Leethoof do remember that you're playing Lee Straton.
You strode confidently towards the rock henge, hands fluttering upon the fretboard of your guitar. You crossed the threshold into the barren, gravelly, sacred ground. The henge is already glowing, and you find yourself looking at some Unown formes previously unseen of. Wait, these are-

"Kanji Unown, yes."

Whipping out your lucky pick in an instant, you turned back at the Gym Leader standing in front of you.

".... And they're the source of your team's strengths, Wukong?"

"Of course, as is rock music to yours. Welcome, to Rock Origins, the Gym - where we'll find out if your songs can match my seals."

Format
  • 5 vs 5 Doubles, GL B8P5
  • 96-hour DQ (once someone goes over that, I'll usually leave a VM asking them to look at it. If their recent activity is twice over the time, a straight no-warning DQ may be requested by opponent)
  • 2 Abilities
  • 2/5 Recoveries/Chills
  • 7 Substitutions per round (excluding KO subs of course)
  • 0 Mega-Evolutions
  • Switch = OK
  • Items = ALL
  • Turn Order = COIN FLIP
Arena mechanics
  1. Naturally Rock-type Pokemons get Sticky Hold.
  2. All Rock-types get Solid Rock and Rock Head in addition, if they don't already have it.
  3. In Sandstorms, all attacks against Rock-types also suffer -2 BAP, instead of just Special Attacks.
  4. All defensive moves listed under Rock STAB gain +4 Priority instead of the original +1. Pokemons whose primary STAB is Rock-type automatically gain knowledge of all moves listed in the STAB description, except Multi-target, Priority, or Damaging moves (Exclusion lists: Detect, Quick Guard, Wide Guard, Light Screen, Reflect, Skull Bash).
  5. No external rock, water, or grass sources.
  6. No seismic combos allowed.
  7. Camouflage turns user into Rock-type, Nature Power calls Ancient Power, and Secret Power lowers Speed by one (1) stage.

yknow, waking up to find out your gym was opened and there are already 3 challengers is a bit terrifying. Anywho...


"Time for a strong debut!"
Accepting smashlloyd20 and Birkal

3v3 Gym Singles (Gym Leader Brings 6)
DQ: 72h, 2 Warnings
3 Substitutions
Switch: OK
Abilities: All
Items: On
Megas: 1
2 Recoveries / Infinite Chills per Pokemon
Gym Leader sends out first
2 days ago
You hear the obnoxious sound of your dog ferociously barking at the door, signaling that the mailman is here, yet again. You considered ignoring it, but decided to go see what came in the mail today. When you flipped open the mailbox, you saw a letter, stamped with a certain seal. Having never seen something like it, you check the address on it, and realize that it might finally be time. Yep, it is, your gym challenge has been accepted. So, you immediately rush to your room, prepare your pokemon, and set off on your travels to the arena.

Present Day
You arrive at the building, take a moment to check the address, then you go in. When you enter, you see a sign that reads "Continue this way." and has an arrow leading you through a doorway. You do this 3 times, and suddenly you find yourself moving up through a pile of gold, coins, and cash. You think to yourself, this definitely cannot be it. You look behid you for the way out, only to find there is no escape, and so you continue to pace as you moving up. When you emerge from the pile, you spot a gentlemen sitting behind a desk, working hard on...well whatever it is, since you can't tell from here. You take your first step, making a lot of noise as the gold and coins rustle, alerting the worker to your presence. The worker looks up, points in the direction of a hallway, then goes back to work. You carry on, about 0.1 miles forward, and you think you have finally arrived. Now there is another gentlemen, meditating by the spring. Without provocation, he speaks as if he already knew you were here,


"Why, hello there! You must be my opponent for today!"

You struggle to understand how he already knows that you are there, but respond with a simple "Yes" before returning to you silence. The Gym Leader rises up, dusts himself off, and says, "Let me show you around a bit. First, in case this hasn't sunk in yet, we are no less than 150ft beneath the surface. We dwell here because the real world isn't ready to deal with the Fairies yet. There are, a couple alterations though. For example, even though we are very far beneath ground, we do have pretty good lighting here, because we believe that sight is important, and keeps your battling refined. We have 4 naturally occuring springs down here, since creating water tunnels has never been so easy. The grass that you, while artificial, is fundamentally the same as standard grass in the world above, just needed to be reformulaicly developed to respond to the substancde difference in the lighting. Take a look about the certain of the arena.

You lool, and see a massive floating stone, glowing with a light pink aura.

The gym leader continues on, sayng, "It took us a while to understand exactly what that it seemed to get more prevalent as we trained down here more and more. Overall, we figured out that is harness the more float-based and low weight characteristics of the fairies, and transmutes the effect around the arena. We only turn it on when we are battling though, as training in it provides very minimal benefit to us. This increased lightness offsets everyone a little bit in combat, and as a result, makes all attacks hit more often. Moreover, since it is charged wih the aura of Fairy-typed Pokemon, they receive an added bonus while in the presence of the stone, in the form of less exhaustion."

You stare very blankly, trying to take it all in, then recompose yourself, this time with a look of determination, saying, "So shall we get started then?"

