I challenge Maxim, the Normal Gym leader!
"Ah, my first challenger, excellent! I've seen you poke your head in and out of ASB many times, and I know that your team fared well in the Team Tournament. However this is a whole new challenge I've set for you here, and only those with the best strategies can win here."
"Without further ado, I welcome you to the Origin Sanctum and accept your challenge!"
Rules for Both Matches:
3v3 Single Rotation Battle (Gym Leader Brings 6, Challenger brings 3)
2 Day DQ (Player)
3 Day DQ (Referee)
3 Substitutions
Restricted moves as per Arena
Switch=Rotation

Arena: Origin Sanctum
Opelucid City
To some this city is a vast futuristic city that never looks back on anything outdated. To others, it is a city steeped in a tradition that has lasted for centuries. For the most part, neither city ever had any contact with each other. However, one building stood out for being completely the same between these two dimensions. Dubbed Origin Sanctum by many, this mysterious place has been rumored to be a gateway into another world. More recently, Maxim decided to take a trip into this strange building to learn it's secrets and hunt for what he believed must be a legendary...and then he did something unexpected. He turned it into his own personal gym!
When one enters this gym, they soon find that it is modeled after a traditional gym, filled with puzzles and trainers itching for a battle. No matter which side the challenger enters into they have to fight trainers having a variety of types and battling styles. Some specialize in Doubles, others in Rotations. As for the puzzle, it's a fairly rudimentary but complex puzzle. There are two different styles of platforms: Long, narrow "Sword" platforms that connect to two different sides and rotate 180 degrees whenever any platform is rotated, and round, circular "Shield" platforms that rotate 90 degrees whenever any platform is rotated, and connects 4 different sides at the same time. However, there is one big difference depending on which side you enter into
Black: The puzzle area here seems to mimic tall, towering skyscrapers that you must traverse across. There are safety rails that prevent falls, and it's really just an illusion, but many are wowed by the glass buildings, cars and other such things that appear to come out here.
White: This puzzle area tries to mimic an ancient ruin, with white stone platforms and waterfalls surrounding a near bottomless chasm. Unlike the Black area, this is no illusion, but the chances of falling are unlikely and in the rare event that someone does fall, a few Drifblim are ready to catch them. Many are amazed by the beautiful surroundings here.
However, what most people are interested in is what lies past the puzzle area. They enter through huge doors to find what looks to be at first glance a huge greenhouse. 16 trees fit into neat 2x4 formations on either side of the arena, which looks starkly futuristic for this place, containing very large and near indestructible white platforms. Around this area, there are several small conveyor belts that wrap around the arena, with a moat covering the outside edges of the arena, while the whole field has plenty of grass for all uses. As far as the eye can see, murals are painted on the walls of this place that create the illusion of being in a much bigger field with a futuristic city in the distance. All of this was covered with a glass ceiling high in the air. You wonder how such a place could exist between dimensions, but then you are approached by the Leader.
"But you're not here to hear me talk about philosophy are you? Let me explain this arena to you. Each of these sixteen trees contains a unique type resisting berry. Both of us will choose a berry to give to each of our Pokemon in addition to their held item. Then we will fight a Rotation battle, which will put our wits against each other. Quite interesting isn't it?"
"Now then, I had some scientists design a peculiar generator that sits a few meters below our feet. This unique machine can change any move you want into a Normal type move changes the type effectiveness of super effective and not very effective moves."
"Oh yeah, that reminds me, you may want to take a look at this booklet, it describes a few rules regarding items in this arena."
"Without further ado, I welcome you to the Origin Sanctum and accept your challenge!"
Summary:
1. Every Pokemon challenger or leader is given a choice of a type resisting berry to give to each of their Pokemon in addition to their held item. If a trainer brings two copies of a berry (i.e. spends money on a type resisting berry and then picks that same berry), it gives them an effective 6 actions of that berry, as opposed to doubling the effect of the berry. The Chilan Berry cannot be chosen.
2. Every battle in this arena is a Rotation battle. For the purposes of this arena, the battle operates in the following format. For the first round, the referee flips a coin deciding who goes first. The competitor that goes second sends issues his first active Pokemon and issues his items, while the other competitor does likewise second and issues orders, similar to a standard singles battle. In this case, the Active Pokemon is the only Pokemon that can take actions in this round of battle. The battle progresses as normal, except at the end of each round, including the first and before the referee refs, each competitor may PM a Pokemon to rotate to the referee, and that Pokemon will become the active Pokemon for the next round. This choice will be announced by the referee at the end of each round. The "passive" Pokemon, those who aren't participating in that round of battle, enter a period of stasis, where their stat boosts and drops, among other things, will not change. Cooldowns from combos also enter stasis.
For instance, if a Pokemon were to issue a combo A3, then were rotated out, that same Pokemon would be forced to Cooldown on the first action they were rotated back to the active position. Similarly, a Pokemon with four actions of attack boosts will retain those upon becoming passive, and the counter will not tick down until they are made active again.
3. Items cannot be knocked off, traded, destroyed, or otherwise incapacitated except by consumption by it's held Pokemon and the following exceptions:
4x Weakness: 2.5x
2x Weakness: 1.75x
1x Weakness: 1x
2x Resistance: 0.6x
4x Resistance: 0.3x
Immunity: 0x
5. Any move from any Pokemon can be changed into a Normal type move, similar to the ability Normalize. However, unless the Pokemon in question has Normalize, the affected move and any normal move the Pokemon has does not gain a damage boost. If the user of the Normalized move is a Normal type, the move gains STAB.

