- Who is the BEST Pokémon trainer? I used Artificial Intelligence to find out. This is the BIGGEST Pokémon Tournament Ever - The World Tour! 256 trainers, 1 massive bracket! To find a winner, I used AI to battle NPC teams on Pokémon Showdown.
In this video, we're up to our Final 16 competitors. Who will advance to the Quarter Finals?

The Finals should be premiered live so everyone can watch them together, that’d be dope!
I know he used to premiere them live. Don’t know why he stopped
All I've got to say about the Sabrina/Wally match is that they call Focus Blast Focus Miss for a reason.
Imagine if just 1 of her Pokémon used fire against that magnezone instead of fighting. Slowking with fire blast probably wouldn’t have done it still though
When I saw the flutter mane come out I knew AI Turo’s fate was sealed
When I saw the 4/5 crits I knew something was up
So in the quarters we have:
- A battle of the first two champions
- A battle of two characters that were only side rivals but became more popular than the main rivals
- the queen of Sinnoh vs the seemingly unbeatable power of Paradox Pokémon
and then the last one has two characters barely anyone has even heard of before 💀
o7 to Saguaro's meme team, you fought well
Riley vs. Blue was match of the tournament. Also, my god did Sabrina get bad RNG on those Focus Blasts.
Focus Miss never hits.
So glad Saguaro made it this far! I know he was a surprise underdog, but c'mon. Us VGC players know that the underdog with a Pachirisu is NOT to be overlooked.
Alright. Live reacting to this:
Bump for spoilers
Bump
1. JESUS CHRIST BLUE YOU NEARLY LOST. YOU SQUEAKED THAT VICTORY AND THAT'S ABSOLUTELY NUTS. But also, I feel like Riley kind of got here by accident. His pseudo-legendaries are what kept him going. But HOLY SHIT BLUE YOU NEARLY LOST HERE.
2. Agatha got close! If there was anyone who was going to take down Lance, it has to be Blue. This seems like a "fated" battle. But Agatha did get close. She K/Oed two of his dragons!
3. Unfortunately, this one was going to be a sweep. Gladion had exactly two Pokemon that can easily K/O Poppy's team. If she could take those out, she had a good chance to win. But this wasn't the case, and Gladion completely destroyed her.
4. WOW THAT IS BAD LUCK. Sabrina should have absolutely destroyed him, but never hit a Focus Blast. That's just supremely bad luck for her, as Wally just swept right through.
5. Maylene had a great team. Fire, Grass, Bug, Steel, Psychic, and Fighting types that are all also fighting. But Kamado had just enough type advantages (And that Braviary tho) to score enough of a victory. I'm glad she made it through to now, but I don't think this was a fair fight for her.
6. Saguardo was an amazing trainer and it was kinda luck that he got this far. But Somek had a bunch of pseduo-legendaries and really... Was there any doubt he'd get through?
7. Well, I'm glad they're facing off now and not in the finals. Seriously. How is anyone supposed to beat Sada? Her team is INSANE. It may as well be 6 legendaries. But I highly doubt anyone can beat her. Unless...
8. I honestly don't know why I was worried. Cynthia AGAIN wipes the floor with her opponent without even losing more than 3 Pokemon. Well done.
So yeah. Either Cynthia or Sada will win. Maybe Blue pulls a victory out of nowhere? But that's all. I sincerely doubt there's anyone else.
The effort and conviction put into this comment is everything. Thank you for your service
People always underestimate Wally.
ive been staring at this comment for days in my notifications going i know thats right you just wait!!! new episode up today@@PSRJ1921plus2153
That week of wait felt a bit longer than expected... LET'S GO!
It’s crazy how good Somek is considering his team was designed for Double Battles.
Not surprising considering he use that many pseudo legendary
I like how each of the quarterfinals are thematically fitting matchups.
Indigo Plateau champions.
Rivals with something to prove.
Big burly guys.
Imposing women with absolutely cracked teams.
It all works out so well.
I also thought Spinoff Characters.
@@moonjelly5 That’s true! That makes Kamado vs. Somek work even better.
Pre-match commentary: HYPE! We have 16 really strong trainers here! Ihn the first quarter, we have Blue as the best team composition, Riley as a pseudolegendary spammer with a busted team, Lance as a dragon spammer, and... uh... Agatha? If Agatha wins this I swear... Anyway, I'm gonna go with Blue over Riley, Lance over Agatha, and Blue over Agatha. Blue vs Riley is insanely close, and the winner of this match is my favorite to get to the finals, but I'm going with Blue here because double intimidate has the chance to really annoy Riley's physically oriented team.
