Welcome To The Battle Arena!
To Train: Type *training* into any of your posts. (Daily, Nightly, Battle) This way, I will know when you are training. In return, I will be able to add up your training EXP. CANNOT train while healing, or during Deadly Life, that's just morbid.
To Battle a Wild Pokémon: When an encounter happens (I will post in the Daily), only the person who posts right after may choose to battle the Pokémon. You may not random post just to capture it, it must either be by chance (because you post just after), or specifically go for it. If they accept, I will determine if they win the battle solely based on types (traits). If you defeat the Pokémon, and you would like to catch the Pokémon, quote my Pokémon encounter from Daily into this Pokémon Battles thread. This will count as if you are throwing the Poké Ball. The success rate is as follows: Daily 1 = 100%, Daily 2 = 90%, Daily 3 = 80%, etc. Another important thing, you may use any newly caught Pokémon to battle wild Pokémon or NPC's, but not each other. Not everyone may get additional Pokémon, so you may only use your starter Pokémon to battle each other. You will know that you caught the Pokémon if I like your post. (to keep things easy)
If they decline battling the Pokémon, they can pass it on to the next person who posted after them. The same rules apply.
To Battle an NPC: If you would like to battle an NPC (anyone you see on the map), tag me in this thread and tell me who you would like to battle (or if you don't care who, just say you would like to battle an NPC). They will be the same method as battling a wild Pokémon (solely based off type), but they will be harder to beat, since they are more experienced. If you talk to the NPC in Daily, they might tell you are type of Pokémon they have before you battle them, but not all of them are that kind.
To Battle Each Other: There are 3 ways to battle each other. Battles are conducted via Discord or Skype!
1) For those who have a Pokémon from the Pokémon Universe, and are using the same type (traits) as that Pokémon, you can use Pokémon Showdown! I will teach you how to use it if needed, but it is EXTREMELY handy, and easier to work with.
2) For everyone else, or those who don't want to use it, you can PM me, and I'll simulate the battle. It's not as fun, but it gets the job done.
3) For everyone else, or those who don't want to use showdown or the simple way, you may use this battle thread to fight each other. Here's how it will go:
► Everyone who is in the battle MUST agree to battling. Fair is fair.
► Everyone starts with whatever HP they have. In the beginning, everyone has full health. Remember, HP is based on level, to keep it fair.
► Anything that raises SP ATK or SP DEF will only raise ATK or DEF. No SP please, is too hard.
► The amount of damage you do is based on the power of your attack, divided by 10. Example, tackle has a power of 40. 40 divided by 10 is 4, so you would be doing 4 damage. (It sounds like a little bit, but it should work out)
► Any buff or debuff moves will add + or - accordingly to the attack after it has been divided by 10. Example, Calm Mind (after applying previous said bullet) will raise the ATK and DEF by +1. Using a tackle afterward would be worth 5 damage, instead of 4.
► The player with the highest speed goes first. After that, it depends on if someone uses moves to increase SPD. It's the same rules as the ATK/DEF buffs/debuffs.
► When it comes to the types (traits), "strong against" gives you x1.5 to your attack damage. Example, if you are a Fairy type, and you attacks a Dark type with a Fairy move that has a power of 40, you will do 4 x 1.5 damage. (6 damage). "Weak against" just shows you which types to look out for, you don't lose any DEF or anything like that.
► Speaking of DEF, to keep things easy for you and me, everyone has the same base DEF, unless you level up or use a move to increase DEF. Base ATK is the same.
► If you attack with a move that is the same type as you, you get a x1.5 bonus to your attack. Example, if you are a fairy type, and you use a Fairy type move, you will add x1.5 attack damage to your damage. (The same as "strong against")
► For anyone who wants to use abilities, this is for you to decide what to do. I'm not gonna lie, I don't know how to go about that. If someone comes up with something with abilities, please let me know.
► Above all else, I have trust in you all to keep it a fair, clean battle. I won't sit around monitoring each and every battle (well, maybe I will), just let me know who won and who lost. If any arguments come up, let me know and I will do my best to solve it.
► If anything comes up, MESSAGE ME to get my attention. There will be mess-up, I know it. This is a very simplistic way of battling, but it was the only thing I could come up with. If anyone has ideas that might work better, please let me know! (Ahem)
To Heal Wounded/Fainted Pokémon: All you need to do it type *healing* in a post. You cannot train while you are healing. Ez Pz.
To Trade Pokémon: Just message each other to make/seal the deal. No need to let me know, unless there is a problem. I trust you all.

ETC.
ETC.
Training = 1 EXP per post
Wild Pokémon Battles = 5 EXP
NPC Battles = 10 EXP
Player Battles = 20 EXP for winner / 2 EXP for loser
Wild Pokémon Battles = 5 EXP
NPC Battles = 10 EXP
Player Battles = 20 EXP for winner / 2 EXP for loser
The point of this is to have fun, most of all. If heated arguments or actual fights break out because of the battling, I will take away battling each other, and you will only be able to battle wild Pokémon or NPC.
(I'm sure I left stuff out in these rules. New rules can be added/altered rules at my discretion. Be sure to check out the rules if something comes up, and I'll add new ones when they do. The first few battles between players will most likely be test runs.)
This thread is only for Pokémon battling, or related talk. Anything else goes in daily/nightly. And yes, you can battle during both daily and nightly. It's for the funzies, and will not be related to the actual murder game.
you got this
