The Story of Team Sky

The story of Team Sky is considered by some to be a exciting tale, by others a history of misfortune, but to the privileged few who can claim membership it is a proud history. It all starts out around twenty-five years ago, the people of the Hoenn region were just beginning to rebuild all that had been destroyed in the conflict between Kyogre and Groudon caused by Team Magma and Team Aqua. A young man in his twenties was hired along with many others to help rebuild Sky Tower. He worked the same long hours as all the other men, putting up steel beams and laying cement to add support to the broken tower. But one day while working he came across a finely cut stone. Seeing this he immediately snatched up the rock and threw it in his pocket. While traveling home late that night he felt as if something was watching him, following him, and he saw a massive shadow pass over top of him. Later he found out that it was Rayquaza that had been following him and that the stone he had found was called the Sky Diamond and was to Rayquaza what the red and blue orbs were to Kyogre and Groudon. Using the power of the Sky Diamond this man took control of Rayquaza and used its power to take control of the Hoenn region, where he ruled over it from his base atop Sky Tower. It has been many years since then and Team Sky has grown in leaps and bounds, its numbers have swelled and its influence has become widespread. Its power has become too great for the Hoenn region to contain, and so it has spread out to take control of other regions. Construction has begun on bases in the Sevii Islands and underneath Unova.

My name is Trident. I am that man who inherited the Sky Diamond all those years ago. This is my Clan, Team Sky passed down to me from notelobo. Our main base is in the Hoenn region at the top of Sky Tower. Recently I have requested some of the higher ups in my clan to move around to other regions and Begin taking them over. This is our new post to mark a new beginning for the power of Team Sky. We now have three divisions. The Team Sky Island Hoppers who work out of the Sevii Islands, the Team Sky Subway Raiders who work out of the Unova underground, and the Team Sky Tower Guards who work out of our home base in Sky Tower.

POINTS​

Ok everyone. To rank up you need points. Getting these points are fairly easy.
1. Any leader can give you any number of points, but this decision must be backed by at least two other admins.
2. Battling as explained in the divisions 40 points
3. If you trade someone a pokemon you get 10 points.
If you RNG for someone you get 10 points.
If you make a piece of art for someone you get 10 points
If you post a 'good' RMT post to help someone you get 10 points. A post is deemed 'good' by the RMT owner

BATTLING RULES:
If you have a 3-win streak, you get 10 plus the 40 points on the third battle
If you have a 7-win streak, you get 20 plus the 40 points on the seventh battle
If you have an 11-win streak, you get 40 plus the 40 points on the eleventh battle
If you break anyone's streak, you get 10 plus 40 points, along with any other points if in your own streak
If you have a 5-lose streak, you will lose 10 points.
If you have a 10-lose streak, you will lose 20 points. DO NOT WORRY: YOU WILL NOT BE DEMOTED.
WARNING: You MUST post the results of the battle, you and your opponent. Both must post the forms in the division posts. This is the only way we will count the win or loss.

WHEN YOU RANK UP EVERY ODD RANK, (AFTER THE FIRST RANK), YOU WILL OBTAIN A'GIFT' FROM THE ADMINS, WHETHER IT BE POINTS, A POKEMON, GOOD RMT ADVICE, ETC.

NOTE FOR DIVISIONS!

To rank up you need points. Every time you beat someone in the whole clan you get 20 points, but you can only battle that person once a day, for points, so you don't rank yourselves up by cheating. I can give points to you on how well you battle anytime I want to. Also there are jobs and you can get points from that.

Team Sky Tower Guards

Division Rules
1. Always work to better yourself as a person and as a battlers
2. Follow all the rules of Serebii
3. Never do or say anything online you wouldn't do or say in real life
4. Always respond to another clan member in need
5. Work to encourage teamwork and cooperation in all things you do
6. Listen to your senior or commanding officers
7. Never spam, troll, flame, or anything else that makes online forums annoying
8. Have fun, don't be to serious

Tower Guards Mission
The mission of this division of Team Sky is to be the heart of the organization. Therefore this will most likely always be the largest division that we have. Those who are members of the Tower Guards live in our home base of Sky Tower in the Hoenn region. Where we spend out time training and perfecting battling techniques for both new battlers and old veterans. All are welcome here in team sky. If you wish to join this division just fill out the application posted in the original post and we should be on our way. This portion of Team Sky will run just like it has since it started. Therefore all the ranks will be the same and all the point systems will be the same. If you don't want to try something new just stick ehre and enjoy yourself =)

Team Sky Tower Guards Ranking System
Ways to get points
100 to every member every time we win a clan war. Everyone helps so everyone gets rewarded.
You will also gain 50 points for battling a person in the clan.

Points for Ranks
same as the OP rules

As of 7/25/2012 all Clan battles for points must follow all Smogon rules for the tier in which they are played in. All violations of this followed by a claim of points will result in the subtraction of points equal to double the amount that would have been earned from that battle had it been legitimate.


??? any number of points can be awarded by trident20, viker2, thatcrazyrussian,ghots of the forums for help with the clan in anyway they deem worth extreme reward

You are in charge of keeping track of your own clan points and we run on the honor system here. So please be honest. Try and keep track of how you got your points in a notepad and when you have enough points to rank up just post it on the bottom of the clan page with a short list of things you did to obtain these points and an Admin will check these for legitimacy and send you your new rank if appropriate and proved.

[Lord of Fire]

Hello. As you can see, my name is Viker2. My special ops Island Hoppers were given direct orders from Notelobo himself to
conquer the Sevii Islands. But, instead of conquering it, we decided to cover it in ice!! We drove out Moltres and seized the Sevii Islands. However, after Notelobo disappeared, we stopped our campaign and are preparing ourselves....for the final strike...

So to rank up, you need points. For now, every time you win a battle against a clan member, you gain 40 points. (Specific requirements are stated in first post.) However, you need to record the score of the battle, and post the record like this:
Opponent:
Score:
Your Division:
Opponent's Division:
Rate of your battling(out of 50):
Rate of your opponent's battling(out of 50):
Notes?:
The opponent must make sure of this score and agree. You cannot battle this person again if you won, but if you lost, you can challenge them again.

Ok, so, after you apply, you can optionally take part in a placement match. If you are assessed in a placement match, then you can be awarded:
0 points
150 points
300 points
500 points

according to your performance. Notice how these points are the requirements for the first four ranks. The placement match is optional of course, but it is recommended to do so and you don't lose anything.

Points: ∞ uber-points

2. There is no 'challenging' for captain status; the admins will decide if there should be a change, then issue a test battle.
3. There are NO 'recommendations' for new members to be an automatic war team member. All must first be a sub, the tested.

This is our special events post. this includes having every activity gaining double points for a week, having the opposite happen of the previous event stated, making you use a certain type of pokemon in battle for a week, and only that pokemon. for example, you can only have scizors on your team. Another one is having battle-streak-requirement decreased by 2 for a 3 days, which means you could get 50 points for winning a battle, and other wacky things that can make things more....interesting. The main goal of these would be to increase your battling skills and getting comfortable with other restrictions in a more 'fun' way.​

Spoiler: Current Events

We have planned a special event. The date and time will be verified soon.
