In a major upset, seven-year-old Simone Lim won the Junior Championship division in the Pokemon Oceania International Championships. Hailing from Singapore, Lim beat out last year's winner, an older and a more experienced trainer, Justin Miranda-Radbord. A relative newcomer, Lim is in the midst of her first competitive season, making her victory all the more impressive.

Her match against Miranda-Radbord was a close one, with the crucial win coming down to the final moments of the third game. In what seemed like the moment Lim might very well lose, Miranda-Radbord eliminated her team down to Tryanitar, while he still had two Pokemon, Rhyperior and Dusclops, remaining.

In those final turns, Lim had to make a choice: She could try to knock out Rhyperior, the attacker, and risk it using Protect, or go for the Dusclops first before it could use any of its support moves. Lim correctly predicted Miranda-Radbord's turn--using Protect on Rhyperior--and used Tryanitar's Crunch to knock out Dusclops. The next turn, Lim used Superpower to knock out the Rhyperior, ending the game. Giving an adorable post-game interview, Lim clutched her Eevee plushie while explaining her gameplay and said that she knew Miranda-Radbord would protect Rhyperior. And though it seemed like she was reading her opponent so clearly and calmly, Lim admitted that she was nervous after her loss in the second round.

Lim also thanked her friends, family, and coach for supporting her. She's earned an invitation to the World Championships in August, so be sure to catch more of her matches then.

7-Year-Old Simone Lim Wins At The Pokemon's Oceania Championships - GameSpot

The region of Oceania has crowned a new International Champion in Marco Hemantha Kaludura Silva. Silvas run throughout this tournament was nothing short of impressive, finishing 12-2 over two days of Swiss and finishing off a tough Top 8 gauntlet with a victory over the defending Oceania Champion, Eduardo Cunha. Some could argue that Silvas journey to the finals was blessed by some fortunate circumstances going his way, especially in his Top 8 match versus Eric Rios (Dracovish was on point with its Rock Slide flinches). Nevertheless, he was able to capitalize on his teams favorable matchups and ultimately claim the title.

With the 2020 formats first International Championship in the books, theres a lot to unpack concerning the state of the metagame. The standard has all but been established at this point, but players have done their best to mix things up in order to improve their matchups. Here are some of our major takeaways from the Oceania International Championships.

Togekiss has cemented itself as the best Pokemon in the current VGC metagame by far. It appeared on 29 of the 32 teams that made it to the second day of Swiss, putting its usage at 90% (but it unfortunately failed to win the entire tournament).

Dynamax has been a blessing for Togekiss, allowing it to be an offensive menace with the ability to abuse Weakness Policy and the speed boosts from Max Airstream. Togekiss supplements this with outstanding offensive coverage and well-rounded stats that allow it to hit solid benchmarks for offense, defense and even speed.

Speaking of defense, the other side of Togekiss game is its bulk and support capability. Togekiss has access to the invaluable Follow Me and a plethora of other amazing support moves which can make its moveset somewhat unpredictable at times. In Oceania, players whipped out moves like Yawn, Helping Hand, Ally Switch with the list going even further. Babiri Berry has been a boon for Galars Fairy-types, and Togekiss is no exception, allowing it to take on some of the metagames most powerful Steel-types like Durant and Duraludon.

Togekiss sheer versatility will likely keep it as the metagames top Pokemon for the entirety of the format, and itll be interesting to see how far players will continue to push its viability.

VGC 2020 has been the year of de-buffing moves, with one of the most popular ones out there being Fake Tears. Fake Tears has made the format a haven for Special Attackers, with many of the formats top offensive threats being Pokemon like Duraludon, Togekiss, Inteleon and the Rotom forms (just to name a few).

Two of the metagames best supportive Pokemon in Whimsicott and Grimmsnarl both have access to this powerful move, and their added utility for providing speed control and further buffs/de-buffs have quickly catapulted their usage to the top.

Dynamax has been a big factor in the rise of moves like Fake Tears, as the extra push in damage makes Max Moves even more likely to score KOs and Dynamaxed Pokemon much easier to KO for non-Dynamaxed Pokemon.

The stat buffing/dropping game will only continue as the 2020 metagame progresses, and combining Fake Tears support with the formats plethora of powerful special attackers will likely persist as one of the top strategies.

What looked to be a strong team archetype at the beginning of the season, Trick Room teams look to have fallen off hard. Not a single one of these hard Trick Room teams made it to Day 2 in Melbourne, with not even Rhyperior or Torkoal managing to make it past the first day of Swiss. What happened?

It seems that players have shifted to more balanced teams with the option for Trick Room. Instead of entire teams being reliant on Trick Room, a lot of teams are often carrying combinations of Trick Room setters like Dusclops and Jellicent alongside slower Pokemon like Conkeldurr.

Tyranitars dominance of the metagame might also be a culprit considering how its powerful Dark-type attacks can easily dismiss many of the popular Trick Room setters plus its Sand Stream ability can put a rain (or I guess sand) on Torkoals Sunny Day. Tyranitar has also provided some decent competition for Rhyperior as a teams designated Weakness Policy abuser.

While its probably still too early to call it quits for Trick Room teams in VGC 2020, players who still believe in the archetype might need to revisit the drawing board.

Even though a lot of the top teams look similar, the individual Pokemon are often tailor-made to fit specific needs of a player and their team. As a result, there were a lot of interesting techs and new strategies players had success with this weekend.

Tyranitar was all over the place in Melbourne, but instead of the bread-and-butter Weakness Policy version, James Katsaros decided to use a primarily special attacking variant with Dark Pulse and Earth Power. This actually makes some sense considering this kind of Tyranitar can make better use of the Special Defense drops provided by Max Darkness.

Dragapult was a Pokemon that seemed poised to dominate the metagame at first, but it was tapering off from dominant status going into Melbourne. However, it found success on many successful teams as a special attacker mainly for its ability to outspeed the menace known as Durant and KO it with a Fire-type attack. Players like Yuya Tada experimented further with Dragapults diverse move pool by teching Scald on his version.

One of the biggest trends to break out into the mainstream is Rotom (primarily the Wash form) with Nasty Plot. Rotom was never known as a hyper offensive Pokemon, but besides spreading burns with Will-o-Wisp, Rotom forms were always valued for their offensive coverage. Enter the eighth generations gift of Nasty Plot, and Rotom becomes a potent sweeper. Rotom-Wash mightve been the most popular, but it ended up being Marco Silvas Rotom-Heat that took home the championship.

Weve been over Togekiss, but a couple players found another unique means of activating Weakness Policy on their teams. Nihal Noor (Top 4) and Brady Smith (Top 8) used unique teams featuring a Gengar with Sludge Wave that is able to hit the partner Togekiss and activate the Weakness Policy. This move also synergizes well with this teams other unconventional pick in Bisharp.

Thats a wrap for Melbourne and the first of three International Championships in the ever evolving 2020 format. Not only is the metagame changing organically within competitive play, but some big changes will be coming in March as more Gigantamax Pokemon and some familiar faces, courtesy of Pokemon Home, are added. It remains to be seen how far Melbournes impact on the metagame will reach as VGC 2020 continues to develop.

What We Learned From the 2020 Oceania International Championships - The Game Haus

AIBA Continental Forum for Oceania is scheduled for February 22 in the city of Nadi, Fiji.

This event would be second continental forum after successful start in Panama City. European Forum is scheduled for February 29 in Assisi, Italy, and the rest two dates for Asian and African forums will be announced soon.

There are in total 16 National Federations in Oceania.

AIBA Interim President Mohamed Moustahsane noted that after first forum in Panama there were a lot of good changes in AIBA-NFs relationships.

Oceania has a big potential in developing our beautiful sport in the region. We truly believe that after intense forums discussions we will find solutions how to develop boxing on the continental, said Dr Moustahsane.

He added that together with AIBA it would be more easy to make continental boxing stronger.

We need to listen to Oceanian NFs and find appropriate solutions to solve all existing issues. And step by step we will come to a new powerful strategy for the future", noted Interim President.

Fiji hosts AIBA Forum of Oceania on February 22 - Around the Rings

Fiji will host the International Boxing Association (AIBA) Continental Forum for Oceania on February 22.

The event, due to take place in Nadi, is the second to be held by AIBA after the inaugural forum was held in Panama last month.

Sixteen National Federations are expected to attend.

"Oceania has big potential in developing our beautiful sport in the region," said AIBA Interim President Mohamed Moustahsane.

"We truly believe that after intense discussions at the Forum we will find solutions for how to develop boxing on the continent.

"We need to listen to Oceanian National Federations and find appropriate solutions to solve all existing issues.

"And step by step we will come to a new powerful strategy for the future."

The forums were devised by AIBA marketing commission chair Umar Kremlev to create fruitful dialogue between AIBA, Confederations and National Federations after a crisis-riddled year for the organisation.

AIBA was stripped of its Olympic status last June over a number of issues, including governance, finances and refereeing and judging.

The organisation's future remains precarious due to a large amount of debt and uncertain leadership, with Moustahsane currently acting as Interim President after the resignation of Uzbekistan's Gafur Rakhimov.

Moustahsane and Kremlev were in attendance in Panama to give progress reports, while Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Committee President Brian Lewis was invited to advise National Federations and Confederations on how to facilitate the renovation of Olympic boxing in line with the International Olympic Committee (IOC).

Last month, Nenad Lalovi, head of the IOC group monitoring AIBA, slammed the lack of progress the body has made since it was suspended, warning the organisation that it needed to work much harder to be reinstated.

Kremlev claimed in Panama that the Continental Forums gave the IOC "no reason not to reinstate" the organisation, however.

Moustahsane also branded the forums as one of his organisation's "greatest ideas".

The European Forum will take place in the Italian city of Assisi on February 29, with details for the events in Asia and Oceania yet to be announced.

The International Tennis Federation (ITF) has postponed the Fed Cup Asia Oceania group-1 womens tennis tournament, by at least three weeks, according to a release from the All India Tennis Association (AITA) on Monday.

The event was originally scheduled to be hosted by China in Dongguan, but had to be moved by the ITF owing to travel restrictions in China following the virus outbreak. The rescheduled competition was to be held in Nur Sultan, Kazakhstan, from February 4 to 8. It was noted that the government of Kazakhstan had prohibited the organisation of international sports events in the country, due to the threat of coronavirus.

The ITF is working with the Womens Tennis Association (WTA) to ensure availability of top players and are also exploring further venue options to host this event, said AITA CEO Akhouri Bishwadeep, in the statement.

Fed Cup Asia Oceania group-1 womens tennis tournament postponed - The Hindu

Posted: 1:00pm Thursday 30 Jan, 2020 | By Jamie Troughton jamie@dscribe.co.nz

Evy Leibfarth turned up Down Under this time last year with stars in her eyes and the fresh-faced enthusiasm only a 15-year-old can bring.

The American teen shyly introduced herself to kayaking stars Jess Fox and Luuka Jones and proudly proclaimed them her idols as she watched their classy performances, on and off the water.

A year later, as she lines up at this weekend's Oceania canoe slalom championships in Auckland, the paddling prodigy will be eyeing Australia's Fox and New Zealand's Jones as near-equals after an astonishing break-out 2019 season.

She became the youngest person to win a world cup medal, picking up C1 bronze in Solvenia, and made a series of finals in both K1 and C1 across the world cup rounds and the world championships.

"My paddling took a huge jump - just being in the presence of so many top athletes and being able to watch and learn from them really helped my paddling," Leibfarth says at the Vector Wero Whitewater Park in Auckland this week.

"I was just really excited the whole year to keep training and pushing and I'm really excited for this upcoming year, starting with the Oceania championships."

She celebrated her 16th birthday on her first trip to New Zealand this week, although the Bryson City, North Carolina native met Jones and Fox at the Australian championships last year.

"Both of them have such a unique style and each does certain moves better than others and I just love to watch them and see how smooth they are in the water. Off the water, they just have such a great attitude towards the sport and they get a lot of younger kids into it and I really admire that about them."

Evy Leibfarth (United States) training at the Vector Wero Whitewater Centre in Auckland.

The Oceania championships double as the first Olympic qualifier for many Australian, New Zealand and Pacific Island paddlers, with the second in Australia next month. Leibfarth has her own Olympic trials in Oklahoma in April - where she's heavily favoured to book spots in both C1 and K1 - while Fox and Jones have already pre-qualified with their world championship performances and just need their selections confirmed.

Fox, who became the most successful paddler in world championship history last year, was herself a precocious teen, winning Olympic silver in the K1 in London in 2012. She predicts a big future for Leibfarth too.

"She was catapulted onto the world tour last year with some amazing performances by a 15-year-old so she's definitely one to watch," Fox says.

"She's a bubbly, exciting paddler to watch and she can put down some fast paddling. She's just really tidy and clean and gets through the gates well, she's got a lot of potential and progress to make, being so young."

This will be the fourth time Fox has competed at Vector Wero and she's also looking forward to reigniting her long rivalry with Jones, with the pair sharing podiums in some big events in recent years.

"It's great to have such awesome competition close to home - I've known Luuka for years now and she's one of the strongest paddlers in the world and on her home course, she'll be hard to beat. I think back on Rio and how special it was to share the podium with her and to have New Zealand and Australia side by side, like a sisterhood in a way. It was nice to have the Southern Hemisphere represented when it's such a European-centred sport and the growth of the sport in the Southern Hemisphere is fantastic."

For Jones, having some of the world's best paddlers come to her home course is immensely gratifying.

"It's a huge weekend having the Oceania champs in New Zealand and it's really special having so many internationals over to compete with," Jones says.

"It's such an awesome whitewater course and I feel quite proud to show them where we train. Jess is an amazing paddler - the most successful in our sport - and just to have her here to measure myself against is pretty exciting."

While selection rivalry will be particularly intense in the men's K1 - where both New Zealand and Australia have qualified boat spots for Tokyo - the men's C1 is wide open with a continental qualification still up for grabs between paddlers from Australia, New Zealand and the Cook Islands.

Entry is free for spectators across all three days, with the championships starting at 9am on Saturday.

Kobelco has chosen TRT, Tidd Ross Todd, as its distributor in Australia and New Zealand. The announcement comes after longstanding distributor ACM (Australian Crane & Machinery) said it was relinquishing the deal.

TRT and their Queensland-based subsidiary, TRT (Aust) Pty Ltd, will provide Kobelco crane customers in the Oceania region with technical information, parts supply, and sales of new Kobelco cranes.

Kobelco said: This new partnership reflects both organisations commitment to outstanding customer service and support throughout the region. We are excited to combine TRTs great customer support and expertise with Kobelco cranes, which are valued in the industry for their high performance, having earned a reputation as the most reliable brand of crawler cranes on the market.

TRT, a New Zealand based company operating across Oceania and established in 1967, have built up many decades of expertise in the crane industry. TRT is highly respected and well experienced with crawler cranes, including Kobelco, the Japanese manufacturer says. This new partnership will reshape the way customers are supported moving forward.

In a December 2019 email announcing the end of ACMs deal, MD Ben Potter said the company would be continuing to supply the local crane industry, through a new partnership with Zoomlion.

Advent of autonomous vehicles and increasing demand for semi-autonomous vehicle The demand for semi-autonomous vehicles has increased significantly in the last few years, which has accelerated the growth of the blind spot solutions market.

New York, Jan. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Blind Spot Solutions Market by Product Type, Technology, End Market, Electric Vehicle, Vehicle Type and Region - Global Forecast to 2027" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p05781861/?utm_source=GNW Semi-autonomous vehicles are self-driven vehicles with the ability to sense their environment and navigate to the destination with partial human-based physical input or voice commands.

The main reason for the increasing adoption of semi-autonomous and autonomous vehicles is increased safety.Therefore, a large number of safety features will be integrated into such vehicles.

In semi-autonomous vehicles, the environment around the vehicle is detected through sensors such as radar, ultrasonic, LiDAR, and cameras.Blind spot solutions such as blind spot detection system, surround view camera, and digital side view systems can also be used to sense the environment better.

Hence, increasing adoption of semi-autonomous and autonomous vehicles will boost the blind spot solutions market.
