Pokémon Acanthite Forums

Welcome to the Acanthite League!

The first official Acanthite League is here! Remember at this time we still need more leaders before we can start, so sign up!

Note the league is held on Shoddy Battle.

Objective:

The goal is simple. As a challenger, defeat the 8 gym leaders and Elite 4 to become the champion. As a leader/Elite 4 member, you must do your very best to stop the opposing challenger. The champion must defend their title, and, if they lose, they will give it to the winner. Gym leaders are only replaced if they choose so/retire or are inactive.

Rules:

Sleep/Freeze clause: No more than one pokemon on a team can be asleep/frozen at one time.

Uber clause: Mewtwo, Mew, Ho-Oh, Wobbufet, Wynaut, Lugia, Latios, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Deoxys(all forms), Garchomp, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Darkrai, Shaymin-s and Arceus are all banned.

Evasion clause: No accuracy decreasing or evasion heightening moves can be used, e.g Sand Attack and Double Team. Accupressure is also banned.

Hax item clause: No items that rely on luck can be used, such as Focus Band, Razor Fang, Quick Claw and Kings Rock.

OHKO clause: No one hit KO moves are aloud.

Timed battle: Move selection is timed.

Soul Dew clause: Soul Dew is banned.

Species clause: You may not use more than one of the same pokemon on a team.

Challengers may use a maximum of 12 pokemon. This prevents making new teams to counter every gym. :P

WE NEED SOMEBODY TO REPLACE GORMY.

We ALWAYS want more challengers. Remind me if I've missed people out.

Sign me up as the second Gym Leader. Poison-type.

Main:
I wanted to do psychic but I dont think we can sign up for elite four
Alternate:
If I cant do psychic than I'll do a water gym maby like 5 or 6.

Thanks, Nyumi! We should get through this quickly.

Psychic it is! ^___^

oh well, i kinda like this, if possible i wanted to be in charge of an Electric Gym, if possible the 8th, but if not, the 5th is also ok ;)

I don't care where I am, but I'd really like to sign up with Dark types. As a gym leader that is.

Lv 100 battles yeah?

Read the 1st post. I'm battling with dark types.

Pick a different type.

Me? Dragon. E4 No. 4!

I can post my team if you want.

But I need to ask a question. Can you throw in some other random Pokemon to... a good word would be SUPPORT...your team? Like in DP Volkner had an Octillerry to 'wash' out Ground types, the only weakness of Electrics?

Sorry I meant ground types. I was just thinking about dark types at the time lol.

Yeah sorry, ground types.

Course. But at least four pokemon in your team must be of the selected type.
