ZD Pokémon Sword and Shield (National Mode) Spring Festival - Finals Thread

[Terminus]

So, as we have half the matches done and no sign of them ever finishing, I'm closing the preliminaries and moving the top eight onward.

Teams will need to be submitted again as you are allowed to edit them before your first match in this round. Teams must reflect the updated banlist for NatDex (Specifically, Magearna). You are not required to change anything if your team is still legal, but you MUST still re-submit.

Please send your teams to @Spiritual Mask Salesman. Keep in mind the type restrictions. Any disallowed Pokemon participating in a given match will be treated as a forfeit. We do not expect participants to be checking teams mid-match, so any breaking of rules will likely be determined afterwards.

ALLOWED POKEMON: Any Pokémon that is at least partially Grass OR Water OR Fairy OR Ground.

BANNED POKEMON: Smogon NatDex Ubers, any Pokémon that is not at least partially Grass/Water/Fairy/Ground.

Good luck, y'all. Let's keep on top of these.

Spoiler: Preliminaries

I noticed that the final round has the “winner of losers bracket” in it, but you only have the one half of the bracket. Is the final 8 single or double elimination?

Double elim. I just didn't bother screencapping the second empty bracket.
