Hello there and welcome to the SS edition of NU Matchmaking!
What exactly is Matchmaking?
Exactly as it sounds. In this case, it's finding a partner for a particular Pokemon. Let's face it, that one Pokemon on a team cannot sweep properly, set up properly, or just do the job it was meant for without another Pokemon to help it out. Its problems need to be dealt with so it can do its job. For example, a sweeper on your team would be lucky to run into a team that it completely obliterates. In most situations though, that's not the case. The sweeper will need a partner to remove those potential problems. That's where brainstorming ideas can come to life in this thread.
Let me explain how the thread works. Each week, I will pick a Pokemon for you to find a good partner for. This will usually start on Sundays. You will have until Wednesday evening to submit these potential partners for the one that needs the love. You are allowed to submit just one possible partner and no more. Once the submission phase is over on Wednesday nights, I will begin the voting phase at that point. This phase will go until Saturday night. All you need to do is vote for the best possible partner. Meaning, vote for 1 of the submissions. At that point, I will award 2 points to top vote-getter and 1 point to the 2nd best vote-getter. Both of these submissions will be archived and the users will be put onto the Top Cupid leaderboard.
The user with the most points at the end of a period of time of my choosing will be crowned the Top Cupid for that session!
How to make a match?
All you guys and gals need to is simply nominate one Pokemon that would fit with the one that I post. A set for your submission isn't needed, but a good explanation of how and why it works with the bachelor Pokemon is needed.
I will say right now that only Pokemon that are listed on the Viability Rankings will be considered and allowed. If an unranked/unviable Pokemon is submitted, I will have to ignore it and subsequently delete it. Reservations are allowed in this thread. You will have up to 24 hours to revise the reservation post into your actual submission.

You will have up to 24 hours to revise the reservation post into your actual submission.
I'm just going to reiterate the stuff above so it sticks
1) Pick 1 Pokemon and 1 Pokemon only that you believe pairs well with the bachelor in question. If I see someone posting more than 1 or a "this or this" thing going, I will have the mods delete it.
2) The Pokemon you submit must be listed in the Viability Rankings. If it is not, it will be ignored and not considered in the voting process.
3) Reservations are allowed. Once your reservation is made, you will have up to 24 hours to revise the post into your submission. I will be keeping track of times so please be responsible here. If your reservation is deemed unfulfilled, I will allow others to use it.
4) Have fun! This thread is going to be just that, so let's do it.
