@everyone of smogon, pokemon showdown, and @MANNAT’s loyal youtuber followers, I have an announcement to make.

If I lose ONE more time, I will release logs that will result in Smogon’s Biggest Scandal of All Time. This will include the bans of Bushtush, Star, SoulWind, and ez. Shame everyone doesn’t know what I know.

TheFranklin I would be careful of what you bring this week. I suggest bringing a Dartrix and Herdier or something of the sorts.
 

Bushtush

Banned deucer.

TheFranklin please bro. Don't let me go out like this. Just bring a Dartrix. But if I do go out like this so help me god I will put your family home up for sale on facebook marketplace. You have been warned

better late than never???

Circuit Breakers (3) vs (7) Orange Islanders

SS OU: damien the genius vs mind gaming - tbh i never understood what the whole damien the genius meme was about. i asked some australians and i still dont get it. maybe itd be funnier if he was better at pokemon. mind lost an offense vs offense to xrn last week with some early overpredictions which puts his ability into question at least a little bit. i mean did he really expect xrn to double out the moltres vs pult? maybe he should start reading my predictions
SS OU: H.M.N.I.P vs TPP - tpp has made some interesting choices in the builder this season. his ideas are decent but i think theyre poorly executed. what im trying to say is i would have more confidence in him if he brought boring teams every week. altho in this matchup that should make him harder to read for pietro and whoevers helping him w teams. close one, i'll go with tpps consistency
SS OU: devin vs Sage - looks like sage is back after sacrificing raizen to london beats last week. cold move but i can get behind it, i wouldnt wanna lose to london in her position either. this week shes facing devin, whos returning after a short hiatus that I imagine had something to do with him saving blunders career by donating him a win in a pretty easy matchup. luckily for him that isnt the most embarrassing choke to sd excadrill anymore thanks for taces game vs bea. still, not gonna bold him
SS Ubers: Lunala vs Exiline - tony did a number to lunala last week. i trust exiline to finish the job
SS DOU: Tenzai vs JRL - tenzai got his second win in a rollercoaster of a game last week. still not sure if his opp mismanaged the endgame or he just got lucky. regardless of that, neither of his wins have been as convincing as jrl's and his teams are pretty boring
SS UU: Fakee vs pdt - fakee exceeded my expectations last week with a strong game against the scariest opponent in the pool. and while he suffered a crushing defeat in the endgame due to a few mistakes of his own, it cant be more crushing than what tricking had to say after the game. im sure everyone has seen the logs by now but good lord even i am nicer when criticizing other players, that was cold. and then he slots him right back in the week after? i hope he wins by some divine intervention because pdt is another very tough opponent
SS RU: Punny vs Ajna - ok at one point i gotta stop predicting ajna to win. he seems very out of it this season, according to the secret jerk his teams arent doing him any favors. punny should be like god at lower tiers so thats a wrap
SS NU: etern vs Nat - if nats game from last week lasted just a few turns more im sure we wouldve seen a full breakdown from her. i dont blame her cause that was an unfort endgame but she must still be tilted from that. eternally would be a good opponent to regain some ground from but something tells me it only gets worse for nat
SS PU: Scottie vs mncmt - i'll give scottie some credit for not letting leru farm the pu pool (lol another reason why this should be replaced w mono). ig mncmt won last week to prove he isnt complete trash but given how lopsided this week looks i doubt we will see him play until next week
SS LC: LilyAC vs boulicrok - still the bkc of lc, surely he wont lose 3 in a row. lilys ok tho i have nothing to say about her

Uncharted Terrors (4) vs (5) Indigo Platoon

SS OU: Twixtry vs MichaelderBeste2 - michael suffered a tragic loss last week. i think he got too comfortable with his style and brought the most predictable team ever, which u cant afford against pietro probably. twix looks like a better opponent for him since he could just bring the same 8 mons he uses every game and twix probably wouldnt see it coming. this is a close one, i'll take the better player but not by much
SS OU: xavgb vs ez - its gotten hard to predict against ez ever since he started crowdsourcing his wins to ng. i'll give him some credit for believing in the power of friendship or something because I still cant find any other explanation as to how yuze juan and co are performing this well in this tour. stresh caught an embarrassing L last week so that doesnt help his case
SS OU: Eternal Spirit vs Finchinator - finch put on quite the show last week. ive seen speculation regarding who couldve possibly came up with the idea of necrozma against punny but honestly it sounds exactly like the kinda thing finch would come up with and convince himself is good. great stuff. under normal circumstances i wouldve probably still bolded the magician, but ive changed my mind given recent events. in fact i dont think im bolding him again in this tour. maybe for his next magic trick he should get a better personality instead of being such an insufferable asshole. i hope he gets washed
SS Ubers: Fogbound Lake vs Tony - fog played a solid game last week with a suicune but tony obliterated lunala so gotta bold him
SS DOU: Nails vs Z Strats - nails has been playing like god. in terms of teams and play i would rank z strats second out of everyone in the pool so this is an exciting one
SS UU: Lyss vs TDK - i guess i might as well get in line to dickride tdk at this point. hes been pretty consistent with his teams and play, maybe if the uu pool wasnt as pitiful he would struggling a bit but by the looks of it i doubt he finishes worse than 7-2. i like lyss but i dont see her winning this
SS RU: Feliburn vs McMeghan - already happened, probably wouldve predicted mcm
SS NU: Kushalos vs GXE - i think kush is supposed to be better
SS PU: sensei axew vs Leru - i remember sensei axew was kinda mid in uu but this is pu so it should be much easier for him to thrive, which can be seen in his games recently. i thought lerus slightly more competent but he got absolutely embarrassed last week so mayb not
SS LC: Acehunter1 vs tazz - tazz is owning

