It's theCUBE, covering Sapphire Now 2017. Brought to you by SAP Cloud Platform and HANA Enterprise Cloud. Hello everyone, welcome to the special CUBE conversation covering SAP Sapphire 2017 in Orlando. I'm John Furrier here for special coverage. Our next guest is Margaret Anderson, Senior Vice President of the SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud. Thanks for joining me today, talking about the news and the relationship what's happening around Sapphire. A lot of great things are happening. One of the super exciting things that we're seeing is this notion of multi-cloud and this notion of customer value. Starting to see some visibility into a clear line of sight around how the technology in the cloud can be put into use.  Tell us about that. Yeah, we're very excited about that in the sense that customers are always asking us why the cloud and why now? Why don't I just stay with what I have? And we keep telling them that as technology changes, we want to be on top of it for them and they don't have to think about it, they just have to use it. So we're making it easier for them to consume our technology, but for us to be able to do that, we need partners. We need partners that can be the backbone inside the cloud because the cloud is supported by equipment, machinery, systems, all sorts of things that we don't really want the customer to have to worry about that. We want the customer to consume the services. We want them to run their business. So when we formed this partnership with the Cisco and the CenturyLink team, the best thing about it is the fact that we have a partner who creates the engine, who puts together our Hannah Reference architecture, who sets everything up so the customer doesn't have to think about it. And then we have the CenturyLink team who provides all of the services. They make sure everything works. They listen to what the customer needs and they make sure it all runs together. This is important. I want to highlight this and I want to ask another follow-up question on that because I think this really speaks to the cloud transformation we're seeing, the digital transformation, whatever you want to call it. Certainly it's the cloud, it's data. And Bill McDermott's been on this for years. It's our eighth year covering Sapphire and he was showing data dashboards years ago. So he's been Notre Dame's in the whole vision there. But cloud's been a moving train and your customers and CenturyLink customers and Cisco customers are constantly questioning themselves around their relationships that they have and the business that they run. This is important because what you're highlighting is you guys have been no stranger to partnering. But now that the cloud stakes are high the value to the customer at CenturyLink is they can provide no disruption. And so I want to get into that a little bit. What at Sapphire is being announced that's going to help this? Well, I think that customers are always interested in global reach. Okay, they might be starting locally in one country and they want to know that when they partner with us SAP or that when we SAP partner with someone else to help us that when their business grows, we're ready for them and we can grow with them. And in the cloud, customers just assume that somewhere is all the equipment, right? Somewhere the cloud runs, but today security is really important for our customers. They want to know, can we comply with the rules for data sovereignty in various countries around the world? And they want to know if our partners, if we choose one to work with us can also do that for them. Just having a conversation with a group of experts and influencers this morning on our on our crowd chat digital platform. And the question that came up is, what's the biggest misconception of DevOps or cloud in the enterprise? And the number one question that came up was, oh, it's easy, that's the number one misconception. And it's not easy. There's a lot of things going on around compliance, governance, but also SLA performance around latency, little things like moving packets around and making applications bulletproof and security. How does this relationship with CenturyLink and Cisco make that a reality for customers so they can be confident that things are going to be secure and that these implementations going to be reliable? Well, first of all at SAP, we've defined a very specific reference architecture. So the Cisco team bills the environment for the customer according to that architectural standard. Our security team provides guidance on what the security standards have to be and between our CenturyLink team and our Cisco team, they have to make sure that those standards are deployed and that we are completely hack-proof. Because you know what? There is everybody out there trying to get into customer systems. Data is very valuable. Business knowledge could destroy you if a competitor could find something out about you, right? So we want to promise our customers that everything is secure and that we have a team of ace security experts and we all collaborate together to make sure that we can keep their environment safe. You know, cloud-enabled IT infrastructure and application development and all these SLAs that are required in the cloud are going to be interesting. On our next segment, we're going to have Cisco and CenturyLink on. What are they going to be saying? When we ask them about the relationship, what are some of the things that they're going to say about what this all means for SAP, Cisco and CenturyLink? Well, I think, you know, and I won't put words in anybody's mouth, but I know that the Cisco team is looking at the fact that they're doing a lot of business today on premise and customers are getting out of having their own data centers because it's not cost effective for them. So when the customer is thinking about the cloud and they happen to like the environment that they have, they want to know that they can have a similar environment in the cloud because realistically, customers still ask the question, what's under the hood? What am I getting? How do I know that you can provide these SLAs? What are you doing to guarantee me, you know, the 99.9 uptime, right? So customers do ask us those questions. Cisco has excellent answers for those questions and then they also ask the CenturyLink team, what is your expertise in HANA and what is your expertise in running all the other applications that I might want to consume from SAP? So it's the combination of the engine and the people that make the success in the cloud because that's how we deliver the service to the customers. And also to complicate things, I would say that the customers want things faster now. Yes they do. Faster latency and speed of solutions, but performance, but like deployments. I want it yesterday. That's a big factor. The deployments expectations for the customers are pretty high. Well, you know, sometimes the customers think that they can call us up and they can say, I'd like to do a cloud project. And then 24 hours later, magically all sorts of stuff can appear. That's not always the case because every customer has a unique set of things that they'd like to see in the cloud. When they tell us what they need and we recommend, you know, how to set it up for them, we work with them and when to deliver it. And I have worked with customers on some very large implementation complicated projects. It still requires the same amount of thought process from an implementation perspective when you do it on premise, as if you do it in the cloud. Because you still have to think about what you want to use and how you want to use it and when do you want to go live? Lots going on at Sapphire. Just to wrap up, we're going to bring on our guests from Cisco and CenturyLink in our next segment. Talk about this relationship. But just in general, what's your perspective of the things that are happening right now around Sapphire now 2017? What's the big exciting announcements if you could kind of generalize the theme? What's the sentiment? What's the aroma of the buzz? Well, I would think first of all, our new Leonardo announcement is going to generate an awful lot of excitement in the market and I'm not going to steal anybody's thunder by talking to somewhere about what that is. But I also think that customers want to know that we are keeping up and that we're ahead of more importantly, the technology trends. So when we have a big event like Sapphire, we make sure to have announcements keyed up and ready to go and each day we will tease them with releases of what some of this information is going to be so that it generates excitement because post Sapphire, we'll be doing a lot of follow up conversations with our customers. And I think one of the things I observe just as an anecdote to that is I think, I like SAP's always had a good strategy with the data as I mentioned with McDermott earlier, but I think the developer stake in the ground that was put in last year around with the iOS and the Apple kind of set the tone over the course of last year. Hey, we're going outside of the SAP traditional developer and we want to expand the reach of what a developer is. I think that cloud native view is very relevant. I think you're leading the charge on that. So congratulations. And we have converted what used to be the traditional on premise software code lines into cloud code lines. And that means a lot of work internally that people may not realize that you just don't take what you used to have and run one way and throw it into the cloud. You really have to think about and develop for specifically the cloud. Well, super impressive to see the partnership evolution where you're really bringing the big players in partnership delivering real value. Congratulations, Margaret. Thanks for coming on and in our next segment we're going to have Cisco and CenturyLink on to discuss the relationship with SAP, Cisco and CenturyLink. Great combination. Up and down the stack. Great benefit for customers. Again, thanks so much. This is theCUBE. More coverage of Sapphire now after the short break.


