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
