Welcome to AGPL VII! We'll start off by selecting 6 managers. That places the end of the tournament sometime in early-mid August. All teams must have one manager available from June through early August. Managers are expected to have past AGPL experience, managed in a Smogon team tournament before, and/or be a major contributor to AG. Managers are also expected to be active in their teamchat and respond quickly with substitutes or lineups. Failure to send the team's weekly lineup will result in the prior weeks lineup being used.

If you are interested in signing up to be a manager, post here using the following format:

Code: 
Manager:
Assistant Manager:
Team Name:
Prior Experience:

You are REQUIRED to have 1 co-manager, though you can edit it in later or choose them from the draft. The manager selection process is mostly subjective. The hosts alongside the rest of the moderation team will select the managers we feel are most strongly suited for the tournament.

General Information:
  • There will be 6 teams in this tournament
  • Each team will have 100k Credits to spend throughout the entire drafting process.
  • Each team must have a minimum of 10 players (8 starters + 2 substitutes).
  • BOTH manager can self-buy; Managers can self buy for 15k each.
  • After discussing with the tier leader, AGPL VII will not be having retains, as we believe they would make teams unbalanced.
  • The winning team of AGPL XIII will receive a Custom Avatar.

The following tiers will be featured in AGPL VII:
  • SV AG
  • SV AG
  • SV AG Bo3
  • SS AG
  • DLC 1 SS NDAG
  • USUM AG
  • ORAS AG
  • Multigen Bo3 (SV / SS / USUM)

Assistant Manager: MirrorSaMa
Team Name:Nine Oblivion Ambers :Xerneas:
Prior Experience:I scored over 900 in AG last year and was the first seed in the circuit sheet. I also served on the AG Tier Council. Recently, I was the runner-up in AGLT. I have both the skill and enthusiasm required for this tier.
In team tournaments, I’ve participated in all major tours involving the AG tier, such as AGWL, AGPL, and UMPL, and achieved consistently good results.
As a manager, I’ve led teams in CNPL and MSPL, and most recently, together with my partner Mirror, I managed a team that won UMBD .

MirrorSaMa is active in AG, he has won UMPL AGWL and AGPL, he managed this year's AGWL and reached the finals, he and I have managed CPL, UMBD, MSPL and recently won UMBD. He was a semi-finalist in AGLT AGpayoff and AGhome flied, and was the runner-up in AG OPEN and SSNL this year. He has experience in managing teams and this tier.
I’m confident in my ability to draft a dynamic and competitive team, and I’m aiming for a strong record in AGPL.

Manager: Jeza.p
Assistant Manager: entrocefalo
Team Name: :yveltal: Crimson Eclipse :yveltal:
Prior Experience:

I’ve been leading Team France in both the UU and NU World Cups and have managed across a wide range of major tournaments, including PTPL, HPL, BSSPL, UUbersPL, UUSD, RUPL, and many more.

Since I began managing on Smogon in 2023, I’ve built a consistent and proven track record. I’ve won the UUFPL twice (2023 and 2025), reached the finals of the Spanish PL (EPL) in 2023 before winning it in 2024, captured the NFE PL title, and more recently, secured victories in both the Teamballo (Italian PL) and the latest edition of the Chinese PL. My commitment extends to the AG tournament scene as well, where I’ve managed “Andiamo al Klang” in the last UMPL and the “Spectral Sovereigns” in the most recent AGWL.

For this tournament, I’ll be joined by none other than the AG Circuit Champion, Entrocefalo. With numerous successes across Smogon, Entro is the perfect partner, blending deep tier knowledge with my passion for management. Together, we form a duo built on experience, trust, and the desire to bring the best out of every team we lead.

Assistant Manager: Pokemh
Team Name: Flooded Groudons
Prior Experience:
I just won back to back SM cups and have exceled in every AG classic I've been apart of and supported the most recent classic winner with teams and prep in finals to make sure they win. I'm an active builder in SM and experienced and knowledgeable in all AG oldgens I've been apart of and consistently post positive records in teamtours in SM in every AG team tour I'm apart of, while always supporting other slots in prep where I can. I'm also competent and helpful in prep at SS and ORAS AG due to playing a meaningful amount of both in classic and being an active SS player and builder when SS was current gen. Pokemh is an active and heavily experienced SV and SS AG player who won the most recent SS cup in classic without dropping a game in any of her series en route to a win. She won the most recent AGWL playing in SS every week that her team played and was key in helping her team to a win. In the most recent UMBD she went 5-3 playing in SV and helped guide her team to a finals appearance. She's one of the most dedicated grinders of any tier (or tour) on the site when she's motivated, and between me and her we cover all the tiers in the tour at a high level. We're both in touch with the community and believe we could draft a team capable of winning AGPL.

Logo will be edited in once it's finished.