In Quarter 2, we have a steel type trainer who will burn to any fire types, a pretty legit Sabrina, and two incredibly solid, well balanced teams in Wally and Gladion. I'm gonna go with Wally over Gladion here, but I don't think Wally can beat Blue.
In Quarter 3, we have Maylene with a really scary fighting type squad, Kamado with a bulky offense balanced squad, a random chef, and a pretty scary representative from Orre. Somek destroys the Chef, but Maylene/Kamado could go either way. I actually think Maylene can do it! Unfortunately, I think Maylene will run in to a hard wall against Somek, who just has too much physical bulk, resists, and intimidate to get scared by Maylene. Going with Somek here!
Then Quarter 4, oh man, quarter 4. Both AIs, Cynthia, and another champion. Kukui is outclassed here and has no shot, but honestly, any of the other three could come out on top. Turo's my pre-tourney pick to win it all, so I'm sticking with that, going Turo over Cynthia. I'll be cheering for our Sinnoh champion though, I'd love humanity to be able to come through with the win!
If everything goes as I predict it, I think AI Turo beats Blue in the finals. LETS GO! Match commentary will be below!
...
Blue vs Riley: Well that match delivered! What a comeback by Blue! I thought he was out of it but Arcanine delivered!
Lance vs Agatha: I was hoping. I was almost convinced. But Lance was just too strong. Agatha's Gengar deserves some MVP votes as most valuable pokemon in the tourney, it has carried her otherwise bad team so much farther than it should have.
Poppy vs Gladion: Poppy finally ran in to a fire type. Then ran in to a fighting type. Enough said.
Wally vs Sabrina: That was clean. Sabrina ran in to the limits of relying on focus miss.
Maylene vs Kamado: Wow, Maylene was close! Heracross can easily ko snorlax if facade is a ko there! I think Kamado has a very good chance to get in the final four now, his team matches up vs Somek much better than Maylene's does.
Chef vs Somek: Everyone still in the tourney is a good trainer now.
AI duel: RIP Turo. That was not nearly as close as I expected. Not entirely sure what happened here, but Turo got off to a bad start and never really recovered.
Cynthia vs Kukui: The sinnoh champ is good. She just outclassed Kukui there.
Final thoughts: This round struck down the pretenders, and everyone left is legit. Of the remaining trainers, I think Lance, Gladion, and Somek are a step behind the other five. With my pick out, I'm switching my pick to Sada to win it all, but she's gonna have her hands full vs Cynthia. We're down to the final 8, and I can't wait to see it!
Other than Saguaro losing, this is a pretty hype top 8, considering all of the trainers that we could've had. I wasn't expecting it but Wally has been cool to watch this whole time and is my pick to win, yes, even over Cynthia
Saguaro did better than I thought he would.
I'm noticing A LOT of Salamence, Garchomp, and Lucario users in these rounds.
I honestly think the bout between Cynthia and AI Sada will decide who will go to the finals in that block.
Luckily for Cynthia, AI Sada’s Fluttermane doesn’t have any Fairy Type moves.
The Blue v Cynthia rematch is still a possibility LETS GO!!

That Blue win was so close
AI battle was great, but showcased how much stronger Scarlett paradox mons are
Excited to see elite 8!
It more showed that in a full team versus against each other the scarlet ones have the better matchup as in general violet does have the better ones all together
Wow focus blast missed so many times.
Hence why we call it "Focus Miss"
I really thought Blue would lose with all those misplays, but he managed to win in the end.
Sabrina's match was heartbreaking. I thought losing alakazam like that was bad and then the rest of the match happened.
SPOILERS
Sabrina got screwed over by those focus blast misses. I personally think that she wouldn’t have won even if they hit, but 3 in a row was brutal
Wally would have crushed her regardless, but it still sucks.
Ahhhhh yes, my favorite move in Pokemon.... Focus Miss.

I really expected Riley to win, since Gen I has been powercrept a lot. Still Blue managed to pull through!
No surprises on Gladion, Lance and Wally.
Kamado was closer than I thought.
Somek is a menace, holy lol
Sada and Cynthia to no one's surprise.
I really believe that AI Sada will make it. She's just too potent, and both Blue and Cynthia get either countered hard or just overpowered
oh man, the quarterfinals is looking to be some FUN matches. two kanto champs who have canonically faced off before, two strong rivals, one edgy, one wholesome, two guys who... honestly don't really have any similarities in character but both have some big, bulky, beefy boys on their teams, and the two girlbosses of the century
So, let's look at the top 8.
