Yes but i am not finished with my team. also what would happen if i lose? do i lose points and get negative?

Ok, I will wait until you finish. No you will not lose MP. If I win I will gain 2 MP, because I have already beat you once, and you will lose 0 MP. If you win you will get 1 MP and I will lose 0 MP.

ok. I downloaded it with no problem...
Edit: I set up my team, but I don't know how to engage in a battle.

I'm glad Nytz! Now you should go to Teambuilder and make you a team or a copy of the one you already have on your DS.

done that already. but now I don't know how to battle. But yeah, I'm tired now, so I'll figure it out later.

Oh ok, I was getting ready to say lets battle really quick. You battle by clicking "Go Online" and then clicking a Server you want to go to. Click Pokemon Online which is the main server I like to go to and then search for a person on the left hand side or either click "Find Battle" at the bottom of the screen to battle a random person. VM when you can battle because I really wanna battle you again! Also my name on there is [TRDRS]PokeTrader too.

ok then.

When i get my username will there too

Hey TRDRS im ready. You down to battle?

Sure PhantomXTrainer! Meet me in the Pokemon Online Server!

I'm glad you guys are enjoying yourselves. ^_^
I guess it's safe to say this is a success. Now, if only we can get some bounties...

Well me and PhantomXTrainer had a battle and I won barely because of some misses! It was still a good game! I now get 2 MP and I am now a Peon!

hey I won my first battle

Great work!

Which reminds me. Do you know of any good pixel artists that can make trophies/badges for the ranks? this will distinguish members and their ranks for all to see. Trouble is, though with the right tools, I could do it myself, I unfortunately don't have the right tools.

Srry for double post, but i forgot to say against someone on PO

I can do all of the Badges for the Ranks! I am great at making stuff like that! Leave it to me and I will upload all of them here when I am done you to add them here and the Social Group!

@PhantomXTrainer You can edit your own posts Phantom, you don't have to double post all of the time. Just click edit in the bottom, right-hand corner of your posts to edit them.

alright Trdrs! I wait in anticipation now. Take your time though.

Ok, I might have them done tomorrow, if not then Friday, and they will be the best Badges you have ever saw!

FRONT PAGE UPDATE: well, we're officially also doing PO (Pokemon Online) Battles as well.

Edit: Front Page Updated: Trdrs is officially promoted to Peon rank.

I really like the idea of PO, but the thing is you can have any pokemon you want and there is no hard work involved. But anyways I really love it

The only thing that sucks about PO (in my opinion) that you have to read all the attacks in the chat in order to know whats going on. Theres no attack animations or nothen, so its alot harder if your not used to fast texting and stuff.

Well.... I'm willing to make some minor regulations to it. maybe perhaps making POs count for half of the amount of original MP earnings.... unless it's against Newbies. Personally, I won't be doing much PO battles...

Front Page Update: PO battle update

Ya same here, I wont be using it unless i have too.

Front Page Update:

Edit: However, PO battles only allow you to earn half the amount of MP you can win by doing regular DS battles.... with the exception of battles between two Newbies. then MP cost reduction will not be affected. I'm contemplating if MP consecutive wins should be put out of the equation with PO Battles as well.

I'm willing to have a team discussion about this. This team is developed by the members and so are the rules. so... discuss away.

yeah about that... i still cant find anyone to battle. Can i battle you regular with the regular member match? on DS?

Ok I'll battle you.

Im not totally sure what to say for that? I guess half MP when using PO but if someone dosnt have a DS at all or dosnt have one at the time being (Like it broke or got lost) then give them full MP they earn.

hmm... you make a valid point there. still, since this clan is really for the DS, I think it could still work. let's see what others have to say.

You know I could battle you guys many times if you want, I'll just use a different team everytime you rematch me that way its a real challenge. cause you never what team I will be using i'll mix it up. Also that way i can test those teams to see there good enough to use on harder opponets in the future.

Ok. well, you can face PhantomXTrainer. I think you may prove a better challenge than me at the moment. Still raising a new teamate.

ok kakashi i challenge you for a regular member match via Black and white! Beware: MY TEAM SUCKS!

I guess I could battle ya. Just send me a pm with your Friend Code and stuff. My FC of course is either in my profile or in my Sig below in the trainer card thing.

in the sig

Garchomp has been banned by smogon

EDIT: Sorry for the double post

ya my fc in my signature in the trainer card thing. I gotyour Fc through your profile so after you get mine just head into wifi. I know that garchomp is banned so i wont be using him.

sorry just connected router spaz. in min the room

i beat PhantomxTrainer. So i get 1 MP right?

yep

ok cool

did you win consecutively against other members before him? if so, you get moremember points based on how many consecutive wins.

well just you and phantom so i get 3MP or more?

if you didn't lose between them battles, Let's see....

