Gather round, gather round, I actually have some rather exciting news for everyone!
We're like, close to being ready (yes, I know I keep saying this, but I mean it this time), but to not put a giant bundle of stress on all of our leaders, we've decided to take on two of the people from the community to assist us.
Do you think you have what it takes to hold a position in the Redemption League? Do you not crack under pressure? Do you think you can stand up to some of Reborn's finest battlers in fierce competition? Then try your hand at trying to secure a spot in the Redemption League!
We're currently looking for a maximum of two competitors who think they can handle being a top-notch battler, given certain circumstances. If you think you're suited for the job, feel free to toss me a PM with your Showdown name and which of the following types you think you can create a Monotype-team for that will get you through a short trial period: Grass, Fairy and Ice.
So keeping things simple for those who don't read: You choose either Grass, Fairy or Ice as your type and create a team with one of these types, in monotype format, without a Mega Evolution or legendary Pokémon.
If you don't think your battling standards are worthwhile, don't bother shooting me with a PM. This is serious business and I do not want to waste my time with people who hesitate and think they don't have what it takes.
Now, there are some very strict rules I must enforce here, because again- We don't play games at Redemption HQ.
If you're trying for one of these positions, you must abide by these rules at all times:
- Your team must be according to Redemption League standards, this means no legendary Pokémon, no Mega Evolution for these leaders specifically and only 3 of the same item per team allowed.
- We expect you to meet a certain requirement when you try out. By requirement, I mean that you will face off against 7 different teams, used by members of the Redemption League team (not the leaders, but the actual staff themselves) and you are required to achieve one of the following: 5 wins or 36 KO's scored, spread across all 7 battles.
- I have to express this once more because people might not read everything I type out; You are not allowed to use a Mega Evolution or legendary Pokémon.
For a full ban list & additional rules you have to uphold, open this spoiler tag:
- Everyone is free to apply through me by sending me a PM with the position they will try out for. But be warned, we will select a handful of people who can actually proceed with this. In fact, we will only allow ten people to participate in this. It's not a "first come, first go" thing, we will go through every single applicant and discuss accordingly.
Oh and one more thing before I end this off- Your team should be prepared for anything. From weather teams, to stall teams or even hyper offense. Feel free to create a team in whatever battle style you wish, be it singles, doubles or triples.
You guys, gals and non-binaries have until 2 PM next week Saturday (the 31st) to send me your applications abiding the rules and explanation I have given in this thread.
I wish you all good luck if you're competing, and I'll be seeing you on the battlefield!
PS: Oh wait, one last thing.. We're keeping track of the scores and whatnot, if there happens to be an exact tie between people, they will fight head-on against eachother.
I.. Forgot to mention something really important; You have to use the leaders' ace Pokémon in your respective teams when trying out for them!
For Grass, you have to use Serperior on your team.
For Fairy, you have to use Sylveon on your team.
For Ice, you have to use Aurorus on your team.
Okay that's really it, cya!