Quarantine measures have hit those who are already vulnerable the hardest. In Eastern Ukraine, where hostilities take place, lack of freedom of movement has hampered people's rights to health, food, family life and social security. Throughout the country, the Roma community has told us about the worsening of their already limited access to water and sanitation, food, healthcare and social security. The vulnerability of women and girls to gender-based violence has increased due to an erosion of their financial independence and quarantine-imposed confinement. This negative impact is particularly painful for those living in isolated communities and along the contact line in Eastern Ukraine. Furthermore, homeless people face a significant challenge accessing even basic facilities and resources during the coronavirus pandemic. If everyone, the government, civil society and private sector put human rights front and center to this crisis, we have a chance to foster a more inclusive societal COVID-19 response, not only in the region where I work in, but also throughout the world.


Palisades Medical Center is a place where people really want to go to train. We have tremendous faculty, we have a brand new medical school, we have residencies that are really at the top. We have a tremendously diverse patient population so it's a great place to learn and people recognize that and our residencies are very competitive. People want to come here. There are many advantages to doing your residencies here at Palisades Medical Center. It includes the residency program itself, it includes the location where we are, it includes the administration and it includes the health care system that we are a part of. Palisades Medical Center is a very strong community hospital in a diverse, culturally diverse, ethnically diverse neighborhood. We offer a lot of opportunity to see all kinds of diseases for our residency trainees and we have a senior team that's really dedicated to education. We really have a trajectory in education that's straight up. We are leading in this with new residencies, a brand new medical school, there's a real enthusiasm for teaching and we're a place that there's a tremendous amount to learn so we're very diverse with 17 hospitals, tremendous experience. You put that all together and you have an amazing teaching program. The residents are extremely important to our hospital and over the years of our training program, we've become more and more reliant on our residents. They keep us young, they keep us thinking, they keep us learning. They're an invaluable resource to our attending staff as well as to the hospital. We want the residents to make decisions. We want them to present to attendings but we want them to be hands-on. Those patients, you know, we tell them to take possession of your patient. Those should be your patients, you should establish the rapport with those patients and you should fully take care of them both medically and psychologically and the whole surrounding infrastructure. We want the residents to be immersed in that whole patient care experience. So it's really very important for us to create that continuum, create that culture that we think makes better doctors. They're integral members of our health care team. We consider them along with our nurses and other team members as part of the everyday process of care. Without them, we could not deliver the highest quality of care and they also serve to push the standard of care. So the school, rather than being just a silo by itself, is in fact a whole continuum across the residency and that's really important for us that that culture that we're developing in the undergraduate medical students comes right up through the residents and then into the attendings. For us, high quality care means that we'll have better patient satisfaction, team members satisfaction and our patients will get the best outcomes.


Live from Las Vegas, it's theCUBE covering Dell EMC World 2017. Brought to you by Dell EMC. And welcome back here on theCUBE. We continue our coverage of Dell EMC World 2017. We're live here at the Sands Expo, the Venetian beautiful facility, great show, 13,000 plus attendees, a record number there, turning out for this three-day event. Along with Paul, Gil and I'm John Walls. Nice to have you with us. And we're joined now by, I think a gentleman that we can all relate to, at least from the MasterCard perspective, the Credit Card perspective, Nick Kukuru, the Vice President of Big Data Practice, Nick. Thanks for being with us, we appreciate the time. It's a pleasure to be here, especially at this particular event. Yeah, good. And Tony Parkinson, who is the VP of Sales and Systems Engineering at Dell EMC. And Tony, good to see you, sir. Quite to be here, John, thank you. So let's relate first off before we get into what machine learning and what you guys are doing with it. Let's just set the big picture here, credit cards, right? Paul and I were talking about it. We've been victimized, unfortunately. Many people are. How big is the fraud business, if you will, the detection business for you? How critical is that for you and MasterCard? Well, for us at MasterCard, the biggest thing is always making sure that people that use a MasterCard are protected. So we at MasterCard take that particular, whether it's fraud, anti-money wandering, that we take that individual and we are stewards of what that person has entrusted us with. We're stewards of their data. We're stewards of how their experience that they have with it. So we want them always to make sure from a fraud perspective, especially that they're protected. We're doing everything you can to make sure the person who uses that card is the person that has that card, right? So again, when you look at fraud, it's one of the biggest plays that the cyber attacks happen because it's an easy way to make money quickly, right? And for us, it's a ability to say how can we stay one step ahead because the fraudsters themselves are just as smart as we are. They're graduating from some of the top universities worldwide. They are carrying and going through a lot. They're doing big data and analytics themselves. So they are getting more sophisticated. They are getting more complicated. They are absolutely, this is a big business for fraudsters worldwide. So in this kind of cyber arms race that you're talking about here a bit, machine learning, how does that come into play with what you're doing and why does that give you, you think, maybe a leg up? Well, when you take a look at machine learning and what its potential is, right? So for us, machine learning allows us to actually bring in the data so much faster. Again, our goal is to know that when you're making a transaction, we don't want to impede that transaction you're going to have with the merchant. We want that experience to go smoothly, but we also want to make sure that transaction is a valid one. So when you look at machine learning and its ability to start to actually do the speed in milliseconds to understand, to apply rules in regards to this is what a fraudulent transaction looks like, this is what it doesn't look like. The ability to get closer to the transaction with those rule sets or the set of rules is really a big deal because again, it's milliseconds now. It's not after the fact. It's not chasing, it's now I am going to prevent this up front if I can. And also with machine learning, the goal is for us we call them false positives. It allows us to reduce false positives again to make sure that within our data and when someone's doing a transaction that card goes through. We don't want it to be like you've shown up in Chicago, now you're in London and your card shuts down. We want to be able to say that's a valid transaction. So again, the way we can alert people is this really you, the way we can interact with them to make sure those transactions are all valid. Have you been able to introduce new variables into the machine learning process because you have this capability now? Yeah, the ability when you look at machine learning there's two ways to look at it. There's supervised learning, there's unsupervised learning. And when we looked at it as we actually do we're kind of a hybrid, which is semi-supervised. So we want to take what we know about fraud. Again, master card, we know a lot. I mean, we've got close to a