Ultra Sinnoh Classic Online Competition announced

The third Online Competition has been revealed, and it seems to be pretty restrictive.

The third Online Competition for Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon has recently been announced on the Pokémon Global Link. This is the Ultra Sinnoh Classic, which restricts the Pokémon used to those available in the Sinnoh Pokédex as of Pokémon Platinum.

This Online Competition will consist of Single Battles in which players bring 6 Pokémon to the battle, but only pick 3. Each Pokémon, as per the norm, will be set to Level 50, but there are no region restrictions, so Pokémon from previous generations can be used. There are, however, item restrictions; alongside the duplicate items clause, Mega Stones and Z-Crystals are banned entirely.

Participants will receive 50 Battle Points, and must compete in at least one battle to qualify.

Registration begins Thursday, February 15, 2018, at 00:00 UTC, and will close Thursday, February 22, 2018, at 23:59 UTC. Battles will take place Friday, February 23, 2018, at 00:00 UTC, until Sunday, February 25, 2018, at 23:59 UTC.

What kind of teams are you planning to take with you to this Online Competition?
