The Type Reduction Tournament
Introduction
Hello everyone, welcome to the "Type Reduction" tournament! Try testing your BW OU battling skills with only using a limited amount of types!
Throughout the tournament, certain types of Pokémon will be banned. Each round bans a specific type of Pokémon. Any Pokémon type that was banned from a previous round also remains banned! So as the tournament progresses, teams will constantly change to suit the new environment. An example can be found in the general rules section in the thread.
Tournament Rules
- Each round, a Pokémon type is banned. The amount of banned Pokémon types increase each round. Example:
- Round 1: There are no banned Pokémon types.
- Round 2: Ice-type Pokémon are banned.
- Round 3: Ice-type and Psychic-type Pokémon are banned.
- This is a Single Elimination tournament.
- Logs are not required to confirm your victory, but it would be nice.
- Because teams are constantly changing throughout the tournament, there's no such thing as scouting.
- Standard OU
- Generation V
- Yes, the Standard OU banlist is in effect if it weren't obvious already.
- Evasion Clause
- OHKO Clause
- Sleep Clause
- Species Clause
- Timed Battle
- Wifi Clause
- General Smogon Rules

The Water-type is banned for R2~
Good luck everyone!
