Kiozo

If that's the case it's still not fair because he had shown up for this, and because of something he did not do, he ended up being put in this position. Week one - my opponent ended up having to leave within 2 days of the matchups posted. If something happened and he didn't know, there was no way that he would have been able to come back. If I was the reason that it needed to be redone, and he played by the rules 100%, there's not a single reason he should be held accountable.

Hi Haven, gotta give credit where credit is due. Thanks to Roo for posting the Roster again, as I managed to well...pass out xD. So just for ease's sake, who is going to be able to play next week?

Hey all! Welcome to PokéNations - Week Two! This week is a little different. You're going to be restricted to not being able to switch. You also cannot use items. Volt Switch, Baton Pass, Parting Shot and U-Turn are all banned by association of self switching. Mega-Evolutions are banned by association of items. Roar, Whirlwind and other opponent effecting moves are not banned. Each Nation will be restricted to Pokémon up to and including Pokémon in our 6th Generation Overused tier. This means that Ubers Pokémon will not be valid. Each Nation is also restricted to their respective typing. The matchups are as follows! Haven v Mythic Aurora v Apophyll Volcanic v Ruin The clauses are as follows, and pretty standard; Sleep Clause, Freeze Clause, Species Clause, and Self-KO Clause. If you would like to battle with additional clauses; that is between battlers to discuss. So, you've got until Sunday, 11:59 PM EST in order to submit rosters. Matchups will be posted soon after. You will have exactly one week to complete all matches from the time they are posted. Rosters will include 5 people to play matches, and 2 reserve members in case a participant cannot play. Nation leaders, please reply with your rosters!

Late; but mega's don't have any special bans here. Literally treat them as any other Pokemon that you would consider that week. Anywho, congradulations Haven! We successfully won 3-2 and took down the opponents! That's a nice, nice start. Let's keep it going, shall we?~

Sure do. If it's needed, I'll show it, but it's just for a safety, not a requirement xD. All the battles have concluded. I'll update threads (soon™) and week one will be logged. Thanks for participating all and see you soon~ Congrats to the winners!

If the matches are reported with both sides saying they won, the log will show us what really happened. That should do it! Thanks for posting your rosters, leaders! Good luck to everyone and produce your best results! Feel free to post victories here.

The above posts are good things to note. You're not one of the roster because honestly you went less active as time went on in my presence, on top of the fact that everyone else picked up the pace. Not to mention, I found you more active in other nation's channels. There were several of us online while you were not; so you can only judge based off of what you saw, and so can I. This is what I saw. You made a very basic assessment on things in our Nation while others were going to length to pick out what would be good synergetically and against our opponents. Those people who made a higher assessment didn't all get picked either. There were two people in the position of having been active more at the start with us; I made sure to pick specifically one. There were really two people active (outside of me, and I don't mean you) the whole time and only one was picked out of that. Reevee was picked early because of an activity concern, I plan on sitting myself out next week anyway. It's not the end of the world. Not everyone gets picked. What bothers me about all this is that you didn't take the time and respect to say something about it with me in a more private area. Private messages on forum, server or the nation backchannel would have been ideal. This isn't a discussion thread, it's a roster thread. Not to mention, you would have learned all of this and that I was going to rotate in new people next week unless I couldn't do that. Instead, you chose a disrespectful route and I hope that you do not do so again. It's hard enough when you have to take things from a leader position. Please don't make them harder.

Hey all! I got the roster for the Haven nation. 1) Batl Skard 2) Rooreeloo 3) Reeveelution 4) Slant 5) Supernovae

Hey all! Welcome to PokéNations - Week One! This week is basically each Nation's crash course into the system; so we have decided to keep it simple! 6th Generation Overused Battles! Each Nation will be restricted to Pokémon up to and including Pokémon in our 6th Generation Overused tier. This means that Ubers Pokémon will not be valid. Each Nation is also restricted to their respective typing. The matchups are as follows! Haven v Ruin Aurora v Mythic Volcanic v Apophyll The clauses are as follows, and pretty standard; Sleep Clause, Freeze Clause, Species Clause, and Self-KO Clause. If you would like to battle with additional clauses; that is between battlers to discuss. So, you've got until Monday, 11:59 PM EST in order to submit rosters. I messed up and didn't produce the thread fast enough, so we'll have an extra day to submit rosters. Matchups will be posted soon after. You will have exactly one week to complete all matches from the time they are posted. Nation leaders, please reply with your rosters! (Edit; Please include 5 people.)