3. Items cannot be knocked off, traded, destroyed, or otherwise incapacitated except by consumption by it's held Pokemon and the following exceptions:
- Knock Off has its regular effect to knock off both held items, but each item is returned to its user at the end of 3 actions after the usage of Knock off, regardless of whether said Pokemon is in the "active" position or not. Additionally, Pokemon with the ability Pickup cannot pick up the opponent's items, but will instantly retrieve their own items.
- Embargo has it's normal effect, but costs 8 Energy to use.
- Magic Room works as normal.
- Sticky items such as Ring Target and Sticky Barb stick to the target if their requirement is met and if one of the two item slots (berries or normal items) is open. If this conflicts with the first rule (i.e. the normal item is knocked off then Sticky Barb is given) then the sticky item is given to its previous owner.

Anyway, folks, here we are on the very first Normal Gym challenge! After a grueing set of qualifiers, Maxim managed to defeat the opposition and claim the Normal Gym for himself! I must add, he is tweaking this gym for the last couple of years, so this was probably a big deal for him. So congratulations are in order!
The leader brought a strong set of Normal Types (what did you expect?). Special Attackers, Physical Attackers, Bulky mons, Glass Cannons and even a birdie! Lots of variety.
Among them, pay close attention to Serenity the Togekiss. Being able to hit all the opposing mons SE while not being screwed by the STABs available is a nice advantage to have when going monotype.
As for the challenger, we have Smashlloyd20, the trainer with the distinct quality of being the very first to enter ze ASB! He is probably the biggest vet we have around and would have a terrific set of mons if it weren't for him playing "whack-a-mole" and going in and out constantly. Still, it is a fitting first opponent for this gym.
From his team, pay special attention to Chuck Norris the Machamp. His strong STABs have the potential to steamroll the competition and the extra special attack coupled with No Guard means that it has the ways to get pass that dratted Togekiss. or not.
And without further ado, let's check on the teams
Team Gym Leader
Nature: Quiet (Adds One (1) Rank to Special Attack; Divides Base Speed by 1.15 and gives a flat 10 point decrease in evasion, effectively adding 10 accuracy (e.g. 85 becomes 95) on an opponent’s attacks.)
Type:
Normal: Normal STAB; adapt comfortably to any surrounding after 3 actions. Able to use Outrage without losing focus.

Thick Fat: (Passive) This Pokemon has a great deal of extra fat or muscle that increases its resistance to extreme heat or extreme cold, reducing the type effectiveness of Fire- and Ice-typed attacks to the next level of resistance (2x weak becomes neutral, neutral becomes resistance, etc.)
Gluttony (DW): (Passive) This Pokemon devours healing and stat increasing berries at 50% health (flat) instead of 25% health (flat). It also regains two (2) HP per action when holding Leftovers.

Abilities:
Cute Charm: (Passive) This Pokemon’s natural cuteness causes Pokemon of the opposite gender to be attracted to it 30% of the time after striking with a contact move.
Technician: (Passive) This Pokemon is more skilled at performing weaker moves, causing any of their one-hit or two-hit attacks that normally have 6 or less Base Attack Power to have their Base Attack Power on each hit multiplied by 1.5. (e.g. Aerial Ace goes from 6 to 9, Mach Punch goes from 4 to 6, Double Hit to from 4 per hit to 6 per hit etc.) The Energy Cost for a one-hit or two-hit attack is increased by one (1). Each hit in a multi-hit move is boosted by one (1) Base Attack Power, and the Energy Cost for multi-hit attacks is increased by two (2). Because Technician is a multiplier on single hit moves, its effect is applied to Base Attack Power before any additive effects. Technician only applies to combos in the rare case that an initial hit will have 6 or less BAP.
Skill Link (DW): (Passive) This Pokemon’s skillful aim makes its multi-hit moves always hit 5 times. The Energy Cost of multi-hit attacks is increased by three (3).

Guts: (Innate) This Pokemon is tenacious and will work ever harder when under a status condition, raising the base attack power of all its physical attacks by two (2). Pokemon with Guts ignore the attack drop from burn.
No Guard: (Innate) This Pokemon has an immense confidence from perfecting each of its attacks, giving them all perfect accuracy. Resultingly it feels it can weather every strike, and will not dodge an attack even if ordered to. Only when a OHKO move is issued by the opponent does sense return, and the Pokemon acts normally.
Steadfast: (Innate) If this Pokemon is flinched, it becomes aware of the speed difference and increases speed by one (1) stage to make up the difference.
