Similar to [[Flat Battle]] mode, Pokémon of Levels 51 and above will be temporarily reduced to Level 50, while Pokémon Level 50 and below will retain their levels. Held items may be used, but no two Pokémon from the same team may hold the same held item. Players are not allowed to change their held items after they had registered, and could only use items from within the game and those received at an official Pokémon event or promotion. Players will be allowed to change teams after Friday's preliminary tournament, should they advance to Saturday. | Similar to [[Flat Battle]] mode, Pokémon of Levels 51 and above will be temporarily reduced to Level 50, while Pokémon Level 50 and below will retain their levels.
