Predicts:

Proud Pupitars (3) vs. (5) Flying Grumpigs
SV ZU: Monai vs avarice - Monai is really on fire
SV ZU: Danny vs JustFranco - Danny won't finish in negative
SV ZU: diegoyuhhi vs AstilCodex - Both aren't good pilots in my opinion (i had a lot of questions while watching tko vs Codex), but Codex at least won once.
SS ZU: Elfuseon vs TomatoZause - Elfuseon's SS is not convincing, unlike zause who is a tryhard.
SM ZU: outbackrabbit vs a fruitshop owner - wadley massively threw last week and got owned 2 weeks ago
ORAS ZU: gorex vs pokemonisfun - pif played that extremely well last week, while gorex (who still got unlucky) hasn't been doing well in ORAS at all for the past 2 years.
BW ZU: Xrn vs TPP - both didnt do as well as predicted, but Xrn cares more about this tier.
DPP ZU: Valerie vs LBN - I am really not impressed by Valerie.

Mighty Mycelium Marauders (6) vs. (2) Fiery Flamencos
SV ZU: Sylveon used calm mind vs hayedenn - beauts is not good at Pokemon
SV ZU: fish anemometer vs Lizardu'' - Liza has had a good run, but I do believe his plays are inferior to fish.
SV ZU: btboy vs 5gen - lol? i thought the totos wanted to make playoffs
SS ZU: Medeia vs Greybaum - Medeia beat clean, so rooting for her.
SM ZU: Finchinator vs Beraldo - Finch is very dominating
ORAS ZU: Toto vs Raichy - Raichy hasn't been doing well this tour, unlike Toto
BW ZU: Tack vs innovamania - inno's lucky charm has stopped functionning.
DPP ZU: Lunala vs Heysup - impressive showings from Heysup so far, I want to see him go undefeated

Shiiny Shiinotics (4) vs. (4) Dave's Dunsparce
SV ZU: tlenit vs Lily - wcop is over, so Mana has time to build now. Lily has been bringing very cheesy stuffs though, a lot of autolose and autowin matchups, so it's hard to predict.
SV ZU: love chants vs tko - can't believe Leru criticized one of my starter last week, when he got tko every week on the lineup.
SV ZU: LustfulLice vs Mana - Mana has been dominating except for that bad sleep roll talk last week
SS ZU: OranBerryBlissey10 vs dex - both have terrible seasons, but obb never clicked toxic on Pastel Veil Rapidash and will now stop throwing.
SM ZU: MZ vs Dj Breloominati♬ - MZ is more familiar with the tier and builds original teams every week
ORAS ZU: 5Dots vs Joya - more consistent player
BW ZU: MrSoup vs TDK - more consistent player
DPP ZU: JabbaTheGriffin vs BigFatMantis - BFM probably hasn't played a single DPP ZU game and Dave's DPP has been very weak so far

honestly not sure of what the tiebreak would look like? Lily, Mana, and TDK is a very powerful tiebreak core, but the building has been lacking in DPP and SS that Shiinotics might pick. Predicting Shiinotics to pick DPP and Dave's BW, and so:
Shiiny Shiinotics (0) vs. (3) Dave's Dunsparce
SV: tlenit vs Lily - same as above, could go either way
BW: MrSoup vs TDK - same as above, TDK with august and Mana support is very strong
DPP: JabbaTheGriffin vs Mana - Mana will learn DPP and win it, because Jabba has a serious tendency to throw

BW ZU: Xrn vs TPP - mags on top
DPP ZU: Valerie vs LBN - slight edge from everything i've seen

Mighty Mycelium Marauders (0) vs. (0) Fiery Flamencos
SV ZU: Sylveon used calm mind vs hayedenn - has been better this tour
SV ZU: fish anemometer vs Lizardu''- i will always predict fish no matter the opponent
SV ZU: btboy vs 5gen - i love to see svboy back and will personally root for him but i think 5gen has better odds

ORAS ZU: Toto vs Raichy - better this tour

SV ZU: tlenit vs Lily - go mags
SV ZU: love chants vs tko - better at zu
SV ZU: LustfulLice vs Mana - matchup of 2 players that have done very well so far but mana is the better pokemon player
SS ZU: OranBerryBlissey10 vs dex - obb hasnt looked great so far but i think he'll get his team this win
SM ZU: MZ vs Dj Breloominati♬ - i have to root for my mags sorry if i was unbiased i would predict this game the other way around.
ORAS ZU: 5Dots vs Joya - 5dots does not have that dog in him
BW ZU: MrSoup vs TDK - tdk has been quite a bit better this tournament
