  • Follow all rules listed here.
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for me to make decisions for activity calls when I can actually see what went down with scheduling.
  • If you are unable to schedule with your opponent, please let your managers know ASAP so they can communicate that to me or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.
  • Substitutions may be made after a week has started. When making a substitution, please tag myself, the managers of the opposing team, and all of the players affected by the substitute to ensure that everyone is made aware. Players who have already played in the week or were subbed out in the same week cannot be subbed back in.
  • If a match remains incomplete by the time of the deadline, it will be subject to an activity call.
  • Replays are mandatory. Not only are they useful for confirming wins, they contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later.
  • All replays MUST be public - this means no unlisting replays
  • Managers: Please send me your lineups in the same format that I used to post pairings. It makes it much easier to post future rounds more quickly.

First of all, I just want to say thank you to everyone on the team.

This was my very first experience being part of a Doubles team since I started playing on Pokémon Showdown. I know I kind of came out of nowhere. For a long time, I mostly played singles because I wanted to improve as much as possible and be ready to represent Belgium at the World Cup. But eventually I asked myself, "Why not fully commit to the format I've always loved the most?" So I decided to go all-in on Doubles.

Before I even started playing on Showdown, I played PokeMMO, where I discovered Doubles and completely fell in love with the format. That's also where I met a lot of amazing people, especially Incognition, Akaru, and LPZ, who were the ones that brought me over to Showdown.

To be honest, I always struggled in Singles. This year, I really wanted to improve and finally achieve something, so I dedicated myself entirely to Doubles. It turned out to be the best decision I could have made. I enjoy the game so much more, and I've started putting up some decent results.

I finished round 9 in OSDT, went 5-1 in FCL Doubles, where I got to meet IcyPenguin an absolute bro and someone I love building teams with. I also won my first Showdown tournament by taking the Vintage Tournament, and since then I've been enjoying competitive Pokémon more than ever.

Getting drafted into DPL was a huge opportunity for me. I know a lot of people probably had no idea how good I actually was, and I wanted to prove that I belonged here not only as a player, but also as someone who could contribute with building and preparation.

My first BW game couldn't have gone much better. I got a favorable matchup and managed to pivot really well against Checkmater. After that, Red trusted me enough to keep playing BW every single week. Right now I'm sitting at 2-3, and with one more game left, I'll do everything I can to finish 3-3.

Red, thank you so much for giving me this chance. Thank you for believing in me, helping with every prep, every test game, and letting me prove myself.

Razachu, thank you for everything, as always.
IcyPenguin2 , it's always a pleasure building with you. You're genuinely one of the best people I've met through this game.
papiloco, thank you for trusting the teams and ideas I brought to you.
gephicka , you were the GOAT when it came to EV spreads and all the little optimizations that made our builds even better.
MADARAAAA thanks for test game it helped a lot
AIRedzone all you to believe in me, truly thanks
And finally, thank you to the entire team. You all made my first DPL an unforgettable experience. Whether it was building together, testing, joking around, I had an amazing time. I hope this won't be my last tournament with you all, and regardless of what happens next, I'll always be grateful for the opportunity.

Thank you, everyone
