​
It is recommended to play all games on SmogTours in the most current version of the format corresponding to those listed above. Games can be played on the Pokemon Showdown main server, but run higher risk of interference from server restarts/crashes.​



Scheduling
Scheduling should be done on Smogon Profile walls, plain and simple:​
- If there is communication on only one user's behalf, the win will go to them. Feel free to call activity in this thread beforehand​
- If there is a very healthy back and forth regarding potential times and one user is a no-show, a manager may take the opportunity to sub out the no-show competitor; if this is not done, the user that showed up responsibly will be awarded the win.​
TL;DR: Post on your opponent's Smogon wall, schedule your matches, and be reliable. If you can't play for any reason, let your manager know so they can sub you out ASAP.​



Sportsmanship
Exhibitions of unsportsmanlike conduct with regards to the Other Metagame Premier League will be met with an infraction at the discretion of the OMPL host/OM mods. This is unlikely to include interactions within a team's private chat unless there is reason found to make an exception. This rule is meant to protect other users from being publicly flamed/bashed/provoked by another competitor for the duration of and following the tournament.​
​
All players must complete their matches by the given deadline. Any incomplete matches by that time will be subject to an activity decision (MAKE SURE YOU POST ON YOUR OPPONENT'S WALL); otherwise, it will be a deadgame. All matches should ideally be done on your most notable alt to avoid confusion and all match replays must be saved and posted in this thread.​



Substitutions & Lineups
Managers, if you wish to make any substitutions, you must post here tagging both the player you're subbing out, the player you're subbing in, the manager and assistant manager of the opposing team, the substitute's opponent, and all of the hosts. This is to assure that everyone is in-the-loop and that the OP is updated accordingly to reflect the new match-up.​
​
Managers, when you send in lineups, please send it in with the tier and Smogon username of each player fully written out for ease of transcription.​

As a member of dialgas, we will use every dirty, shameless, illegal operation.
We will play with the gang. We will try to win the game. We will bring out the worst HO and rainy team ever. We will blame our failure on luck. We will never fight fair and square. Did we agree to play Bo3? We will declare victory after easily winning the first game and ignore the previous agreement. We will use smurfs to infiltrate the group chat to steal your team and then target them to death. If you dare to kill a Pokémon that we personally sold, we will DDOS you. We will use timers to win. We will fight on official servers to taunt you and destroy your mentality. If you win, we will only recognize your luck.

very serious bh predicts

BH: Ivar57 (75) vs. Wheaty (25)
Ivar is realy good at the game. I think unless Wheaty gets a really strong matchup it's gonna be heavily in Ivar's favor since he'll click better.
BH: quojova (55) vs. Ballfire (45)
Ballfire got a win now so that's good but quojova is really good so I'd say they're favored, still wanna be a ballfire believer to some extent though so that's why the ranking is close.
BH: cityscapes (100) vs. XxLazzerpenguinxX (0)
City is better and Sevag's unusual teamstyles are not gonna work as well against her as they do against typical balance. I've been generally downplaying her in my predicts but I'm gonna go all in this week.

BH games only
Bo3: SammyCe123 (65) vs. TTTech (35)
TTTech is getting called out by aerilate celesteela I can't endorse this guy.
Bo3: Icemaster (60) vs. Mindnight (40)
Icemaster wins unless Mindnight recognizes what sample they load but Mindnight doesn't play bh so it's probably fine.
Bo3: damflame 3 (40) vs Clas (60)
Clas loaded a really cool team last week whereas damflame is just using city builds as far as I can tell, which lose effectiveness when she isn't the pilot.
 
ok fine ill do predicts since so many people asked (nobody asked)

