What is Type Optimisation?
Pokemon are retyped to explore niches and the full potential of each type combination, with upgraded stats and movepools geared towards the OU environment.

Rules
- Sign-ups: Post with 'In' if you want to join!
- Scheduling: Once matchups are announced, contact your opponent asap. Mention timezone, your availability and your name (and if it is different in the server). Try to give a few options for your opponent to work with.
- Matches: Best of 3 elimination. Replays are required to be posted/uploaded.
- Identity/Ghosting: Battle as yourself. Battling as someone you are not or ghosting is prohibited.
- Timer Clause: Be aware of people's time. Don't prolong battles, if you run out of time because of Battle Timer then you lose.
- Disconnections: In the case of a disconnect, the decision is in the hands of the player who did not disconnect. The options are: redo the battle move for move, redo the battle with the same teams but different moves, or redo the battle with completely different teams. Any suspicion that a disconnect was committed on purpose to redo a match may be appealed to the tournament host. If the battle was almost certainly over, the player may take the win. In this scenario, the final decision remains with the tournament host if the two players cannot work it out.