million rules somewhere that we can apply to transactions in different parts of the world. But the goal is to take that supervised learning as it teaches the machines what it needs to know, but then the unsupervised, what are those new points of fraud coming through? That really helps us move that needle. So again, for us when we take a look at machine learning it's that ability to say we want the machine to learn, we also want to supervise it to an extent. So again, we do a kind of, as we experiment with machine learning we want to make sure that we're always kind of looking at what we're getting in results to make sure it's proper. And that the results are positive. Tony, I have to admit I would not have put big data analytics and Dell together in the same sentence previously, what are you doing in this area that we need to know about? No, absolutely. I'm saying if you look at the platform infrastructure we're providing for Nick to achieve those millisecond response times that's where the technologies that Dell has been our latest generation of compute platforms, our 14G servers, which announced here this week, as well as the Iceland technologies from a storage perspective. We're really working very close partnership with partners like Hardera and Vidya to integrate that platform and make his ability to go chase that experience down so the machine can learn faster. That's really our engagement with great customers like last week. What platforms are you using for the machine learning? Well, when you take a look at it, again, it's not necessarily the platform itself obviously we have done and we use it. There's other ones that we use but the thing about it is pretty much Hadoop has helped us move the needle. And that's because Hadoop's first wave was all about speed and flexibility. The next wave that we're starting to see is about machine learning in itself. The ability to learn what you know so you can apply it to larger data sets. So where Dell comes into play is to provide us the ability to have commodities, quote unquote, please don't hurt me, but commodity type hardware to be able to process so you lower cost of ownership which gives us the ability to process faster, larger sets of data. And then also when we take a look at that when we look at partners like at Cloudera and you look at partners such as even the other distribution systems out there whether it's work and works or map are the ability to sit back and say they're creating work benches but now go across and take these silo tools that we're in Hadoop and now are creating a way to actually move them together seamlessly to again take the power of each individual tool and then magnify it. And again when you got Python running you've got Spark and you've got Solar all working together. Again that speed, that efficiency is just opens up a lot more opportunities. Now we're seeing these vendors and MapR just introduced an edge-oriented version of their suite. We're seeing them begin to think about how does big data extend out to the edge? And we were talking earlier about the delay and what an issue of the delay is in customer experience and improving credit card transactions. How do you see these architectures evolving with will more intelligence move out to the edge? Yeah and that's actually what you want to get to that experience because when you move it to the edge you're getting closer to the consumer, the customer itself, right? And that's what you want to be able to do is now they can have an interaction, a real relationship with you. And when you move it to the edge and you get closer and closer, the opportunity now allows you to help that customer get what they're looking for, right? Again, the question is always when you do that is how you're interacting with that customer. Is it for their benefit or is it for your benefit? So I think as you look at from a cultural standpoint as you look at and you get to the edge the question is how does the customer benefit more than potentially the vendor themselves, right? Because you don't always be putting out offers. What you want that customer is probably to get knowledge because the customer experience is about an emotional attachment and an intellectual attachment. And you want that person to be both stimulated and have that experience with you versus all you're trying to do is sell me another widget. So Tony, if you're looking to offer some advice to somebody about embarking on the machine learning journey what would that be? Yeah, I think certainly it is a journey. And I think the deployment of a machine learning is part of that journey. So start off with some data capture. Customers have been doing data capture years. The type of data is changing. So the volume of data, I've got my traditional data now I've got my unstructured data. But then moving into the world of machine learning you're seeing new tools. And I think there's been a fear that I've got to have a bunch of PhDs to help me on that journey. There's tools coming now open source tools from Cloud Era that will allow you to start to understand what is my data sets. And I think we talked about this last night is start small. Don't try to solve my entire data problem. Start off with a small chunk that I can then measure results and then start building my skill set and my knowledge and start adding new parameters versus we're going to have this massive project and we're not really ready for it. I think that's the advice we would see is to start small and grow. And I think that's been Nick's experience. Well, one of the things is when you do start small and you get focused, you also get the organization of buying in. One of the things that machine learning if there's an agreement is a cultural acceptance. It is a black box. Literally it's a black server box, right? That sits there. So now it's like, how do you demystify this? How do you prove to the organization what they're seeing will help solve their problems? That's when you have to tie it to a metric. That's where you start to be able to say let's get very focused on what we want to try that this machine predicts for us, right? How this machine learns for us, whether it's fraud or new sales or how to get more efficient on a production line. If you start small at that point and you were able to measure it and you're able to actually sit back and say the organization starts to get more and more trusting in what they're seeing. Because again, the impeachment is it's a black box. But we're typically seeing the start is in sales and marketing. Those are the, they're really good logical starting points around that journey. But it is a cultural buyer though, right? Absolutely. You've really got to be all in. Yep. And that's why if you're going to start, I usually, one of the suggestions we'll work with our clients more in MasterCard, MasterCard advisors, is you probably want to go supervised. Supervised machine learning, meaning you know what the results are going to be or should be. And then the system's like, oh, that's what it should be. I see it's happening, it's right. Organization starts to buy in and then you can start to move to that semi-supervised. Let some of that unsupervised learning happen, be able to alert you, create the anomaly detections and then it gives you the privilege to go forward. But really it's starting as like, if you got to get the buy in, supervised machine learning is the way to go, to get it and then eventually work your way through.  Absolutely. Take it slow. Gentlemen, thanks for being with us here. Thank you. Appreciate it. Good to see you both. Cheers. We will continue live here from Las Vegas, Dell EMC World 2017, right after this.


Neutra introduced first European modernism and the California climate afforded him the opportunity to design blurring the boundary between indoors and outdoors. His buildings are all over Southern California and UCLA is an important research institution in Southern California and more to the point it's open to the public. Here in the preservation department we collaborate with people all over the library to make sure that we're preventing damage and preserving the material as long as possible. I have visited UCLA library special collections probably between 600 and 800 times maybe more with Neutra having access to primary sources that really informed the direction of my beliefs and it really led me home.