1. Gen 5 and Gen 6 are nonexistent. I don't know how that happened, but it did. Gen 6 I get, but Gen 5 has some absolutely stacked battles.
2. The Champions of Gen 1 and 2 are a nice welcome. If you ever felt like Pokemon got more powerful over time, these two should show you that the older mons (Lance's team having two Gen 5ers not withstanding) still have something worthwhile. And Blue having a trick up his sleeve for almost any fight is nuts.
3. Two "rivals" from Gen 3 and 7 are fascinating, as you'd think some of the other rivals would have shown up, but Wally and Gladion have powerful teams.
4. Kamado and Somek are... Weird. How the hell did they get here?
5. The AI making it this far is not surprising. I keep wondering if anyone can take her down.
6. All hail Champion Cynthia.
It's funny how Gen 6 in nonexistent in the Top 8 or even in the Final 16 considering..... they're not even present in the Top 32! Kalos's best trainer was Wikstrom with 17 KO's landing approximately in 39th place.
Unova had a solid chance of representation though with N and Ghetsis. If only AI Sada and.... Saguaro didn't screw them over.
I wish Riley had made into the Top 8 but the fact that Blue managed to build the best team he possibly could with only Gen 1 and Gen 2 is definitely worth commemorating. Bro is defying power creep left right and center.
Somek obviously made it into the Top 8 because of his two pseudos and other powerful Pokemon. As for Kamado... wait how did he get here?
The only trainers who I think have a decent shot at taking down AI Sada are either Cynthia or Somek. I don't see any other trainer taking her down. Not even Blue.
It'd be cool to see Cynthia make it further but Top 8 is still a very commendable position. Even the Final 16 is a quite honorable position to make it to.
@@clothieredward5248 I think if Cynthia can defeat the AI, we can retire her permanently. She is truly the strongest of all time.
The base stats for Somek's team are disgusting. Literally just Gen 3 OU: the team.
Diantha hadn't her mega evolution. And her AI sucks. And even without that, Diantha Lost her gardevoir because Bad luck (critical hit). I think Diantha had all to be in the top 16 and to fight Wally (and probably to lose against Wally).
this tournament has been a blast i have enjoyed it so much cant wait to see whats next
Imo you should do a 3rd place battle between the losers of the semifinals before the final match to have a proper podium
Saguaro won first place in our hearts.
Me personally I reckon that the finals will come down to a battle between Cynthia and Wally
If I wasn't watching this at the gym I would have been cheering out loud for Riley 😓 I really wanted him to pull out the upset against Blue, his team was one of my favorites.
I think at the moment I'm rooting mostly for Wally and Cynthia. Wally because he's probably one of the ultimate underdog stories in Pokemon (and because a final match with his ORAS theme would be dope as hell) and Cynthia because Sinnoh's what I consider my "home" region and also mommy
Wally really had Plot on his side
cynthia fans are going to be sandy shocked when she gets decimated by sada in the final
Turo would've had a better match-up Vs Cynthia with Moth, Bundle and Valiant IMO
@@k2basior sada has sandy shocks
@PieRatQueen I've faced a sandy shocks before with my Cynthia team on Showdown, and Roserade handles herself quite well against it. If the battle falls that way.
However, as much as I want Cynthia to win this whole thing. I do think Sada will beat her and cheese the rest of the tournament
@@tommytittle1992This is a really hard fight for Cynthia. I feel Scream Tail will probably knock out Roserade and if she and Lucario fall, this will quickly snowball.
Flutter Mane too stronk
@@tommytittle1992 i guess she also uses roaring moon and flutter mane which combined can basically destroy her entire team
Maylene switching in to something 4x weak to flying when she had thunder punch available was very painful to watch
It was Choice locked to high jump kick which deals 1/4 damage to hisuian braviary.
@@pokedad23 ah, I missed that. Clean switch fodder I guess?
I'm cheering for Wally! I honestly didn't think he'd beat Sabrina, let alone destroy her like that. I dunno that he can win, but I'm rooting for him!
I am too. I felt he had a good chance as Alakazam and Espeon are frail and have no answers to priority (Like Azumarill's Aqua Jet and Talonflame's Brave Bird). Sabrina also has the worst Metagross set I've ever seen (it's all special).
3 focus misses in a row, it wouldve been much closer if just one hit. But i guess thats what happens with high risk/reward sets
@@moonjelly5 One on one, I think Sabrinas Slowking could take out Talonflame and Exeggutor was made to defeat Aurmarril. If the match was redone and her starting luck was not garbage like here, then I can see rounds where she wins against Wally.
I was here, remember my words.
wait, what were your words again?
