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

Feraligatr or Garbodor was a hard choice. Other three divisions easy picks.

Golisopod/Mimikyu (Tapu Lele is probably my least favorite Tapu, while Mimikyu is awesome)
Sharpedo/Feraligatr (Garbodor is awful, and Crawdaunt is just an inferior Water/Dark to Sharpedo)
Drapion/Boltund (Rayquaza is awesome...but Coalossal is very much not. Meanwhile, Drapion/Boltund are solid.)
Quaxly/Chi-Yu (And then this is a match-up somehow. I don't really care either way, but Gen I/II can afford to lose some fodder.)

I love Boltund and hate Drapion, deciding between some of these teams will be interesting lol. Ended up voting for them mainly because I expect Boltund to get blown out and don't want it to look too terrible.

Golisopod is cool, Mimikyu is one of my all time favourites. Easy vote here.

Garbodor is another all time favourite + three water types I rather like. Easy vote here too.

Drapion carries my vote here. Not big on the other three.

Pretty alright first stage starter and one of the coolest legendaries. Easy vote here as well.

Aside from the third match, I didn't even have to change the order. Coincidence, or am I extremely basic?

to be fair that IS the order of seeding, although teammates are right next to each other

okay this is a really interesting format, this probably isn't the way i'm most happy with but considering the lack of a total ranking method, i think i just have to choose the pair that has "my favorite in the match" in it. so like, match 2 is my sixth favorite and a top 100 mon versus the winners with my third favorite and someone kinda in the middle this is fucked up

Tapu Lele > Electrode > Golisopod > Mimikyu
