Showdown battlers of LV, I summon thee! BZ suggested something recently that I think could be interesting. "We could try a thing where we have Showdown Tournaments but participants are limited to Pokémon that they have in the catcher, and they earn badges from their placement in those tournaments." I was thinking also we could have some themed gym leaders to beat for certain badges and the likes. Would you guys be interested in something like this? I would limit the pool somewhat but I think it would be an interesting way to integrate both sites together on our server (if its up at the time).
Question - would it be levels and all? Like, if I have a Level 41 Palkia, does it have to be Level 41?
Would have to figure that out but I think we will let the Pokémon be level 100 and either keep out the legendaries or put them lower
I think just keeping them out would be better, honestly - they can be too easy to get during events for how good of Pokémon they are. I like the idea of this although I personally would struggle in the format because my Pokémon aren't very good, the only time I've evolved something on-site was hatching a Palkia egg.
It would be in a while, probably starting next summer or something so plenty of time to evolve somethings. The idea would be to get people to want to post more to get their Pokémon levels etc.
Part of the idea behind this was to encourage members to train their Pokémon in the catcher in order to help increase site activity.
Sounds like a blast. Probably means that "Best Pokémon" has to sit on the sidelines for a bit while I train up some winners.
Since we are going for full lvl 100s regardless of LV levels I expect to see that Kecleon on the battlefield mister
Could be cool! I'm assuming duplicates aren't allowed, right? So I'm not allowed a team of six Fletchli-
@Ignem Correct it would be a case of evolving your catcher mons and catching some of the rarer ones you may want on your team.
Random question that I should've thought up months ago: if we really are going to do this, how should we treat LV-exclusive mons like Lovebird (classic and Hisuian alike) and Shadow Deoxys (I forgot when they came in here tbh)?
Oh! I'm not much of a Showdown user but this sounds fun (heh I got banned for a long while once due to my internet being EXTREMELY bad and triggering a bot ban (??) due to accidentally posting the same thing 13 times -was talking to my bf)
They simply wouldnt be eligible to fight sadly. Oh dang yeah I have seen that happen before, hopefully your internet is better now
