​
  • Schedule via Smogon VMs. It's easier for us to make decisions for activity calls when we 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 us or the other team's managers for a potential substitute.
  • 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, but they also contribute to usage stats and allow the people who couldn't watch the games live to watch them later.
  • To managers: Please send us your lineups in the same format that we used to post pairings. It makes it much easier to post future rounds more quickly.

(discounting games with subs or games where i bolded the vs)
Week 1: 16/27
Week 2: 19/30

:dewgong: Ding Dang Dewgongs (4) vs (6) Misinfo MissingNo :ditto:
RBY OU Bo5: Laroxyl vs spies - hes still goated
RBY OU Bo3: BlazingDark vs NotVeryCake - both 2-0 and i would normally say cake is the more reliable player but fk it, if BD is 2-0 there's a decent chance he's locked in and if BD he's locked in he's genuinely top class. this will probably be wrong but let's dream a little
RBY OU Bo3: Bedal Roscoe vs Mysterious M - both rightfully upseeded but MM is more consistent and well rounded
RBY OU Bo3: seraphz vs Bedschibaer - sphz still doesnt have any rbyou achievements that i know of
RBY OU Bo3: TheStupe vs virae - tour started poorly for virae and the rcop magic seems to have not carried over, therefore i revert to my general estimation which is: Gtupe Beats Most People
RBY Ubers: NDK vs YBW - having survived sabel + the pampu wildcard, idk if anything else is stopping ybw from sweeping the tour other than of course samu77 eventually
RBY UU: Fc vs User [738106] - fc has looked Horrid outright ngl but there's a player there and i reckon after 0-2 some alarm bells will ring and we'll find our footing again, usernumbers also struggled so this is THE week to get on board
RBY NU: hammer798 vs Click>Think - prior knowledge said hammer but on a whim i said "eh uh click beat chungler lets check his games" and like lmao this guy played an immaculate set. basically zero mistakes. rby nu perfection has been achieved by click over think out of nowhere. i guess some/all of ybw+virae+shane+spies+cake+roy have been on the job so that makes some sense, but still v impressive. im still on the hammer train too but i have watched One Bo3 and decided click>think is simply the best nu player at the moment
BY PU: PHB11677 vs hex - better button clicker
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Prussian-Jaeger vs royzin - just better

:articuno: Glacial Articunos (4) vs (6) Deadbeat Dugtrios :diglett:
RBY OU Bo5: RealJester vs Ctown6 - cant rlly bold the guy who didnt even show up last week
RBY OU2: phoopes vs Kristyl - cant rlly bold the guy who didnt even show up last week
RBY OU3: Gamebooadvanced vs LB - i rate LB but booga is 2-0, hard to bold against even tho i think this will be a close set
RBY OU4: Quarante8 vs oakdeon - more consistent tbh, if 48 shows up and doesnt tilt and stuff hes probably winning but thats a considerable number of ifs
RBY OU5: tr0mb0ner vs BIG WILL - i think the 2-3 scoreline last week flattered tr0mb0ner a bit (in the sense that tr0mb0ner's 2 wins were caused by zarel and amaranth moreso than by tr0mb0ner) but he still showed overall solidity that should be enough to take down william
RBY Ubers: Premonitions vs betathunder - prem scout is highkey ridiculous and unless they decide to start using good pokemon and sets more often theyre gonna lose a lot, even to ppl who arent necessarily at the top of ubers pool. definitely a sufficiently good clicker to win if they fix their tier understanding tho
RBY UU: Teh vs FighterFrog - teh tiltstreak has begun, not bolding until i see some tranquility and whimsy return to this man
RBY NU: BeatsBlack vs Sotina - on the surface this bold may look like uncivilized reactionary recordwatching backed by zero ball knowledge, however i promise you i have been thinking sotina is overrated for a hot minute + beats was pretty cutthroat on my player's mistakes last week, so i think hes actually just a bit better overall
RBY PU: Volk vs Inazuma-Fulgur - volk is solid, fulgur made some important mistakes despite winning w1 and dropped w2 to a bottom half player, would be pretty shocked to see an upset (especially given PU is the most skill rewarding tier in rby at the moment)
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Kingslayer Caterpie vs Mikon - ksc may have the mandate of heaven with the rng week1 + inexplicable gift received w2, but i will still predict with my brain for now, if he beats mikon too i will actually start bolding him on the basis of religious faith

