Also, I was under the impression you wanted to set up a sort of "gym leader" type deal on here where others could challenge the mono-type teams.
Well, yes and no. It's basically gym leaders vs. gym leaders. We all specialize in one type and the goal is to just beat as many other gym leaders as possible. I guess you could say, whoever makes it in the top four get to become the "Elite 4".
Oh, I'll throw this idea here for now.
How about the top eight become "Gym Leaders" for a time?
People have to make a team to beat all eight, like the games.

But on the trainer's team, there must be one starter and no legendaries. Also, the team first picked by the trainer is what they have to use throughout the battles, or they'll just be at a constant large advantage.
I like that, but I think the top four is better. Goes with the Elite 4, and we only have twelve players anyway (which is actually double than what I had anticipated, so I'm quite happy with the player turnout thus far)
we should definitly do the elite 4 thing

Just FYI: my name on there is Cheatlancer. Cheat was obviously taken.

EDIT: Also, I was under the impression you wanted to set up a sort of "gym leader" type deal on here where others could challenge the mono-type teams.
Are you okay with giving the titlebar prefix "Elite" to those who make the Elite Four?

Further tournaments could involve beating the entire Elite Four, attaining the "Champion" or "Pokémon Master" titlebar if successful... or something like that. And from then on, whoever goes through the same process and dethrones the previous Champion becomes the new Champion.

I just figure that there ought to be some prize.

"Ornate chandeliers suspended from a vaulted ceiling lit the spacious chamber; Jack tilted his gaze overhead and noticed how far away they were.  His thoughts wove around those bright lights, like a dance of ether masses spiraling in precious unison. Why must we try to clutch desperately for the mere threads of this world when we can clasp onto a tapestry of untold magnificence beyond this plane of existence?"
Can I choose the normal type and make a party of Blisseys?

That reminds me--I ought to make a legit team soon to battle you with.

If I'm honest, I've never made a non-gimmick Gen VI team yet. I ran this pretty sweet Drizzle team back in Gen V, but now that weather is bad again, I lost interest in making any other teams for awhile. If I went back and tried to make a Drizzle team now, how well would that work out for me?

I tend towards flashy strategies using low-tier 'mons that aren't necessarily practical, but are fun to pull off. But there comes a point where some 'mons and some strategies are just doomed to failure, and I hope rain isn't.

Not sure when I'll be able to battle... My computer has been sperging out these past few days and chances are I'm gonna have to replace something. When I get that done, I'll be able to begin battling.
Can I get a username, at least?

Rain offense is decent, especially now that there's a Mega that benefits from Rain (Swampert).

What's going on with your computer? Does Showdown not work?
