Rules on Pokemon

Obtaining Pokemon:

The Rules on Pokemon are like this. You can Request any Pokemon you want by PMing an Admin/Mod. But the chances of you getting that Pokemon are high, depending on what you Request. If you want a Ho-Oh, the answer will automatically be no with no questions asked. That goes for all Legendary Pokemon. Now if you ask for something like a Dritini or Pikachu. The Answer will probably be yes, if not every time. Don't get discouraged if an Admin/Mod says no. Keep Rping, if we think your worthy of the Requested Pokemon, you can have it.

You can also have ANY THING REASONABLE as a Starter. All the normal Starters are automatically available. But you can't have 3 of the 3 Starters in the beginning of the game for your 4 Starting Pokemon. Choose one and one alone. If you don't choose a Starter and want to request something else, feel free too.

How to Level Up:

Leveling up is easy. You gain 10 Exp per post. You get 5 levels to distribute between your Pokemon every time you get 100 Exp. You can gain up to 200 Exp in one thread, after that you can't earn any more Exp in that thread dude to constant leveling up issues.

You can also get Levels from Battling NPC's. Though you can only get 3 Levels. If you win it is possible to get 5 levels.

How to get a level up approved:

You can't just add levels to your Pokemon after the thread. You have to do the following to insure accuracy in the leveling system. Because anyone can say "ZOMG I FOUGHT A PALKIA IN LIKE SUDDEN DEATH BLARGH" That's not how it works.

1. When you leave a thread, make your post like this.

(Trainers Name (What ever his/her name is)): Becky
(Pokemon used): Pikachu (Their levels next to their names) , Castform , Salamence ,ect.
Who Did you battle:
Did you win:
Exp Gained: (Number of Exp gained)

2. After you post that copy the thread's link and post in in the Character Sheet you used and post "Wish to Level up said Pokemon, Battled in This thread".

If you DIDN'T Battle and the Exp are from normal Post, just post the thread you were in and exit like this.

(Trainers Name):
Number of Post in thread:
Exp Gained:

Then follow the same procedure. Wait for an Admin/Mod to Approve it till you add the levels to your Pokemon.

Extra Exp:

You can get Extra Exp from battling PLAYER CHARACTERS stronger then you. You automatically get 4 Levels if you lose. You get 7 levels if you win. You can give those 4 or 7 levels to any Pokemon THAT BATTLED!!!

Here's how it is:

Level 10 Beats Level 15 = 5 levels

Level 20 Beats level 30 = 10 levels

Level 5 Beats level 20 = 15 levels

The greater difference in level the more Levels you gain. There is no exact level just yet, it can be between 5-15. Nothing higher, nothing lower. Remember, Regardless if you lose you still get 4 levels to level up your Pokemon.

How To Distribute Levels:

You can distribute the levels through any of the Pokemon that battle. Say you want to give two of your Pokemon 8 levels. You can give one of then 5 levels and the other 3. That way you can level up Multiple Pokemon.

Moves and Abilities:

Pokemon learn the same moves as the moves in the game. NOTHING CHANGES AT ALL!!! All the same effects, all the same super effectiveness. So don't make up your own rules.Abilities are also the same. So don't make your own. Any Ability the Pokemon can have in the game he/she can have on the site.

If your Pokemon is level 10 it can't have a move it learns at level 50. Not even if it was hatched. There will be times when we do contest for Eggs. But not for a while.
