Rules

• 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.
• 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.

Magearna Never Misses (4) vs (4) Ironhide Great Tusks
SV MnM: Slikkles (40) vs (60) kDCA
unfortunately slik lost to mindnoob i cant bold him
SV MnM: Betticus IV (45) vs (55) Axzel
axzel just got bullied in ss but this is sv so anything can happen. i dont think he'll go 0-6 so ill give it to him tho objectively betticus probably has an advantage
SV MnM: ghostlike (55) vs (45) seraphz
if ghostlike doesn't troll hard he should be able to cook some heat and win this
SS MnM: Ivar57 (60) vs (40) hayedenn
hayedenn ss axzel sv is an interesting experiment--i think it's a good choice. ill have to give it to ivar tho
SM MnM: TrainerGoldAlt (60) vs (40) jb291
Gold is on a roll. He just wins.
ORAS MnM: dhelmise (45) vs (55) qways
qways has looked solid this tour. if dhelmise doesnt load some monotype team it should be close
SV LC MnM: Quinn (40) vs (60) bleahey
poor performance lately by quinn so ill give it to bleahey
Multigen Bo3 (SV/SS/SM): Clas (60) vs (40) Sagazinha
rough tier and pool for sagazinha--i feel like they'd have done much better in another tier like sv. playing all 3 is just too much (i dont blame them, it's very difficult to pick 3 tiers up) and clas is strong at all. shouldnt be very difficult for clas.

Pressing Poisonceuses (4) vs (4) MOCCing Machamps
SV MnM: TKYSZL (45) vs (55) zuzhouwawa
i think zuzhou is just a very talented player and has achieved a good level in sv mnm. lil shaky showing from zuzhou last wk but id still give them the winning odds
SV MnM: db (35) vs (65) RoFnA
db broke his losing streak last wk but rofna is a rough matchup
SV MnM: Mindnight (55) vs (45) lepton
mind has been doing surprisingly well and momentum is a strong factor
SS MnM: Redflix (60) vs (40) TectonicDestroyer
leading the pool
SM MnM: Tempo di anguria (40) vs (60) Mincera31
Cannot bold against Mince
ORAS MnM: Terracotta (60) vs (40) Pokemh
terra's teams and plays have looked good and i havent been a fan of some of pokemh's choices
SV LC MnM: qtfox (60) vs (40) giove97
i think ipika is stronger overall
Multigen Bo3 (SV/SS/SM): QT (60) vs (40) Treeko928
treeko is good but hard to imagine qt losing
