Congrats to the competitors in the playoffs of the first-ever Random Doubles Team Tour! This tournament is a celebration of all things both random and doubles, a place for those who want to think twice as much for half as long.

>>>SPREADSHEET<<<
​

Tournament Formats​

Under Los Juegos Del Azar rules, players may select three wildcards to use over the course of a match. They may choose from:
Remake Game
Ban Tera
Ban a Pokemon
Showset
To use a wildcard, simply type in chat that you want to use one (e.g. "showset hypno" or "ban garchomp"). Each wildcard may only be used by each player once per match, and each player may only use up to one wildcard per game. Wildcards must be used during team select before a player has locked in their team. If a player uses a wildcard and then instantly locks in their team before their opponent has a chance to adjust their picks accordingly, the wildcard user will be awarded a game loss, but their wildcard will not be consumed. The remake wildcard may not be used after another player has already used a

Generally, to facilitate the remake wildcard, players usually play their match as a best of 9 using this challenge code: /chall gen 9 Challenge Cup 2v2 @@@ best of = 9, and whoever is remaking forfeits the game immediately upon using the card. I also recommend checking that your opponent is ready for you to select in any game where you've used a wildcard to avoid the situation described above.
Players will play one game of [Gen 9] Random Doubles Battle, then the loser will pick a different format to play from the pool. Repeat until someone has won two games. Formats may not be played more than once in a set.

Code:
/chall gen9randomdoublesbattle
/chall championsrandomdoublesbattle
/chall gen9randomdoublesbattle @@@ pickedteamsize=4, team preview, forceopenteamsheets, VGC timer
/chall championsrandomdoublesbattle @@@ pickedteamsize=4, team preview, forceopenteamsheets, VGC timer
Code:
Gen 9 Bo5: /chall gen9randomdoublesbattle @@@ bestof=5
Gen 9 Bo3: /chall gen9randomdoublesbattle @@@ bestof=3
Champions Bo3: /chall championsrandomdoublesbattle @@@ bestof=3
Gen 9 OCR: /chall gen9randomdoublesbattle @@@ pickedteamsize=4, team preview, forceopenteamsheets, VGC timer, bestof=3
Gen 9 Doubles Hackmons Cup: /chall gen9doubleshackmonscup @@@ -wonderguard, bestof=3

General Rules​

General Smogon tournament rules and regulations apply.
Ideally, matches will be scheduled in the Random Doubles Discord Server; however, you may also schedule using Smogon walls.
Teams should be pinged in the Random Doubles Discord Server if a player fails to show up at a scheduled match time. Once that happens, a 30 minute timer starts, after which an act win will be awarded if the pinged team fails to find a suitable sub.
Replays must be both saved and posted for every game played.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the Random Doubles Discord Server or message me or ionnss here. Happy dubsing everyone!​

I have literally never done predictions before and every player here is very good I just wanted to try it, no one be offended pls

Speed Boosters (6) - (2) Mohabbatein
[Gen 9] Random Doubles Bo5: Sapphire vs. marcofiero
Sapphire was blessed by dinis to gen venomoth all games for the rest of playoffs making her a big threat. If Dinis's blessing doesn't come through though it's anyone's game.

[Gen 9] Random Doubles Bo3: snorlax142857 vs. teresbahji
I will never bet against my midwest brother (unless he's playing us)

[Gen 9] Random Doubles Bo3: Gom vs. Adelynn
Both great players, Addie more experienced in doubles.

[Champions] Random Doubles Bo3: livid washed vs. drowsy69
Livid went 5-0 in regular season - he may be the only person that understands how to run calcs in the cursed format that is Champions Doubles

[Gen 9] OCR Random Doubles Bo3: click>think vs. KeanuVGC
I watched this man play VGC top cut on stream, hard to bet against that. Formerly KeanuGrindingArc.

[Gen 9/Champions] Random Doubles Roulette Bo3: Lrogue vs. Arcticblast
Voting for rogue but I think it's important for me to acknowledge that Arcticblast probably has the best custom avatar on the whole website.

[Gen 9] Doubles Hackmons Cup Bo3: soTsoT vs. MultiAmmiratore
soTsoT will post a replay saying how unlucky he got and then you watch it and he'll still have won the game three mons to zero. This alone makes me trust him to navigate the nonsense that is hackmons. Also we have really similar birthdays

[Gen 9] Challenge Cup 2v2: goldmason vs. Emboar02
I will never bet against my midwest brother (unless he's playing us)
 
You thought it was a real tag but it was me, the Spotlight vote!!!

this tier is INASNELY bad btw, this set wasn't as consistent with how many possible kills rolls it had (I just crit instead) but it often feels like you have a KO and then when you actually put in the "EVS" correctly, it turns into a roll. the damage is somehow too high and too low, I don't know how to explain it but every move feels bad to click unless it's x4 effective and every switch feels so punishing.
also, +2 non-lorb gliscor having a chance to ohko prim with highhorsepower is absurd, just a thing I noticed in the calc, mon doesn't need toxic orb.

Wow these are some playoff-caliber matchups of bonafide HC superstars, you love to see it. Was going to make a predict post but honestly no clue who wins either of these, excited to watch though
