manaphy and Ice Beam)
  • The user must add their bans in their sign-up post
    • A user who does not follow this rule will not be added to the sign-up list until they fix their post
  • The Pokemon and move banned must be already usable in the OU tier when sign-ups occur
    • For example, banning Rayquaza or Swagger is not allowed
  • When a player is eliminated from the tournament, their ban will be revoked in the next round
    • Let's say User A bans Manaphy and Ice Beam (and is the only one to ban them). When User A loses, Manaphy and Ice Beam will be legal to use in the following round
  • Multiple bans may be made for the same Pokemon/move
    • For example, User A and User B both ban Manaphy. If User A loses in a round while User B continues on, Manaphy will still be banned in the next round
    • Bans enacted by multiple people will remain in effect until all people with the same ban are eliminated
  • Banning a base form automatically bans the Mega form
    • Getting rid of Slowbro gets rid of Mega Slowbro naturally, while banning Mega Aerodactyl doesn't ban regular Aerodactyl
  • Substitutes' bans will not take effect. Substitutes will adopt the bans of the players whose positions they take
  • Changing a ban after sign-ups are closed is not allowed
General Tournament Rules​

  • Species Clause: A player cannot have two of the same Pokémon on their team.
  • Evasion Clause: A player cannot use the moves Double Team or Minimize in their Pokémon's movesets.
  • OHKO Clause: Players cannot use Horn Drill, Guillotine, Sheer Cold, or Fissure in any of their Pokémon's movesets.
  • Timer Clause: If a player exhausts the timer, he/she loses.
  • Moody Clause: Players cannot use a Pokémon with the Moody ability.
  • Swagger Clause: Players cannot use the move Swagger.
  • Baton Pass Clause: Players cannot have more than one Pokémon with the move Baton Pass.
Tournament Rules and General Guidelines

The entrants determined for this tour were selected based on the traditional First Come, First Serve method. In this case, the first 40 entrants to the tournament were guaranteed a spot. The remainder were randomly chosen to fill the final 24 spots. Those who were not placed in the top 64 were put on a list of substitutes in random order.

I will determine when substitutes will be used on a case-by-case approach. If your opponent has not responded around 72 hours (3 days) after you first messaged them, please let me know.
