Tournament Rules:
The following list of rules applies to all tours activities in the PS! Wi-Fi room, failure to follow the rules of tours may result in disqualification or room punishment.
Play fair & play respectfully.
Nobody wants to deal with a cheater or a sore loser.
Do not timer stall, do not trash talk players.
This may result in action being taken against the staller/trash talker.
Use of hacked Pokémon is strictly banned and has a severe penalty.
This will result in room punishment (Up to a blacklist).
You must always follow tier & format rules..
This includes custom rules/modifiers when appropriate.
Disputes as a result of timer will go as follows:
Either the games choice of who wins on screen as victor is what you both can go by... or if both sides agree one is massively favored over the other in the end state. Always reach out to a helper over timer disputes.
Monthlies are hosted twice the day after the Official Giveaway date just before 2PM-5PM EST accordingly.
Participating in more than one will result in forfeiting previously earned prizes.
All tiers chosen will be focused towards the best and newest supported game releases.
The current supported game is Scarlet/Violet.

All battles take place in-game, this means you cannot participate in Nugget Bridge battles using Showdown.
You may only face each trainer once per month per tier. Make sure to take a picture of the win or loss screen and upload it online for the win report!
You can look for battles in Wi-Fi by saying something along the lines of “LF: Nugget Bridge battle”. Organize the battle in PMs, not in chat.
Thrown matches, using non-viable teams, and / or breaking previously stated rules will result in 0 WP being awarded. Awarded WP and the Nugget Bridge page will update each time a helper checks submitted battles. Please be patient; these are user-updated and may take a bit of time.
Nugget Bridge, Practice Tours, and the Monthly all report in battles in the same fashion. The requirements for a battle report are; a clear visual indication of the Win/Loss screen, being either a screenshot/picture or recording of the moments leading up to the Win/Loss screen, if prompted about "any issues to note" they must relate to issues with rules being broken or poor sportsman ship or some other issue impeding the match (If you wish to direct feedback in general feel free to reach out to Tour Leaders).
When the battle comes towards the end both battlers should be prepared to capture the Win/Loss screen regardless of the winner or loser, Assuming you took a picture using your console go to your album and upload it wherever your able and use that or an alternative site for hosting such as discord or imgur or twitter same with video capture. You can also use other methods to capture the image such as a phone or camera as long as its clear and legible.