Sabrina vs Willy was the greatest robbery in the history of pokemon lmao
I think that was more a speedup of the inevitable than a robbery. The fight ended when Alakazam got paralyzed as her team relied entirely on being able to outspeed and one-shot the opponent.
@@moonjelly5 she switched into Alakazam for no reason and then missed three focus blast in a row. It would have been tough but I think she would have won without the RNG dooming her
@@riccardocirielli We're going to have to disagree on this one.
I do know from experience that Alakazam and Espeon have no answers for priority and would be vulnerable to Aqua Jet and Talonflame attacks. It would have been closer if she didn't miss though.
@@moonjelly5 One on one, I think Sabrinas Slowking could take out Talonflame and Exeggutor was made to defeat Aurmarril. If the match was redone and her starting luck was not garbage like here, then I can see rounds where she wins against Wally. Probably still around 55 to 45 percent chance in Wallys favor.
@@Prisoner-gk6lr Possibly, but I think speed is still a major weakness of her team and I think Wally has more ways to deal with her than she has with him. Magnezone is also an issue for Slowking.
Dang it Saguaro.
Tbh, he did pretty well with his shit team against Somek's stacked team.
R.I.P. Pachi.
Spoilers below for Sabrina v Wally

I mean, you could say Wally dominated, or you could say that Sabrina had the worst Focus Blast luck of all time
Oh Brina...
Presuming Espeon had Magic Bounce and Shadow Ball, which it should, Sabrina would have been better off to duke it out with it against Magnezone from the start instead of the shit show that followed. Victory for Sabrina would have been hard to achieve with Wally's good team but not impossible had it not started in the worst possible manner.
Sheesh... Sabrina got robbed so hard lmao
Can't believe Sada took the win in the divorce.
But neither took the kid...
My predictions for the top 8 battles:
Blue def. Lance
Gladion def. Wally
Somek def. Kamado
AI Sada def. Cynthia (with all of the pain from my heart)
Gladion def. Blue
AI Sada def. Somek
AI Sada def. Gladion
Battle 1: The Indigo Plateau Champions
Battle 2: The Rivals
Battle 3: The Final Bosses You Fight at the Top of a Mountain (Mt. Coronet/Mt. Battle) (aka The Mountain Men)
Battle 4: The Femme Fatales (AI vs Human)
Will you do a battle for 3rd place as well? It may be a good way to fill out the video.
Focus Miss!
Sada and Cyntia could be a finals match! I think the winner of that could just take it all!!!
ive been waiting for this all week
Betting on Kukui to take the entire thing!
With Cynthia around? As if.
And if Cynthia isn't the one to stop him, the AI Professors definitely will put him in his place.
Truly an unfortunate way to end his trip in the finals.
I like him, but I don't think he can make it past Cynthia or the AI's
Spoilers:
I called 7 of these correctly. I only missed Maylene v. Kamado and I felt that one could have gone either way in predictions.
My prediction for the finals:
Blue v. Lance: Blue. Lance has coasted through on base power alone, but here is where his lack of technique finally catches up with him.
Gladion v. Wally: Wally, His team is so much better than Gladion's.
Kamado v. Somek: Somek. This one will likely be the closest battle (on paper), but I think Somek's flying types give him the edge.
AI Sada vs. Cynthia: AI Sada. Cynthia is strong, but Sada's team is stupidly broken. Also, Cynthia doesn't have many answers to Fairies (Roserade is physically frail and Lucario can revenge kill, but can't switch in safely on anything and is easy fodder for Slither Wing).
Blue v. Wally: Blue. Wally will be Blue's 2nd toughest opponent, but Blue is more balanced and has the better move sets.
Somek v. AI Sada: AI Sada. Somek's mon's are bulkier than Sada's and hit hard, but his mediocre move sets and her Speed will carry the day.
Wally v. Somek: Wally. His team is really good and will likely survive Somek's onslaught.
Blue v. AI Sada. This is Blue's toughest fight and I don't think he will survive it. The Paradox mons will be too much for him.
Winner AI Sada
Considering that Cynthia is an archaeologist, no one would be more fit for defeating her than Sada. No one aside from Turo are also more fit for defeating Sada. I find that match to be a toss up. Her team composition is just extremely good. She is a famous terror in the pokemon community for a reason. Sada is one of the few trainers that actually have a chance against Cynthia and a quite good one too. I say the flutter mane will be her biggest challenge and Cynthia’s togekiss would be Sada’s greatest obstacle.
Sabrina got robbed😂 i guess that happens sometimes lol
Gen 3 represeting a good number of the top 8!
