DUU Swiss TOUR!

[Platinum God n1n1]

Hello,

I'm excited to bring you a DUU swiss-style tour!
This means no eliminations; you will have a battle every week of the tour. Depending on number of sign ups this tour will last 3 to 5 weeks plus a mini bracket for the top 4 battlers who will compete for $20
Additionally there will be some smaller cash prizes which I will discuss after I close sign ups. These cash prizes will encourage activity through out the entire tour and will be paid through Venmo

RULES:

• All rounds will be Best of Three. You may switch teams in between battles of the same set.
• Matches are to be played on Pokemon Showdown! under the metagame Doubles UU
• To encourage the development of the metagame, and so that everyone is on an even playing field, all matches must have replays recorded. If neither player posts replays of the match, both players will be out of the bracket.
  
• Activity calls will be made by me, flips will be made on PS!
• In the event that something is added to or removed from the Doubles UU metagame in the middle of a round, that change will be in effect starting the next round.
• Each round lasts a week. Extensions given for extenuating circumstances
• Swagger is banned
• CHAR X is allowed

Standard Rules and Clauses

• Species Clause: A player cannot have two Pokemon with the same PokeDex number on his team.
• Evasion Clause: The moves Double Team and Minimize are banned. (No other evasion boosting things are banned).
• OHKO Clause: The moves Horn Drill, Guillotine, Sheer Cold, and Fissure are banned.
• Endless Battle Clause: Anything capable of intentionally creating an endless battle is banned.
• HypnoGravity Clause: The move Gravity is banned with all moves that can induce Sleep. I am not 100% sure if this is fully implemented on Pokemon Showdown!, so if it is not and you are found to be using it you will be disqualified and banned from future Circuit events.
• Anything that appears on Doubles UU' banlist is banned