:mankey: Pampu Primeapes (6) vs (4) Indigo Illusion :alakazam:
RBY OU Bo5: Serpi vs Ulti Bastion - this serpi guy is pretty good. ulti does have the personality and the quality to rise up to occasions like these but itd still be lunacy to actively bold him
RBY OU: KeshBa54 vs King Billu - it appears keshba has returned to hot form, perhaps the deeply unserious environment of the pampus has reinvigorated him. given i havent been able to actually watch his games i will simply bold him vs most people on vibes
RBY OU: Melbelle vs TPM - tpm passed the anesi test last week. i rate both but im bolding the one thats not 0-2 and more likely to be in a good mood for this match
RBY OU: Corvinus vs Justamente - ou3 quality at the least will just be farming most of ou4 without much trouble. tho corv is pretty strong for ou4 too. but justa should be better
RBY OU: Deezcastforms vs alidakiller - i understand alidakiller is 2-0 and kinda hype however they are yet to play a real player. depending on which deez shows up this might not change w3 either, but i think he's in good enough shape to not get goobed by random cheese and then i dont think alidas fundamentals hold up well enough to do the job
RBY Ubers: The Strap vs pixie909 - the pilots themselves mean nothing to me but im gonna bold for gastlies diff
RBY UU: pac vs Mrbanana45 - pac held up nicely so far and banana clicked some vile moves last week despite winning, think pac will be able to keep it together
RBY NU: THE_CHUNGLER vs yimb - ngl havent watched much from either but pretournament records + actual tournament records both say chungle
RBY PU: boomp vs Zpice - gap is pretty huge, will be shocked if theres an upset
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Zcarlett vs Lady Writer - idk what prompted the benching of 1-1 p&s + im not sure how on earth lw lost again but im assuming a replay of w1 (= horrid luck) i'm missing some information on both players but surely i'm not missing enough information to overturn the fundamental fact that LW is a different class

RBY OU Bo5: Laroxyl vs spies - Laro has been looking good so far, the 3-0 L vs Serpi is a big lie as he got quite unlucky there. Spies on the other hand went 2-0 up vs both his opps and got reverse swept by them making some huge misplays along the way. Gotta doubt the unc and bold Laro kek.
RBY OU Bo3: BlazingDark vs NotVeryCake - I flipped a coin here. I have a feeling this will be more of a highlight than the Bo5 mu ngl.
RBY OU Bo3: Bedal Roscoe vs Mysterious M - Has been looking really good, seems like the RCoP wasn't a fluke at all.
RBY OU Bo3: seraphz vs Bedschibaer - This guy should be fighting higher ranks of OU he's so fire.
RBY OU Bo3: TheStupe vs virae - Brain says Stupe as virae has been looking kinda balls so far but I gotta back up my GOAT.

:articuno: Glacial Articunos (0) vs (0) Deadbeat Dugtrios :diglett:
RBY OU Bo5: RealJester vs Ctown6 - (Insert Sceptross copypasta about how there will be no winners or losers here and bla, bla, bla...)
Fr tho is Jester even gonna show up? Also, ngl, why the fuck hasn't Ctown slotted Cow here and feed him Dodrio teams and shit bro throwing fr he's also been loading Clefables and other garbage in his games man what is he even doing bruh. Fuck this shit man.
RBY OU2: phoopes vs Kristyl - Surely she's not going 0-3? Surely? This is imo the highlight mu (provided phoopes shows up that is).
RBY OU3: Gamebooadvanced vs LB - Close mu. I'm going with the undefeated dude over the guy who's normally a sub tho.
RBY OU4: Quarante8 vs oakdeon - French civil war. I flipped a coin for this one.
RBY OU5: tr0mb0ner vs BIG WILL - Bruh I have been glazing this guy so bad surely he's not losing again. Shoutouts to Tromboner tho, some impressive stuff shown last week vs a Bo5 player.

