It's User of the Year, but with Pokemon! And, y'know, a modified format, to fit the bajillion entries. I could use help with votals!
-Rounds are posted whenever I get to them, daily-ish.
-Regardless of when they are posted, they will last 24 hours unless stated otherwise (ie they might overlap)
-No alt-voting
-No being a jerk
-No deleting posts, this will be enough of a headache to count already.
-No changing votes, see above.
-One Pokedex number, one entry. I believe that means you get Paradoxes, but not Megas, -maxes, regionals, and Formes. You are welcome to factor that into your vote, or not, however you wish.
-I will never vote, but I will serve as the final tiebreaker, including in seeding.
-If you're muted by Para, or me, or whoever else is counting votes that day, that's rough, buddy.
-I can modify these rules however I want. Don't be the reason I do so.
-Please put extra effort into normal formatting and correct spelling so that the spreadsheets work properly!

ROUND 2 RULES
-Please use the spelling and formatting from the vote form
-Simple 2v2 matches.
-26 Pokemon received a bye.
-The 11 teams with the strongest performance (Vote differential, then total votes, then I break ties between teams, then order within team) receive R3 byes.
-Remaining teams are seeded for R3 by the same procedure
-730 Pokemon enter, 378 Pokemon leave

I like at least one poke in most of these pairs! Apologies to Thievul. Match 3 is the roughest, I like both Falinks and Weavile much more than I do Primarina, but Bewear is slightly above them all.

Holy crap, this is a difficult day. Ended up anti-voting Walking Wake and Torchic, and resigning myself to the fact that Paras and Primarina are probably doomed anyway.

Mudsdale > Kyogre > Torchic > Thievul
Paras > Kingambit > Sandile >> Nincada
Primarina > Falinks >> Weavile > Bewear
Ariados > Houndstone > Dhelmise >> Walking Wake

I would vote both halves of matches 1/3 over both halves of matches 2/4.

I'd have to think about Paras/Nincada v. Thievul/Mudsdale, but mostly agree

Match 1 is a bit difficult. I don't feel super strongly about any of these guys, but I do have some nostalgic fondness for Kyogre.

Rough draw for the bug babies, but Kingambit is cool and Sandile is top baby.

Bad draw for Primarina. Don't want to be mean to it, but ... Falinks, guys .... Falinks .............

Ghost types stay winning. Dhelmise is so cool ....... ..

Not an amazing day but I'm happy to see two Pokemon that make me very, very happy.
