Oblivion Wing Division
40 Sandshrew
28 Flareon
27 Furret
21 Spiritomb
1 Dialga
0 Bewear
-7 Toedscool
-10 Lairon
-33 Hatenna
-67 Burmy

Electrify Division
48 Nidoking
41 Froslass
17 Dondozo
8 Phanpy
7 Marshtomp
4 Garganacl
-14 Veluza
-16 Audino
-34 Baltoy
-61 Tympole

Star of the Day: Dondozo
These results are extremely boring, so I'm giving star of the day to Dondozo and you can't stop me. YOU tally the votes if you want somebody different here!

Dud of the Day: Lairon
Feels like a pretty harsh elimination but I think it's just due to a strong division. Only a -10 so he'll probably get a second chance I'd wager.

Fun fact of the day: Bewear got a 0! That's novel! Bewear HAD a 3 before I had to delete a vote that was too late. Fun fact: I won't be mad at you if you vote late but I WILL be mildly annoyed because I never remember to check the time.

18 Poliwag

7 Orbeetle
-15 Eelektrik
-24 Solosis
-36 Barboach

47 Totodile
23 Shaymin
13 Chi-Yu
9 Glimmora
-3 Slugma
-9 Rattata
-11 Sliggoo
-12 Tapu Lele
-14 Guzzlord
-43 Wurmple

Star of the Day: Buzzwole
Ultra beasts haven't done very well so far but Buzzwole gets a nice third place finish! (I'm not giving starters or gen 1 mons star unless they really earn it, fuck it)

Dud of the Day: Tapu Lele
That's probably enough to get a second chance, but ouch - both Tapu Lele and Guzzlord are real hard luck losers in this division.

Close Combat has to be the most packed division yet - -14 for the second-lowest placer is a really high score, and I can't help but feel even Wurmple might have advanced in another division and only did as poorly as it did here because there was nothing else to take the fall.

Slugma woulda gotten a +2 or +3 for me on most other divisions. Felt bad not being able to give him even +1 :(

32 Zigzagoon
4 Swinub
-7 Hitmonlee
-9 Hippopotas
-11 Mudbray
-18 Raging Bolt
-38 Stakataka
-51 Steenee

Leaf Tornado Division
47 Excadrill
42 Vulpix
33 Farfetch'd
27 Zoroark
-3 Starly
-9 Taillow (Tiebreaker?)
-9 Terrakion (Tiebreaker?)
-18 Snorunt
-36 Metang
-74 Aromatisse

Star of the Day: Excadrill
I guess I could have given it to either winner today but Excadrill had the steeper competition in two relatively popular gen 1 mons

Dud of the Day: Raging Bolt
Dude Raikou scored +58, people just do not like the paradox versions of these guys for some reason (I think they're cooler so I don't get it)

Fun fact of the day: Stakataka was on a whopping 37 out of 41 ballots! The thing is, 5 of those were +3, and there were some other positive votes in there too, so it didn't bottom out completely, it was just divisive but leaning negative. (I think Stakataka is cool as hell)

I don't normally openly complain, but my 1st, 2nd, and 4th favorite mons got eliminated in Hydro Cannon and my least favorite mon won, yeesh, we have VERY different opinions of what's cool today

I can't complain as I didn't vote for it myself, but it's sad to see Stakataka lose so heavily. Is Buzzwole the only UB so far to finish on a positive score?

Also poor Snorunt and Metang, but I'm very glad the birds both survived!

For UBs, I typically have a pretty high opinion of them. Not Stakataka, though. That one seems uninspired.

For Paradox, the future ones are mostly bad but the past ones are mostly good. At the very least, the names are great. Scream Tail.
