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.

Rapid Flow has so many of my favourites in, Dreepy does not deserve to only get a +1 and I have a soft spot for everything down to Gigas. Praying Finneon won't get absolutely destroyed today but I don't hold out much hope.

Edit: Clarified what I voted for Dreepy to not confuse the vote counters
Perhaps the golden rock was inside us all along.

Oh wait, I missed Regigigas I would've given it -3 lamo. Oh well. Wasn't hard to minus in that division for me. I think both division has great Pokemon at the top but also a bunch of easy minuses.

I appreciate the weirdo design philosophy of the regis and think their unified aesthetics are actually pretty distinct. I'm only giving salamence +1 because I've used it SO much; I think I've trained 6 different ones over the time I've played VGC? That's a lot of salamences. Sunflora is the first pokemon that didn't look like a pokemon to me; it has the aesthetics of a cartoon ad for raisins circa 1972

First group is pretty great. I have positive opinions of Reshiram and Yanmega even though I couldn't + them. Finneon is spared from -3 due to being in Snap.

Second group ranges from apathetic to dislike and I'd like to give out more -s. Braixen is spared from -3 due to my strong(er) dislike of Dreepy.
