Challenge 3 Progress Tracking and Results (Inter-Generation Unova Pokemon Connections)

This challenge was scored out of 10 points. Players that didn't do the challenge receive a strike but any players with strikes that did the challenge have their strike or strikes removed. (3 strikes=instant elimination). I list each contestant (Pokemon and Username) along with their score, the reason why they got points off (if applicable), and the Pokemon they picked as most similar to their own Pokemon (or the number of strikes they have if they chose not to do the challenge). Excused players earn a score of 0/0.
