Hello, everybody! It's 0kamii, and yes, you read that right! Amethyst 0mega is hosting its very first tournament!

After the huge turn-out of the Spooky Cup last month, the breeders of your favorite breeding guild wanted to step in and take our turn to try and bring the community here at PokémonForever even closer! Thus, it's been decided that the next site tournament is going to be in a new format that we've created known as Little Hail Cup! The rules for this new tournament are very simple, and you can find them below.


The Rules:
1.) Only unevolved Ice-Type pokémon are allowed.
2.) Pokémon that do not evolve (Delibird, Cryogonal, Rotom-Fridge, etc.) are banned.
3.) A pokémon immune to hail via ability is allowed, but ONLY if they possess that ability. It is otherwise banned.
4.) All applicable Smogon Clauses apply, including Evasion, Species, Item, Self-KO, Sleep, and One-hit KO.
5.) Tournament will be held in VGC-style Doubles format (level 50 all). Each match will be 4 v 4, best of 3.
6.) It is mandatory for every participating team to have one, and only one, legal hail setter (Vulpix-Alola, Snover, or Amaura).
7.) The tournament will be held on cart. By request, the tournament will be held on the Sun and Moon games, not Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.
8.) Tournament will be held on Tuesday, December 19th at 2pm EST. Use Google to convert times if you're unsure of when 2pm is in your timezone.
9.) Have fun! Big Grin

The Sneasel evolution line has been banned because it was originally intended to be an unevolving pokémon, and thus has a base stat total double that of the rest of the format. Snow Cloak is also prohibited under the Evasion clause, as not to leave battles to chance. Furthermore, the pokémon Seel, Shellder, Pineco, Burmy, Sewaddle, Solosis, Shelmet, Vullaby, and Jangmo-o are permitted to enter but ONLY if they have their immunizing abilities (i.e. Overcoat/Ice Body).