The leader smiles, then claps twice. You feel everything begin to change, and a you see a pixie floating above the arena, who says, "Alright, seeing as everyone here knows what the conditions of this battle are, combatants, take your sides, and let's get ready for one hell of a battle!" The pixie turns the stands, which have now filled up, saying, "Welcome to The Pixisphere, hope you enjoy the show!"

Effects
- All Pokemon have their actual weight halved
- All attacks gain 10% Accuracy
- Fairy STAB's reduction of the consecutive EN penalty is extended to all moves used by Fairy-typed Pokemon. The actual reduction is unaffected.

Codifications
- Camouflage makes the user a Fairy-type
- Nature Power calls the move Earth Power
- Secret Power has a chance to reduce the SpA of the target by 1 stage.
- All resources are available, all weathers are allowed
- Arena is well lit, but inside. So Synthesis/Morning Sun/Moonlight/etc. heal for their middle amount

"BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER, BABY."

Gym Leader Birkal vs. Challenger Rainman Legends
Format:
5 vs. 5 Series (B8P5)
DQ Time: 72 Hours
Chills: ∞
Recoveries: ∞
Substitutions: 2
Switch: N/A
Items: On
Abilities: All
MEvos: 5
Arena: Nowhere in Particular

Arena: Nowhere in Particular

The hot stench of the metropolis suffocates all newcomers. The streets bustle with activity: businessmen scurry, children yell, and the homeless beg. The hustle-and-bustle city is tireless; it is clockwork. Everyone lives within their own microcosm, content to keep their head down and live another day.

Rather, most are content. There are those who know how to escape. They yearn for something greater, something primal. They gather at a pub down by Main Street and 10th called The Antidote. No, they're not there for the tempting booze or the allure of getting laid. They come to fight. A man with a missing eye and ripping biceps guards the back doorway which presumably leads to the basement. He spits on the ground and address you firmly.

"Oi, where you off to?" he grumbles.

"Nowhere in Particular," you reply candidly.

The man gives a knowing nod and steps out of the way. It worked!

Down and down the concrete stairs go. They lead you into a cavernous underground room. The basement: Nowhere in Particular. Its floor is cold pavement and its brick walls are unforgiving. Metal folding chairs, wobbly card tables, and other materials litter the room. But none of that matters; what catches your eye is the middle of the room. Underneath the flickering fluorescent lights is a battle. A formidable Fighting-type Pokemon slams an unsuspecting foe into the floor with a deafening thud. Its trainer sticks a fist pump of pride into the cool air, as the basement reverberates back to silence.

"Nice fight," calls a blond-haired figure with green pants, sitting backwards in a chair. "But I believe our training is over... We have a visitor."

They both turn towards you. A lithe young woman with short pink hair grunts and stamps her foot into the ground. "LET'S DO THIS."

The blond makes a motion to stop her. "Easy there, Maylene." He approaches you and offers a firm handshake. "Hi there, I'm Birkal!" he says, brimming with enthusiasm. "Welcome to Nowhere in Particular. Or more formally, welcome to Fight Gym. Let me give you a quick rundown on the rules here."


"Number One: The entire gym fight is played as a series of one versus one matches. It is a best of series, meaning that whoever wins the majority of the rounds wins the match. One a Pokemon has fought its round, it remains benched for the rest of the series. The arena is cleared anew after every match; hazards and field effects disappear."

"Number Two: Coin flip determines which battler will choose who sends out the first Pokemon of the match (right of way). From there, the loser of each round chooses who sends out first in the following matches."

"Number Three: Both Challenger and Gym Leader may only bring one of each typing, including Mega Evolutions and formes. For example, Avalugg would take up the Challenger's Ice-type slot. Similarly, Noivern would take up the Challenger's Flying-type and Dragon-type slots for the series. Fighting-type is exempt from this rule for the Gym Leader alone. However, the Gym Leader cannot bring two of the same typed Pokemon outside of Fighting-types (e.g. Gallade and Medicham cannot both be brought)."

"Number Four: The Gym Leader may bring Lopunny on her roster; it is forced to Mega Evolve upon send-out."

"Number Five: Ties are allowed in individual match-ups. If both Pokemon are KO'd, the score becomes X - X - 1. In the event of a tie series, then the challengers will face off in a final elimination round. They each PM one Pokemon to the referee that they have already brought to the match. Choice of send-out will be decided as a coin flip."

"Number Six: Referee payout is modified in this gym. In order to cycle through match-ups quickly, pay is determined by the number of match-ups refereed. Payout is earned based on the number of matches refereed in singles, plus a bonus of Pokemon sent out divided in half. In other words, reffing one grants 3 UC + (2 x 0.5) Bonus, two grants 8 UC, three grants 13 UC, four grants 19 UC, five grants 26 UC, and completing the entire series with a tiebreaker grants 34 UC. Referees that pass DQ once (even when on Leave of Absence) are susceptible to being replaced."


"Think you can handle all that?" Birkal asks with a smile. "Let me know if you have any questions."

"UGH, SHUT UP," Maylene shouts angrily. A small crowd emerges from the shadows, their interest is piqued. "ENOUGH CHAT. LET'S GET THIS FIGHT STARTED."


Summarized:
1) Best of Series (1 vs. 1).
2) Battler with right of way (granted by coin flip or a loss) will determine who sends out first.
3) Can only bring one of any single type to the fight (Mega Evolutions and formes included).
