BW OU Opens-

• Open to the public with no cap on the number of accepted players. If you sign up you will get a chance to play!
• Single elimination.
• Due to imperfect starting numbers, byes may be awarded at random in the first round only.
• Any BW Open with less than 16 signups will be cancelled.
• All pairings in all rounds will be completely random. There are no predetermined brackets. If the tournament host chooses to play in the tournament a non-participating staff member will draw the pairings.
• Only communication on Pokemon Perfect or on Discord is eligible for consideration in the event of an activity win situation.
• Replays are mandatory from the semifinals onward.
• All matches are b03.
• All Smogon rules, bans and clauses are applicable.
• BW Championship Points will be awarded to players based on their finish as per the table listed below.

Pokemon Perfect BW OU Championship-

• This tour is comprised of exactly 16 players and is seeded (based on BW Championship Points).
• This tour is NOT open to everyone. Here is the breakdown how the spots will be filled:
  • The first and second place finishers in each of the 6 BW Opens will be guaranteed a spot in the BW Championship.
  • The remaining spots will be filled with the players with the most overall BW Championship Points. In the event of a tie, a tie-breaker for the spot will be required.
  • Please note - a player may place first or second in more than one an BW Open; to be clear they do not "double qualify". This tour will have exactly 16 players no matter what and that does not necessarily mean that it will be comprised of 12 unique first and second place finishers and the 2 players with the most BW Championship Points.
