Welcome to Kanto!
Welcome to the Kanto League - Again! Based on Pokemon Showdown, we're replicating the Kanto League in competitive battling
format. You'll be able to face the 8 gym leaders, the Elite Four, the Champion, along with a few familiar and new faces!
Can you make your way through Kanto once again?
General Rules
You're only allowed to use one team throughout your entire run through the league. You WILL be tracked, and any battles with a change in team will NOT be counted.
Changes in EVs, movesets, items, and natures are allowed in between battles, though.
In order to challenge the Champion, you'll need to beat the Elite Four.
In order to challenge the Elite Four, you need to have defeated any combination of minor and major gym leaders adding up to eight. The Elite Four are free to be challenged in any order, along with the minor leaders. Major leaders have to be defeated in the order of the games.
All battles are 6v6 and in single battle format.
This uses Smogon's X/Y OU rules format which you can find here.
All Pokemon in the Uber category are banned. Find them here.
Battles on Showdown are done on PC's battle server.
Leaders as well as challengers must post their battle replays to confirm and count the battle.
Rematch Windows:
Minor Leaders - Two challenges every 6 hours.
Leaders - Two challenges every 12 hours.
Elite Four - One challenge every 12 hours.
Champion - One challenge every 24 hours.
Misc. - Dependent on the character being challenged.
If you disconnect, retry the battle. Save the replays at all times if there is a type of conflict/dispute.
Follow PC's rules.
This follows the Kanto League in it's most recent state. (HeartGold and SoulSilver) with some changes.
All Major Leaders use their Kanto Leaders team from the PWT. Minor Leaders use teams based on the Kanto Dex.
Only one Mega Evolution per team.
This thread is meant for all things dealing with this league, from questions to signing up. PM, VM, or use other ways of communication to set up battles, however. Do not set up battles here.
