UU MATCHMAKING V4
Art made by the magnificent lydian! Thank you again, it's great!
Ciao! (That’s hello in Italian c;) and Welcome to the Underused Matchmaking Project! I’ll be your host, Earl E. Bird and I’m glad to be running the show! I somehow found myself at a loss for words due to the current situation the tier is in...Our Pokémon are at a loss when it comes to relationships! We need to help them! I would like to see all of you do your best to help find our friends their most suitable partners!
Lets get to a more serious overview of the project. Every week, I will give you a Pokémon from the VR Rankings that need a partner, and your job is to find the best partner! You can only submit one, so make sure you find the right one for the job! Please list a specific, viable set for our partner! This way, your submission can really help out people building teams and it gives us a better perspective to judge your submission on!
Submission phase will last for four days, and voting for two days. If you manage to win, give yourself a pat on the back! Your name and post will be linked in the Matchmaking Hall of Fame (that’s a bit of a mouthful huh). At the end of the project’s lifespan, the winner will be crowned the Matchmaking King, a glorious title to hold! Wishing you all the best and happy posting :)
Rules!
If you are new to Smogon or don't know how to do all of the fancy things, take a look at the posting guide linked here!
Example Response
(using an example from the RU thread just so we have more mons to use)
Golisopod @ Heavy-Duty Boots
Ability: Emergency Exit
EVs: 172 HP / 252 Atk / 84 Spe
Adamant Nature
- First Impression
- Aqua Jet
- Spikes
- Knock Off
Golisopod is able to pivot in on fighting-types, as well as Zygarde if it tries to revenge and set up spikes which greatly help Obstagoon with breaking. Obstagoon carrying knockoff help with removing HDBs from the opposing team as well, which helps Golisopod. These form a great core for offensive teams, providing a breaker as well as hazards and priority.
HALL OF FAME:
Week 1 - Thundurus-Therian:
Week 2 - Choice Specs Keldeo:
Week 3 - Choice Band Buzzwole:
Week 4 - Nihilego:
Week 5 - Crawdaunt:
Week 6 - Rotom-Wash:
Week 7 - Rhyperior:
Week 8 - CB Scizor:

Week 10 - Choice Scarf Mienshao:
Week 11 - Mew:
Week 12 - Lycanroc:
Week 13 - Thundurus-Incarnate:
Week 14 - Pelipper:
Week 15 - Nidoking:

Rules!
- To submit a partner for our young lovebirds, you must decide who will be best suited for our bachelors/bachelorettes. Give us a 2-3 sentence explanation of why, we want to know why you think this way and it gives you a way to justify your answer!
- Reservations are allowed, but must be completed within 48 hours of posting! After this time, other participants are allowed to take these cores so be wary!
- In order to encourage creativity and more originality between submissions, the same Pokemon CANT be used more than once for the same round.
- Please do not try to manipulate or rally voting. It really ruins the point of the project and we’ll have to ban you from participating in the project if you’re caught, so just don’t do it :)
- You may not vote for your own core, please vote for someone who you think is deserving!
- Last but most important: have fun! This is the purpose of the project after all, as well as providing a good resource for teambuilding!