:ninetales: Nine Inch Ninetales (0) vs (0) Saffron Haymakers :hitmonchan:
RBY OU Bo5: violet river vs Amaranth
RBY OU2: anesidora vs oligen1
RBY OU3: magialice vs SoggyBagel64
RBY OU4: Spoiledberries vs MGdos16
RBY OU5: Padeli vs Nimrra1
FUCK THE HAYMAKERS THEY MUST LOSE
THEY'RE NOTHING WITHOUT ME FRFR
Anyways, Amaranth vs River is the highlight here.
 
:dewgong: Ding Dang Dewgongs (5) vs (5) Misinfo MissingNo :ditto:
RBY OU Bo5: Laroxyl vs spies Laroxyl has been solid
RBY OU Bo3: BlazingDark vs NotVeryCake Cake is a very strong player and i don't see her losing this one
RBY OU Bo3: Bedal Roscoe vs Mysterious M Both players are doing well so it could go either way
RBY OU Bo3: seraphz vs Bedschibaer I'm just gonna bet on the player who's doing well
RBY OU Bo3: TheStupe vs virae Thestupe is the safer pick but eh, I don't think virae is going 0-3
RBY Ubers: NDK vs YBW Battle of the three letter names, I think YBW takes this one cleanly though
RBY UU: Fc vs User [738106] Fc should be winning this one but we'll see
RBY NU: hammer798 vs Click>Think Click did pull off an upset last week by playing very well, but I still want to believe in hammer Highlight
BY PU: PHB11677 vs hex Not super confident on who will win this one tbh
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Prussian-Jaeger vs royzin royzin has the experience edge and that goes a long way in rands

:articuno: Glacial Articunos (6) vs (4) Deadbeat Dugtrios :diglett:
RBY OU Bo5: RealJester vs Ctown6 I mean it's ctown, like what do I have to say
RBY OU2: phoopes vs Kristyl two 0-2 players but I do think kristyl will win
RBY OU3: Gamebooadvanced vs LB Idk who lb even is, but gba is looking good this season
RBY OU4: Quarante8 vs oakdeon These two players should make for a great match Highlight
RBY OU5: tr0mb0ner vs BIG WILL idk these players very well
RBY Ubers: Premonitions vs betathunder betathunder has subverted my expectations so I'm gonna bold
RBY UU: Teh vs FighterFrog I'm kinda 50/50 on this one, I think it will be a good match though, at least as good as uu can be
RBY NU: BeatsBlack vs Sotina I think this is a solid matchup but beats is still clearly ahead in my eyes
RBY PU: Volk vs Inazuma-Fulgur Volk is still the goat
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Kingslayer Caterpie vs Mikon I almost bolded ksc, but like, it's mikon Highlight

:mankey: Pampu Primeapes (7) vs (3) Indigo Illusion :alakazam:
RBY OU Bo5: Serpi vs Ulti Bastion I'm not gonna bold him but lowkey I think Ulti can win this Highlight
RBY OU: KeshBa54 vs King Billu I'm not too certain of who will win so I'll just throw out my blind jab
RBY OU: Melbelle vs TPM Surely Mel isn't going 0-3
RBY OU: Corvinus vs Justamente give me the guy with results
RBY OU: Deezcastforms vs alidakiller Even though he took a loss deez has still got this
RBY Ubers: The Strap vs pixie909 it could go either way
RBY UU: pac vs Mrbanana45 I'm gonna keep betting on pac
RBY NU: THE_CHUNGLER vs yimb Chungler lost last week so the rng gods are not going to let him lose this one, he's just gonna 1/256 dodge every attack
RBY PU: boomp vs Zpice I think zpice is a very good player
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Zcarlett vs Lady Writer I know I'm betting against the odds here but I'm doing it anyways
 
Seen enough in first 2 weeks now to start making (slightly more) reliable predicts

:articuno: Glacial Articunos (5) vs (5) Deadbeat Dugtrios :diglett:

