7. Unplayed rounds count as a loss. More rules on this forthcoming
8. NO SIMULATORS! Let's do this all through the Switch Cart.
9. No moveset or item changes allowed when the tourney starts, you can resubmit your team as many times as you like but once the tourney officially starts, your team, it is locked and you cannot change moves, EVs or items.

This is super cool but I don't think i'd do too well so I'll pass... If this went well, could there be a sort of /vp/ pokemon gym challenge? 8 people as gym leaders, then a knockout tournament or something for people who get all 8 by a deadline? Seems like a logistical pain but would be super cool!

So how does this work with matchups? Like if I make an electric team can I be matched against ground?
Anonymous
>>44042091 Round 1 and 2 have matchups where both types hit each other with neutral damage (like Electric vs. Psychic) unless it's not possible, so you're matched with not very effective interactions like Electric vs. Grass. All the following rounds try to avoid super effective interactions, unless it's not possible like in finals.