It's time to make the annual announcement of the Pegasus Awards from the James Brandy Educational Foundation. And boy, have we got a spectrum this year. Mind you, we always do, but I've got to also one person that really stands out and you'll find out in a moment who that is. In the scientist category, this may be a name that you've heard of, Dr. Stanislav Brzezinski.  His clinical trials cost patients tens of thousands of dollars. He really knows how to charge. That's one thing he has mastered. Medical science, maybe not. He's currently under FDA investigation for violating the rules of clinical trials. Whether that goes into place, we just don't know. But we want to give him the scientist category. Congratulations, Dr. Stanislav Brzezinski. Number two, in the funding category, the Pumpkin Hollow Retreat Center job. No, it doesn't only operate on Halloween in case you were wondering, but they fund and promote therapeutic touch. This is known as TT. First of all, it's not therapeutic and it doesn't involve any touching, but that shouldn't surprise you in the rules of fake medicine. This was tested, as you may recall, by Emily Rosa some years ago, when she was just a mere slip of a child. She designed some tests and they were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association as a quite definitive test and such. And all the nurses failed and they have not come back for a test since. So we have the media category. Oh, the sci-fi channel comes up for attention again. Now, as you know, if you ever look at the sci-fi channel, which has some interesting things on it, all these pseudoscientific investigation shows such as Ghost Hunters, Haunted Collector, dah, and fact or fate, the paranormal files. Now, they do very well with this, but they are an entertainment outlet after all and they don't say they're doing anything real or telling any truth. They just don't care. Like so many of these channels with all the junk science on them, they don't care. So they win a Pegasus Award this year. And in the performer category, Alex Jones is pushing dozens of pseudoscientific alternative therapies such as water filters that's supposed to remove poisonous fluoride and various unproven herbal remedies. He's one of the spearheads of the 9-11 Truth-er movement which has no truth in it whatsoever. So, Alex Jones, congratulations. Now, there's another category that's been added here. It's important, folks. Let's take this seriously. Dr. Mehmet Oz, I'd spelled O-Z, but he gets into the Refusal to Face Reality category this year for the James Randy Educational Foundation Annual Pegasus Awards. Now, you know his show, his TV show. Given to him years ago by Oprah Winfrey, who has a habit, Oprah does, of embracing unquestionably, embracing anything that sounds good, sounds nice, it sounds nice and it's pleasant, particularly if it involves women. That's important to her, and rightly so. He dresses in Operating Gerb during most of his show, just so you know that he's ready. Should someone in the audience start dying, he can run down there and save them. Now, it's a popular TV show. It promotes shamelessly all manner of pseudoscientific and paranormal health claims, including reparative therapy to cure gay people. Want to try it, Doc? I got a challenge for you right here. Rakey, oh, his wife, by the way, is a rakey priestess. So every now and then when he's doing operations, now he is a cardiac surgeon, remember. And he's very skilled in this direction, so we are led to understand. He has a very good record of successes, operations on our cardiac victims, and during the operation, you'll suddenly see him stop when he hears a clapping of hands. That comes from an attendant dressed at the green gown with the mask on, who comes over to the patient and passes her hands over the patient like this to even out the human aura. This is what Nanda, the Nursing Association, believes, you see, that they believe this aura actually exists. And then she waves her hand at Dr. Oz, and Dr. Oz goes back in with the scalpel. I don't think I'm gonna invite Dr. Oz to operate on me in a cardiac fashion, in fact, in any fashion. I wouldn't trust him to give me an aspirin tablet. In a way, aside from his specialty of cardiac surgery, which he's very good at, we admit that, he has a great record in that field. But aside from that, Dr. Mehmed Oz is a quack. Refusal to face reality, that Pegasus this year goes to Dr. Mehmed Oz. Now, just to leaving you, I'll tell you something about how important Dr. Oz is to us. He is the only person on this planet, or any other that we know of, who has gotten three Pegasus awards. Congratulations, Dr. Mehmed Oz. You've broken the record. Aren't you proud? Quack of the year, again. This is James Randi. Thank you, folks.

It's gonna be a hot vest So we've got tornadoes and Kyogre coming out for stew and the Veltel and Muga's coming out for Luigi here The rain coming to the field. So you see the dark aura activate on Luigi set the field The Muga's gonna switch out straight away type of thing you're gonna come in bring that misty terrain to the field and Protect any status as we see the Kyogre just throw out big water spout Gonna be able to be absorbed quite easily from that Veltel But we are seeing stew activate that fly in EMC the supersonic sky straight coming out from the tornadoes It is gonna be into that tapu fini doubling into that slot and is not enough just prok in the berry there and A snarl coming out from the Veltel gonna law the special attack on both Pokemon and stew so the field and do some nice chip Janamage in the process We're gonna see the Kata come in for that Kyogre now as a taunt comes out into that tapu fini gonna prevent any shenanigans going on there as an oblivion wind comes out from the Veltel into the tornadoes recovering some of The health done by the waterspout and do some nice chip damage to the tornadoes in turn Nature power now coming out into the cartona digging down 50% health as it switches out Into the incineroar gonna cycle that intimidate onto that cartona So we see a tailwind now set up from the tornadoes and a knockoff come out from the cartona Removing that assault vest from the Veltel gonna see another oblivion wing from this Veltel now picking up the knockout onto the cartona The scene is set now for stew as he brings in that zernia It's got to be careful for the fake out support from that incineroar But we do see the tornadoes switch out for the Kyogre gonna hit the field now and a fake out into that zernias with an Oblivion wing into the Kyogre gonna chip that down even further do some nice damage to that Veltel sitting on full health now Not in a bad position as we see the incineroar switch out Munga's gonna hit the field as a sucker punch comes into that Kyogre But a scald now Into that a munga's gonna soak that up really nicely as a geomancy comes out from this zernia It's gonna get itself powered up set the field up for stew to start sweeping away But got to be very careful around that a munga sits on the Ouija side of the field So the rain does stop gonna see the misty terrain stop as well Perfect timing for that a munga's as we see the zernias just protect here scald coming out again from the Kyogre into that Eveltel but a snarl coming out from the Eveltel into the Kyogre picking up the knockout there But blocked by that protect from the zernias as the sport comes out from the mungas tailwind has pitted out now We're gonna see the tornadoes hit the field tornadoes going for that taunt into the mungas here as we see a sucker punch into What you would presume would be the tornadoes dazzling being gonna come out pick up the knockout on that Eveltel do some nice chip damage to the mungas, but a clear smog coming out removing those geomancy boosts and Really putting Luigi back in the driving seat now as the incineroar comes in cycles as it intimidates Not really affecting your special attackers. We're gonna see the tornadoes protect this turn Take out into that slot as another geomancy coming out for a stew He's not giving up just yet gonna go for that two-turned geomancy here as a clear smog into the tornadoes Munga's gonna switch out tapu finny gonna hit the field again as we see that misty terrain activate once