"Mystery is something that is difficult or impossible to understand or explain."

Welcome to the Arcanum, we are a school tailored to arts of Mystery. Under the Academy, we teach and learn of the mystery which surrounds not just magic, but reality itself. We know nothing compared to the vastness of our Universe, through out the time passed on this blue world, we know not how this universe came to be, how it will end or how we exist at all. Consider it a science or history, because we can't honestly understand which. Mystery shrouds us all, our deepest thoughts and our past can be mysterious to everyone, but only if you learn how. Through our teachings and your discoveries, you can push past any obstacle or mystery in magical and arcane arts, you face and go on to become an enigma, or further to be The Arcane. Then you will be a mystery yourself.

Welcome to the Mage Division, where we will practice our skills and techniques through repeated battles. The path to becoming an all-powerful mystic is a long one, but here at the Mage Division we will hone our magic and be able to wipe out all who oppose us! Our strength will burn even stronger than the mighty Firagun Storm, and Master Delphox will guide your path to strength as a mage. Your journey begins now!

Welcome to the Academy War Team!

Here the best of the best students we have to offer show off their skills and knowledge obtained through their journey, those who are strong shall bring glory to The Academy. the students who wish to partake and or join the war team must comply by meeting the requirements as well as using only pokebank ou, the requirements are: 1) 3 teams are required for all war team members 2) You will also need to pass an EXAM 3) there is no limit to how many times you can try for the war team, should you score well on on your exam you will be accepted into the ranks of the war team, good luck to you...also you may automatically qualify for the war team if i know of your battle skills first hand.


Here at the academy we use these test scores to determine if you are ready to join the elite ranks and prove to all others we are a force not to be messed with as such the war team will be rotated every other war so everyone has a chance to participate but the main squad is absolute. Also to all war team members you must show me you are active as we cannot have inactivity during a war, failure to do will result in you being out on the "no war" list for the next war until activity is proven. PLEASE REFER TO THESE SCORES IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING THE WAR TEAM REQUIREMENTS:
~ Beat 0 of the tester's Pokemon = 0 Points.
~ Beat 1 of the tester's Pokemon = 2 Points.
~ Beat 2 of the tester's Pokemon = 4 Points.
~ Beat 3 of the tester's Pokemon = 5 Points.
~ Beat 4 of the tester's Pokemon = 7 Points.
~ Beat 5 of the tester's Pokemon = 8 Points.
~ Beat the tester's Pokemon = 10 Points.


After the test of 3 mandatory battles, your average score shall be calculated. Here is the formula:

Average Score equals to: Total Score / 3.
So, for example, if someone gets 7, 5 and 8 in their battles, we would add the score up. After that, it has to be divided by 3.

7+5+8=20
20/3=6.66
Score Needed: 7
Result: Not qualified for the War Team.


WAR TEAM MEMBERS:
1)akafila (akaFila~)

CURRENT WAR:
TBA
OUR ONE RULE: I dont care if we go 0-20 or 2-10 or whatever record we get, we play for fun, so losing and winning is part of it; so hold your head up high if we win or if we lose its about fun!!! so no pressure, just do your best and you are a winner!!!

ACADEMY SCHOOL STORE
Here at the student store you can purchase battle ready Pokemon and battle ready items at the cost of student tokens. To do this you use your spell tomes as currency. For example someone who has 50 Spell Tomes via the requirements will also have the same amount in form of school tokens (50 Spell Tomes = 50 School Tokens) i will keep track of your tokens. so for every time you spend your tokens it will not be subtracted from your tomes only your tokens. Anybody is more than welcome to deposit Pokemon and items (preferably competitive useful) you will get Spell Tomes in return....Happy Shopping..

Lets start discussion then. I think the console war might be interesting since the XBox One and PS4 came out recently.

The new generation stuff imo is a bit of a bland. Nothing amazingly new has been brought to the table. But consoles aren't the important things really but the games so let's discuss the important things. At the moment with their latest consoles, I believe Nintendo is winning. Mainly it has the most solid line up ATM with new great games coming in the Q1 2014. I know it won't last very long though. Nintendo isn't competing in the console war so it doesn't matter much to them either. So really, PS4 or Xbox One, who is winning in your opinion? I think PS4, but that is for budget reasons :)

Cool so I have the post (thanks Mcdanger)
Alright so I'll put in all my stuff for my division either tonight or tomorrow morning.

And as for battling, I'll be up to battle anyone here after one hour (gotta eat dinner)

And sixth Gen metagame is still a bit of a Hodgepodge mess right now, but Greninja and Aegislash are definitely monsters that ravage teams. I recommend everyone watch flaming spade's series "competitive crunch" on YouTube. I really think its useful.

Btw YouTube app for 3DS is out now
