One Point Cup

The One Point Cup is an IPF competition set to be played in the Draft League's off season. Contested by eight teams including the three Draft League competitors, squads will be selected from pokemon with a draft points value of one.

## History

In January 2020, head of IPF competitions Tom Bowler announced that the cup would take place following the first season of the Draft League, either in April or May. "It will be a marvellous opportunity for lower ranked competitors who wouldn't normally get a look in," he said in an interview with the Daily Whismur.

One Point Cup I was eventually scheduled as starting in May. Kanto were announced as hosts after beating Sinnoh in the bidding process. Eight teams were announced as competing.

## Rotom-Assisted Replay

O'Horick was to further speculate during the Draft League winter break that the much-maligned Rotom-assisted replay system would be trialled during IPF competition for the first time during the One Point Cup. IPF officials are yet to comment.
