(....with the way seeding works, though, the wild card race is essentially for bragging rights >_> They'll get into round 2, but then get matched up against stuff that won divisions with scores in the mid +50s or thereabouts <_< so like picture two of those guys against a team of Snorlax and Growlithe)

also, Cubone probably getting the #1 rank for this round is extremely amusing to me It definitely isn't something I would have predicted, but it does kinda make sense. It was by far the strongest Pokemon in a fairly weak division, and it was in one of the first rounds when the votals are naturally going to be higher. That said, I wonder if a round 2 bye may end up kinda being a disadvantage for certain Pokemon. I assume they won't be eligible for a round 3 bye, which will definitely be the harder round to survive, when they probably would have crushed their round 2 opponents. I wouldn't be surprised if we end up with an overseeded round 1 bye that gets a bad draw and ends up eliminated in round 3. --- --starfox2245 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Get ready for the most insane results of the contest: Thousand Arrows Division 39 Dubwool 35 Wattrel 34 Abra 14 Stunfisk 9 Geodude -3 Pheromosa -6 Nincada -17 Arrokuda -44 Karrablast -61 Blipbug Weather Ball Division 46 Sableye 40 Rapidash 3 Machamp (Tiebreaker?) 3 Drakloak (Tiebreaker?) -13 Diancie -14 Shuppet (Tiebreaker?) -14 Relicanth (Tiebreaker?) -16 Amaura -17 Petilil -18 Heatran Incredibly close votes here - any of these six things could have gotten eliminated had any one person cast their vote differently. Heatran has by far the best lowest score in any division by a wide margin. Star of the Day: Sableye I could give it to Dubwool or Wattrel as well, who put up unexpectedly strong performances (I was mistaken in not giving Kilowattrel start of the day before) but I think Sableye gets it with a winning performance over Rapidash. Big win. Dud of the Day: Drakloak Drakloak was a top 10 performer in the gen 8 rankings so it barely scraping above positive digits here with very little competition has me baffled. This is one of the biggest duds of the contest imo. Pretty much everything in this division was a dud besides Sableye and Rapidash though. Fun fact: Stunfisk had 18 positive votes, 14 negative votes, and only 9 neutral votes. You probably feel one way or another about Stunfisk! ... Copied to Clipboard!
