One of us. One of usssss........ One of ussssssssss........................ Oh and welcome <3

10. But yes, it is entirely possible, and for some, extremely easy. Finishing the league is a matter of having a team that you can work with without changing the moves. Does your team HAVE to be a triples team? No. Does it have to WORK in triples? Yes. Allow me! <3 Clear Bell (Bronzong) @ Light Clay Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 152 Atk / 4 Def / 100 SDef Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd) - Gyro Ball - Light Screen - Reflect - Stealth Rock Kabutops 2.0 (Carracosta) (M) @ Liechi Berry Trait: Sturdy EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Shell Smash - Aqua Jet - Waterfall - Stone Edge Standard, right? Lead with Bronzong and set up screens to allow Carracosta to come in, Shell Smash safely, and sweep dem single battles like no tomorrow. Clear Bell (Bronzong) @ Light Clay Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 152 Atk / 4 Def / 100 SDef Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd) - Gyro Ball - Light Screen - Reflect - Stealth Rock Kabutops 2.0 (Carracosta) (M) @ White Herb Trait: Solid Rock EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Def Relaxed Nature (+Def, -Spd) - Shell Smash - Aqua Jet - Waterfall - Stone Edge Abiding by the restrictions set upon moves, I instead alter everything else on Carracosta, which is perfectly fine. What's this? We now have a massive tank with further amplified defenses thanks to Bronzong's Light Screen and Reflect? Whoa, that's pretty useful in double and triple battles! Kairyu (Dragonite) (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Multiscale EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Dragon Dance - Dragon Claw - Fire Punch - Roost That's one sexy Dragonite, isn't it? Oh no, here comes Hardy with his Trick Room, my team is too fast, what do I do?! D: Kairyu (Dragonite) (F) @ Iron Ball Trait: Multiscale EVs: 252 HP / 252 Atk / 4 SDef Brave Nature (+Atk, -Spd) - Dragon Dance - Dragon Claw - Fire Punch - Roost End result with 0 speed IVs: 74 speed. Problem solved, and the moves remain the same. If people read the main League page, it very clearly says the following: And that's an image, not a copy-paste. People shouldn't get mad when they weren't challenged to a single battle, because it's not up to them. In making your team for the league, this should be brought into consideration. "Should I use Stone Edge when I could use Rock Slide instead and be less helpless in triple battles?" "Is Surf a good idea when I could end up hurting myself? Maybe I could deal with Hydro Pump instead, or even Scald?" "I have Earthquake on every Pokemon, I won't stand a chance!" Now we come to the bigger part, and the reason anyone who doesn't face this League usually tries to use against us. No legendaries? Boohoo, you can't use one or two Pokemon and actually have to deviate from your comfort zone and find something else that works. It's a rule of the league, and a condition given to everyone involved. It's not as if we're handing our Psychic leader Latios, Azelf and Jirachi and saying you can't use legends. This is a terrible argument, for at least two different reasons: One- Sorry, but last I checked Suicune is actually extremely good, and Zapdos was OU last gen? lol they're definitely not as bad as you're making them out to be, and singling out Articuno alone is stupid because it's well known to be a pretty bad legend, as awesome as it is. It's not as if you'd use it were it allowed, and the case is the same with most of the non-uber legends as well. This leads to... Two- Would you use Entei? Would you use Moltres? If they're "not on par" with other Pokemon, you wouldn't use them regardless, and instead you would use "mons like Scizor, or Ferrothorn." Let's see, Heatran is a common dispute; I do believe many other things have Flash Fire, and many other Pokemon have 130 base Sp.Atk, and many other Pokemon can use Stealth Rock and Roar, and Substitute and Torment; my point is, it's not rocket science to use something else other than any given legend. The leaders are given the same restriction, and in that sense, it's still perfectly fair. Nobody with a hint of common sense questions rules of the server, so what gives anyone the right to question the rules of the Reborn league? If you want to fight 17 standard matches go join a monotype tournament on Smogon or the PO server, and we'll keep the main selling point of the Reborn league (that is, its uniqueness) intact. It's been running for well over, what, two years now? I think we know how we want to run the Reborn (do you get the emphasis yet?) league. Thanks. /thread

So I know lots of the new members are hurting for some $R, and short of the weekly Caption Contest that Mael always wins and dead art contests, the ways of earning it are quickly dwindling; all this said, does anyone have any ideas for similar things we can do / does anyone wanna host things themselves? I know Erick hosted the art contests with Amethyst as a second judge, and then there's Stein's AMV contest, so let's come up with more fun things for everyone to do!

Sometimes I wonder what the actual situation is in pictures like these... Rules -There will be three judges, Amethyst and two other members, any of whom are free to volunteer. First come first serve -Being a judge will mean you cannot enter the contest yourself. -Members can PM me images for future weeks contests. Their use is not guaranteed. -If a Member's image is chosen, they may not enter the contest that week -You are limited to one caption per week, but it can be changed before the contest close -The contest ends on SUNDAY at 12 AM EST Prizes -Each judge's favorite caption will receive $R400. If this means three different people get $R400 or one gets $R1200- so be it. -One random entrant each week will be given $R300. This is independent of the winner. Judges will be included in this draw. -If a Member's image is chosen, they will be awarded $R500 This week's Image~ To enter, just post the caption you think best suits the image in this topic~

But then again, the Choice Scarf exists so I guess it's your call =p

Knowing Cyrus he's comparing it to when Team Fortress 2 became Free to Play (f2p) and everyone swarmed to get it << >> THAT IS NOT THE CASE THOUGH EVERYONE IS HERE OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL I LOVE YOU ALL <333333333333 ...yeah. welcome~

Welcome!~ Maybe I'll be able to get Nyu to share his Pikachu secrets with you =p

She's right, it may not be relevant to much but look through this forum specifically and I think you'll find a few other things that are similar to this and were fine. And to be honest, I lol'd.

>Call us biased >Vote Australia ... << >> Anyway this should really be your own decision, since it's basically your vacation; it's a question of which you want more, I think... Go to the moon!

... Banned because you just reinforced his ban of you

^ In seriousness though if I typed out something like Scarlet's I'd be here all night; it's just too much. Movie: I watched Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol on the last possible day (kinda awesome btw); pretty sure it's 2011. Album: The Heart and The Broken Compass (Last Winter) or Siberia (LIGHTS) are the only two I can think of atm, love both Anime: I watched a few, but the only new one (that is, 2011) would have to be the Persona 4 Animation TV Show: What Ame said ^2 Game: Pokemon B/W, uh... Sonic Generations I guess? I don't keep up much QQ

I just found this I can't resist He tried to tell him. Meanwhile, JUDGES!
