Welcome to Week 35 of the Random Battles Team Tour, where 8 teams will compete for the title of RBTT Champion as well as a custom avatar!

Tournament Rules
  • The tournament will consist of 8 teams battling it out in a Round Robin format over seven weeks; after that, the four best teams overall will move onto playoffs.
  • Each series will be played as a Best of 3.
  • Matches are to be played on Pokémon Showdown.
  • Do not make baseless activity posts, get in contact with your opponent and report missed times / scheduling issues only.
  • Replays of the matches must be posted to verify a win; if replays are not posted, the match doesn't count.
General Tournament Rules
  • Scheduling: Attempt to contact your opponent by posting on their smogon profile as soon as possible. It is strongly advised to schedule publicly there on Smogon so the host can make any necessary activity calls. If you cannot get in contact with your opponent, inform the host in this thread so we can make any necessary substitution. If you have made no visible contact, the host may substitute you out for another player.
  • Timer Clause and Disconnections: The timer is not required to be on during games; however, if the timer is on and a player runs out of time, their opponent wins the game via timeout. If a player disconnects and thus times out, this also counts as a loss for the player who disconnected.
  • Don't ghost. As of recent tournaments-forum rules, this also includes calcing for teammates that are playing, so please do not delegate doing calcs to your teammates when you play.

Predictions!

Xceloh (60) vs. London13 (40) - Despite being newer, Xceloh has been more dedicated to early gen rands than London has. That said, London did pull out a win last week against Neycwang. This series could go in either player's favor, but I'm more biased towards Xceloh's extra experience with the generation.

Amaranth(25) vs. xGang (75) - I haven't even heard of Amaranth before but they're apparently from 2015??? I have nothing to work with here so I'm just going to predict heavily in favor of xGang.

Roginald (30) vs. Ereshkigal (70) - Ereshkigal is fresh off a win against xGang last week and put up a strong showing in last year's RBTT. Combine this with the fact that Roginald is still shaking off some rust and I'm heavily favoring Ereshkigal.

Ok last week predicts didn't go super well but let's try again and this time I'm not late!

Team Darkrai (5) vs Team Deoxys (7)
Gen 8 Random Battle: BoRida vs sunsets | BoRida is the goat and his showings against odr were very convincing
Gen 8 Random Battle: Xeizar vs teresbahji | Xeizar didn't play last week, while teres is on a roll, so I give him an edge but I'm sure about this one
Gen 7 Random Battle: Staxi vs Piyush25 | Go la table !
Gen 5 Random Battle: Roseybear vs Expulso | Expluso is not to be underestimated, I think they got this.
Gen 4 Random Battle: Rage vs Trade | Let's go Rage, you lost all your bad luck vs me yesterday!
Gen 3 Random Battle: Amaranth vs xGang | Definitely the highlight match up, Amaranth is insane but so is xGang and I'm sure the 1st pick is eager to redeem himself after last week loss.
Gen 1 Random Battle: May vs YBW | YBW is very, very strong
Gen 8 Hackmons Cup: MultiAmmiratore vs Fragments | Another one that could go either way, and not only because it is hc!
Gen 7 Battle Factory: TJ vs jonfilch | Another highlight match, going with jonfilch but both are very strong
Gen 8 BSS Factory: Sificon vs zioziotrip | Don't know anything about BSSF so a bit of a random pick
Gen 8 Random Doubles Battle: HeroicTobias vs snorlax142857 | Tobias is one of the best dubs player in the field, despite a rocky start
Gen 8 Challenge Cup: Andy Snype vs karloco | Quite an even match up, but I'll still bold karloco here


Team Yveltal (8) vs Team Arcanine (4)
Gen 8 Random Battle: pokeblade101 vs peap | Blade ended up not choking last week but misclicked instead, if you keep up this way you're unstoppable
Gen 8 Random Battle: i want a lamp vs KyogreF4N | Who allowed Yveltal to have such a strong gen8 core, let's go lamp!
Gen 7 Random Battle: Betathunder vs bobomania | Never sleep on Bobo, but betathunder is very, very strong
Gen 5 Random Battle: CMDoge vs Dj Breloominati♬ | La taaable et le chiiiien!
Gen 4 Random Battle: PrinceOfAllTacos vs Celever | Two strong players, I'll give the edge to Celly though.
Gen 3 Random Battle: Dragonillis vs HeadsILoseTailsYouWin | Anna says hi and says you lost
Gen 1 Random Battle: Davy Green vs Alpha Male Psyduck | AMP might be the strongest player in the gen1 field
Gen 8 Hackmons Cup: Panty&Stockings vs Nudepantsman | Pants :o
Gen 7 Battle Factory: trace vs ORAS-Mega | The Battle Factory field is stacked with great players, but ORAS-Mega did such a tremendous job last year and it doesn't seem to stop
Gen 8 BSS Factory: Emboar02 vs PikaPlayer | BSSF lol, sorry Pika I'm bolding against you once again
Gen 8 Random Doubles Battle: Glop vs Crunchman | I wasn't too impressed by Crunchman last week, hope they'll bounce back, but Glop is very solid
Gen 8 Challenge Cup: JonahRamone vs Fant'sy Beast | Jonah was born in Challenge Cup, but we all know it could go either way


Team Kyogre (4) vs Team Rayquaza (8)
Gen 8 Random Battle: Icemaster vs MichaelderBeste2 | Would be criminal to pick against Michael
Gen 8 Random Battle: GXE vs Lady Writer | Another highlight, but GXE is super dangerous.
Gen 7 Random Battle: mj vs benJAMIN | Never go against benji unless it's vs Elgino
Gen 5 Random Battle: faint vs ajhockeystar | Not too sure about this one
Gen 4 Random Battle: Jytcampbell vs SMB | SMB is strong, from what I have seen
Gen 3 Random Battle: Roginald vs Ereshkigal | Eresh is on fire after winning in such a convincing manner against xGang
Gen 1 Random Battle: tylerfitz8 vs Mikon | Don't know much about Mikon, but I know enough about tyler to know they got this
Gen 8 Hackmons Cup: Petros vs Shadows4 | Highlight hc game, it's weird to bold against Petros but let's do it nonetheless
Gen 7 Battle Factory: lax vs boulicrok | Just roll LC, smh
Gen 8 BSS Factory: Z Strats vs I want Atago to sit on me | nothing much to say it's BSSF and I still don't understand shit about it
Gen 8 Random Doubles Battle: jackofspadesman vs LoSconosciuto | Lol.
Gen 8 Challenge Cup: umbry vs duck | Not too sure about the last one, challenge cup can be a tad volatile
