    Monotype is a meta where you must build a team with each Pokemon sharing a common type. So, build your teams carefully, as there are many different strategies and playstyles you could utilize!


    Tournament Special Rules:

    • Best of 3, Single Elimination
    • You may switch the type of your team between rounds.
    • Both single and dual-typed Pokémon are allowed. The shared type does not have to be the Pokemon's primary type.
    • In the case of Mega Evolutions, the typing of the regular form of the Pokémon is what counts. For example, Gyarados is a Water/Flying type, so even though Mega Gyarados is Water/Dark it can still be used on a Flying team. Following the same rule, Mega Gyarados cannot be used on a Dark team because regular Gyarados is not Dark type.


    General Rules:

    • Baton Pass Clause: Limit one Pokémon knowing Baton Pass.
    • Swagger Clause: Swagger is banned.
    • Same Type Clause: Pokémon in a team must share a type.
    • Species Clause: A player cannot have two of the same Pokémon on their team. For example, a player cannot have two Koffing on his or her team.
    • Sleep Clause: A player cannot put two or more different opposing Pokémon to sleep using attacks that induce sleep to opposing Pokémon.
    • Evasion Clause: A player cannot increase their Pokémon's evasion stat with a move that specifically increases evasion. Items or indirect boosts do not break this clause.
    • OHKO Clause: Players cannot use Horn Drill, Guillotine, Sheer Cold, or Fissure in any of their Pokémon's movesets.
    • Battle Timeout: If a player exhausts the timer, he/she loses.
    • Moody Clause: The ability Moody is banned from play.
    • Endless Battle Clause

    Also everyone should check here to make sure none of their Pokemon are banned (e.g. no Talonflame).