2 consecutive wins= +1 MP bonus.

Are we using OU and under, or also Uber?

OUs and under...

Defense deoxys is OU right? Cause i just used him today

actually, I don't really know.

Wow! A lot has went on today! Anyway, I think PO battles should be the same as DS battles in earning MP. Also Deoxy-D is OU, Kakashi.

Also for consecutive battle bonus MP points, do they count separately between members or all together?

Ex: I have fought you twice and won both times and I have fought PhantomXTrainer twice and won both times also. So do I get 2 MP + 1 Bonus MP for you and 2 MP + 1 Bonus MP for PhantomXTrainer equaling 6 MP or do I get 4 MP + 6 Bonus MP equaling 10 MP?

Answer if its the 1st or 2nd option ok. By the way I like the 2nd option, lol!

it counts for every consecutive win regardless of the members... as long as it is between members.

As for the PO Battle thing, I feel it should still be halved in the MP count except for Newbie vs Newbie. But I think this still may be up in the air. if not halved, I need to put some sort of regulation on it.

feel free to discuss.

Ok, Thanks Nytz!

I still think it should be the same MP gain as DS battles. The restriction could be only to use it when you have too.

well... hmm... I guess based on the team's decision, It will be unhindered.

I won't battle much on PO, but you guys can. Or maybe we can make it a whole new category of a point system altogether? And maybe they can be converted to MP? I don't know.

EDIT: It could be called PP. *Shrugs*

I still think it should be the same as DS because it is still battling but on a different system.

Ahhhh i lost i will get poketrader next time

Yea, GG Kakashi! That will be a battle for both here and my Gym ok!

Also I am now in the Hunter Rank! Awesome!

Just updated your rank promotion, TRDRS

I redid my team, Poketrader will be the next one to lose. (I hope) And i made sure the team didnt take any counter advantage of his team or anything like that.

Umm...that was my Dragon Gym team, beside I have a team that is specifically for Team Lunacy. I have fought Nytz with it already and sweep him 6-0. I'm not bragging but watch out Kakashi! This team has won 106 battles in a row with 0 losses, I'm not kidding! Good Luck in our next battle though Kakashi!

EDIT: conflict resolved. rogues won't be on this thread.

New Update: Tag system

My final idea. I will be randomly selecting a member here for a Tagged status. With this status that only I will know, you who is selected will be treated as a bounty for a few days. you won't know who you are until you are defeated.... but there will be subtle hints that may throw it off.

this is just an Idea. Any objections?

(not again... double post)

Hmmm.... I don't thinks its that great nor if it will work out good. You will get a bounty here soon, I know it!

ok. well... that depletes my list of ideas.

I guess you're right, because now that I think of it, it will make the team turn on each other... I wouldn't want that.

Yea, just hold of on ideas for now, Team Lunacy is at its best!

Sometimes simplicity can surpass complexity, says a wise man.... (of course I have no clue if a wise man said that or I just made that up...)

in other words, why ruin something already great the way it is? I understand now. thank you guys.

I'm glad you understand! Anyway do you want to have a battle on PO, Nytz? Btw this isn't a Dare Challenge.

I'm sorry. I've been very busy lately with my cousin around. Plus I'm doing a project as we speak. I probably won't be doing nearly as many battles as you guys will for a few weeks. plus the birthday... I'll officially no longer be a kid in a few weeks. v_v

I'll try to battle when things settle down.

Ok. Good Luck on your project and Happy Early Birthday!

hey poketrader you still doing those VGC battles you getting ready for? I'll battle ya through PO sometime if you want. I think there using all unova pokemon right. cause I listened to smogons smog cast and they where talking about the VGC's and it sounded kinda cool and I wanted to try the metagame put for this years VGC's. (I wont be going to the VGC's but i wanna get a feel of it)

Yea I still do those every now and then! PM me for a time you can battle and I would be glad to battle you!

ok cool you would have to me there rules though cause i dont know them

hey TRDRS, Can't stay for long, but have you got started on the rank badges? If not, no pressure, and take your time, just don't forget.

The rules are here Kakashi: http://www.pokemonvgc.com/en/regulations

Also I have finished the Member Rank Badges. I will upload thim in a little bit. I am getting started on the Bounty Rank Badges now.

Aww man, at this rate, i will only be stuck with a newbie badge

don't worry... same here... but remember, this is only for fun.

Try upgrading your team, maybe that will work. POKETRADER i'll look over the rules and build team afterwards.

