Stuff got into the way and I forgot to close this earlier, but it will be closed now.
Pokébilities: 74 - 0 = 74.
No other comes close.
One or two votes were pretty borderline, but I chose to accept those votes after some consideration. Congrats to Pokébities for winning April's OMotM! Be sure to tell Ivy and Rach congrats if you see them around! And be sure to keep an eye out for LCotM soon!
