National Dex RU Seasonal Tournament
Hosted by Lupla
a terrible hoster


Welcome everyone to the 2nd National Dex RU Tournament on Smogon! Time to begin this with Round 1 and see how things go through. Good luck everyone and hope you can enjoy the Meta! The current resources are Viability Rankings, Sample Teams, Set Compendium, Role Compendium and Speed Tiers, they can still be found in the Main Thread and the Discord Server (Some of them have both Docs and Smogon Post versions but i highly recommend checking out the Smogon versions)​


Specific Rules
  • All general rules apply.
  • Matches will be Best of Three.
  • Matches will be played in National Dex UU, but playing with the ND RU banlist.
  • Matches are to be played in the main server or in the Smogtours server.
  • Replays are mandatory.
  • Double Elimination

Identity
About playing on alts: It is entirely allowed to play on an alt other than your own main forum name, though if your opponent wishes to confirm your identity, you must log on to your main alt to show them you are who you claim to be. This is to prevent people from pretending to be who they're not.
About playing on different servers: Tournament matches must be played on the Smogtours server. The Main PS! server is also acceptable if both parties agree to that. Other servers are not sanctioned by the TD team and playing in them might result in your game not counting. Protect yourself from that by playing in Smogtours, where we also have the power to recreate games that end due to DC's.

Scouting
On scouting opponents: Going through your opponents replays of tournament and ladder games is entirely allowed, as long as a game is public there is nothing preventing you from watching it. An exception to this is abusing powers granted to you by being staff on Smogon or PS! to gain access to information a normal user wouldn't have access to, which is strictly forbidden.
On leaking teams: Divulging private information about someone's planned team to their opponent is never allowed, and will be heavily sanctioned. Requesting that such information be divulged is also grounds for punishment. Keep your scouting to publicly available information and you'll be fine.

Timer Clause / Disconnections
On Timeout losses: A player that loses by having all his time run out loses the game. This is only not the case if the player that received the timeout loss can be verified to have suffered a True Disconnection. Rematches are only allowed if there was a True Disconnection.
On True Disconnection: The TD team has a secret threshold of seconds that your timer must be at or above, from the moment you disconnect, for a timeout loss to be considered a True disconnection. If your game is determined to be a true disconnection if you played on Smogtours and contacted a TD before the room expired your game will be recreated up to the point the disconnect happened. It is the responsibility of the player that disconnected to get a TD into the room before it expires.

In case some of you noticed, the tournament is Single Elimination and this being a Seasonal doesn't really make sense and the reason as to why this happened is because im a fucking idiot at hosting.

This is the first time im hosting a tour and i have almost no experience and when i asked for a name for the tournament i grabbed this and didn't even think about it, so i made a small poll on the ND RU Discord server to change it after getting the idea a lot.

This won't fix my lack of braincells but the tournament now changes from Single Elimination to Double Elimination. I apologize for any inconvenience i made on this, i should have searched up more on this but now i hope yall can have a good day and hoping you don't mind this change.

Dlanyer sadly gets Game 2 forfeited due to an illegal mon used, sorry for everything and see yall later.

Hey all, hijacking this thread with the Lupler’s permission to provide some pretty important information.

There has been some confusion as to which Pokémon are legal, since we have to use the ND UU Format to build and play in. While the builder does list Pokémon below UU as “RU”, ND RU’s nature as an unofficial format prevents a BL List from appearing. There are also a few errors that display Pokémon in the wrong tier between ND UU and ND RU, something that naturally doesn’t matter for the official ND UU, but is a persistent issue for ND RU.

Additonally, the ND UU Ladder removes the ability to tell if a Pokémon is in a tier for actually being good there. ND RU has had absurdly good ND UU Pokémon, such as Zeraora and Hawlucha drop, and we still have staples such as Zarude. Meanwhile, ND UU has frequently stolen Pokémon such as Whimsicott, and still holds Donphan hostage.

This is the list of Pokémon that are legal in ND UU, but are illegal in ND RU due to either being UU by usage, or banned. Every other Pokémon legal in ND UU, but not listed here, are legal in ND RU.

Note: that this banlist, can always be found on the ND RU OP, which has been very recently updated to accommodate the June Tier Shifts.

While many ND UU by usage Pokémon are listed as RU on the builder, they are Not Allowed. As stated the Builder has some errors, which are in the process of being fixed.

Additionally, there are some Pokémon who are neither banned nor ND UU by usage, but are listed as ND UU on the builder. Here is a list of them. These Pokémon are legal in ND RU.

With all this said, I wish everyone good luck in their games, and hope you have fun playing ND RU.