W VIRIZZIONS (2) vs. (6) Gholden Witches
AAA: matte vs. Atha - atha's the goat already but esp bc of the nicknames last week
AAA: shiloh vs. Irene - shiloh's my bro
BH: Quinn vs. Akira - ok wait quinn's lowkey cracked. i think akira's got more experience and her meta knowledge is strong but like i'm honestly hoping for the upset? idk if quinn's touched bh prior to this tour (i think she did doubles) and they're lowkey killing it
STAB: Fusien vs. One Last Kiss - ok both players are doing sorta well so this is just a vibe check
MnM: emoxu9 vs. TKYSZL - also a vibe check
GG: pannu vs. Starshine. - starshine is one of pannu's approved gg players which i think means you have to be insanely better than him. so.
PiC: NovaFish21 vs. GhastlyPixie - she's an icon
Bo3: fififlutters vs. QT - pride month buff applies to both of them here so it's a little tougher to predict this especially because both are absolutely cracked. however qt's one of my fav people ever so

Heart Takers (5) vs. (3) Dazzling Diancies
AAA: ghostlike vs. Kinetic - idk just a hunch
AAA: Stareal vs. Mada - im a stareal fan
BH: Ivar57 vs. Wheaty - wheaty was one of two parties responsible for kicking off the Great Ompl Thread Fiasco Of 2025 so i love his vibe already, we need more of those. however ivar is ivar
STAB: Avarice vs. Tempo di anguria - im excited for this yall dont know
MnM: hayedenn vs. zastra - hard to bold against the undefeated streak. and again, pride month buff
GG: Entrocefalo vs. LBN - i like entro
PiC: Frixel vs. yuki - bro i like both of these people but im considering moving to london and i think bolding yuki will strengthen my visa application
Bo3: SammyCe123 vs. TTTech - bro got bodied by damflame harding aerispeed steela into a mega blaziken he lost SO much aura from that. like yes he won the game but at the cost of how many aura points. that being said sammy was gonna blame a queer person for his loss next week until i pointed out that'd be awful to do especially on pride month where we're allowed to make all the mistakes we want.. however he's a man who learned from his mistakes and is #reformed. gents, ladies and nonbinary baddies, that is an important quality for a man to have (i'd know).

Zoomer Zeraoras (3) vs. (5) Pink Ponyta Club
AAA: Siamato vs. Glory - im on this team i fear sorry siamato
AAA: Lana vs. feen - feen's got this if he remembers what immunity abilities do, but it'll be tough bc lana's an absolute goddess at this game
BH: quojova vs. Ballfire - quo's gameplay gives me dopamine
STAB: Kaif vs. xdRudi.exe - kaif made a mistake week 1 and apologized for it. ladies, gents and nonbinary people in the pride protest tents, this is what's important in a man. that's my goat
MnM: Tbp24 vs. db - db understands spongebob references and idk who the other person is. i think they won a few games though
GG: Rio Vidal vs. Lily - i passed lily double marowak w/ toxapex god last night. idk if it's legal and idk if she'll use it. however ren teams never lose
PiC: zoe vs. Chromate - i'm a zoe stan. HOWEVER it is chromate who's undefeated (i think?)
BO3: Icemaster vs. Mindnight - ehhh i think icemaster's a tough opp to beat but i wouldnt count mindnight out

Commanders (5) vs. (3) Crazy Diamond Dialgas
AAA: Iride vs. O1V7O2X9O - how do you guys even pronounce this name??? wrong answers only (but id appreciate a right one)
AAA: Maybca☆〜ゝ。∂ vs. GlalieGoesBoom - uhh sure why not
BH: cityscapes vs. XxLazzerpenguinxX - that's the bh goddess i fear. also it's pride month. having xs in your name doesnt count as pride. we gatekeep out here
GG: Fc vs. word - holy shit i'm actually so excited for this game please message me personally when you guys are playing either of you. i'm actually gonna put this on my calendar. this is prob the best stab player rn vs the best stab player of the old OLD days like how would i not be hyped for this?? it's super hard to bold against either so i flipped a coin pain. fc vs nashrock
MnM: RoFnA vs SpaceSpeakers - idk i think rofna's good? but also idt this is what they main but .
STAB: Clem vs Nashrock - i like clem sadge. clem vs word
PiC: crow crumbs vs DeepFriedMagikarp - it's super hard to bold against undefeated and isn't the other person an aaa main? also dfm has adorable energy buff like. i went to a wedding a few years ago and there was this kid who was handing out flowers. that's his energy. i hope that kid's doing well actually she was so adorable
Bo3: damflame 3 vs Clas - AERILATE STEELA LETS GOOOOO

