Default The World Cup of Pokemon VII - Semifinals

Two dramatic tiebreaks later and we have arrived to the semi finals! For the first time in Smogon history, a team other than Asia and Oceania will take the crown as the greatest Pokenation in the world. Fresh off their tiebreak victories, Latin America and USA East seem to have a lot to prove, but Brazil and USA West both look equally ready to fight it out for the World Cup crown. Good luck to the remaining four teams, and may the best win!
  • The final rosters can be viewed here.
  • The format can be found here.
  • The rules of the tournament can be found here.
  • The standings after the prelims can be found here.
Brackets

After the first round, the teams were seeded and will now play in a knockout style. Let's take a look at the pairings!



The Bracket

Substitutions

Substitutions can be made at any time, but once a player has been subbed out, they cannot be put back in for the duration of the round.

Rulings

Now some notes on a few issues I feel need to be addressed (basically rulings on often disputed topics):

A bunch of rulings I expect you all to read

Deadline

The deadline for this round will be ten days from now, Saturday, August 4 at 11:59 EST. Tiebreaker matches will happen after this deadline (if necessary). I will be calling activity wins and monitoring all these battles carefully, so make sure to keep in contact with your opponent and get it done!

To the Final Four: good job making it this far, but there can only be one winner. Prove it should be you...

FIGHT FOR YOUR COUNTRY!!!!!!!! (you didn't think I'd forget, did you??)

so a little late but i wanna congratulate team asia on a good run. although we saw ourselves hoisting the trophy, pokemon happens and it's an inevitable part of the game. i enjoyed talking with you guys and having you all around. gl in the future wcops, i want the trophy back to where it rightfully belongs. if i have time in the future and a spot is open i will try my best to play in the future. big ups to eo as well for playing the tiebreak well. even though you lost, you played great and the entire team had confidence in you. on another day with some better luck you would have won it. thanks for cocaptaining with me and doing a lot of the grunt work and shit, you the boss.