I hope in the future we might see a version with double battles. Really curious how things would play out differently in doubles.
IM SO EXCITED
The majority of the battle in the Final 16 ended up how I expected with a couple of exceptions.
It looked like Riley was going to take the W, but Blue managed to revenge kill half of Riley's team which was a shocker.
Lance beat Agatha with a bit more trouble than I expected.
Poppy got defeated by Gladion thanks to Silvally and Lucario.
Wally annihilated Sabrina's team which I did not expect. I thought that if Wally took advantage of Sabrina's secondary typings, he might've stood chance, but I didn't think he had it in him to beat Sabrina. Way to go!
Kamado beat Maylene thanks to his Clefable, Ursaluna, and... Golem?!?!?
Saguaro's luck ran out against Mr. Pseudo Legendary (aka Somek).
AI Turo got shut down by AI Sada once again (thanks to Uber staple Flutter Mane).
And Cynthia didn't struggle that much against Kukui.
As for who I thnk will take the crown of the World Tour, my bets are on either Lance, AI Sada, or Cynthia.
I am praying that Cynthia can defeat the Flutter Mane and in turn dismantle the rest of AI Sada's team but the reality is it might just be too much for our favorite champion.
But who knows? We'll find out what actually happens in the Final 8 next week which is pretty much the finale to this epic series so.... see you then.
The final 16 was very predictable, but that come from behind win by Blue (especially him) and Lance was something to see. IF Riley sent out his already near dead Ursaring and saved Absol for last he may have won if Arcanine used close combat on Ursaring like it did here he may have pulled an upset.
Dang... Spoilers:
Cynthia cooked Kukui like he was nothing.
12:21 Sucks to be Sabrina, missing all her crucial shots despite her impressive showing in the prior matches, going up against the future winner of it all no less.
ua-cam.com/users/shortsEPQYFo6TNLU A quick fitting vid of how it feels to be Sabrina right now.
Alright let us see how Cynthia can stand up against Sada's paradox OP mons.
1. Slither Wing (Bug/fighting): Her Togekiss should easily kill it and spirit tomb is a safe switch just in case.
2. Scream Tail (Fairy/Psychic): This one is a little challenging. Spirit tomb's dark move is quad damage, but weak to fairy as well. Roserade the same situation. Lucario could do damage as well with a steel move.
3. Brute Bonnet (Grass/Dark): Lucario should destroy it with close combat. Togekiss strong as well.
4. Sandy Shocks (Electric/Ground): Garchomp is strong here. Lucario knows earthquake, but earth power will use that focus sash.
5. Flutter Mane (Ghost/Fairy): Like Scream Tail a little challenging. Lucario is needed big time here. Ghost resist poison so Roserade isn't the best. U can use Spirit Tomb, but again with the fairy type being the only weakness is tough.
6. Roaring Moon (Dragon/Dark): Cynthia absolutely NEEDS Spirit Tomb to Will-o-Wisp here to deal with that stupid Energy Booster item. After that Lucario's close combat will do well or Milotic's ice beam.
Who to start with and what she should start with: I believe the AI will start with Lucario as it has been the whole tournament and I kind of agree with it. Lucario can technically deal with 5/6 of her paradox mons really except for Slither Wing. The one thing I worry about is that it will make focus sash unusable afterwards. I believe Sada will send out either Scream Tail or Flutter Mane.
All I can say good luck Cynthia and I hope u beat all these busted paradox mons.
SPOILERS:
Somek W is all I needed to see
i HOPE that Wally wins it all, but i THINK Sada will.
Honestly i felt like turo just trew
I don’t really see Sada losing sadly. Roaring Moon and Flutter Mane are too good. I would love Cynthia to come out on top though
Comments for each battle, my favored for each round will be bolded, before I start watching the battle.
Blue vs *Riley*
Both setting up, Guts vs D-Dance. Not surprised Ursaring wins this, as unlike T-Tar, he can hit for supereffective. 5-6
A couple switches before Blue gets an important KO against Salamence with his Exeggutor. 5-5
Riley immediately revenge-KO's with Absol. 4-5
Two more switches, and a missed Focus Blast gives Riley's Metagross an important KO against Alakazam. 3-5
More switching, and Gyarados gets the KO against Garchomp, but Garchomp bruises a few of Blue's team on its way out. 3-4
Lucario with the revenge. 2-4
Machamp takes a heavy hit, but back to back D-Punches take out Lucario. 2-3
Metagross eats a D-Punch and revenges, but is now confused against Arcanine. 1-3
Arcanine Teras to Fire and revenges. 1-2.