more for Luigi You're gonna see a hurricane blind hit the tapu finny and the geomancy is now complete For stew as he gets the second geomancy of the game off boosting those stats as a flablet now from the incineroar into that Tornadoes and finally picking up the knockout But Zernia is still not in a bad position here with those geomancy boosts behind it That's only I'm gonna come out pick up the knockout onto the tapu finny and a flablet It's coming out from the incineroar going to take it down to about 50% health and just proc that berry Put it in a nice place going into this next turn So Luigi brings in that a mungas again and Zernia's now just struggling to close this match out It does pick the knockout up onto that incineroar as a clear smog coming out into the Zernia's Removing those geomancy boosts once again. Who can take this moon blast coming into the mungas? it's not quite enough and Procking and revealing a guave berry and this is gonna seal it up for Luigi as he comes back with a clear smog Removing those boosts and knocking out the Zernia so Luigi taking game one amazing set there to kick us off today Going straight into game two stew's gonna lead off with that tornadoes Kyoga and Luigi gonna lead off with the Zernia's and mungas the rain Activating on the field that Kyoga is scoffed. It's already been revealed.  Here we go stew leading off with the Kyoga tornadoes and Luigi leading off with the incineroar and Tapu finny here and that same predicament again, but the fake out support is relevant got to be careful here We do see the fake out into the Kyoga and a hurricane just coming out straight into that type of finny Nature's madness now from the finny into the Kyoga taking it down at 50% health I'm gonna see the incineroar now switch out for a Veltel gonna preserve that for later on with those intimidates and A scald coming out from the Kyoga not want to lock into that water spout as another hurricane from the tornado It's into that type of finny as a light screen now set up on Luigi side of the field We're really gonna help against those special type attacks that are coming out from stew as katana comes in for the Kyoga we are gonna see that supersonic sky strike once again from the tornado It's gonna launch it which target is it gonna be into gotta think it is into the tapu finny And it will be enough behind that light screen enough to pick up the knockout there as an oblivion when comes out from the Veltel into the katana doing some nice damage and recovering all that health that it's taken from the past turns Incineroar gonna come back in now cycle at all important intimidate onto the katana and the Kyoga not on the field now Incineroar is feeling safe But as we say that Kyoga coming right back in for stew as the faker comes out into the tornadoes and the snarl From that Veltel gonna lower the special attack on both these Pokemon make it really difficult Especially with that light screen up as well. You're gonna see the tornadoes now switch out for the zernius thunder coming out from the Kyoga it is into that you Veltel, but doing very Minimal damage and picking up the paralysis and getting the fully paralysis on the Veltel you turn now coming out from the Incineroar gonna switch out and the mungas come back under the field that deterrent for the Zernius on stew's side stew gonna go for the geomancy It's very risky with the mungas out on the field We'll see go into this turn as the Veltel switches out now for the Incineroar the protect coming out from this Zernius as another thunder from the Kyoga, but because the rain's not up not connecting not a hundred percent accurate as a Spoke comes out into that Kyoga slot putting it to sleep tornadoes now switching for the Kyoga Gonna come out with the Zernius into the carton or as well predicting a small slot into that one But the flablets from Luigi into that carton of picking up the KL Predicting that switch big play. There's a grass not coming now into that tornadoes Tonya's gonna be able to suck that up now very nicely as the Zernius comes back in and starts its Geomancying time so we're gonna see the tornado switch out and Kyle get hit the field now get that rain back up onto the field as We see the mungas now switch out Fearing the hurricane from that tornadoes as he Veltel hits the field gonna see the Geomancy come out from The Zernius is this a perfect moment for Stu to start sweeping through Luigi's team Luigi got to be in a bad position here But we could see a U-turn from this Incineroar which would help him pivot out But we're not gonna see that I'm gonna see just a flablet into that Kyoga slot But because of the rain it is able to take it moon blast now coming into the Veltel gonna be more than enough to Pick up the knockout and Stu is starting the rampage as we see another flablet from this Incineroar Into the Kyoga gonna pick up that knockout here now, but can he deal with this Zernius tornadoes now coming out into the field It's gonna be the protection against that a moonga's a dazzling gleam in a hurricane Probably gonna be enough to pick up the knockout on that a moonga's not quite enough to pick up the knockout on the Incineroar But we are gonna see a hurricane is this enough if it is he wins Yes, it is enough and now Luigi stuck for options really to get rid of that Zernius Especially with the rain at preventing the damage output from that flablet and Zernius is able to close things out there So we will go straight into our next game It is gonna be Alex versus Johnny so Alex gonna lead off with that Incineroar and stack attack and Johnny gonna lead off with Persian and Zernius so very interesting lead here from Johnny You see the intimidate cycle from that Incineroar fake out is on both sides of the field as we see the Zernius switch straight out for the a moonga's he has a fake out from both sides just burning the turn here We are gonna see parting shot now from that Persian into the Incineroar And a lot of the attack and special attack of that target as Cortana hits the field now and the flablet's coming out from the Incineroar Into that moonga's but not quite enough picking up the burn I'm gonna see a spore from the moonga's shutting down that stack attack and not allowing it to move or set up a trick room We are gonna see the moonga's take a little bit of burn damage, but nice. It is proc'ing that berry wiki berry restoring all that health now Incineroar switching out for Zernius in the field for Alex as that fairy aura does activate stack attack I also gonna switch out Smigel gonna hit the field We've got the Smigel Zernius lead coming out for Alex now as we see a sacred sword into that Smigel slot predicting that switch It was into the stack attack I saw an easy call there but Smigel being able to hang on now with its focus sash and do some nice disruption For Alex aside of the field. We're gonna see Cortana just withdraw and the Zernius for Johnny come out as we see a Moonga switch places as well and the Persian now hit the field once again I'm gonna see the Zernius just protect this turn in the spiky shield from the Smigel So the moody boost active in accuracy dropping there as we see a faint from this Persian into the Smigel picking up the knock out there You're gonna see a Jmancy from Johnny's Zernius. What is Alex's Zernius gonna do is they're gonna follow suit You would imagine has to keep up pace and go for a Jmancy of its own We all gonna see are we gonna see it? We all gonna see it. There it is There's a Jmancy both Zernius is now boosted up This person's got to feel a little bit scared on Johnny's side of the field because if that Incinero comes in for Alex Now it has fake out support and the Persian is gonna be in a really awkward position Prone to being picked up here from Alex's side of the field We are gonna see a protect from the Zernius and Johnny's side of the field as the Incinero goes for the fake out into that slot That's one game now coming out from the opposing Zernius I'm gonna take down the Persian gonna be more than enough as we see the Moongies come on to the field now for Johnny You're gonna see Incinero retreat as Stack Attacker hits the field once again for Alex as the Zernius Just protects on Alex's side of the field moon blast coming out