Arena Spartans (4) vs (4) Showdown Shoguns

SS OU: Relous vs Chaitanya - 2 players that should retire already. flip a coin
SS OU: March Fires vs CTC - ctc played kinda fire last week but then reminded everyone hes still ctc by sacking the wincon and losing to watashi. march proved he can farm clowns so this should be no different than last week
SS OU: Ewin vs blunder - blunder let what wouldve been a convincing win against the second best player in the pool (individual player that is) slip out of his hands with a premature attempt at setting up mew. that would usually deter me from predicting him to win but ewin got farmed by bea using his fathers trusty hail. cant get worse than that
SS Ubers: SiTuM vs crying - im starting to think cryings team choices do her more harm than good. regardless i appreciate some creativity in this stupid tier to i hope she finds the right nu mon to bring this week. maybe she should ask marcop
SS DOU: Animus vs Ninja - ninjas a good player, maybe i overestimated him a bit in doubles but he looks capable enough to beat animus
SS UU: Lily vs Poek - already happened but i probably wouldve bolded poek. surprise
SS RU: TheFranklin vs lax - cool matchup. franklins games have been the polar opposite of what u would expect from someone called the franklin. lax lost to his disciple but hes still a tough opponent. close one
SS NU: Charmflash vs Gilbert arenas - already happened but i was hella bolding margod
SS PU: Lambovino vs reyscarface - good lord what a game last week. reys ability to play pokemon might be directly proportional to the volume of his beard and the size of his biceps. lamborgini fed jon another sheet win so i expect nothing from his at this point. even managing to outplay rey for 1 turn would impress me and probably his managers too
SS LC: daunt vs vs Bushtush - i guess bush really needs those sheet wins cause hes back in lc playing the weakest player on the opposing lineup. it cant get more embarrassing than this. bush should just sub out at this point, have some self respect

Studio Gible (4) vs (6) Power Plant Dynamos

SS OU: Xrn vs Shafofficiel - i mean xrn did win last week against a dangerous opponent but if u ask me that was more of a case of mind outplaying himself and xrn inadvertingly stumbling into a win. i guess thats what happens when 2 mediocre players face each other. shaf didnt even play last week but enzonana got beaten so badly i feel like thats gotta count against him at least a little. i guess xrn again?
SS OU: ayk vs Gtcha - i dont get the ayk hype, ive seen his games and he looks really lost when his mu isnt favorable. another overhyped player that will probably miss the mark. i would be surprised if gtcha lost this without luck
SS OU: TJ vs bbeeaa - no beef this time but a cool matchup between 2 former teammates. i think tj has been humbled enough so far but he might as well lose this for good measure
SS Ubers: Fc vs SoulWind - fc is one of the least terrible ubers players but ive realized this barely counts as a tier, its like the rby of scl. could go either way but sw is the better player overall
SS DOU: Frania vs Spurrific - spurrific played a hard game last week, it looked like he never quite recovered after a bad turn 1. i think franias been playing alright, i'll take him for this one but i would be very pleased to see him lose
SS UU: bb skarm vs KSt3ve - last week ksteve tried his hand at what ou players would call a prediction but he chose to stay in with a pert turn 1 vs a zarude so that went as well as u would expect. skarm lost in a pretty disappointing manner but i still rate him fairly high in this pool. 60-40 or something
SS RU: Mac3 vs BIHI - well mac3 did end ajnas career after all. who wouldve guessed. it would be pretty funny to see him continue to put down more established players in this tier but i think bihi is bouncing back here
SS NU: aim vs Meri Berry - u cant be serious with these names lmao why is it always the mainers man
SS PU: ProDigeZz vs jonfilch - i dont have a good analogy for jon farming the unsuspecting pu pool with set up spam ho but the gist of it is he should be a man and play ou. his opponent doesnt inspire much confidence either
SS LC: kythr vs Welli0u - nothing to say here but gut tells me well wins this week and makes some stupid post calling himself the chief or whatever, as if he didnt just lose like 10 weeks in a row in lc
