Scheduling
Scheduling should be done on Smogon Profile walls, plain and simple:
  • If there is communication on only one user's behalf, the win will go to them. Feel free to call activity in this thread beforehand
  • If there is a very healthy back and forth regarding potential times and one user is a no-show, a manager may take the opportunity to sub out the no-show competitor; if this is not done, the user that showed up responsibly will be awarded the win.
TL;DR: Post on your opponent's Smogon wall, schedule your matches, and be reliable. If you can't play for any reason, let your manager know so they can sub you out ASAP.

Sportsmanship
Exhibitions of unsportsmanlike conduct with regards to the 35 Pokes Premier League will be met with an infraction at the discretion of the 35PL host/NDAM mods. This is unlikely to include interactions within a team's private chat unless there is reason found to make an exception. This rule is meant to protect other users from being publicly flamed/bashed/provoked by another competitor for the duration of and following the tournament.

All players must complete their matches by the given deadline. Any incomplete matches by that time will be subject to an activity decision (MAKE SURE YOU POST ON YOUR OPPONENT'S WALL); otherwise, it will be a deadgame. All matches should ideally be done on your most notable alt (the one you registered for 35PL with) to avoid confusion and all match replays must be saved and posted in this thread. Use of the appropriate challenge code for the format you are playing is mandatory.

Index of challenge codes

Substitutions & Lineups
Managers, if you wish to make any substitutions, you must post here tagging both the player you're subbing out, the player you're subbing in, the manager and assistant manager of the opposing team, the substitute's opponent, and all of the hosts. This is to assure that everyone is in-the-loop and that the OP is updated accordingly to reflect the new match-up. Each team is permitted up to 2 substitutions per week.

Managers, when you send in lineups, please send it in with the tier and Smogon username of each player fully written out for ease of transcription, following these guidelines exactly.

Other Important Rulings

It is recommended to play all games on SmogTours in the most current version of the format corresponding to those listed above. Games can be played on the Pokemon Showdown main server if and only if both players agree, but run higher risk of interference from server restarts/crashes. The result between players may be decided in a best-of-one or best-of-three at the discretion of both players involved. If there is no agreement, the result will decided in a Bo1 by default.

Winning a round rewards a team with 2 points, drawing 1 point, and losing 0 points. In addition, the manner in which the round has been won will also be recorded i.e. the difference between a team's wins and losses in a specific week's round (referred to as "Win Differential").

Playoffs
Each team will play one another for five weeks. Based on the final standings, the top 3 teams will enter a Playoffs Round. The #1 Team automatically qualifies for Finals. The #2 and #3 teams face off in semi-finals to determine which team faces off against the #1 team in finals.

Tiebreaker
In the event of two teams being tied for a spot in the playoffs based on points and win differential, or a tie in the semi-final or final round, we will have a tiebreaker round(s).
Tiebreaker Rules: Both teams pick a format each. The hosts randomly pick the third format. Both teams then send their tiebreaker lineup to the hosts.

bolding off of vibes

:torkoal: Krakatoa vs Anistar Articunos :articuno:
Chemical_Jackfruit vs Zcarlett | "Chemical Jackfruit" goes hard af but Zcarlett is a friend of an acquaintance of mine so I gotta bold oomf
Mik3ymon vs TTK | Can't remember if Mik3ymon is one of the pixelmon players or not, but TTK has the UM room voice diff
Cloudznn vs seth | Cooler username
GCGoat vs Adriyun | Adriyun called me at 3am once and I've never forgiven him for it since /j
AuroraHertz vs VloneVictini | Vlone's chill af I think he's got this
Strings17 vs Steam Buns | "Strings17" kind of a mid nickname but I can't believed Steam Buns didn't go for the "Steamed Hams" username
angolano06 vs lolebruh | Sorry Lolebruh nothing against you but your username reminds me too much of this one freak i know
Zetious vs Tomotaco69 | I've seen tomotaco here and there but Zetious as a nickname goes kind of hard i can't lie
Ubo vs mh | Bruh there's no vibes to go off of here it's a tossup I can't
ilikeeatingcrayons vs Poosh_i | The Pooshi crashout is real, and always bold oomf

:gallade: Psycho Slashers vs The Wall :aggron-mega:
jayballester vs NoExistencia | Sounds a lil edgy I like it
Medasus vs AReallyShiftyGuy | Normally i'd bold the other guy, but something about them sounds a lil shifty ngl
pacheRomero vs Hogwobblin | I can't quite get what pacheRomero's got going on, but I'm getting major silly vibes from Hog
sablolol vs Fungal Plague | fungal plague sounds pretty tough so I think they got it
Msousa vs BellUno | Yea idk I'm getting nothing from these ppl
Plague vs presi | Missed opportunity from the manager to have the plagues play each other. That said, this one has a distinct lack of epic fungi
Habaduh vs eambplsl | haven't talked with eambplsl in over a year atp, but always bold oomf
Dugtrio Is Broken vs 7ayakum | Actually I don't think Dugtrio is broken (in ADV at least ;)
Scizor Boladão vs abra xdd | My favorite pixelmon player <3
jscurf vs Mada | I have no clue who jscurf is, but if they're at least as good a clicker as me from 4 months ago, I think they legit have a chance.

Oh and also it goes without saying that the absols are sweeping this tour but y'all already knew that ;)