RBY OU Bo5: RealJester vs Ctown6 - HL matchup. Most hype west coast battle since Ice Cube vs Eazy-E. Both had rough starts but I have more faith Ct0wn will turn things around faster
RBY OU2: phoopes vs Kristyl - Kristyl is better
RBY OU3: Gamebooadvanced vs LB - Hate to predict against my compatriot but Gameboo is cooking so far
RBY OU4: Quarante8 vs oakdeon - All French Magmar battle, hate to bold against either. Oak a lil sharper rn tho
RBY OU5: tr0mb0ner vs BIG WILL - Will is def good, was impressed by Nicks efforts last week vs Ama tho
RBY Ubers: Premonitions vs betathunder - Always knew beta was very dangerous and he's off to a good start whereas Prem has a very high ceiling but hasn't come close to it yet. This could be a banger
RBY UU: Teh vs FighterFrog - V Happy FighterFrog is doing well, Teh will be too tall an order tho
RBY NU: BeatsBlack vs Sotina - Could copy/paste Ama's reasoning here. I completely agree
RBY PU: Volk vs Inazuma-Fulgur - Hope I'm wrong bcoz i love inazuma but I think Volk is 55/45
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Kingslayer Caterpie vs Mikon - Someone laughed at me when I said KSC > Soup over Bo7 pre tournament. LW beat, Soup beat. Who's laughing now? That being said a locked in Nessa is the best in the pool imo

:mankey: Pampu Primeapes (4) vs (6) Indigo Illusion :alakazam:

RBY OU Bo5: Serpi vs Ulti Bastion - Love Ulti and he's certainly capable if he brings his best but yeah Serpi is the best player in the tournament
RBY OU2: KeshBa54 vs King Billu - HL matchup. Close call I think Billu edges it in 3
RBY OU3: Melbelle vs TPM - Another knifeedge one, 2 very good players for OU3 think Casino Boi sneaks it.
RBY OU4: Corvinus vs Justamente - 0-2 vs 2-0 but even without the records based on the plays pablo is levels above rn
RBY OU5: Deezcastforms vs alidakiller - Great start for alida, I think Deez played well and got unlucky against a strong MM last week tho and should have too much
RBY Ubers: The Strap vs pixie909 - Great win for pixie last week. Still think Strap is better tho
RBY UU: pac vs Mrbanana45 - hate to bet against my goat pac, this is rlly tight. Think Banana is bringing better teams rn tho
RBY NU: THE_CHUNGLER vs yimb - Not seen anything of yimb games tbh and the Ghungler has the God combo of great player + RNG blessing
RBY PU: boomp vs Zpice - Zpice is better, Boomp is bringing much worse teams too
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): Zcarlett vs Lady Writer - Tough start for LW still got a ton of quality tho and surely this week breaks the duck

:ninetales: Nine Inch Ninetales (5) vs (5) Saffron Haymakers :hitmonchan:

RBY OU Bo5: violet river vs Amaranth - HL matchup. River has been rlly impressive so far and Amaranth kinda struggled vs a sub, in a Bo3 I might bold River. But over Bo5 I think Ama has enough quality and guile to see him off
RBY OU2: anesidora vs oligen1 - Anesi is good but I am biggest oli glazer since Kaz
RBY OU3: magialice vs SoggyBagel64 - Alice should've started from the off
RBY OU4: Spoiledberries vs MGdos16 - Mgdos solid so far, I rate berries tho
RBY OU5: Padeli vs Nimrra1 - Padeli has lowk looked strong for a relative newcomer too
RBY Ubers: Sabelette vs Samu77 - Rough start for Sab; a combo of atrocious RNG and some misplays here and there. Far too good to go 0-3 tho
RBY UU: evakiyama! vs ThatOneApple - very impressed by eva week 1 however Apple is best in pool
RBY NU: Toxin Boost vs Duke Sux - Yeah I'm just bolding Toxin against everyone
RBY PU: Plague vs ButtGallon - Gallon too good to 0-3 too
RBY Random Battles (Best of 7): blundergoth vs MrSoup - Once bgoth realises sacking mons and not leaving most of ur team at 30% is kinda necessary in RBY rands there's a huge potential. Soup is very good tho and will have too much class
