  1. Better late than never I guess.

     

    Amethyst- As we all know, we wouldn't have this lovely little sometimes chaotic place to call an online home without you. Back when I discovered this place in 2012 I never would have imagined I'd still be here today. Granted, I'm not nearly as active as I once was but I still exist to some degree. Reborn made a rough part of my life a lot easier to deal with, and I would not have met any of the people I did during that time if not for you creating this community. So, thanks.

     

    Ikaru- Bro, you're the unsung hero of this place imo. Or rather, you're basically Reborn's Batman. You and Amethyst have held this place together very well, and all though your appearances to us mere mortals is rare I appreciate the times you do show up with some funny or sassy comment/reaction image. Hopefully we can play PSO2 together! You're an awesome man, Ika, and I don't pick favorites when it comes to admins but you're totally my favorite

     

    Azery- We don't speak as much anymore which is something I'd honestly like to change. I know we shoot the piss about each other all the time, but in the end I hope you know I still consider you a buddy. If nations 4 takes off(and at this point I'm still hoping it was some sick joke) we'll definitely have more shenanigans to experience.

     

    Brave- Even if you're auth again I'm not entirely sure you even check the forums. I'm gonna lean towards the off chance you do. I want to start off by saying sorry for my joke the other day. My fault for scheming with Neo honestly. I joke around a lot, too much if I'm being honest but I should have known better. That being said, I love the hell out of you man. You, as well as the rest of the SU gang are my closest online friends and I hope nothing ever changes that. I know you'll do great things. You have a strong sense of justice, and really great morals. I'm honored to be considered your friend.

     

    Azzie- Honestly, I can't say much but from what I gather you're a really good positive influence. And as the world is now that's a really good trait to have so keep it up.

     

    Bibs- Do I even need to say it? You already know.

     

    Godot- We meme each other a lot but the game discussions are always nice even if we don't see eye to eye on some things. Aerith sucks and XBC2 is better than XBC1.  There's not much fun if you agree with everything your pals say though, so the differing opinions are welcome and usually exciting.  If I'm being real, back when I first joined I never could have seen us interacting as often as we do now. Granted, back then I was more focused on playing Pokemon than anything else lol. Either way, glad we are. Stop calling me by that cringe nickname though.

     

     

     

    My cereal is gonna get soggy if I drag this out anymore so I'll just throw out a quick appreciation for the rest of the auth team and the community as a whole. You all make this place thrive and make it an exciting place to be. Without the community, and the auth team to manage the madness that exists within Reborn couldn't survive. So keep being awesome and Reborn could surely last forever. 

     

    Or until Ame gets bored and yeets us all into the cold, black void.

    Well, how did you find this website?

    I actually found Reborn through a friend. More specifically, back when Pokemon Online was a thing I was looking for a way to play competitive Pokemon online and a friend mentioned Pokemon Online. I started out on their main server, but one day I was browsing the servers list and stumbled upon Reborn. If I remember right they were advertising their online Pokemon League in their server description so I was interested in that idea and joined up which lead me to the forums to sign up.

  3. Been a very long time since I posted anything on these forums but I'm breaking the streak today. Recently I watched Twitch Rivals and it sparked the idea to have a similar event here. Honestly I don't know if enough of you will want to or even see this but I'm gonna try anyway.

     

    The basic idea is to have a best of 5 series between two teams consisting of Reborn members. As for incentive I will personally gift every member of the winning team a skin of their choice. However, there will be some restrictions to that. To preserve my bank account I'm gonna have to not allow Ultimate and Legendary tier skins. If a skin is not your preference I can gift you a champion you do not own if that's what you prefer. It goes without saying I have to actually be able to obtain the skin in order to gift it to you.

     

    As for the requirements. There are none other than you must be in on the North American server. You can be Grandmaster or Iron 4 or even Unranked. It's all for fun. We'll need at least 9 sign ups. I say 9 since I intend on participating. But if there's enough interest we can see about subs as well. I also ask that anyone that signs up be open to voice chat via Discord as it helps communication in game but it's not really a requirement if you're uncomfortable with that. As for the time. Ideally I'd like it to take place on a weekend. So Saturday or Sunday. If this generates enough interest I'll think of a more precise date and update everyone to see if what works. But as a placeholder I'll say this Saturday at 6pm EST.