now into that stack attack It's gonna do big damage big damage put it in range of a dozen gleam potentially this next turn and that Zernius on Alex's side of the field has got a feel threatened moon blast again coming out into that stack attack Gonna be enough to pick up the knockout there moon blasts from Alex's Zernius into Johnny's Zernius clear smog Gonna seal up the deal almost for Johnny here removing those Jmancy boosts and putting Johnny in such a nice Position going to this next turn now You gotta wait out and hopefully get through this fake out turn here as we see a protect from the opposing Zernius As we see a fake out into the Moongies and a dazzling gleam gonna be there But not enough to do damage onto this Moongies moon blasts now from Johnny's Zernius into the Incinero on Alex's side of the field And that lowly Zernius on Alex's side gonna be able to just throw out a moon blast But not gonna be doing enough damage against this Geomancy boosted Zernius So Johnny looking like he is gonna pick this one up here as we go straight into game two How are both trainers gonna adapt and change things up here? We are gonna see Alex lead off with that Incinero and Zernius this time around and the Persian and Cortana come out for Johnny They see the Intimidate cycle from the Incinero on Alex's side of the field So you see that Zernius switch straight out doesn't want to entertain any Anytime on the field here as Groudon comes in brings that Sun with it We are seeing the Incinero switch out straight away as well The Stacker-Tacker hitting the field fake out into that Stacker-Tacker slot and a tailwind from this Cortana Send the speed control up on Johnny's side of the field But he's got to be a bit worried about the potential trick room from that Stacker-Tacker Stacker-Tacker now wanting to stay on the field though as Incinero takes its place cycling those Intimidates once again His Groudon just protects his turn holding out as a foul pair comes out into the Incinero Doing nice chip damage with a follow-up from a sacred sword Incinero is taking a bit of damage here But it's in a nice position to get that fake out support which it is pressuring on to the Cortana now We are seeing the Persian just using that parting shot lowing attack and special attack on that Groudon as Zernius now hitting the field For Johnny is he gonna take this potential moment to go for that German sees in a nice position to do so You see the Cortana switch out again for that Persian groud I'm gonna now switch out for the Stacker-Tacker as the Geomancy is coming out from this Zernius Gonna boost that special attack special defense and speed and become a real threat on Johnny's side of the field Flable it's coming out now from the Incinero into the Persian doing big damage there because of the Sun and propping It's on very front in a nice position going to this next turn as the tailwind pillars out I'm gonna see the fake up from the Persian into that Stacker-Tacker Gonna deny it any movement this next turn as the dazzling game comes out into both Pokemon doing really respectable damage But a raw revealed from the Incinero now removing the Geomancy and Lasonius from the field as a Stacker-Tacker Retreats for the groud on bringing back that Sun after it has faded seen a parting shot from the Persian into that Incinero now and What is Johnny gonna bring back onto the field? It's gonna be Cortana gonna bring back that origami beast But a flablet into the Amungus not quite enough to pick up the knockout But the recoil is enough to take down that Incinero as the berry prox on the Amungus giving all that health back and sporing into that groud onslaught so the Zernius now coming back out for Alex Can he has got the Geomancy in the locker, but can he go for in front of these two threats here? We are seeing a leaf blade into the ground I'm gonna do big damage potentially put in range for this Amungus to pick up the knockout But a spore coming out into that Zernius here We are seeing the groud on retreat as the Stacker-Tacker takes the field for the groud on Johnny Predicting that switch going for the big play into the Stacker-Tacker Getting that beast boost as we see the Zernius now locking in to that Geomancy It's gonna Geomancy up get those boosts up But if Johnny's Amungus has went for that clear smoke or a spore here Alex's momentum is all but lost going into this next turn and we do see the spore The Zernius is not going to be able to attack as the groud on coming in both sleeping targets on the field for Alex He needs something to wake up Unfortunately, neither do as the leaf blade coming out into the groud on gonna obtain another beast boost You've got to imagine a clear smoke gonna come out here for the Amungus and pick up another win for Johnny Who is having a phenomenal start to this series so Going into our next game. We're gonna cover Pinko VGC versus Marty VGC So here we go Marty gonna lead off with the tap Coco and Lunara Pinko gonna lead off with the aromatis and the Laurentis What a crazy combination here for Pinko We're gonna see a protect from the Laurentis this first turn as a Volt switch coming in from the Coco into that Aromatis doing some nice damage there and Cortana now hitting the field what we're gonna see from this Lunara Just a Moongaes beam it is into that aromatis trying to pick up the knockout Yeah, but aromatis hanging on and getting the trick room off and turn the dimensions Cortana now retreating back Into that Tabacoco gonna preserve it for later as a moon blast into the Tabacoco slot and a super power into that slot as well Ballstring the defenses on that Laurentis and its attack as well We are now gonna see the Z move from Lunara on Marty's side of the field You've got to think it is gonna be into that Laurentis, but will it be enough? It's not Hangs on crazy. I have a very procking there You can see the Tabacoco protect this next turn as the aromatis goes from moon blast now into that Lunara Breaking that shadow shield. We're gonna see a knockoff. We are and it is gonna be enough to pick up that Lunara Pinko making some big strides early on in this match now. We see the Zernius hit the field. It is activating that Ferriora We're gonna see the Zernius switch straight out though for Marty's kind of baiting in that target There's Cortana hits the field gonna see a heel pulse from the aromatis into the Laurentis as another super power comes out It's gonna be enough to pick up the knockout onto the Tabacoco and these two are ripping through Marty's side of the field We're gonna see that Zernius now return to the field as we see the Chon come out from the aromatis into that Cortana gonna lure it to tax that as a leaf blade into the Zernius doing about 50% Damage as a Geomancy coming out from Marty last ditch attempt to try and salvage this game here as he boosts that special attack Special defense and speed on his side of the field with the trick room pending Finishing here is a sacred sword coming out trick room does end And a moon blast now coming out from the Zernius It is gonna pick up the knockout on to the Laurentis But we do see a smart strike into that aromatis and a bivouary berry activating and being revealed for Pinko there so nice information for Marty going into this next game as we are gonna see Incineroar and dustman the crossbow now hit the field and Cortana and Zernius are the last things that they want to be facing down against right now is that Incineroar and The dustman the cross now that charm turn from Pinko was so huge They can it's so viable and really shutting down that Cortana from being able to do anything We are gonna see the trick room now set up from that dustman the crossbow And this will begin because the Sunsteel strike will be more than enough to pick up the knockout onto that Zernius And it's simple flablets from this Incineroar gonna be enough to pick up the one shot on that Cortana Incredible game incredible game what a way to kick us off massive props to Pinko playing all the Things here with that aromatis. Are we gonna see it again going into game two as we see Marty switch things up with a Smeagol and Zernius leave and Pinko switching it up as well with an Incineroar and now bringing that Crobat into the fall So we are