What's up everyone?! TalonMasterJ here with a brand new tournament for everyone! After the Pittsburgh regionals/Barcelona event, we're going into Regulation E format with the Teal Mask DLC format. As such, let's get a tournament going for anyone interested in competing at the Peoria regionals, Sacramento regionals, Toronto regionals, San Antonio regionals, Lille/Gdansk/Stuttgart Special Events, Brisbane regionals!

Please make sure you're part of the Talonite's Nest Discord for easier communication of round start times! -Link: https://discord.gg/4HSHKEaRbJ

• Once you join, please ping me and I'll give you the "Official Tournament Competitor" role

RENTAL TEAMS ARE LEGAL FOR USE IN THIS TOURNAMENT!

Rules:

• OTS are required (you'll submit these during registration; this includes Pokemon, moves, items, and Tera type)
• VGC Rules (bring six Pokemon teams, select four per match)
• Tournament is split into two stages: Swiss rounds and then top cut
  • Swiss rounds will be determined based on number of registered players
  • ALL SWISS ROUNDS ARE BEST OF 1! Essentially, think of it as playing the in-game ranked ladder or Showdown ladders
  • Top cut will be the top 8 players in a single elimination bracket
  • ALL TOP CUT ROUNDS WILL BE BEST OF 3!
  • Regulation E Rules:

     - Teal Mask Pokedex Pokemon are permitted alongside Ruin Pokemon, Paradox Pokemon, and HOME Transfers 
     - Official Rules #1 in rule selection

Disconnections: If you have a DC, please inform a judge using the "call judge" feature in Limitless. Only in extreme circumstances should you use the Discord

Streaming: Streams are HEAVILY encouraged if you want to do it! I might even pop into one of the streams and provide some live commentary on my own channel!

Prizing: I honestly can't offer prizing right now, but maybe down the line with your support, we can make tournaments that have prizing for the winners/top cut!
