Pokemon Battles (Group)

What is it?
Pokemon Battles (PkMn Battles) is a group that is, obviously, made to be a place for people to battle with any type of pokemon-related avatar. In the group, there are three public arenas to play in. Some times there are tournaments going on that you can join and hope you win. At the main hall, to the right of the public arenas are the gym arenas with the three gym leaders: Count L. Ronnacon, Finn, and TheDahaki. (Respectively, from left to right.) Link to the group: PkMn Battles

How to start a battle
Unless you're a manager, you can't start your own battle. But, if managers are on then you can ask them to start a battle for you. Sometimes there can be 2vs2 battles or just 1v1. To challenge a gym leader, you can just find them online sometime and face-to-face challenge them, or you can send them a letter via Whirled mail. Managers control the health and overhead text boxes which create the role-play battle for you, and if you defeat a gym leader, then you earn his badge. I believe most of the gym leaders have a badge made that they will send to you through Whirled mail if you do win. Most the time there are a bunch of people watching when a battle goes down, and it can get pretty exciting.

How can I become a manager?
There are no open slots for managers currently, because there are already quite enough. If a manager does happen to leave, then there is an open spot for another person, but even if you do become a manager, this does not promise you will get your own gym in the front hall. So, if the chance of a manager leaving does happen, you will need to be pretty popular with the managers to become the next manager. This means doing a bunch of battles and just hanging out with them.

Rules to the battles
A big rule is to not use over four different moves in one battle. This is not possible in the actual Pokemon games and is basically cheating. Doing this will result in warning or a small drain of your HP. Do not say stuff like "Missed!", "Critical Hit!", or even "Super Effective!" when you are not the manager hosting the battle. Leave it to the managers to host, and you can't just pick and choose which attacks you want to miss or hit. Only one pokemon is allowed in a single battle, so this means you cannot swap out pokemon when one gets weak. The pokemon has to fight until it wins or faints. And no healing moves or potions please! It gets very annoying and doesn't give the opponent a fair chance unless the healing move brings down your defense or something. NO ONE-HIT KILL ATTACKS!

Other Stuff
Don't bug the managers of the group unless you wish to be removed from the group. Just be a good sport, play in battles often, and do what the managers tell you to do. Also, DO NOT get in front of the battles or on the plates when it is not your fight. This gets very annoying and you have one warning until you are booted from the room. Please keep from talking much during a battle because it becomes difficult for the managers to read and it just slows everything down. Relax, sit back, and watch the battle take place.
