That hurts, DL
You deserve it fucker.
Why? Oh why?
Because Europe sucks and needs all its shitty little turd-shaped countries (I'm looking at you, Sweden.) have to combine into one Commonwealth just to be on-par with AMERICA FUCK YEAH
'Mericaaa
Lol, America is ridiculous.
Your mom is ridiculous.
I'm not even gonna decently reply to that
I don't see why we have to wait for the game to come out in the USA before we implement it here. We have members from all around the world, so we should implement the game when it was released.
If your going to use the logic that you were waiting for it to be released in the 'English speaking world', then that would be when it is released in Europe in 4 days...
America is not now, nor has it ever been, the capital of the world.

1) So...it should have been released when it came out in Japan? When we still didn't have a great enough grasp of information about it? Yeah, imagine our issue Stall x 45. Don't like really running a broken game now, and really wouldn't like running it with that much error.
The game is out in 4 days in the English Eastern Hemisphere-and we STILL don't have all concurrent information. I'm pretty sure you can wait til the 6th.
2) Yeah we do, and we did when ASB started, and we did when GSC came out, and we did when RSE came out, and we did when DPP came out. Your point being?
3) Nope. Not using that logic. As I said before, in America. Not Europe. Not Japan. Not Darwin. America.
4) Pretty sure Australia has never been the capital of the world either, but we have much bigger guns, lol.
And I'm not even gonna start on Europe and its claim to fame as it tried but failed a shitton of times from Norwegian/Greek history to current events. 7 days isn't killing anyone.

Damn, Darkly beat me to it...
Ah well. Still gonna bite.
Say that again, twerp.
I'm not patriotic by any stretch. Your patch of dirt, rock, and water and my patch of dirt, rock, and water are fundamentally no different. But when you have the most cash and the biggest arsenal of fuck-up-everybody-else-on-the-planet-ery, yeah, you run the world. It's been that way since Mesopotamia, Rome, and Britain, and that's how it's gonna stay. Unless Australia beats us to the punch and gets an orbital bombardment system up in less than 20 or so years.

In the past we waited for a game to be released in Europe before introducing it to ASB, because Europe was the last place to get it. If the US is the last place to get it, then we should wait till then. It's only a few days more anyway.
Australia and South Korea aren't important enough (according the Bulbapedia, SK wont get the games until April)
I think you guys are over looking a major key factor are ASB has been said to take place in the Lake District which is in the UK thus we should always stick with the Europe release date...

Actually, Charles, the ASB world is completely fictional, and therefore in no specific place. Just because Chris set it in Europe in his story doesn't make it true for the forum.

Yeah. Dumbass.
uhh can we get a new newsletta up in dis joint? yo?
When there's news worth announcing, I imagine there'll be an update.
Question...
What is the current price to change an ability on a pokemon?

I THINK it's 15 points.
State of the ASB Address
Wow, been a while since there's been News. Actually, there's not too much to cover, just a bit of a overview to help out some of our newer folks.
Reffing
Well, with the reintroduction of some older members, and the influx of new and motivated talent, ASB has seen a surge in activity. We hope this trend continues throughout the upcoming summer-but we need not get ahead of ourselves. This is still May-rainy as it may be on the Eastern Coast.
I wanted to personally thank everyone for reffing as much as they have, it seems the flow of battles has been evenly matched with passionate refs.
Events
Well, if you came into ASB between the last Newsletter and today, and you haven't already claimed them-each new member receives two points upon starting out. You can link to this Newsletter as proof of statement.
Secondly, there will be a contest in June, as well as a Tournament. Details are soon to follow. Despite this announcement, if anyone wishes to start an contest-please feel free to do so (assuming of course, you took the Contest Mock Reffing...)
Gyms
The Gym Battles are heating up! We may even have a challenge for the E4 soon. If you have noted in the Tower of the Ascended, the requirements has changed slightly to approach them-the most notable is that you need 4 Gym Badges total.
4. That's not so bad, having a little bit of leeway with whom you fight. You also get the prospect of obtaining a TM. Yes folks, we have introduced Move Tutors. If you take the time to look over each Gym's outline, you can read over what moves are available from each Gym Leader.
As such, which ever Pokemon on your team that participates in the Gym Battle has the chance to learn this move. Only 1 Pokemon may learn it, and this must be clearly posted in your VS seeker so it's not seen as a complete botched move on your part. A committee will also review if said Pokemon can feasibly learn it (We understand some moves may not be compatible with some Pokemon at all, like Synthesis on Mightyena....). So take the time to read over the ToTA and see what "new" moves you may want one of your party members to know.
As extra incentive to the GYM LEADERS-I'm going to add a nice little stipulation. From now until the End of Summer-each time you successfully defend your Gym from a challenger, you get the chance to upgrade one of your Pokemon's Abilities, if you haven't already. This way, it won't be easy, but it won't be hard either.
Now, this is all great news, but I think the Elite 4 need some action. So, I propose that the Elite 4 get to work finishing up their Teams and Move Tutors so people can get an idea of what they're up against!
Point Adjustment
Now. Point adjustment. There's been a little breakdown in how matches are attributed points. Single Matches are fine and dandy, but Tag Team and Melees always came with a nice standard confusion about them. So we took the time to fix this up.
Here are the new point totals for Tag Matches.
For a Tag Team where it is Two trainers:
2 per team: Winner 4 pts; Loser 2 pts, Ref 4 x 1.5 = 6 pts.
3 per team: Winner 6 pts; Loser 3 pts; Ref 6 x 1.5 = 9 pts.
4 per team: Winner 8 pts; Loser 4 pts; Ref 8 x 1.5 = 12 pts.
5 per team: Winner 10 pts; Loser 5 pts; Ref 10 x 1.5 = 15 pts.
6 per team: Winner 12 pts; Loser 6 pts; Ref 12 x 1.5 = 18 pts.
This raises the point total for all involved and hopefully gives incentive to refs for taking on these more complex matches.
For a Tag Team where it is 4 Trainers in the match, cut the earnings in half for each winner and loser.
Misc
As for this section, I'm going to keep it open to questions and quirks I've been noting. Only see one this far.
1) From Ayeun: How much is it currently to change a Pokemon's Ability?
Well: Currently, there is no way to do so, as Tokens are off the market for the time being. When they do come back, you can bet they will still be the same price.
Unless of course, something occurs where Abilities become ridiculously easier to obtain...like winning 200 coins in the casino...or reffing two contests in a row... or defending a Gym...*whistle*
2) A new quirk for B/W. Sleep Talk is NOT a TM anymore. Therefore, since that can horribly harm a B/W exclusive Pokemon, we've decided that all B/W Pokemon know Sleep Talk instinctively. (I've seen it happen and its pretty damn lame...)
If by some change a Move Tutor list comes out with Sleep Talk being able to be learned by them all, this clause will then be removed!

Since I'm awake now..
Firsts off, big up to all the refs who've been getting everything done. This really gives ASB the boost it needs.
Next, the Ref of this Season is Oslo! Glad to have you back man, and glad to have you back reffing, I like your style. You receive three points and a free catch/evolution.
Member of the Season is none other than Cynder! Your a great addition to our ASB, you've been an active member with a good input and you're a spriter too! Fanart can use it, and so can ASB. You do banners too? Anyway, you receive three points and a freebie as well. Go nuts!
Furthermore, I'm gonna set a deadline for all Elite Four-teams, arena's and TM's. Everyone should have their stuff ready by June 1st. You can use a new post in ToTA or just edit in and old one. And yes I do realise I'm the only E4 member who hasn't done any of that This is just a deadline so we can show the community who we are and what we're working with. Team alterations will possible in the future on specific dates; as I know some of you are waiting for your Safari Trips to end, so don't worry.
Come on ASB battlers, go get yur badges!
Also, Snore and Sleep Talk go hand in hand for now.
