If you don't read this post you will probably be very confused.
General Rules
-You will be responsible with keeping your own profile up to date and accurate.
-Be literate. Leet speak is not allowed under any circumstances on these forums, not even in OOC.
-Be polite. Don't jump to conclusions, start flaming, start bothering people, or harass anyone. If you see an offensive post, do not post telling someone to edit it. Hit the report button and let someone else handle it. Doing otherwise will count as spam.
-Do not spam. Obviously.
-Post in the proper places. Do not make multiple topics, use the reply button for such situations, but be certain to stay on topic. (Example: If you are keeping an in-character journal, make all of your journal posts in your journal topic).
-You cannot have more than one account per person. Multiple accounts per IP are allowed if people are sharing one computer.
Pokemon Rules
-You can own up to 15 Pokemon.
-Each Pokemon can know up to 10 moves at one time.
-Each Pokemon can have one ability.
-The trainer and mods are the only people allowed to control a trainer's Pokemon. Another trainer attempting to do so falls under god-moding and power-playing.
-You cannot spawn Pokemon during RP to capture or battle.
-Each Pokemon can learn attacks that their former evolutionary form can learn, but they cannot learn moves that their evolved forms can learn.
RPing rules
-Do not God Mode. (Making yourself invincible.)
-Do not Power Play. (Making your attacks land all the time or do impossible damage)
Example of a good line in an RP:
... she threw the Pokeball at the Rattata...
Example of a bad line in an RP:
... she threw the Pokeball and hit the Rattata, watching as it was sucked up and immediately captured...
Battles
We're going to steal the Serebii ASB Attack List
- A win gives your Pokemon exp.
- A forfeit when one or both Pokemon are at under 50% health and/or energy results in a win. This only works if that Pokemon has not won in a forfeit match for two battles. (Acceptable: Forfeit, victory, victor, forfeit.)
- A capture results in a win.
- The amount of exp given depends on the level difference between your Pokemon and the opponent Pokemon.
-11 to more : no exp
-10 to -6 : .25 exp
-5 to -3 : .5 exp
-2 to +2 = 1 level
+3 to +5 = 2 levels
+5 to +10 = 3 levels (But seriously. Good luck beating it)
To spawn and battle a wild Pokemon you will need to request a referee to give you between one and three wild Pokemon to choose from. You will need to pick if you wish to fight any of these Pokemon. If not, you may continue on your journey and ask for another chance. If you decide to attack one Pokemon, the others will flee. If you try to take on more than one, all of them will flee, so you must pick one or pick none.
A battle will take place in rounds. Each round will have up to three "turns", or actions a Pokemon can take. They can either be attacks, or actions. Pokemon will usually begin a battle at 100% health and 100% energy. Energy is used to take actions, and if it runs to 0%, the Pokemon faints. If their Health runs to 0%, they will, of course, faint.
A fainted Pokemon can not be captured. No ifs ands or butts. You can also only fully heal your Pokemon at a Pokemon Center, located in any town.
Attacks, status ailments, and abilities all work as in the latest Pokemon generation of games.
In trainer vs trainer battles, the trainers take turns with who attacks first. Example would be:
Round 1
Trainer 1 orders first
Trainer 2 orders second
Ref posts
Trainer 2 orders first
Trainer 1 orders second
