Ebail vs Weirlind

Ebail: Scizor, Infernape, Nidoking, Chandelure, Milotic
Weirlind: Heliolisk, Haxorus, Scolipede, Gastrodon, Salamence, Charizard

Scizor immediately destroyed Heliolisk with Superpower, taking very little damage in the process.
However, Scizor switching out due to it's stat disadvantage allowed Haxorus to set up a Dragon Dance.
Then for an unknown reason, Weir switched Haxorus out in favour of Scolipede.
The battle was fairly back and forth from here, until Ebail's Milotic proved way too bulky for Weir's less-than-favourable randoms to take down.
Haxorus eventually managed it, but Scizor cleaned up.

With max-sleep rolled on Rotom-Frost in the first turn of the battle, Lilligant began setting up.
It found a couple more opportunities to Quiver Dance later, and couldn't be shutdown by randoms.

Mikey vs Ralin

Mikey: Larvesta, Paras, Turtwig, Skitty, Minccino, Monferno
Ralin: Zorua, Mudkip, Togepi, Monferno, Budew, Alolan Grimer

Almost 8 hours of basics thanks to me having meetings and Mikey/Ralin playing League.
In all that time the only noteworthy event was Togepi getting back-to-back Ancient Power rises but it sucks so much that +2 was still useless.
The Monfernos did all the work, Mikey's eventually winning the surprisingly close battle.

Dash vs dp876

Dash: Hydreigon, Froslass, Gyarados, Mamoswine
dp876: Muk, Froslass, Primarina, Lycanroc, Metagross, Breloom

This match started out pretty evenly, with Muk, Hydreigon and the two Froslass trading close blows.
Gyarados didn't have much that could touch Primarina, and it was dispatched by Moonblasts.
From this point on however, it was all Mamoswine, as DP tried to switch around but didn't get any useful rolls.
An Icicle Crash flinch on Breloom shut down any last hope.

dp876: Donphan, Clefable, Froslass, Primarina, Typhlosion, Beedrill

This was pretty close through the first half of the match, with a lot of status and slow brawling.
If not for Blaziken, and DP's last random being Beedrill, I think this could have gone right down the line.
But, faced with a Speed+2 Blaziken and nothing to throw at it, DP forfeited.

Muk's bulk set up an early lead for DP, especially with it's type advantage over Togekiss.
The tail end of the battle was fairly even, but VJ wasn't able to recover the gap.

VeloJello vs Ash K.

VeloJello: Serperior, Metagross, Manectric, Togekiss
Ash K: Vespiquen, Azumarill, Hawlucha, Serperior

A close match overall. Serperior switched out to a lucky Metagross roll to avoid Toxic, but Vespiquen stalled it down with Infestiation and Heal Order.
Azumarill did nothing due to paralysis, Hawlucha making up the gap with Mud Sport and Drain Punch.
The two Serperior's faced off, Ash's losing the mirror duel but paralysing VJ's in the process.
This allowed Vespiquen to return and clean up.

The usual situation where randoms couldn't respond to Gray's Pokemon.
Altaria and Cradily spent forever setting up, but Cradily Sleep-Talking Spit Up cost it stats and it went downhill from there.

GrayMagicGamma vs DarknessRuler

GrayMagicGamma: Swampert, Mr Mime, Togekiss, Whimsicott, Mimikyu, Charizard
DarknessRuler: Jolteon, Starmie, Espeon, Salamence, Golduck, Primarina

Pretty interesting match and some pretty good teams for randoms.
Despite the initial Swampert vs Jolteon matchup, not much happened and both players just set up.
The threat of HP Grass forced a switch and initially it looked like DR might take the lead.
Gray was forced into a lot of tricky plays to maintain ground, with DR responding in kind and both players switching around quite a bit.
In the end Gray's strats narrowly paid off - Whimsicott was the big playmaker as the last mon standing, taking a Healing Wish from Mr Mime and eventually cleaning up DR's remaining Water and Dragon types.

Sou: Ribombee, Mawile, Starmie, Meowstic, Absol, Talonflame

Fun battle with both of them rolling Ribombee.
Overall Sou didn't really make any bad plays, the rolls just didn't really turn out in her favour.
Mawile got destroyed by Gliscor, and Weir stayed slightly ahead all match.

Morru: Scolipede, Alakazam, Salamence, Incineroar
CowboyJake: Dragonite, Dusknoir, Politoed

Despite Morru's otherwise pretty good randomly rolled team, the type matchups just weren't in his favour.
Scolipede got Hurricane'd, Alakazam fell due to it's lack of defensive stats, and Politoed easily cleaned up with Ice Beam and Surf.

Flygon ran away from Sylveon pretty quickly, which Politoed was able to take down thanks to back-to-back flinches on Waterfall. Gallade got some stats up and without more EM's SinnohEevee wasn't able to shut it down.

Pretty close match, Weir's Whim started strong, Clefable was rendered useless by Garchomp's Iron Head flinches.
Scolipede made up a bit of ground and it was even from here. At the end Weir elected to forfeit rather than try to take down Altaria with a crippled Whimsicott.

Ace Trainer Liam: Mamoswine, Aerodactyl, Medicham, Comfey, Crabominable, Ludicolo

Liam took an early lead when Mamoswine froze Venusaur on the first turn. This gave Aerodactyl the advantage, able to take down both Gengar and Excadrill.
Clefable proved to be quite a bit of trouble though, setting up Sub, Cosmic Power and healing itself a couple of times while frustrating Liam's Pokemon.
Under time pressure, Liam chose to forfeit.

GrayMagicGamma: Azumarill, Altaria, Kabutops, Primarina, Mawile, Swampert
SinnohEevee: Sceptile, Togekiss, Parasect, Arcanine, Glaceon, Raichu

Pretty good match, SinnohEevee starting out with several good plays between Sceptile and Togekiss to deal with Altaria, Kabutops and later Primarina.
Stealth Rocks, when I remembered them, were an issue for SinnohEevee's Arcanine and Glaceon, and prevented Togekiss from returning at all.
Combined with a few missed opportunities to take down Mawile, this let Gray regain any lost ground, and Swampert was able to take out the remaining opponents fairly easily.
