Total Pokemon Unova awards

Welcome everyone to the Total Pokemon Unova awards! There are 10 categories and 30 awards total. A bronze award means you got the 3rd highest amount of votes. A silver awards means 2nd highest, and gold means you got the most votes for that category. Gold is the one everyone wants, just like the Olympics.

Also in case you forgot, here are what the abbreviations stand for (the teams)
VSS: Victini Searing Shots
KJS: Keldeo Justice Swords
MRS: Meloetta Relic Singers
GDA: Genesect Drive Arsenal

First category is "Most Heroic Player", and the nominees are

Axew-yymastaconfuctious(VSS/GDA)
Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999(MRS)
Joltik-ShinyStoutland(GDA/MRS)
Keldeo(Resolute)-Franky494(KJS/MRS/GDA)
Scrafty-redfrog45(KJS/VSS)
Snivy-LolliPopGirlMeow(GDA)
Vanilluxe-DoubleJEspejwan6(GDA/VSS)
Zebstrika-TheZappingZebstrika(MRS/VSS)

And the awards go to:
Bronze: Vanilluxe-DoubleJEspejwan6
Silver: Zebstrika-TheZappingZebstrika
Gold: Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999

Congratulations Bouffalant, you won Most Heroic Player. Zebstrika and Vanilluxe, congratulations as well.

Second category is "Most Villainous Player", and the nominees are

Axew-yymastaconfuctious(VSS/GDA)
Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999(MRS)

And the awards go to:
Bronze: Swanna-kevandkeith42120
Silver: Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999
Gold: Leavanny-masterofflam

Well Leavanny, whether you like it our not, this makes you the villain of Total Pokemon Unova :P Interestingly significant amounts of people considered both Bouffalant a Hero and Villain. And even though Swanna didn't get too far in the merge, guess his reputation from previous camps in the series lingered.

Third category is "Best Social Player", and the nominees are

Axew-yymastaconfuctious(VSS/GDA)
Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999(MRS)
Cofagrigus-THEDKA3(MRS/GDA)

Zebstrika-TheZappingZebstrika(MRS/VSS)

And the awards go to:
Bronze: Cofagrigus-THEDKA3
Silver: Leavanny-masterofflam
Gold: Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999

The social aspect of the game really is important and it shows since the three people that earned awards made the top 5. Bouffalant, you won "Best Social Player", and congrats to Leavanny and Cofagrigus too.

And the awards go to:
Bronze: Axew-yymastaconfuctious
Silver: Vanilluxe-DoubleJEspejwan6
Gold: Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999

Another title for Bouffalant. It was no contest, he got over 2/3 of the votes for this category. Props to Vanilluxe and Axew too who also proved to be capable in challenges, and maybe if they lasted longer Bouffalant wouldn't have won as many, who knows? Also, one of Bouffalant's immunities was given to him by Axew in a twist in Elim 16.

Fifth category is "Best Strategic Player", and the nominees are

Axew-yymastaconfuctious(VSS/GDA)
Bouffalant-jacobwinner1999(MRS)

Of the 19 players who have won a vaporterra camp before this camp, 5 of them returned for this season (6 counting ForrestMightyena247, who won Total Pokemon Redemption Island as Marty's Porygon-Z, sorry I forgot to nominate you on the survey but I think the way it worked out is still reasonable). The nominees are

Beartic-BlackMagic622(MRS), (winner of Total Pokemon Black 2 as Quagsire)
Leavanny-masterofflam(GDA/VSS), (winner of Total Drama Combination as Sam)
Oshawott-TheLazySora(MRS), (winner of Total Drama Women's World Cup as Marta/Brazil, and Total Pokemon Outsiders as Shiny Girafarig)

Bronze: Oshawott-TheLazySora
Silver: Leavanny-masterofflam
Gold: Purrloin-dudeski7373

Purrloin played an excellent game in TPSC that didn't change much this camp and got him all the way to the final 6, so congrats on winning "Best former vaporterra winner". Congrats to Oshawott and Leavanny, too.

And finally, likely the most coveted and important category of all

BOUFFALANT-JACOBWINNER1999! You took the gold once again in the category that mattered most!

Axew-yymastaconfuctious, you get the silver award for that category.

Thanks to everyone who voted! Pm or comment your thoughts!

I will send interview questions to the top 24 players of this camp for the most part and I hope you guys answer them ASAP. Also time to officially reveal my next camp!

Total Pokemon Kalos!

We've explored 5 other regions and we've met 649 Pokemon, but that's not all there is in the Pokemon World. The Kalos region provides a setting that in many ways is very different than before! And there are two main groups of Pokemon that were introduced: completely brand new Pokemon, and Mega Evolutions of some old Pokemon, many of which were thought to already be at their highest ever stage.

In a region full of customisable player characters, beautiful cities, rollerblades, posh restaurants, Team Flare, and more, 28 new Kalos Pokemon will go head to head against 28 Mega Evolutions, and let's not forget about these 4 legendary Pokemon: Mewtwo, Xerneas, Yveltal, and Zygarde. These 4 Pokemon will be reserved for some strong players from Total Pokemon Unova and will be involved in the first twist of the season. So coming very soon is Total Pokemon Kalos. I will upload a signup video in the next few days. Don't ask to sign up until then.

Thanks for reading!