...lol that bias doesn't show. It's like saying "Which do you like better; vanilla or chocolate? But remember that chocolate tastes freaking GOOD!" If you ask, ask unbiased! Anywho; we have a less than active nation. I'm going to need to functionally take a list of people I can put up for week 1; and so far there hasn't been more than 4 people in server nation chat and hardly talk on here... We need that activity!

If I had to, I would say Skarmory as well. It's the best representative of what a haven would be out of the three.

Hey all! Kiozo here with some news about what's going on with PokéNations. Now, it's been a heavy few days with the direction of PokéNations. There's been a lot of significantly heated discussion and that just doesn't work. So we've been revamping things, some people might not like that, but there were too many that didn't like what was going on. For starters, Fezzdog and Secundum are joining Roo and I in this. So there's four people that are in charge! Point two; which is pretty big. We've done some changes to the types. They are as followed. 1 (Old Forest): Grass/Ghost/Ground 2 (Old Sky): Flying/Bug/Steel 3 (Old Volcanic): Fire/Electric/Poison 4 (Old Waterfall): Fighting/Psychic/Normal 5 (Old Space): Water/Dark/Fairy 6 (Old Ancient): Rock/Ice/Dragon So that's an interesting group. Every single nation recieved literally one change. This was done off of extensive collections of stats and rankings, off of things regarding averages for type relations, base stats, and more. There's one thing to note; Point three; these changes are not final. Although; this is what we've decided, and unless issues arise, this is what we're sticking with. But please; if you have issues, bring them up to us logically, and don't create a large issue. That'd be swell! Point four; We're gonna change up the Nation's naming...somehow. We're kinda tossing around it. For now; use your old names, but the naming will get settled very soon.

Hi friends! I'm back with some good and bad news. We might as well start in kind with the bad. So, it's been a long and rough time recently what with the various server and forum migrations. We've had some ups and downs regarding potential hosts, and for now it seems like we're going to do alright with the VPS. That being said, there were some lasting changes that took place. Since we've gone from place to place, we've had to change so much. A lot of this happened with behind the scenes technical issues, such as what kind of scripting and host platform we use. Thankfully, most of this doesn't change what you see on the surface. Unfortunately, many technical components to one of our biggest attractions ended up being irrelevant, and remaking them could take potentially too long. Not to mention, we've had a lot of issues in the past with things such as scaling the challenge accordingly, and keeping it available to everyone as opposed to a certain timeframe. As such, we're decided that we're going to retire the Reborn League. We really do not want to do that, but as it stands, we have to rebuild the league from the ground up for almost all pieces of it, and we really don't want to disclude anyone. On the other hand, having the leaders on demand at any given time is also very hard as everyone involved has different responsibilities to attend to, and we can't guarantee more than we already have. We're apologetic, but we're also very thankful to everyone who has challenged Reborn League! Thanks for making it successful thoughout it's life! Now, that leaves us wondering. What's next? There truly is no replacement for the league, but that doesn't mean we need to leave you stranded without activity. So, meanwhile Ame's working on the game still. Some others also have projects. Why don't I show you what I've been working on? The project today is PokéNations! You might have seen me detail small amounts of PokéNations in the other announcement a little while back. Well, with different things settling, it's now ready to be opened up! There's a seperate subforum newly created just for this project. You can find literally every detail you need created here! Before asking questions; check out the subforum! I'm sure all of your questions will be answered there! Including everything that was asked prior! If not, just send a pm and I'll add it into the main page. Now, I know a lot of you have been asking about the Create-A-Pokémon project. Yes, it's happening. Yes, it's happening soon. Let me make sure that we have PokéNations under control, and we'll bring that back to life in no time! Thanks for your patience on that subject. Now, I think that sums up everything that needed to be said. Thanks for your patience with everything that goes on, and I hope you enjoy what's to come! Time to go back to the old teambuilding grind. Does anyone else not like dealing with Mega-Evolutions? They're sure a pain...ah well. I'm going to grab a drink of water, hopefully this cough goes away..and I'll see you all back out there on the server! ~Kio

At this point, I'm finding things comical. I'm not just going to hand away a nation to a specific person, much less someone who thinks they deserve it automatically. It's not anything of the sort! I never said that there were 18 nations or 2 nations, as the two theories are suggesting. Maybe waiting and seeing will prove who is right; but that's another thing entirely. Also...I don't mind support of the topic through posting what you'd like, but some stuff here actually was off topic. Mostly wolf. <3