Arcanine eats a hit, but avoids the crit and OHKO's Absol. 1-1
Arcanine outspeeds and finishes off the badly bruised Ursaring, giving Blue the victory! What an excellent comeback victory for Blue, by such a narrow margin!
*Lance* vs Agatha
Lance starts with Hydreigon, which is easy pickings for Gengar's Fairy coverage move. 5-6
Gengar eats an EQ from Salamence, surviving with Sash, and fires back two more Gleams. 4-6
Dragonite eats a Gleam, losing Multiscale, but takes the opportunity to D-Dance and then KO. 4-5
Crobat manages one flinch before going down to D-Dance boosted Outrage. 4-4
Weezing takes a ton of damage, but lives and finishes off the injured Dragonite. 3-4
No setup, Haxorus goes straight for Outrage. 3-3
Haxorus takes a couple Shadow Balls and some confusion damage, but still drops Al-Marowak. 3-2
Arbok's intimidate buys it one hit from Haxorus, enough to finish it off after eating a weakened Outrage. 2-2
A couple switches, ending with Flygon and Mismagius trading blows til Flygon goes down first. 1-2
Kingdra Tera-Dragons, then wipes up Mismagius. 1-1
Continues the cleanup with Arbok, giving Lance a closer than expected win! Lance managed to overcome an early disadvantage and bring the pain to Agatha. Lance vs Blue is going to be a VERY interesting battle! Blue doesn't have any great anti-dragon Pokemon, but maybe he can pull it off.
Poppy vs *Gladion*
Gladion opens the battle with a brutal OHKO from Fire!Sylvally, possibly setting the tone for this entire battle. 5-6
Silvally takes an EQ, but continues its rampage. It's weak, but it may have already secured him enough advantage to win. 4-6
Magnezone eats a heavy shot before finishing Silvally off, but the Salac berry might let it do some serious damage before going down. 4-5
Weavile chips away at Corviknight, but goes down unceremoniously. Not much use against Poppy, so not a bad move by Gladion. 4-4
Zoroark disguised as Crobat gets one hit on Corviknight before they both go down to Brave Bird. Poppy seems to have stabilized for now. 3-3
Spoke too soon, Lucario OHKOs Orthworm. 2-3
Lucario OHKOs Copparajah. 1-3
And finishes off Magnezone, giving Gladion a very comfortable victory. I imagine the type specialists are going to be filtered out in this round, facing good, varied teams.
Sabrina vs *Wally*
An *incredible* start for Wally, paralyzing and taking down Alakazam without taking any return damage. 5-6
Magnezone gets put to sleep, but due to some lucky misses, wakes up before taking damage and takes down Slowking. 4-6
Magnezone takes serious damage, but takes down a THIRD Pokemon of Sabrina's, this time her Metagross. I'd be shocked if Wally lost from this position. 3-6
Espeon gets revenge on Magnezone, but the damage may already be done. 3-5
Azumarill takes heavy damage but still brings down Espeon. 2-5
Switches to Talonflame, preserving his Azumarill and effortlessly takes down Exeggutor. 1-5
Talonflame recoils itself down but still scores the win for Wally as it does so, defeating Sabrina in a *dominant* display. Wally vs Gladion is going to be a slugfest, but I think Gladion's Silvally might be the lynchpin that gives him the edge to win out.
Maylene vs *Kamado*
Maylene loses Lucario early to a slugfest with Clefable. 5-6
Medicham gets revenge, keeping things even. 5-5
A switch to Hitmontop against Golem, but trips the Weakness Policy and loses the Hitmontop. 4-5
Medicham gets revenge c-c-c-combo! 4-4
Maylene throws her Breloom away for no reasons on a switch against Braviary, then just switches BACK to Medicham after. Stupid. 3-4
Deals heavy damage, but goes down in one shot. 2-4
Infernape gets revenge, but used Overheat to do it, wasting its white herb. 2-3
Infernape and Ursaluna trade heavy blows, with Infernape going down. 1-3
Heracross Tera-Fights, gets revenge and triggers Guts, 1-2
Kamado's Heracross is faster and wins the duel, giving Kamado the victory over Maylene. She fought well, but the outcome is unsurprising.
