[LongRat]

Another 100 to randbats 1v1

 

[Murphy Lawden]

All my likes for banner, Occam's Razor said he'll give the last 1348

Yes

 

[Fancy1]

I don't know how much the highest bid is because people seemingly aren't keeping track, so
We are dropping a starting bid with all of the likes from: me, Itchy, Regional Manager, frogfacts, bo_bobson27, Mishlef, Nuxl, DEG

37,800 likes to get a Random Battles 1v1 ladder

the op of the thread literally has the current likes for each ladder so I don’t know who isn’t keeping track

^ in my defense it wasn't there when I was tallying like counts

spoke on discord, jotted down likes from people who have confirmed so far (radu/itchy/gorilaa), waiting for confirmation from others

All in on waiting, nothing ever happens.

SolgaleOU pulled ahead! It's first in place! SolgaleOU is the hope of the likeladder!

Solgaleo is perfectly balanced for OU. It's a pretty decent Pokémon who faces stiff competittion from Pyroar as the premier lion of OU. But Solgaleo has a few significant niches over Pyroar:
1. Solgaleo's stats are slightly better in general, even if it's speed is a bit lower.
2. Although their movepools overlap to a great extend with both having moves like Bulldoze, Swift, and Take down; of the two only Solgaleo can learn Cosmic Power.
3. Solgaleo is much better looking. While Pyroar was designed within 5 minutes and is just a generic bland fire lion that every franchise seems to have, Solgaleo's design took a different direction and is creative and beautiful. Solgaleo will certainly serve to make OU more beautiful.

SolgaleOU is the true OU. NogaleOU is a farce, a faker, a phony. Only when SolgaleOU wins will we be able to at long last play [Gen 9] OU. Until then, NogaleOU is the best we have and that's just not good enough.


But alas, OU has enemies. There are people who would want true OU to never exist, and who would want NogaleOU to keep reigning as usurper king. These enemies are trying to raise a Random ladder featuring a simple metagame no one is interested in for the sole purpose of opposing SolgaleOU.

Do not let this mercenary ladder win. Do not allow this foul ladder to fulfill it's evil of depriving us of experiencing true OU. Please support SolgaleOU.

are you trying to play double agent here

There’s a lot of political tension. I think Lunala really pretty (like sogaleo too tho ig)

There’s a lot of political tension. I think Lunala really pretty (like sogaleo too tho ig)

That's true. And there is only 1 way to solve the political tension: We of Smogon must unite for a single cause and put all our likes towards making our primary format, [Gen 9] OU, as good as it can be. We must cease fighting amongst ourselves and we must put our likes towards a common cause. Likes are too valuable a resource to waste on in-fighting.

So lets all unite and pool our likes into SolgaleOU! It's the only way forward. Let's make OU great again!

 

[DaddyBuzzwole]

Since UT was the thread starter, you should ask UT in a PM. You wouldn't want to get screwed over by the likeshop ending in the morning or afternoon after all.

That said, 3000 likes for the forum description to be “I spent 3000 likes during Likeshop 2025 and all I got was this forum description”

As promised, raising it to 3100:
