Welcome to the Paragon League!
This League is intended to be the best. (Or as close as possible)
The Leaders are expected to be flexible.
The Challengers should prepare for an excellent battle.


This is the Paragon League, where the battles are fierce and the battlers fight hard.
We accept any challenger willing to battle.
Our three divisions allow for battles over Wifi in flat or open, as well as battles via Pokémon Online.

To join, please post your Username, In-Game Name, and Friend Code, and put this banner in your signature(without the asterisks):

Attention! I won't have access to a computer from 7/3 to 7/9, so the Paragon League won't have a moderator for the next week.
Leaders, you'll be in charge of rewarding badges. When I get back, I'll add all of those badges to each challenger's record.
Challengers, since I can't update which gym is open and which is closed, assume every gym is challengeable. However, Leaders may deny a challenge. Just so ya know.



PLEASE READ THE RULES
  1. No hacks. None. Hackers will be banned.
    If you suspect that a hack is being used, please finish the battle, choose to save the video, upload it to Nintendo, and in your PM to me include the video #.
  2. Please obey all SPPF Rules and follow standard rules when battling.
  3. Gen V games only, for wifi badges.
  4. Pokémon Online battles will not count towards wifi badges, and vice versa.
  5. Single Battles only.
  6. All open battles are at lvl 100
  7. The following Pokémon, abilities, and items are banned (Each leader may allow certain Pokémon from this list, or restrict others):

  8. Gym Leaders should use a 3:3 team (3 of his/her type, and 3 of any other he/she might desire) in open battles or 2:1 for flat battles
  9. E4 should use a 2:4 team
  10. A Gym Leader (not E4 member) may count ONE pseudotype as one of their type.
    For example: Luxray as Dark
    This rule is experimental, and will be removed August 7.
  11. Flat battles get you a gray badge.
    This message is to see if you read the rules. If you see this while joining the league, please put "PaRAgOn" somewhere in your post. Thanks!
    Open battles get you a colored badge.
    PO battles get you a green-tint badge.
  12. A pokémon is concidered legendary if it is one-of-a-kind and unbreedable, obtained only through an event, or prohibited by the Battle Train

    ============

    badge.png
    On Challenging:
  13. All Challengers need to sign up with their Usernames, In-Game Names, and Friend Codes. If they want, they can put this banner in their signature:
    Official Challenger of the Paragon League
    [*FONT="Impact"]Official Challenger of the Paragon League[/FONT*]
  14. You can challenge the leaders in any order.
  15. When a challenger wins a gym match, the leader should post the results in this thread.
  16. Leaders must accept a legitimate challenge, but have the right to deny a battle if the challenger currently has a position, is ineligible to challenge, or specifies the battle as a practice/friendly challenge.
  17. Any leader may challenge another leader.
    A leader who challenges another does not have to use their gm team.
  18. You must wait at least 1 day (24 hours) after challenging a gym before you can rechallenge.
    However, this rule does not prevent you from challenging a different gym.

    ============

    badge2.png
    On Badges:
  19. I'll keep a record of each challenger's earned badges. Challengers can put them in their signatures if they want.
  20. Anyone with a badge that they didn't earn gets a warning and has to remove the badge. Repeat offenders go on the blacklist.
  21. I give you your badge after a win. Not the Gym Leaders. Please remember that :).
    The only exception would be when I'm absent for long periods of time, in which case, the leaders should definitely be the ones awarding badges.
  22. If you and the leader both agree that the outcome should be different, due to counter-teaming, a critical miss at the end of a match, or something else, then we will award/not award based on your decision.
    If you don't agree, then just record the battle, post the video number for me to review, and i'll decide the outcome.

    ============

    report.gif
    On Reporting something:
  23. If you need to report something, notify me via PM. Don't post it here, please.

    ============

    E4.png
    On the E4:
  24. To challenge the E4, you must beat 8 leaders in either flat or open. E4 members may be challenged in any order.
  25. When battling the E4, you may only do so in the method you beat the Gym Leaders.
    In other words, if you collect only 8 gray badges, then you may only fight the E4 in flat. Similarly, if you collect only 8 colored badges, then you can only fight hem in open.
  26. If you beat an E4 member in both flat and open, you become eligible for an E4 position (see below).
  27. Gym Leaders may not be part of the Elite 4, and vice versa.
    Leaders must resign before they can hold a different position.

    ============

    Crown.png
    On the Champion:
  28. When battling the Champion, you may only do so in the method you beat the E4.
    In other words, if you beat all of the E4 on Flat, then you may only fight the Champion in flat, and likewise for open.

But wait, there's more!
Leader, E4, and Champion rules, as well as how to become one of them:
To become a leader:
  1. Join the League
  2. PM me with the following information:
    • Name
    • In-Game Name
    • Forum nickname, if you have one (like paxromana -> pax)
    • FC
    • Type
    • Gym name
    • Whether or not you have a badge prepared
    • Which types of battling you can do (flat/open)
    • Your team for flat (species only)
    • Your team for open (species only)
    • Anything you think should/shouldn't be banned
  3. Wait for confirmation
Rules specific to leaders:
  1. Gym leaders may only use one legendary in their team.
  2. Gym leaders may change their team whenever they like.
  3. If you receive 3 warnings while a Gym Leader, you will lose your gym.
    However, I highly doubt anyone in the League would get that many warnings.
  1. To be eligible:
    • Acquire 8 Badges, or 7 if you're a leader.
    • If there is no spot available:
      You must beat a E4 member in both flat AND open to acquire their spot.
    • You must be able to do both flat AND open battles. Two different teams are encouraged, but not necessary.
  2. You must PM me a request with the following:
    • Name
    • In-Game Name
    • Forum nickname, if you have one (like paxromana -> pax)
    • FC
    • Favored Type (must have at least 1 pkmn of that type)
    • Which types of battling you can do (flat/open) ***You'll have to have both***
    • Your team for flat (species, item, and ability)
    • Your team for open (species, item, and ability)
    • Anything you think should/shouldn't be banned
  3. Wait for confirmation
  4. You may not change your team, unless you SPECIFICALLY ASK ME IN DETAIL with how you want to change it, including items. I will then post that you've changed teams, and you may use your altered team.
  5. If you lose to a person in both flat and open, you are at risk of losing your position. However, if you're good enough (battle me to show me), I may keep you and deny the challenger a position..
NOTE: Any challengers for flat should have beaten all leaders in flat, and similarly for open


-------------------------
Obey the E4 Rules, as described above.
  • You must have beaten all 8 Gym Leaders and all 4 E4 members in both open and flat.
    This means that you cannot apply while holding a position, since you cannot defeat yourself.
  • You must challenge and beat the current Champion in both open and flat. If the Champion challenges you, then that battle doesn't count towards this requirement.
  • You must request to be Champion, in a PM to me styled like one to join the E4.
If you become Champion, you automatically forfeit your position as Gym leader of E4 member. If ousted from your newfound throne, you will have to apply again to become a leader.
When battling the Champion, you may only do so in the method you beat the E4. In other words, if you beat all of the E4 on Flat, then you may only fight the Champion in flat, with the opposite true for open.
-------------------------



If you believe that someone has violated any of the above rules, please PM me.


Empty for now. Please keep it that way.
Also Empty.

Welcome to the Paragon League!
Right now we don't have any leaders, but when we do feel free to battle them!

Also, remember to read the rules, as well as add this to your sig (without the asterisks):

Hey Im accepted and my Gym Kyogre and Ubers are banned but any other legendaries are allowed

What exactly did you mean by that?
Also, I've decided that any bans should be on groups of Pokémon (like azelf, mesprit, & uxie, instead of just uxie)

He may have been referring to how mew is banned here, but under Smogon's tiers, it isn't? Still, that's your decision to make as owner, unless you want to devolve power to gym leaders.

type: open? I was confused about that.
Bans: ubers(ledgendaries), and hacks lets keep it fair people!

RifleAvenger

See you starside
Lost versus Blue Porygon, however, he used GROUDON, who is in the ban list for this league. I'll take the loss, but I would like a rematch, sans groudon, asap.

EDIT: After reading that Blue can use an uber, I am leaving this league. It's hardly fair to give leaders such an advantage over challengers. Best of luck.
