The Battle Hall

The Battle Hall is a role playing challenge that uses both battling skills and decision making to make a fun, mischievous challenge for the battler. It is very versatile as the challenger can either take the safe or risky route to complete it.

Player Details:
  1. There aren't any rules for the player. Just don't pass DQ.
Battle Details:
  1. You must battle all 17 Pokemon to win.
  2. Weather, including Gravity and Trick Room, is subject to change in all arenas. Sand Stream, Drizzle, Drought, and Snow Warning will all function normally.
Challenge Details:
  1. Each challenge will start with a table showing possible opponents pre-picked in each rank. It will be a table with Pokemon types showing each trainer's Pokemon resembling the opponents, and the challenger will start anywhere they want. Upon victory, the challenger will have the choice to move to any type on the table and start a new battle. If the challenger loses, their challenge will end.
  2. A trainer who enters will submit one of their Pokemon. A trainer may not enter this challenge twice simultaneously. If you've already taken the challenge, it's usually a good idea to wait a while until challenging the hall again. The challenge will NOT take up one of the slots of the three concurrent battle limit. This means a trainer can enter even if they are already in three battles.
  3. Inactivity for 2 days will result in a DQ. This counts as a loss and your challenge will end immediately, with you receiving nothing. Ref DQ will result in a subref taking over. If a subref is ever needed, the original ref will get the standard 3*[number of battles] UC. However, they will not get the additional 2 UC bonus. The subref will get the bonus along with UC awarded via the formula for the rest of the battles in the challenge that they ref.
  4. When battling ranks 1-3, items will be off. At rank 4, it will up to the challenger to decide on items being on or off. At rank 5, items will always be on.
Boss Info:
  1. Hall Matron Argenta will use a randomly determined Pokemon from the Rank one above the one being challenged. In the event a challenger reaches Hall Matron Argenta in Rank 5, the ref may handpick any Pokemon.
Role-Playing Flow:
  1. A player will post in the thread asking to participate in the Battle Hall challenge and choose their rank.
  2. A ref will take your challenge if procedures are followed correctly.
  3. Claim your counters in the Prize Claiming Thread as if it were a battle.
  4. Wait a week(ish), then you may rechallenge the Battle Hall. If you beat the Hall Matron, you may rechallenge without waiting a week.
Battle Format:
  • Pokemon: 1v1 Singles
  • DQ: 2 days for actions / 3 days for refs
  • Abilities: One
  • Items: Ranks 1-3: No, Rank 4: Challenger's Choice, Rank 5: Yes
  • 2 Recovers/5 Chills
  • 2 Subs
Arena: Stadium Arena

The Stadium Arena is similar to the Tournament Arena, with all weather and seismic activity permitted. There is a lake in the middle so water moves are allowable. It is a circle of hard packed earth around 40 feet in diameter, and digging is permitted. The crowd can become involved in the battle at the referee's discretion. Nature Power's effect is randomised.

After completing the following battles, you will get the prizes listed by them. They do accumulate, so you will get the prize every time you complete a battle in the specified range!

Battles 1-17: 2 CC, 2 KOC
Hall Matron Argenta: 6 CC, 2 KOC

*Completing a battle means finish it. That means if you lose, the battle is still completed.

Only approved refs may ref Battle Hall challenges. To become an appoved ref, talk to MK.

After reffing a battle hall challenge, the referee will get the following amount of UC:
3[Amount of battles] + 2

Just a little note for refs: always take the earliest challenge in the queue.

NB: The Hall does allow (reasonable) flavour actions, if you (as either a ref or a challenger) have an issue, talk to MK.
NB2: Hall doesn't lock your pokemon out of other things.

REFS ANNOUNCEMENT
 
If you are currently a Battle Hall ref and wish to continue being a Battle Hall ref, please PM me, preferably on IRC. This allows Objection and I to have a better organised refs list.
The same goes for anyone not currently a ref who wishes to be a ref.

E@below: queue is the same, don't repost.

waterwarrior Feb 5th, 2012 4:07:26 PM

Is the queue still the same as it was from the last thread, or should we re-post our challenges?

Ugh, a fucking huge queue. I'll take Doorknob and Athenodoros.

It's hard to say what exactly the order of the queue should be, since BM-Zeo took a bunch of challenges and then disappeared, but I guess it's this (I put Lou, waterwarrior, EndQuote, The Royal Guard and TalkingLion where I put them because of the placement of this post):

Also, bumping this thread in case people haven't noticed it yet.

typon77 Feb 11th, 2012 11:38:19 PM

@Axmaster your thread will go up when its your turn in the queue. As you can see in the post above yours, there are 15 people in front of you in the queue. So you'll be waiting a long time.

C$FP Feb 12th, 2012 10:58:32 AM

I'll take Ziposaki, UllarWarlord, and zarator.

waterwarrior Feb 12th, 2012 11:13:46 AM

@LeviLamprey Doubles doesn't exist anymore, second line of the OP

Anyways, can you update a Pokemon, i.e. between the time you signed up and the time the challenge was taken you get new moves and such, can you put the new moves in or must it be the same from when you signed up?

EDIT: Well, saying as I can't edit in the old thread, I'm actually going to have to repost it... Sorry. Also, it was incorrectly listed as a rank 1 challenge when it should be rank 2. Anyways, Franziska now looks like this:
Franziska the Snivy

And ww you can edit up until the time the challenge is taken.

deadfox081 Feb 19th, 2012 9:06:23 AM

Taking Mog Runner and Axmaster.

Dead Man's Odyssey, your challenge is illegal on multiple levels. Syclar is Rank 2 and you don't have a full DC to be able to use Technician as your ability. Edit your post to a legal challenge and then someone else might pick you up.

To refs: all the remaining challenges bar Dead Man's Odyssey should now be in this thread.

QUEUE(6)
the dead mans odyssey
Mr.L
typon77
The Wanderer
dragonboy52
C$FP

EDIT: For christ's sake people actually look up the rank of your mon before you post the challenge.