gonna see Incineroar go for that fake out No fake out from the Smeagol as we see a Z move. Is it gonna be a supersonic sky strike? No It's gonna be a C tailwind from that Crobat boosting those critical hit chances while it sets up the speed control for the Team gonna see a lovely kiss though from the Smeagol nice play there from Marty showing down the Crobat into these future turns as we see Crobat now switching out and the crossman gonna hit the field now take advantage of this tailwind It's gonna find it difficult It's only a slow Pokemon as a snarl comes out from this Incineroar to both targets breaking the sash on that Smeagol and learn Especially attack on that Zernius in case it does go for a setup attack We're gonna see another lovely kiss from this Smeagol now It is gonna be hitting into that Incineroar showing that down this next turn as the Smeagol does get a moody speed boost here going into this next turn It's only it's gonna retreat now as Lunala hits the field I'm gonna see another lovely kiss from this Smeagol into the dustman and crossman which protects this turn as we see Another moody boost, but the defense falling there on the Smeagol now Smeagol gonna retreat Cartana gonna hit the field for Marty here and then across what is under a lot of pressure as We are gonna see the Z move got imagine it is into that dustman and the crossman threatens the Zernius so heavily Marty has to chase that slot as we do see it It is into the crowbar and we are gonna see it pick up the one hit Kyo Just made a crossman coming back in but gotta feel a little bit safer now because of that Z move being used by Marty We're gonna see a protect from the Lunala protect from the dustman across my sacred sword into that Incineroar Not gonna be quite enough as a snarl comes out into both targets But the Lunala who has protected protected this turn still got that Shatter shield intact sacred sword now coming out again Into that Incineroar slot gonna be enough to pick up the knockout there and claim a beast boost for that Cartana Moongas beam coming into the dustman and the crossman as you've got to imagine if it can survive This it goes for the trick room We are seeing a weakness policy activate on this and across my gonna be coming a huge threat Very quickly as the trick room comes active and Kyogre now hitting the field for Pinko Marty's out of the field under a lot of pressure as this Potential waterspout coming out and this meagal coming back in Sunsteel strike gonna hit into that Cartana slot doing nice damage as a waterspout following up from the Kyogre and enough to clear the field here and Pinko from the break is coming back and really throwing this to Marty's out of the field Lunala and Zernius now come back in both these restrictors feeling a little bit pressure because of this trick room Lunala gonna protect here as we see another Sunsteel strike into that slot with a waterspout coming out from the Kyogre gonna hit into That Zernius and not quite pick up the knockout with a moon blast now into that Kyogre doing nice respectable damage You're gonna see the protect from the Zernius here as we see Sunsteel strike into this Lunala this time around It is plus two even though it's through the Shatter shield does huge damage is the skull gonna be enough It is not enough to pick up the knockout with a moon guys beam coming up from the Lunala Which target is it into picks up the knockout onto that necrosma Kyogre left on Pinko side of the field Has he got enough to finish this one out waterspout coming out crazy end to this match Crazy end and Pinko picking up. What is an incredible win? What a match and now we're going into our next match Which is gonna be shared versus will so what way better to go into this next one I'm gonna say shared lead off with that inciner on so Galeo and will lead off with Smigel and Lunala here Wow, what a glad that last match was crazy We're gonna see the so Galeo switch out now from the tapu finny and bring that misty syringe to the field protect against those Lovely kisses from that Smigel going into these next few turns tailwind coming out from the Lunala now Inciner all flinched from the fake out from that Smigel as we see some moody boosts and we are going to see the Lunala now retreat to Another for another time as the Kyogre now hits the field brings that rain with it The Smigel goes for a follow me detracting any damage from that Kyogre this turn with a nature's madness going into that slot Missing unfortunately, but a snarl coming out from the Incineroar all important onto that Kyogre reducing that special attack there and Chipping away at that Smigel and removing that focus that it's got possibly intact toxic Ocook now hitting the field for the Incineroar and gonna be able to soak up any water type of taxes A nice beam comes out now from that Kyogre into that toxic croak predicting the switch there from will nice player They're not throwing out these water type attacks There's a light screen set up from this tapu finny Kyogre gonna retreat now Cortana gonna come back onto the field so threatening both these Pokemon on Shades out of the field as we see Smigel just go for that spiky shield with the nature's madness into that Cortana slot and a poison jab into that Smigel gonna take a little bit of damage from those spiky shield But the rain gonna be more than enough to recover that from tailwind on Will so the field gonna end now as we see the type of finny on Shades side go Straight out for the Suggler with a follow me coming out from the Smigel gonna see a knockoff come out from the Cortana not gonna be enough to pick up anywhere near a knockout But a poison jab into that Smigel picking up the knockout there and the dry skin once again Recovering that health for shade now Can will make use of this you know that to get rid of the toxic croak Toxic croak is gonna be the one thing stopping this Kyogre from really performing here We're gonna see a sucker punch into the Lunala and what is this? It's gonna be Z move from the Lunala now. It's gotta be into that Suggler It is and picks up the one hit kill onto that Suggler removing that from the field But you've got to think it might have been more useful to go for that toxic croak as it is really Hindering the ability of this Kyogre here gonna see the Lunala just protect the Z incident where it's a field goes for That sucker punch into the Kyogre water spout coming out the rain has ended though So I'm gonna be hitting as hard Incinero able to take that as a flablet goes into that Lunala here the lightscreen has worn off for shade So he needs to be a bit more careful if that Kyogre comes back in Cortana now hitting the field sucker punch coming out into that Lunala But not baiting it in going for the tailwind as a flablet now coming into that Cortana slot Predicting maybe a switch there that the Kyogre goes out to get that rain back up Preaking up a huge chaos onto that Cortana as the Kyogre now hits the field But things are gonna be difficult because this toxic croak has sucker punch It's gonna be able to pick up the knockout on to this Lunala We are gonna see the Incinero switch back out now Missy terrain gonna hit the field as a sucker punch comes out into the Lunala picking up the knockout And you've got to think wills ability to remove this toxic croak is gonna be hindered severely now He's only got those thunders to rely on and we all gonna see Incinero hit the field once again As the Tepifini drops to a thunder from the Kyogre fake out gonna be in and then shade picks up the win We are gonna go straight into game two We're gonna see shade lead off once again with that Incinero and Suggler as will leads off with the Smiggle and Lunala again So I'm gonna see the Suggler switch straight out into Tepifini this time Not gonna take any damage not chanceing it and getting that Missy terrain up fake out again into that Incinero slot But will launching off a Z move straight away wanting to try and snipe that Suggler But going into the Tepifini not gonna be enough to pick up the Kyogre and activating that wiki berry giving it all that nice health back We're gonna see an evasion fall from this Miggle as a Lunala now retreats and Tepilele hit the field Bring that psychic terrain with it removing the Missy terrain is a lovely case coming out here from will Gonna shut down that type of finish from being able to do anything and what we're gonna see this Incinero Go for just another snarl and cycle those out reduce the special attack damage on the Tepilele and break that potential Sash on the Smiggle that hasn't been revealed yet I will just say so we're gonna see the Tepilele switch straight back out Kyogre now I'm gonna hit the field and bring the rain with it the Tepifini on shade side of the field is switching out now back Into that Suggler and the spiky shield coming up from the Smiggle just to make sure it's around for this next turn and take Good care of this Kyogre on will side of the field We are gonna see the Suggler switch straight back out full shade and that toxic croak take the field again Suck up all those water type attacks as we see the Incinero switch out straight away for that type of finny Predicting maybe a big water spout to come out here from the Kyogre and That's what we're gonna see It is not gonna affect this toxic croak and Tepifini gonna be able to sap it up We're doing nicely we're gonna see the Kyogre now switch straight back out into this Miggle toxic croak We're gonna retreat back into the Suggler here as we see a tailwind set up now from this Lunala and will side of the field And the Tepifini stays asleep Unfortunately as we see moody boost activate on the Avesha side as the Lunala switches back out into that Tepilele Gotta think this Miggle wants to go for that lovely kiss into that Suggler slot and shut that down as the toxic Croak now enters the field once again lovely kiss coming out into that Suggler Putting it to sleep and shutting it down protecting that Tepilele gun to this next turn toxic croak It's in a really really tight position now from the Tepilele So probably want to see it switch out this next turn as we see the Smiggle got out now for the Kyogre and really nice play there from Will But also a nice play again from Shade just to make sure that he is keeping that Missy terrain around on the field to protect from future Sleep turns as the Suggler wakes up this turn trick room set up and the render stop So we are gonna see toxic croak hit the field now pressuring that Tepilele Pressuring the Kyogre as we see the Smiggle come back in poison jab into that Tepilele slot Gonna pick up the one hit kill gonna make sure that that Misty terrain sticks around on the field with a Sunsteel strike coming out from this Suggler into the Smiggle picking up the knockout and Shade now in a really nice position with this trick room set up to just start this slow sweep against Will Will's not in the worst of places as well as the Kyogre comes in with the rain origin pulse gonna come out From the Kyogre gonna pick up nice damage from this Suggler as we see a Z move from the Suggler Where's it gonna be into is it gonna be into that Lunala? Stadium Z Into the Kyogre. Oh, it's not quite enough to pick up the knockout onto the Kyogre Moonguy's beam into the Suggler picking up the knockout there and the toxic croak in a really nice position to Still pressure that Kyogre as Incineroar now hits the field Sucker punch into the Kyogre picking up the knockout there Snaal coming out breaking that shadow shield on the Lunala for shade putting himself in a really nice position Shy shock gonna come out from the Lunala pick up the knockout on the toxic croak, but it's done its job Lunala in a real tight spot now not got any output to damage this Incineroar with another Snaal the trick room does end But you can't see any other way of this ending Moonguy's beam coming in to the Incineroar from Will's side of the field minimal damage after the Snaals and another one gonna take it down Next one is gonna be enough to finish up the game as you see another Moonguy's beam. How much is this gonna do? For HP as another Snaal comes out from shade and he is gonna take this game incredible set from both these Incredible players. So what a great way to kind of finish off the DS matches We are going into our next one here and we're gonna go into this one The rest of the matches in this series are gonna be all on showdown But they should be rapid and quick. So the first one we're gonna look at today. It's a Magi VGC versus Urine So we're gonna see Let's get straight into it guys. So hopefully the view isn't too bad.  We're gonna see a moon blast into your irons Zernius here as a snarl comes out from a Magi's Incineroar and it doesn't gleam followed up by your irons Zernius here as the tailwind is set up with a brave bird coming out into that Incineroar But not quite enough to pick up the knockout after the dozen gleam brave bird combination here and a snarl now coming out Reducing the attack damage on your irons zernius talent flame now going to be knocked out by a moon blast from the opposing zernius as Tapu Lele hits the field But your iron bringing in tapu finis straight away going to be able to remove that psychic terrain a taunt coming out and Blocking the light screen from your answer the field with the opposing zernius now able to pick up your irons zernius And you've got to imagine now your ins in a real tight spot to be able to close this one out We are going to see the tapu fini go for a nature's madness into the zernius ground on Can it survive it can take it it is going to be a heel pulse and get the precipice blades But it misses double miss that is crazy and oh that is going to be it for your iron You've got to think that precipice blades needed to hit there and that is cruelty That is awful for your iron if you was able to remove those two from the field there You've got to think you would have had a chance to come back But precipice blades just been so punishing and just really horrible in this situation But really good game to both players so going into our first match with Worms Eye versus Zef we're going to see Sogaleo and Alolan Maro I come out for Zef as the ludicolor and Kyogre come out for Nigel fake out into the Sogaleo protect and a water spot there from the Kyogre We're going to see the Maro switch out for Incineroar and the Waterium Z from the ludicolor into that slot Picking up the knockout single target water spot into the Sogaleo not able to survive Unfortunately, it's wishy-washy Maro I hit the field again, but that is going to be it for Zef on this occasion, which is really unfortunate and not able to get that trick room up And you've got to think that that's what his game plan is going into this next one If you get the trick room up get the wishy-washy activated get the Maro I can to a nice position to start throwing out damage But this Kyogre ludicolor from Nigel is just so overwhelming here We go into game two we're going to see Zef this time lead off with the Tornadus and Incineroar and the ludicolor Kyogre come out again from Nigel Going to stop that Tornadus from attacking this turn and the Incineroar going to do the same to the Kyogre I'm going to see Tailwind now from Zen's side of the field as a water spout and a Skull come out into that Tornadus Incineroar the Tailwind is set up. So Nigel isn't in the best of positions, but We are going to just see a forfeit from Zenf and that is unfortunate Just with the resources that he had left doesn't feel like he's got enough to come back in this game To beat the ludicolor which is probably going to be picking up the knockout onto that Kyogre Potentially the next turn in the Sogaleo just not got enough in the tank to clean up these two and another two pokemon in the back So really good set from both players as you can see on your screen now guys We're going to just show the results We've had a few games that have been delayed due to other issues in the circuit So Bebham has not been too well over the last week or two So we'll just give him a massive shout out just to say hopefully you're feeling better very soon My friend and we'll look forward to featuring your matches in the coming weeks And so that match has been postponed for a little while We'll have that featured in the coming weeks and then crim versus purple Who's a new player introduced into the circuit who we're going to be catching up with in the coming weeks as well So you can see the results here.
