Standings
Welcome to the third ZU Triathlon, a tournament that celebrates ZU's modern history. Players will compete in separate tournaments for the ORAS, SM, and SS generations, culminating in a finals where players will have to put their ZU Old Gens knowledge to the test to have a chance to win this trophy
in the ZU Hall Of Fame.
The format consists of three separate tournaments: the ORAS CUP, SM Cup, and the SS Cup. Each tournament is single elimination, best of three. Depending on your performance in a Cup, you will be awarded points. The point system is the same as the one used in Smogon Classic. When all the Cups have been finished, the 12 players with the most points will advance to the playoffs with the top 4 seeds getting a bye round 1. This year's format will be a best-of-3. Higher seed choses the first tier and then the loser of each battle choses the next one.
Signups for each Cup will be posted as shown below here in the unofficial circuit subforum. The hosts are allowed to play in the tournament that they are administering, as long as they get outside assistance for activity calls when they are involved. Here is the list of the Cups with the names of the hosts and the dates each will be posted:

If there are any questions, post in this thread and I will answer them as well as I can. Do not use this thread as a venue to complain about the format. Also keep in mind that this thread is not the place to sign up for the ZU Triathlon. Players wanting to participate in the ZU Triathlon must sign up for each individual Cup posted over the next three weeks. Have fun and good luck to everyone competing!
