I'll ref GK vs Jas and Kaxtar vs Leethoof. PM Teams.
Need a ref for this. Also, since I have two spare battle slots now, I'm changing the other challenge I issued into two challenges that are identical except for arena:
New challenge #1
2v2 singles
2-day DQ for players, 3-day DQ for ref
Unlimited recoveries and unlimited chills
I will be using fully evolved mons here
Arena: Flavio the Thermal Fish's canyon
The arena is set in a canyon. Non-grass-types cannot use Grass Knot and there is a limit on the external water source (as explained below) but all other moves are legal and unrestricted.
Throughout the battle, Flavio the Thermal Fish will rest in his pool of water. At the end of each action, he will blow hot bubbles on all the pokemon in the arena. This counts as a special multi-hit water-type attack with 2 BP per hit and Flavio's special attack is rank 4. Flavio's attack also has a (5*number of hits)% chance to burn the target.
If Flavio is attacked at all during a round, however, he will not blow bubbles on the battling pokemon for the rest of the round after he is hit, and at the end of the round he'll dive into his pool of water. He will then come up again at the end of the following round and normal service will be resumed. However, while Flavio is underwater, his pool may be used as an external water source for moves like Surf. While Flavio is surfaced, his huge body prevents any pokemon from using his pool of water for anything.
While Flavio is underwater, ice-type attacks can be directed at the pool of water. The pool takes ice damage equal to the base power of the ice-type attack with no modifiers. Once the pool takes a total of 30 ice damage, it freezes over, making the pool unusable as an external water source and preventing Flavio from interfering for the rest of the battle.

New challenge #2

Arena: Goo Man Chu's tower
This arena is set inside a stone tower (so weather, SolarBeam, Thunder, Moonlight and Morning Sun are unusable). Digging and seismic moves are not allowed. There is also no external water source.
The tower is full of green goo and there are platforms along the edges. Here's a diagram for you:
When a pokemon is released, the trainer must specify which platform it starts out on. Also, pokemon may use the command Move to platform X. Which platforms the pokemon can access depends on which platform the pokemon is on and their current speed. The distance they may travel in terms of number of platforms is speed/75, rounded up to the nearest whole number, max 4. So, for example, if Blaziken is on platform 5, it can travel to any platform between 3 and 7, whereas Steelix on platform 5 can only travel to platform 4 or 6. This command costs 3 energy per platform traversed (so the Blaziken would pay 6 energy to travel from platform 5 to platform 3). This command is not subject to the consecutive energy penalty and cannot be encored or disabled but Taunt will work against it. Finally, contact attacks cannot be used unless the user and the target are on the same platform.
At the end of the round, one platform will go into the wall (randomly chosen, all with equal chance but never the same platform on two consecutive rounds). Any pokemon on that platform will fall into the goo below (including flying and levitating pokemon). If a pokemon falls in like this, it takes 20 damage and its first action must be Get up onto platform X (all platforms are reachable in this scenario except the one that disappeared). This command costs 10 energy, is not subject to consecutive energy penalty and cannot be encored or disabled. Falling into the goo cures a pokemon of sleep, freeze and taunt, but if it is fully paralysed when it tries to get out of the goo, it takes another 20 damage and it must try again.
Once a platform has gone into the wall, it stays there for one round and emerges at the end of the round (at the same time as another platform going into the wall). Pokemon cannot move across a hidden platform unless they can fly or levitate (so Blaziken can't travel from platform 5 to platform 3 if platform 4 is hidden) and obviously they can't stop on a platform that's not there.

Open Challenge!
2v2 Doubles
1 Day DQ
Arena: #capasb
That's right, #capasb. There are absolutely no move restrictions, etc. but there is a catch! Every round, you may use 1 assist from any Pokemon of any player currently in CAP ASB, using the stats of that Pokemon. This does not take an action, and happens at the end of the round. The faster Pokemon the assist was taken from will use their assist first.

2 Day DQ
Anything goes.
Giant pool table. Every round pool balls bounce around the table, doing 10% remaining health to one of the 4 pocketmen in the arena at random(judge randomized 1-4, hitting whoever was accepted the challenge in whatever order (First person who accepts is 1, second is 2, and third is 3. I will always be 4.))

Sorry, TravelLog, but that challenge was already accepted by Kaxtar.
Challenging Fire Blast!
1v1 Singles
1 hour DQ
Arena: Quagmire
That's right, a poisonous quagmire. It limits the mobility of grounded non-Poison Pokemon, reducing their Evasion to -2. In addition, any Poison-vulnerable Pokemon in the arena gets Poisoned (not Toxic Poisoned) at the end of each round. There is no water source, and the ground is so permeable and mucky that seismic attacks get -3 BAP.

After so much Hall and Subway reffings, reffing a regular match can actually be fun. PM your Pokemon up to 3!
Oh yeah, I've been meaning to issue a match kinda like RD's last one (copycat! ^_^) so let's see...
2v2 Singles
DQ: 2 days, 3 days for ref
Pokemon I'll be using: Electabuzz and Bolderdash
Special Policy: This match will always result in a Tie no matter what
Arena: An Aquarium
There are fishies in tanks everywhere. No, no petting area, sorry. Any move is allowed. Moves that have potential to break these glass tanks, such as Earthquake, Hyper Beam misses, and a Brick Break specifically targeted on the glass, WILL break the glass and flood the arena with dangerous fishies that you can't kill! There are five (5) glass tanks. Using AoE moves like Earthquake will need 2 hits to destroy all tanks. A single target move like Hyper Beam and Brick Break require 1 hit to destroy a tank. What are inside the tanks anyway? They are:
Piranha (1 tank destroyed): Deals 3 damage to each Pokemon per round.
Electric Eel (2 tanks destroyed): Deals 6 damage to each Pokemon per round and has a 20% chance to paralyze (10%) them (check for both Pokemon, doesn't matter if it's a Ground-type or has Limber).
Giant Squid (3 tanks destroyed): Deals 9 damage to each Pokemon per round and has a 20% chance to toxic poison them (^ except for Immunity).
Sperm Whale (4 tanks destroyed): Deals 12 damage to each Pokemon per round and has a 20% chance to freeze them (1 action).
Great White Shark (5 tanks destroyed): Deals 15 damage to each Pokemon per round.
And yes, they will all be active at the same time if they're all unleashed! If they manage to KO a Pokemon, the KOC goes to the opponent.
