The Giant League II: It's Super Effective! (Competitive Pokemon ITP)

[Sylthia]

It's what was in the Waterfall Colosseum in PBR. We both know each other's teams, because they were registered, so we can simplify. Pick five pokemon from your team, put them in your party. Then we go through them in 1v1s. My first vs your first, my second vs your second, etc. - the order is decided before it all starts. A winner is determined at first-to-get-three wins, though we could continue further if you feel like seeing how the rest would have ended up.

Should have been clearer. And yes, I am doing my best to come up with odd modes specifically for the Normal gym. Probably going to rename the badge, but I can't think what to name it.

I'm back home, if you're around. We can try for the Electric gym.

Loading in now.

EDIT: Ooops. Reset, I'll pick six this time. Silly me.

EDIT AGAIN: Congratulations, you have the Circuit Badge now.

Who else has my Badges? Editing it into my wiki page.

EDIT THREE: Officially renaming the Nest Badge to the Abnormal Badge.

Thanks, good battle.

I'll probably challenge for the Normal Badge once a decide on the last two members of my team. Some of my pokes aren't fit for one on one battles.

[noparlpf]

Alright, I'm actually back for real now. No more multiple-day trips in the foreseeable future. Just work from 8AM to 5:30PM, but I don't know my actual schedule until tomorrow.

[Sylthia]

I would like to formally challenge the Water Gym for the badge.

I'll also restate my challenge for the Bug Gym badge.

I'd also like to register Gengar and Tentacruel as my last two Pokemon for my team of eight.

Challenge accepted for the bug gym; I am helping friends move today but we will find an opportunity to battle in the near future.

Okay, if you're available this evening, I should be around. Otherwise maybe sometime this week? Although I'll be on call after today, so I might have to bail mid-match if I get called in.

EDIT: Oh, and for the Gym battles? What format would you guys like?

[Qwertystop]

If anyone's available tonight I'd like to place a potential Challenge.

(Also, I am available to be Challenged, if you wanted to get that Normal team out of the way, Rez.)

I'll see how late I'm on tonight, then I'll probably try to give it a go.

Does now work, or are you in a place where you can post but not play?

I'm doing a battle with noparlpf shortly, but could after that if you like.

[noparlpf]

Good match, Rez. You get the Storm Badge!
Geez, those Toxic Spikes really caused trouble. I'm not good at dealing with hazards with this team...
Anyway, battle video: 8PQG-WWWW-WWW7-MV9V

Great. Remember, pick five, and we do consecutive 1v1s in the initial order. Have all five in your box to confirm no cheating. Logging on now. Challenge me when your team is set up.

EDIT: In order, I said. That's not what was first in your team.

Yep, that was close. I was worried when you got that crit off on my Gengar.

EDIT: Sorry, didn't realize we only put 5 in the box. I won't use Blissey to prevent confusion.

You're going out of order.

EDIT: Oh, are you counting vertically? I was going horizontal, because that's how the game counts it. Ah well - as long as we're consistent.

POST-GAME EDIT: Well, that was close - down to the last battle.

[Sylthia]

You're going out of order.

Sorry, I didn't realize we had to do it in a set order. Oh, well, you won anyway, so it's a moot point. I'll have to make a few adjustments for that particular format.

[noparlpf]

Gengar is pretty flimsy, it might have fainted anyway. But geez, that Blissey and all those Toxic Spikes.

You went in a set order anyway, so it doesn't really matter. Yeah, it's a lot of luck of who ends up against who - my Porygon-Z would have had a hard time against your Gengar, for example, and I'm not sure I had anyone who could take your Metagross (maybe Ditto, because frankly someone has to win that, but I might have ended up Struggling and losing that anyway).

Would yo be up for a Fire Gym match as well? And if so, what format?

[noparlpf]

Probably not tonight, I'm planning to go to bed really early in like an hour or so and I'm going to go eat now. Maybe tomorrow if my first ten-hour day doesn't just knock me out.

That's okay, no rush.

Thus far, I have the Sinister Badge, the Circuit Badge, and the Storm Badge. I'll put out a standing challenge to any that I have not battled yet.

[Qwertystop]

You up to be challenged, Rez? Or anyone else?

[Sylthia]

You up to be challenged, Rez? Or anyone else?

Sure, if you can get on now. 6v6 Singles.

EDIT: Challenge me when you're ready.

EDIT 2: Good match! Maybe we can rechallenge each other next week.

P5LW-WWWW-WWW7-NWDR for the match.

[Quietus]

Definitely not up to taking challenges tonight, heavy exertion has left me with a brutal headache and an inability to focus. I should be available during evenings through the week, however.

I'll try to catch you later, then. What format do you use?

[JustPlayItLoud]

I'm up to take challengers. I can fire up the 3DS now. I also need either the Circuit or Nest Badge to secure my place in the season tournament. What were the parameters for challenging those gyms?

The Circuit Badge is 6v6 make that 3v3 Rotation. The Nest Badge is now the Abnormal Badge - at the moment it's best-of-five 1v1s, decide your order before any of them start. Working on a refinement but haven't got the details nailed down yet. Post which you want to challenge.

[JustPlayItLoud]

So the Abnormal Badge. So that means I have five I use in order. When one Pokemon gets KOed, does the fight end and we start another? Like it's separate 1v1s?

Either way, I'll try the Circuit Badge first. Then Abnormal if I fail. I am also available for a challenge if you would like.

I'll be going to bed in a bit, but will try to catch you later this week. What format so you use for the ground gym?

All right. And yes - put five in your party, we do 1v1s in the order you have them in your party.

And okay. And just in case you didn't see the edit: it's 3v3 rotation, not 6v6 rotation.
