Welcome to Smogon VGC’s Spring Seasonal! This tournament will award points towards the 2024 VGC Circuit, which awards a prize banner and custom avatar to the winner of the entire circuit. If you win the seasonal itself, you will also get the "Seasonal Winner" role in the official Smogon VGC Discord! This year’s hosts are Akeras and LovelyLuna
SPECIFIC RULES
• This tournament will be played in VGC 2024 Regulation F.
• This tournament will be in Double Elimination.
• Every match will be in Best of Three, please use the built-in bo3 available when challenging. Matches MUST also be played with Open Team Sheets.
• We suggest to play your matches on Pokémon Showdown!, but playing on cartridge is allowed as long as both players agree and replays are provided.
• Replays are required for all matches. If neither player posts replays of the match, both players will suffer an automatic game loss. (If you were in losers' when you played, you are both out. If you were in winners', the winner is in losers' and the loser is out.)
• Do not cheat. Cheating will result in a disqualification and additional punishments may be applied if deemed necessary.
• Cheating includes, but is not limited to:
• Ghosting or being ghosted by another player
• Forcing deadgames and activity wins
Standard VGC Rules and Clauses
• Team Lock Clause: Players must use the same team for all battles of a given round. You can switch teams in between rounds, however.
• Item Clause: Players cannot have two of the same item on the same team.
• Species Clause: Players cannot have two Pokémon with the same Pokédex number on the same team.
• Matches will be played at level 50.
HOW TO SCHEDULE
^ watch this if you don't know how
Message your opponent, preferably on their Smogon wall (linked in pairings) publically and work out a time between the two. Please be clear and timely with your scheduling so there is no confusion! Use concrete dates and times (with timezones) for clarity!
Don't say Friday at 5pm, say March 8th 17:00 GMT-4! (Just an example.)
CALLING ACTIVITY
You may find that your opponent will not respond to your attempts to schedule the game. If this happens, make sure these rules happen before calling activity:
• It must be at least halfway through the week. Don't expect people to respond to you and be prepared just as fast.
• If it's later in the week, you've been without a response for 24 hours.
• You should be scheduling on each other's Smogon wall, but if you're scheduling using Smogon PMs, Discord DMs, or Twitter DMs, please either post the scheduling conversation or send it to a host privately.
