Give me more freedom to do battle the way I want. This Rhyperior challenge is a good one because I have options. The Fletchling one was restricting because I HAD to battle in LC and all the pokemon on the team had to be from gen 6. It was too restricting. The Gengar challenge made me use the D Bond set and it's not a set I use because it doesn't fit my playstyle. I'm all for trying different things, but if I am forced to play in a way that doesn't fit me, then I'm not going to do it.
And there is my rant for the day lol
But Lynx, it would be good for your Youtube Channel to partake in some of these Challenges, and the reason I am changing it, it because of how I automatically have you do certain things.
Anyways, now to the announcement. The Spotlight Challenge update that I was thinking of changing to isn't too far off from what it is now.
1. Initially the plan is too, choose a Pokemon like I already do now. (Ex: Fletchling's Challenge last week).
2. Now for step two, being that instead of making 2 Challenge Rules, I may post a Tier, Battle Style, or Theme for you to construct a team around. (Ex: Like Fletchling's Challenge when you had to battle in LC as well as the Theme being MonoGen), and usually when I choose a LC Pokemon, I just don't expect you to go and use it in OU, but most times I may only choose one of the above, and not two.
3. All Challenges will require;
- Follow the Spotlight Battle Format Chosen!
- The Spotlight Pokemon to be used during the battle for a total of 3 turns (meaning 3 moves used total).
- Spotlight Pokemon kept alive during the battle.
4. Lastly for how you'll earn the points, which will be determined based on how you complete the Challenge;
- 2MP/2BP for just using the Spotlight Pokemon in Battle.
- 4MP/4BP for Completing the Challenge in half. (Meaning: You didn't follow or complete one of the requirements in full.)
- 5MP/5BP for Completing the Challenge in Full!
This means you'll gain some points for just using that Pokemon in Battle whether you want to follow the required challenge rules or not.
Point Earning aren't confirmed yet, they may change to fit the new format, or they may stay the way I just posted them.
Let me know, if you would like it this way, and/or if there is anything else I should add, or attempt to remove.