Saguaro vs *Somek*
Saguaro paras the Gyarados early-smart!-and sacs Pachirisu to do it. 5-6
Froslass and Gyarados trade blows, and Froslass wins out. 5-5
Froslass burns Slaking-ALSO smart!-and goes down. 4-5
Slaking switches out, Salamence trades shots with Vespiquen and wins. 3-5
Alomomola Aqua Jets for revenge KO. Saguaro might have a shot at this! 3-4
Alomomola absolutely *devours* Giga Impacts from Slaking as they trade blows, with Alomomola winning. 3-3
Metagross cleans up Alomomola. Ouch. 2-3
Metagross OHKO's Hatterene, who Saguaro sent out for some reason into a bad type matchup. 1-3
Metagross beats Goodra, giving Somek the unsurprising win. His team isn't elegant, but it IS powerful. He will be a dangerous enemy for anybody. Somek vs Kamado should be interesting, but I have a hard time imagining Somek losing with his team of heavyweights.
*Turo* vs Sada
Heavy blows both ways, but Iron Valiant loses to... Scream Tail. Okay. 5-6
Scream Tail hits hard, but Iron Hands cleans it up. He might be able to stabilize. 5-5
Flutter Mane gets the revenge. 4-5
Flutter Mane continues to clean up, beating Iron Moth without taking too much return damage. 3-5
CONTINUES to dominate, OHKOing Iron Bundle and still standing. 2-5
Badly hurts Iron Thorns before going down. Not sure how Turo comes back from this. 2-4
Iron Jugulis trades shots with Sandy Shocks, but wins. 2-3
Roaring Moon gets the quick KO. 1-3
And then cleans up, giving AI Sada a very comfortable victory. The Paradox Pokemon are just... SO strong. They're all just slightly weaker than Pseudos.
Kukui vs *Cynthia*
Ninetales deals some damage, but Lucario OHKOs to give Cynthia an early lead. 5-6
Incineroar comes out and trades heavy blows, getting the KO but being near KO itself. 5-5
Incineroar switches away from Garchomp, sacrificing Braviary to Cynthia's apex predator. 4-5
Magnezone deals a chunk of damage, but goes down all the same. Cynthia appears to be running away with this battle. 3-5
A lucky Paralyze lets Snorlax KO the Garchomp, but it has taken heavy damage in turn. He's not stabilized yet, but the beast is down. 3-4
Spiritomb burns Snorlax and injures Lycanroc before going down to Stone Edge. Kukui's team is all badly bruised, and Cynthia's back half are all completely fresh. 3-3
Milotic takes a good hit, but KO's the Lycanroc. Cynthia might just close out this battle with Milotic. 2-3
Snorlax just can't do meaningful damage to Milotic, letting it Recover back up and be reasonably healthy after KOing it. 1-3
And Milotic cleans up, giving Cynthia the win over the Alolan Professor. No surprise there, but now she's facing the Paradox Pokemon next round. I worry they'll prove too much, but Cynthia will always have my vote of confidence.
Jesus Focus Miss is insanely bad at hitting
Aaaw that first match was so close. So disappointed that Riley lost
Wonder if the OG pokemom cynthia will beat the newest pokemom AI sada cause i feel like itll most likely come down to those 2
Spoilers!!!
Wally didn’t dominate. Sabrina had some unfortunate luck with all those missed focus blasts
This is so hype
Would be cool to see the winner of the whole things face off against Ash's World Champion team (of even the team of the recent World Championship in Japan)
I'm telling you. Somek's gonna win it all.
SOMEK SWEEP
i wish he started this series a week earier so we could have it be finished today
I’m in this one 1:48 ! #flygon
#flygon
I think the AI Sada will win, but Blue, Gladion and Somek wil likely prevail their blocks as well
Me before: I hope someone can break Cynthia's plot armor. I'm not a hater but i always on the side of the wildcards. But if she wins she should be banned next time.

Me after: Wally dominated Sabrina? Come on it was the miss with stupid Focus blast that made her lose. Gosh i never use low accuracy moves bc of it.
Yeah well Cynthia's opponent was Kukui. I didn't have expectations for this match.
I hope Somek wins this Tournament. If he wins you can't replace Colloseum characters with S/V DLC Characters anymore.
I have the obvious answer in the piano queen herself but who I want to see win is Wally
Somek beating Sanguaro was the upset
I fear for cynthia going up against ai sada
I always knew AI Sada had the better team even though the Robot Pokemon looked cooler
If Riley’s absol had sucker punch, he would have defeated blue. Also, all those misses from Sabrina. She could have done a lot better or even won if she didn’t miss every single focus blast. Or in this competition, focus misses. AI Turo’s plays were terrible. He could have taken out scream tail so much sooner and should have saved iron valiant for roaring moon. He could have had a real chance.
Also that drill peck he had on iron bundle. That was a horrible play.
EXCITED
Spoiler:
Fight 1: YES BLUE LETS GO. Impressive to win here! Arcanine was incredible!
