Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

So huh, if Pikachu wins doesn't it mean Snake is guaranteed to get to the finals?

I mean SFF might not matter much against Sora but he's not Snake.

That said Pokemon has been so surprising this contest..

That's only because they thought ahead and are sacrificing both Pikachu and Squirtle to make sure Charizard is the only Pokemon in the finals.

Ah, Sora nearly stalled the final three minutes. Pikachu had to rob Blue of a healthy chunk of percentage within the board vote. I still like Sora here.

Wonder who they will abandon between Squirtle/Pikachu. Squirtle seems stronger, but people may go with Pikachu because he's the face of the series.

I expected better of Blue because he was more liked by Pokemon fans but I guess they were desperate and wanted to go with the one who they thought was more popular. Oh well. No two trainers with their Pokemon matches.

Competitive battling has truly honed their voting skills beyond all prediction.

Welcome to the League of Downtime.

Game, set, match.

It was really over last update though. This was the same as with Cloud last night- sure, Sora could win with normal trends, but it won't matter because Pikachu/Squirtle can rally like 5000 votes if they need to.

Remember that Pokemon fans will also have to split between Red/Charizard.

No. This isn't just the Pokemon fanbase's strategy. It's the Nintendo fanbase, ready to give Samus her championship.

I love Pikachu, but I have to vote for Sora if Squirtle even has a chance of beating Snake next round.

They really don't.

...oh, wait, if Pikachu wins this, then I want Snake to win next round. Save_us.draven, indeed. If Sora can't pull this off, I need Draven > Snake and Charizard (or Charizard > Snake and Draven, but I doubt that can happen.)
