The default platform for games to be played is on the Pokemon Showdown main server. All three matches must be opened before the first game starts with the same teams. If players both agree, matches can be played on cartridge, however full footage must be included. All games are to be played with Closed Team Sheets by default, go for OTS if both sides agree, won't stop that lol
