This article is intended to help you understand what the tournament drop status in your Player Tournament Dashboard means.
| Message | Meaning |
| You have been dropped from the tournament. This may be due to choosing to drop, no-showing your match, or not qualifying for Phase 2 of your tournament. If you believe this is in error, report to the Hive immediately. | Most tournaments* will show this message when you've been removed from the tournament. |
| You have chosen to drop from the tournament. Enjoy your day! | Tournaments with enhanced messaging will show this message when you've voluntarily dropped from the tournament. |
| As a result of no-showing your match, you have been dropped from the tournament. If you want to re-enter the tournament, or you believe this is in error, report to the Hive immediately. | Tournaments with enhanced messaging will show this message If a player is paired for a round and does not report to the match, they will see this message. |
*For most Pokémon tournaments, this message will be shown to anyone who has been removed from the tournament. Examples include voluntarily dropping, not showing up to a match, or most commonly, not qualifying for Phase 2 of the tournament.
Note: If you notice any message about dropping during a tournament and did not intend to drop from the tournament, report to the Hive (at the match slip turn-in area) immediately!