Don't worry PhantomXTrainer, you will get a win soon! Ok, KakashiDragon! By the way, I have to go now because I have a big day tomorrow! I will try to get all of the Badges uploaded by tomorrow afternoon or either first thing Sunday morning! Soory that everyone has to wait so long!

Dang its been awhile since i have been here! TRDRS told me about this clan, its seems pretty cool and I would like to be a bounty here! So who will I battle? WARNING: TRDRS has taught me everything I know about battling and I'm almost as good as he is!

I cannot battle at the moment, but I'm sure a member here is willing to accept your challenge. I give people a chance to battle first before they become a bounty or member, but in your case, since you declared that you wanted to be a bounty... we'll see what we can do. >:3

Ok, Nytz! I am ready for any challenger you throw at me so go ahead and pick a person that you want me to battle!

P.S. It can only be on PO as I don't have a team ready on my White Version yet!

The hunt is on! >:3

calling all PO battler Lunacy members. seek and defeat this trainer:

DragonMaster100: Reward: 5 BP

It will start at 5 BP but for every loss of my team the number rises.

Ok, come on anyone! Challenge me now! I need a good battle! *Hopes TRDRS doesn't show up and challenge me soon, he is the only one I think that can beat me*

I'll leave it open for now in case anyone challenges you. It may be too late for now, but you never know.

Ok. I really want to battle you but why can't I battle you now? You have PO and you are the Leader of Team Lunacy so you must be strong!

@DragonMaster: I'm actually busy doing life. my cousins are at my house and I have to spend time with them. I also have many other lists of things to do that's not really worth mentioning.

BTW, should you lose, the numbers will reset back to 5 BP, and although I'm very flattered you think of me as a strong trainer, I'm actually not that good... ^_^;;
I just wanted to make a new way to enjoy battling on pokemon... and it's proving successful! also, to conclude, I'm more of a DS battler, so I have no experience yet with PO.

Oh crap! I guess I will have to battle you TRDRS! Meet me in the PO server now!

Ok, DM100! I will post the battle results in the Social Group!

TRDRS! You just wait! I am going to defeat you! You put me to shame with a 6-0 win! I will destroy you in our next battle!

Ok DM100! Bring all that you got in our next battle! I will still defeat you!

you guys seem to be enjoying yourselves ^_^

A little strategy though, TRDRS. try to wait until the bounty defeat more people so it's BP count can escalate, then come in for the kill. If what you say is true about this bounty, and with your skills, It should be no problem. of course, Bounty, don't underestimate the other members too. >:3

I wish that I could win a battle for once!

Snivy's inactivity will result in him being removed from the team.

Last call, Snivy. Please become active, or I must relieve you of your duties.

The dragon master hasnt battled me yet. I wounder if my wrath will overwelm him. (He only battles on PO not the DS?)

Ok Nytz! I will do that! Also you will win a battle soon Phantom! Yes Kakashi, he only can battle on PO because he doesn't have a team ready on his DS.

I see. well if he wants i'll battle him that way i can test my new PO team before i rematch you

I have an important question can you get MP for battling random people that ain't on the forum?

Ok Kakashi! No Aqua, MP stand for Member Points so the person must be a member of Team Lunacy.

I was thinking... should BP can be earned for people outside of the member list? that goes for any person outside of team lunacy? as long as you PM me the name of the outsider so that we can post him up as a bounty, you may earn BP if you win. should this be allowed?

Discussion begins.... Now.

Edit: and should this also go for people outside of the VR forums? As long as the outsider is posted and informed, then BP can be earned... but I'm leaving it up to the team to decide.

That is true. But then between all the people in VR, should it be....

...

NEW IDEA.

Should it matter what version of pokemon you play at all or how you play (Pearl,Diamond--B/W--PO) in order to join Team Lunacy? Should there be different "occupations" based on the preference of a trainer... so as long as two can engage in a battle?

Example: Nytz- Ranks: Newbie/New Moon Occcupation: DS trainer- (Black/white).
Other Examples: CPU1 Ranks: Peon/ Gibbous moon Occupation: DS trainer: (Pearl/diamond, etc) /Pokemon Online (PO)

The occupations can help people see how they can engage you in battle. It can be PO, Diamond, pearl, Platinum, HG,SS, B&W.

Discuss.

No to the first option because you could rack up BP really fast and it wouldnt be fair to others.

No to the second option because this Clan is only for Black & White.

...ok. anyone else before I make my decision?

Edit: I need to figure out ways to help the others gain their confidence to stay here. I'm not worried about you, TRDRS. You are doing excellent... but everyone else are still newbies. I need to find ways to make it at least a little bit easier for them to gain points, because if not their frustration may lead to them defecting from the team.