     

    Lastly, I ask that you share your summoner name as well as your preferred role and secondary role like so:

     

    Summoner name: 

    Primary/Secondary: 

     

    I'll start:

     

    Summoner name: Mic Hauk

    Primary/Secondary: ADC/Mid

     

    Btw make sure you add me that way I can actually gift you and if you have any other questions feel free to ask them either here or where you'll be more likely to reach me Discord(Joker#5508)!

    the idea behind this spread and set was basically for mimikyu. my team was unfortunately weak against it otherwise as well as our nation in general gets swept by it if left unchecked. this ev spread gives me enough bulk to eat even a boosted play rough on a switch in and outspeed and OHKO with sunsteel strike since it ignores disguise. the rest is obvious i guess.

    PokeNations 3

    Week 3: STABBYMONS

     

    What up it's your boy here bringing you week 3 of everyone's favorite past time! This time around we're making things simple. STABMONS!!! What is STABMONS? Simply put, it's where a Pokemon can use a move it doesn't normally learn/get as long as it shares the Pokemon's type. An example of this would be a Celesteela using Roost, or Garchomp with Dragon Dance.

     

    Rules: 

    To keep things simple and as fun as possible for everyone we're using standard STABMONS bans. More on that below. In addition, standard Smogon battle clauses are in effect. Another thing I wish to clarify is the Pokemon you use must share the type with the move in its current evolution. For instance, you can't give Tyranitar the move Shore Up because it isn't a Ground type. This applies to Pokemon with other formes with different typing, as well as Mega Pokemon that gain a typing. So your Rotom-W can't use Flamethrower, and your Mega Sceptile can't use Draco Meteor.

     

    Bans:

    MOVES: Chatter, Water Spout, Eruption, Shift Gear, Tail Glow, Fell Stinger, Spectral Thief, Geomancy, Accupressure, Belly Drum, Extremespeed, Lovely Kiss, Shell Smash, Spore, Thousand Arrows, Omniboosting Z-Moves

     

    POKEMON: Blacephalon, Kartana, Komala, Kyurem-B, Porygon-Z, Sivally, Tapu Koko, Tapu Lele, 

     

    ITEMS: Aerodactylite, King's Rock, Razor Fang

     

    ABILITIES: Battle Bond

    Note: Pokemon that naturally get these moves are allowed to use them. So don't worry you can use Extremespeed on your Linoone for example.

     

    As usual, if you have an questions direct them to a committee member or ask them here in green.

     

    MATCH UPS:

     

    I. ECLIPSE V/S ZION

     

    OU Singles

     

    Can darkness overcome earth shattering power?

     

    II. LIGHT GAZERS V/S SUN VALKYRIES

     

    OU Singles

     

    Whose light will shine brighter in this family dispute?

     

    III. ZODIAC V/S POLARIS

     

    OU Singles

     

    Will poison slowly topple their foes, or will it be washed away?

     


    TO THE NATION LEADERS:  Matches will be 5v5 weekly on the Reborn Showdown Server. Please submit your rosters of FIVE participants and TWO substitute candidates for this challenge within the next 42 hours to your committee representatives. 

     

    REMINDER: Post your Replays of your Showdown matches in the Nations Discord server:  https://discord.gg/MjcGDzf

     

    Replays have to follow this format:

     

    Week No. 

    Player A vs Player B

    Win/Loss

    Replay Link

     

     

    All the best!

  10. it's the moment you've all been waiting for. the time every nation gets what defines them. it's time to pick some types and kickstart the crazy fun times we'll have. i welcome you to the 2018 not so annual pokenations type draft. the pre-established picking order is as follows 

     

    F >D>A>E>C>B

     

    once the first round has went through the second round will begin in reverse order so it should look like this:

     

    B>C>E>A>D>F

     

    as we wrap up that portion we'll then randomize the picking order again for the third round and update everyone either in this thread or discord. to keep things organized i ask that ONLY nation leaders picking the types and committee members posting any updates comment on this thread. with that out of the way. go nuts.

     

    nation a- flying/dark

     

    nation b- psychic/fighting

     

    nation c- normal/poison

     

    nation d- steel/fairy

     

    nation e- ground/bug

     

    nation f- water
