Heart & Soul League

[Greene1516]

I've been thinking a few things; do challengers have to go through a gym in a certain order? If not their should be a form to challenge, it would look bad if we had gym leaders effectively challenging challengers because they didn't specify a gym.

Also, will there be a rule for gym leaders not being able to challenge, because I personally think it looks bad if a league's own gym leaders are challenging it. What do other people think??

For the Choma League we let the challenger have 8 pokemon total, that way they can switch around a bit.

That's not what I meant. I meant that if there is no order then the challenger should have to specify what gym he/she is challenging or have their challenge declined as it shouldn't be up t us to go out and challenge them.

But I don't think challengers should be restricted to what Pokemon they use throughout the league and since we all have different rules for our gyms that would be partially impossible.

 

[RAcastBlaster]

True...honestly I'm not sure if we threw that rule out or not actually. It was suggested before I revised my current rule to what it is now.

Anwho, it's easier if challengers just pick and choose what gym they face.

Wow, I missed a lot.

Challengers can challenge gyms in any order.
And also, a challenger must specify the gym he/she wants to battle, or else that person doesn't get to battle.

Okay....for E4 Positions:

You must:

Not be new to competitive battling. (If you're new, forget E4 positions.)
Allow me to test battle you over wi-fi or shoddy. (shoddy preferably because my e4 team isn't fully assembled.)
Win against me or lose 1-0 or 2-0 in the test battle.

 

[RAcastBlaster]

Frozen, lemme know when your team is done if you want to test it out.

magicarp pwnz all i'll try you out for a e4 spot

magicarp pwnz all i'll try you out for a e4 spot

Me too, seeing how all of your gym slots are taken up.

 

[~Frozen Darkness~]

not all the slots are taken up yet. 3 more positions are open still.

 

[ckn]

o ok well can you let me know when we can be tested?

 

[Greene1516]

Guys my impression from the OP was that E4 had to decide on a type as well that hasn't been taken, though correct me if I am wrong Frozen.

Frozen, is it understood that Item Clause if off for all gyms except those that specified otherwise. If not, could you specify in the Special Rules for my gym that Item Clause is off? Thanks in advance. I'm almost done with my team. It should be ready by the end of the weekend. I hope the league starts soon. Can gym leaders also challenge other gyms? In another league I'm in, it's allowed, so would this be allowed here too?

It's not mentioned in the OP. My personal opinion is that it looks really bad if a league is challenged by its own leaders and that it shouldn't be allowed, I mean, it's sort of stupid since a leader can't finish the league because they can't just take their own badge. But it would be good practice for leaders to practice new teams and formations with each other outside of league battles.

The Item Clause is non-standard. It's an invention of Nintendo that really is just pointless.

It's far from pointless; it stops people abusing things like Focus Sash and Leftovers.

Oh yeah before I forget guys, could each of the leaders send me a visitor comment with the name of their badge and any ideas they may have for them so I can get to making them.

 

[i love garchomp]

i cant wait for challengers

 

[redragon94]

shouldnt there a dragon type as well in the remaining gym types?

 

[i love garchomp]

dragon is for elite 4 frozen darkness is that one

Question, why do you feel the need to put in-game names? It looks rather silly, particularly by mine >_>