Fight 2: Its funny that our Ghost Type Specialist has more Poison than Ghost Types but ok....
The flinch with Crobat really saved Agatha in the Beginning
I think Mismagius wouldve carried with Dazzling Gleam but a deserved W to Lance
Fight 3: GLADION AND XERNEAS/YVELTAL MUSIC? I ALREADY LOVE THIS
Silvally with the DOUBLE KO and 86% on Magnezone
AND LUCARIO WITH 3 KNOCKOUTS
Poppy got DESTROYED
Fight 4: wtf Focus Blast just missed 3 Times
Magnezone DOMINATING with 3 Kills and a lot of Luck
Wally obliterated Sabrina
Fight 5:
FACADE DOING 99% LOL
gg
Fight 6:
The Double switch into Slaking felt smart (Hex)
Alolamolamola just killing Slaking
Saguaro was too weak GG to big weird guy
Fight 7:
Hope this Match will be EPIC
Turo just wasted Valiant....... HIS ACE
WTF DRILL PECK ON FLUTTER
Turo is stupid af
First smart move by Turo: Jugulis into an Earth Power
W to Sada, Turo was stupid
Fight 8:
MOST EXCITING MATCH FOR ME
THAT DRAGON CLAW, she predicted the Switch
MAGNEZONE INTO GARCHOMP? WHY ? YOU HAVE SNORLAX
Cynthia dominated GG
Really good Matches!
Turo was simping for his ex and decided to give her a free win😂
Let's go Somek!!!!
Go Blue! I was on the edge of my seat for his battle, it was so close. Will there be a play-off for 3rd?
Yes
IM CHEERING FOR KAMADO 😤😤😤😤
Does Focus blast have an above 0% hit rate? (This is a joke)
As far as I’m concerned, anything below 85% accuracy has a 0% hit rate.
Wich AI did you uses for this?
Man, Sada beat Turo like i beat my wife.
...
Wait, that came out wrong.
Cynthia vs Sada gonna be good.
She has a worst bracket tbh. even if she manage to beat Sada, the next match will be against Somek
spoilers
Not one of Sada's opponents has been able to hold a candle to Flutter Mane and Roaring Moon. As much as I love Cynthia, she'd need some great luck against Sada. Roaring Moon is too stronk.
Glad Wally bested Sabrina though. Hoping he makes it to the finals.
*Spoilers*
RILEY COULD'VE WON AGAINST BLUE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Literally so close. Why did he send out Absol before Ursaring??? The defense drop from Close Combat would've been more than enough to get Night Slash to kill.....
I didn't see that. But you're right! Riley could win. But Blue could beat ursarink without close combat. And so arcanin's défense would be intact.
The AI fight makes me even saltier that N lost to Sada
Our Boy had no chance.
@@moonjelly5 I dunno, N almost took down Sada, and Sada steam rolled Turo
@@johnworley5694 He did almost have her. Unfortunately, like Lance, her team is so strong it can survive imperfect play, whereas N had to play perfectly to win.
Wally will win
I Want Gladion to win so bad
Thoughts:
Battle 1: Blue wins as expected.
Battle 2: The Lance/Agatha battle was close. Glad we’re gonna see a Kanto-Johto Champion Showdown in round 6.
Battle 3: Gladion murdered the steel Elite Four child with a diverse team.
Battle 4: Wally is gonna be a threat in the quarters after defeating Sabrina.
Battle 5: Maylene killed it in this round, but wasn’t enough to defeat Kamado and his Hisuian squad.
Battle 6: Saguaro, that bracket matchup was killer. He’s gotten decimated by Somek.
Battle 7: Sada won just like in the paldea tourney.
Battle 8: Well obviously, Cynthia wins, but will she win against Sada? We will find out.
So far, hoping for a Blue win for the championship, but Wally, Cynthia (if she wins against Sada), Somek, and especially Sada are gonna be big threats in the quarters, semis, and finals.
the groups of Quarter finals are perfect groups
We Have: (Spoilers)
Champions of Kanto
Rivals without starter
Spin-offs
AND MOMMYS!!!!!!!
I was rooting for babygirl but he really never stood a chance u_u rip Saguaro you're the champion in my eyes
Same energy as Viola last year. Man Route 1 bugs have never looked so good before

Swear to god if Cynthia wins this was a waste of time
Praying for Cynthia’s Downfall 🙏
Kamadobros we can do this
She can fall in the semis - i want her to take out the ai menace first.
HERESY!
@@MiudmonDiceI don't think anyone can.
I get it, but Kukui has little chance. The AI on the other hand.
