Is it ok to resumbit the Anime Challenge? Sorry as much time as I spend here I dont really know the small things like when or how its ok to resubmit something, but I just thought itd be nice having a pretty popular one back but I wasnt sure if i could or if someone was waiting on it already and all...

You could do it yourself if no one is planning on reviving the challenge. As far as I know, no one is planning on doing it.

Hello, Challenge Idea Community

I'll get right to the gist of it. There was a challenge a way back when, That I joined and helped out on it for a while before my life got busy

https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=263405

It was a really cool concept for a challenge and the people that were all a part of it were a great help and made it feel alive in the long run. It see

My main questions are: Do you all think it would be an alright idea to bring this back from the grave? Is there already something similar to this that would conflict? and of course Do you think it would be fun?"

I've played numerous challenges ever since I joined the forum back in 2012, but this one looks pretty unique. I would definitely try this one out when you revive it. It looks interesting.

Normally I would just private message you, but since you already posted here, might as well respond aha. Anyway, are you taking on the challenge as well? I didn't see any indication in your post and we do require that challenge hosts partake in the challenges they post as well, so I just want to make sure. I know sometimes people forget to include their sign up, so I figured I'd ask.

Of Course!, I will, for the most part I didn't want to clutter the Rules with My entry and I was getting ready to put in my own form underneath. I rather have someone ask me if I'm doing my own challenge and explain to make the main rules as clean as possible

So I've started working on and off on a combined Monosize challenge where it'd be like any other monos but all within the same height or weight "class". I divvied up the classes myself and tried to make it so that I could get as close as I could to an even number of fully evolved mons in each. Here are the classes

Monoheight:
0.1-0.9m
1.0-1.2m
1.3-1.5m
1.6-1.9m
2.0-14.5m

Monoweight:
0-20.0kg
20.1-35.0kg
35.1-60.0kg
60.1-120.0kg
120.1-999.9kg

Most of my time has been put into making reference sheets, since it's hard to read which mons are in each class from the Bulbapedia pages. You can see the first 2 height class sheets here and here.

What do you guys think? Do you think people would play it? Also, can you think of any fun themes/ideas for what to name the classes? Thanks.

Hey ppl. I came up with Nuzlocke challenge called the Animelocke. I'm LPing it on my channel would like some feedback on the rules. Anything that could make it better. Thanks :D

Animelocke rules
1. Your starter Pokemon is the "Hero" (Think Rorouni Kenshin) of the story. Just like any good anime your hero should be with you throughout the story. So, you can NOT put your starter in the PC box. If your hero (starter) dies than your strongest leveled Pokemon MUST give up his life to revive your hero.
2. You can choice ONE Pokemon to be your "Hero Pokemon's" rival. The "Rival Pokemon" (Think Saskue) can take your "Hero Pokemon" spot and become the Hero Pokemon. (I know sounds confusing) The Rival mon can only do that AFTER being with your party for 3 gyms.
3. Healing items (senzu bean) can only be used during MAJOR battles (Gym Leaders, Rivals, Evil Team bosses, Elite four) and outside of battles.
4. You must nickname every Pokémon you catch based off an anime reference.
5. Nuzlocke Clauses: These are additional rules. They are not mandatory.
6. Shiny Clause: If I encounter a shiny Pokémon I can catch it, even if it is not my first encounter.
7. Dupes and Species Clause: If you have already catch a Pokémon or any Pokémon it's evolution line you do not have to catch it.

I'm thinking of reviving the Ultimate Gym Leader challenge. Unless Sydian wanna revive it? :3

It was one of my favorite challenge to do. So I would love to redo it once more. Anyone interested? This was the old post that died


I've been waiting for Necrum to make me a CSS so I could revive this for over a year. Momma Syd gave me the green light but if you wanna do it, go ahead :P

I don't think the actual Nuzlocke thread is the best place to put this, so I'll put it here:

If anyone is interested, I am currently participating in a Nuzlocke competetion through r/Communitylocke2017. We're all playing through Emerald and collecting points via certain rules and whoever gets the most points at the end apparently recieves prizes. Thought it might be cool to get some of you seasoned challenge people in on the fun. My reddit username is Eflatmajor in case you see me over there.

Here is my idea:

Movie Genre Challenge

Overview: Do a play-through using a team themed after a genre of the latest movie you watched in the movie theatre.

Challenge rules:
- If the first Pokemon on your team is not found early in the game, then you can use your starter until you find the first member of your team.
- HM slaves are allowed only if necessary

Your team must have a certain theme to one of the following movie genres:
- Sci-fi: Any Pokemon that is based on machines, artificial intelligence, and extraterrestrial life
- Horror: Any Pokemon that resembles ghosts, the undead, and giant monsters
- Crime/Gangster: Any Pokemon with a mobster-like motif (in both appearance and in Pokedex entries).
- Musical/Dance: Any Pokemon based on a dancer/singer or has a music motif
- Fantasy: Any Pokemon with a medieval motif (dragons, knights, archers, elves, dwarves, spell casters (mages), kings, queens, court jesters, etc.)
