    4)No cheating.Meaning..Don't lie and do the challenge and fake what you're doing.(Ex. Username does the challenge.Username decides to lie and pretend that he did new game so he could become a winner.





    The Clause Effects:

  • I've been slowly progressing through Ruby (seriously, I spent too much time on SS >.< ) and am around the end of Petalburg Forest with:

    Mudkip ♂ - Zuzu
    Poochyena ♀ - Nana
    Ralts ♀ - Ruru

    You may notice that I am also matching genders to Ruby's Pokémon - all his are female apart from Zuzu, which led to an hour of searching for a female Poochyena, but surprisingly, I encountered a female Ralts on the route BEFORE I would have expected to find Ralts. o.O
