BASIC RULES

Every battle will take place on Pokémon Showdown in the metagame "anything goes." At the beginning of the battle, you MUST send out the first Pokémon on your team. Afterwards, there is no set order.

LEADER RULES

CHALLENGER RULES

Every leader, except for the Champion, MUST use the custom rules for their position.  Do not use any banned variations, such as illegal moves, abilities, etc.

The team rules are listed below. If you need to use one, create a new team in the Teambuilder on Pokémon Showdown.

Challengers have no items, hidden abilities, or types until they unlock them. Challengers unlock these and more after every successful battle. The Challenger's starter MUST be the first Pokémon on every one of their teams. Their choice of starter resets after the Challenger goes back to Standby or becomes a leader (other than Champion). Challengers cannot use Shinies unless they have previously been champion. Here are the resources the Challenger can use in each battle:
