Is it possible to change the scoring now? With team set ups the way they are, it is probably better to have either one of two options:

1: Draws count for points. Similar to point scoring in hockey and soccer standings, it gives teams credit for playing well, but not getting the win. In this case, I propose we award 2 points for a win, none for a loss, subtract a point for getting swept, and no additional points awarded for sweeping - as the award is already in the penalty of the other team.

2: Tie-breakers. Keep the scoring the way it is, including sweep rules, but instead add a tie-breaker match, between two winning trainers from the match ups, chosen at random. For example, Team Fantasy vs. Team Hope, week 1, random(gameboy3333 or Ongakujin) vs. random(Novkris or Jth). I realize it's not as balanced in all cases with experience and all, but it also puts more weight on every single match, since you really want to win 3 matches so you're not forced to have a mismatch such as could be the case in this situation.

Comments?

We can't judge how close a match was by how many pokes were left most of the time. The match may have been a 4-0, but at one point it may have been a, "You sweep me or I sweep you" sort of situation. So it may actually have been a lot closer than it appears.