predicts are backkk

W VIRIZZIONS vs. Gholden Witches
AAA: matte vs. Atha - atha
AAA: shiloh vs. Irene - think Shiloh is better
BH: Quinn vs. Akira - dont think this is close
STAB: Fusien vs. One Last Kiss - load zamazenta = win or so I have been told
MnM: emoxu9 vs. TKYSZL - i think tkyszyl has much more experience in the tier
GG: pannu vs. Starshine. - mentor vs student type beat?
PiC: NovaFish21 vs. GhastlyPixie - I think this is probably closer than some people expect but I still have to back nf. however i heard they are playing today so they both get bonus points for swag
Bo3: fififlutters vs. QT - I think qt probably wins MnM. Fiora has a shot in all 3 of the tiers but favour QT overall

Heart Takers vs. Dazzling Diancies
AAA: ghostlike vs. Kinetic lol
AAA: Stareal vs. Mada - clicker v clicker with roughly equal builders, but stareal has more experience
BH: Ivar57 vs. Wheaty - Ivar is too strong
STAB: Avarice vs. Tempo di anguria - a good matchup for either player wins it for them
MnM: hayedenn vs. zastra - my hot take of the week. feel free to haha me!
GG: Entrocefalo vs. LBN - I actually rate LBN's chances here but entro is off a v good win vs Pannu
PiC: Frixel vs. yuki - yuki
Bo3: SammyCe123 vs. TTTech - TTTech always wins MnM I think, and is probably favoured to win BH if it gets there

Zoomer Zeraoras vs. Pink Ponyta Club
AAA: Siamato vs. Glory - glory has finished touching grass. the power of grass touching fills glory with determination
AAA: Lana vs. feen - i back the ponyta's aaa builder
BH: quojova vs. Ballfire - i think quo takes it
STAB: Kaif vs. xdRudi.exe - i am running out of things to say
MnM: Tbp24 vs. db - db type shit
GG: Rio Vidal vs. Lily - even with fraise support i think lily is too much for rio
PiC: zoe vs. Chromate - MATCHUP OF THE WEEK
BO3: Icemaster vs. Mindnight - fish gaming getting devoiced on smogtours is the biggest buff of the century for icemaster

Commanders vs. Crazy Diamond Dialgas
AAA: Iride vs. O1V7O2X9O - o1 is better i think
AAA: Maybca☆〜ゝ。∂ vs. GlalieGoesBoom - glalie is back and you know what i'll back em they've earned the bold
BH: cityscapes vs. XxLazzerpenguinxX - i think city is 4-0 but i'm not fact checking that
GG: Fc vs. Nashrock - Fc been on a tear lately so i'll back em but i rate nashrock's chances
MnM: RoFnA vs SpaceSpeakers - placu takes a break and in comes broken mnm player number 2
STAB: Clem vs word - word
PiC: crow crumbs vs DeepFriedMagikarp - birds can't eat fried fish
Bo3: damflame 3 vs Clas - clas wins gg and mnm, has ok odds in bh, so i think i'll back him this week
 
BH Predicts:

Quin (35) v (65) Akira: I just think Akira is better.

Fiora (45) v (55) QT: I feel like QT has the edge.

Ivar (50) v (50) Wheaty: I feel like this is a lot closer than people think.

Sammy (45) v (55) TTTech: I’m rooting for Tech.

Quojova (60) v (40) Ballfire: just feel like Quojova is better.

Midnight (40) v (60) Icemaster: Feel like ice is the better clicker.

Cityscapes (55) v (45) Sevag. Feel like city will outbuild.

Damflame (55) v (45) Clas. Gotta root for Damflame.
 
11/22 I'm constant in my mediocrity and here we go again

W VIRIZZIONS (5) vs. (3) Gholden Witches
AAA: matte vs. Atha - did shiloh fear atha or matte wanted to get stomped ? anyways, atha sucks but he should win this esp after the bad rng last week
AAA: shiloh vs. Irene - Witches are surprisingly struggling in AAA (2-6 overall lol) and while Irene is one of their wins, shiloh is probably the better player here
BH: Quinn vs. Akira - I have to calm my nerves after Akira's last game and while we avenged that in Siamato's game (kinda) (cuz he still loaded bramble into mandibuzz) but until that, I'm not bolding her
STAB: Fusien vs. One Last Kiss - idk but I like OLK teams more
MnM: emoxu9 vs. TKYSZL - free my boy career, also ive not been too convinced by emoxu so far and TKYSZL is not to be underestimated but I feel like TKYSZL might have trouble in prep if career doesnt help them
GG: pannu vs. Starshine. - I hate that pannu keeps saying that they lost bc they "didn't respect the opp and loaded fat" as if you wouldve won if you tried ; maybe but you didn't so you don't have to disrespect your opp after that. However, pannu is still pretty good if they do actually care and they will win, unfortunately
PiC: NovaFish21 vs. GhastlyPixie - both don't seem too hot in this ompl but I decided on w1 that I was a Ghastly fan and I'll still be this week
Bo3: fififlutters vs. QT - it's a really cool pairing and I'd rate QT a bit higher overall but I got the feeling that fifi teams might put QT in trouble

Heart Takers (4) vs. (4) Dazzling Diancies
AAA: ghostlike vs. Kinetic - fuck you + ghostlike I did not have the time to predict for you that you already lost you're so bad + if Kinetic rfn's next week, he is going to lose (mark my words) (he will fear)
AAA: Stareal vs. Mada - Mada loaded into a really bad and unlucky matchup last week while Stareal loaded in a really good one, but even w/o that Stareal have played much better so far
BH: Ivar57 vs. Wheaty - this is it. This is wheaty's week. I hope Ivar is ready bc he is going to get stomped
STAB: Avarice vs. Tempo di anguria - One has defeated the handsome Clem, the other has not played a single game so far..
MnM: hayedenn vs. zastra - best player of today against uhn best player of today starting with z and ending with astra
GG: Entrocefalo vs. LBN - Entrocefalo loaded the hardest cteam ever and ive liked like LBN games more so far
PiC: Frixel vs. yuki - yuki is my #2 pic goat
Bo3: SammyCe123 vs. TTTech - if sammy doesn't load trash ass hayedenn teams, he can't lose

Commanders (3) vs. (5) Crazy Diamond Dialgas
AAA: Iride vs. O1V7O2X9O - Iride is good but O1V is better if he doesnt get HO'd a fourth time lol
AAA: Maybca☆〜ゝ。∂ vs. GlalieGoesBoom - Glalie is prob better in AAA
BH: cityscapes vs. XxLazzerpenguinxX - #1 goat of this OMPL and she did not let me down so far
STAB: Clem vs. word - I liked word's team last week but Clem's was sexier and he's also the best sry, I'll bold you next week though I promise
MnM: RoFnA vs SpaceSpeakers - SPACESPEAKERS OFF THE BENCH ? there is no way he wins but im a fanboy so im bolding him <3333
GG: Fc vs Nashrock - Nashrock is good but Fc is super good
PiC: crow crumbs vs DeepFriedMagikarp - so bird is just a sacrifice at this point, I would be curious to see dfm against tougher opps (not that crow crumbs cant win but its v unlikely) as they only faced zoe as a major threat so far despite being 4-0
Bo3: damflame 3 vs Clas - Clas brought cool teams last week I liked it
