    I have updated the participant list! I am so happy to see so much interest! If you have not yet provided your Showdown username please do

    There has been a lot of discussion about this event on Discord and I thought I would share some of that here for those who do not have discord access. Suggestions for those who are new to Pokémon showdown there are some good guides online by using the good ole google machine. If you are unsure on where to start with building a team check out this link (you need an account to see links). It will give some example teams that work with our Gen 8 OU rules.

    Another tips that came up was watching other players battle on Showdown to see different teams, moves and strategies.

    And of course practice, practice, practice!

    Im in! My name showdown name is Nyanobytes

    So this may be a dumb question, but ive never competitively battled before..
    When we build our team, can we only choose the Pokemon that have 'OU' next to their name (in the OU category)?
    Or are any Pokemon fine as long as we get the "Your team is valid for [Gen 8] OU." When we click validate?
    Because there are the other categories like UUBL, UU etc and idk what all that means ^^’

    Building a team is much more complex than I had imagined. I saw many videos on how to do it but the last place looks really tempting now... lol

    When building your team you can use those ones that have the OU next to their name however there are still other Pokémon you can use. As long as you have OU selected in the drop down you can then validate your team to see if it complie with Gen 8 OU rules. If it does youa re good to go. If it doesn't it will give you a reason why.

    You are added!

    Competitively, OU just means "Over Used" or pokemon you see a lot in battles. For example, Garchomp and Heatran are OU because you see those pokemon a lot in tournaments because of their movesets and advantages. You can use any pokemon so long as it's not an illegal one.

    Your team is fine for OU so long as you get the validation back from the checker.

    Thank you both so much, I appreciate the clarification! I got scared after doing a preliminary build when i realized i had picked some mons outside of the OU ones and was like "Oh.. oh no" - (Got the all clear with my current team via the validate button though, so yay!)

    Definitely going to be doing a lot of research these next two weeks! send help

    I've been battling comp for over a decade but gen 8 still confuses me a lot ha ha. I didn't play it or gen 7 much so I never got used to the new mons, moves and mechanics. Thanks for the help.
