So, guys, I've learned the process of thinking! With this new process that I totally didn't have before, an idea came up with me- I mean, I came up with an idea. Namely, a ToK gym/E4 system. Here's roughly what I've thought up so far. - Will be run using games, not simulators. There's no point if you can just pick your stats and instawin. - No legendaries will be allowed, for challengers or defenders. - At request, some other pokémon may be banned or restricted. - Will be run on gen 4 to start with, to allow people time to actually get money and get gen 5. - Champion position will be handed down from victor to victor. - Gym leaders and E4 members are stuck with their elements and Pokés unless they no longer have access to certain pokés. - Challengers may not change pokés mid-challenge. - Champions must use the same pokés they used in their challenge. - If you are beaten by a gym leader, you may challenge again from that point. - If you are beaten by E4/champion, you must challenge from the start of E4 again. - The first 6 gym leaders may have up to 4 pokémon, with up to 1 without their chosen typing. - The last 2 gym leaders and first elite may have up to 5 pokémon, with up to 1 without their chosen typing. - The second and third elites may have up to 5 pokémon, with up to 2 without their chosen typing. - The fourth elite may have 6 pokémon, with up to 2 without their chosen typing. - The champion and challengers may have any 6 pokémon that are not legendary/banned. - If a challenger has been waiting on a gym leader/elite/champion for 14 days, and this member has not given a reason for being unable to accept the challenge, the challenger wins by default. - If the two people just aren't on at the same times, but they are both able to challenge, the above will not come into play. - Multiple people can challenge at any one time. If the champion changes just as you're going to the fourth elite and the new one's picks annihilate yours, deal with it. So, 3 questions; 1: Does this sound like a good idea? 2: Is there anything I should change? (With the exception to no simulators) 3: Any volunteers for Gyms/E4, if I do set this up? Ah yes, dibs on a ghost gym somewhere in the first 6

The legendaries argument is also for another reason. See, as far as I know, within the pokeverse, there's only 1 of each legendary. As such, if both people in the same fight have the same legendary, it wouldn't correctly resemble a pokeverse system, no? So then, ensure only one of each is allowed, you say? Then you get the people who'll inevitably complain about gym leader A being locked in with legendary poke B and thus no one else being allowed to use it. So then unlock gym/E4/challenge picks? Then you get people complaining about how it's too hard to set up against. And other generic merning. |

Would Phione be included in that? The whole method to get it implies there could be multiples. |

If there are any legendaries that there are implied to be more than one of that are just stupidly rare, those would be acceptable, so long as they're not overly hax. Until we get the specifications worked out, however, I'll keep the generic wall up. |

Dunno, never actually got that far on platinum. Was trying to make some headway on it at the start of the month then fell behind. Reminds me, I should get around to doing that nuzlocke run on pearl I was planning to do years ago. |

As I recall, yes it would. Also, I can't partake in any non-simulator battling also due to a lack of WiFi access. |

You're not afraid of the dark, are you?

Yes, he appears in Turnback Cave, but I think if you wait to get him then you miss out on a super awesome move/forme/stat/something. Don't quite remember. as for availability, DPP don't work with WPA encryption. It'd be silly to change the encryption for my whole house (at least four other people in the household would be up in arms over it) for this, so I'll have to pass. Y'know, the 8th gym leader in Kanto (in the anime) had a legendary who wasn't of the chosen type. Perhaps the 8th gym leader or the champion could be allowed a legendary? |

I'm sure i don't miss anything. Origin and Altered share a level-up movepool and Griseous Orb is located in a portal behind the place Giratina was in D/P, so... |
