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 1 RULES
-Give +3, +2, +1, -1, -2, and -3 to Pokemon however you see fit.
-There are two divisions per day to do this for.
-Please use the Easy Vote form.
-Bottom three scores per division are eliminated (most divisions, 7/10 survive, but there are a few 11-mon divisions that will send 8 through)
-However, the top 11 scores from 8th (or 9th, in the bigger divisions) place finishers will survive.
-Top 26 scoring winners will receive a bye next round.
-1,025 Pokemon will enter, 730 will leave.

The first time I saw a toedscool run away from me on its stupid legs, I lost my shit so completely that I couldn't even follow it. Easily the best 'convergent evolution', if you can call it that (you can't)

Dondozo and tatsugiri are a super clever combo. Did you know dondozo's tongue is a sushi board?! Neato!

Extremely stacked division for me. I actually like Burmy. Look at his weird little face! He's such a weird little guy. I really like Flareon and Sandshrew but they're too basic to earn my votes here. I don't dislike Bewear but something had to take a -1

ELECTRIFY

Also pretty stacked! Had to forego Froslass to give Veluza some love, I just like him. Audino is one of my fave mons that nobody else likes.

Way too much NFE garbage in the first division; in a better group I should be giving Bewear negative points.

On the other hand I want to upvote nearly everything other than my bottom 3 in the second division. Nidoking is an honorary gen 5 Pokemon, Veluza is a cool fish, and Audino is the original EXP sponge. However Tympole is one of the funniest NFEs ever (incidentally something that I would also say about Toedscool, who is entirely uncontested up there).
