    Ok. I got a question. How many battles are needing of refs-as in started but no one has picked them up. If I can see a list, I'll have a better idea of what can be taken. I'm gonna look at your Wolfy, as I think one of my battles may end soon..

    This battle will be needing a subref now that Cynder is on a leave of absence. It's a piddly two on two.

    You know how I know you guys are lame? Because I had to change my witty comment from "gay" to "lame" to properly explain my feelings about you two.

    Can we get a new Mock battle please? the current one hasn't been touched (also the tower was last posted in back in September) because it was lacking some key details (such as, oh, I don't know, SPECIES?!?!?!)...

    See what I mean?

    Mock Battle
    Arena: The (In)Active Volcano

    You battle upon a dormant volcano -- what happens if it bursts?

    Pre-Round stats

    Weed Whacker IVY and GRASSASSIN

    F
    @Overgrow
    82/91
    Aerial Ace ~ Leaf Blade ~ Dragon Breath
    -1 Acc

    vs

    Iceman SNOWE and FROCEAN

    M
    @Skill Link
    100/100
    Attract ~ Spike Cannon ~ Hail

    If you add some species to that, I will post a new mock up. <3

    There was a species for each of 'em, but Veekun changed the urls to the sprites, so they didn't appear as a result. Nonetheless, there's a new mock reffing, so go nuts!

    Alright, this better be the last time I do one of these damn things.

    Round XXX (Saucy)

    Arena
    The Indigo Plateau: You betcha!

    Team of Semi-Finalist Red (###)
    [Charizard][?]
    66% HP
    84% EN
    +Solar Power+
    *I'm liking this sun, Attack +2*
    Seismic Toss ~ Flamethrower ~ Dragon Rage

    Team of Semi-Finalist Blue (###)
    [Blastoise][?]
    88% HP
    60% EN
    +Rain Dish+
    *I feel disadvantaged*
    Confusion ~ Rain Dance ~ Hydro Pump

    We begin the next round with the sun shining, strengthening Charizard, whilst Blastoise looks on with slight discomfort. With a roar, Charizard flies at Blastoise and grabs it by the water cannons. With a grunt of effort, it spins Blastoise around once, twice, three times before letting go and Blastoise flies into large wall surrounding the arena. This is why you don't get front row seats.
    Blastoise gets up and shakes its head, feeling hurt. It gets back into position and its eyes begin to glow blue and a wave of rippled air heads towards Charizard.
    "OBJECTION" the ref with amazing hair cries and his Wobbuffet leaps into action, shimmering a brilliant pink and lands between the opponents, facing Blastoise. The psychic energy is reflected back to it and Blastoise grunts in pain, feeling this is not been a good round.

    : -0% health, -12% energy
    *Atk +2*

    : -20% health, -4% energy

    Charizard is still raring to go and, swooping in quick, blasts powerful fire from its mouth, boosted by the sun and by the ability it possesses.
    Charizard feels a slight pain as it completes its attack. Maybe that was too much power. Blastoise cries out over the intense power of the flames and feels a lingering pain on its chest. Ooh, that's a nasty burn Blastoise has got there. But that's not going to stop him do a little dance, making Charizard raise an eyebrow. Through the dance, Blastoise creates a large ball that rises up and unfurls into a large blue film, high in the sky. The film blots out the sun and produces rain which falls down onto the field. Blastoise grins, now its in a much better predicament.

    : -5% health, -7% energy
    *Atk +2*

    : -10% health, -10% energy
    *Brn, Atk -3*

    Charizard still goes for the first strike, continuing to hammer on the opponent. From its mouth comes flames of the lovely dark blue variety, which engulf Blastoise, causing even more pain. It goes down on one knee, then gets back up, feeling a bit better. It grins, then lowers its water cannons. Charizard sees this and swallows as a large volley of water comes blasting its way. Charizard is slammed hard by this and hits the ground with a loud thud. Charizard gets up, slowly, feeling quite batterered whereas Blastoise gets a bit of HP recovery. Lovely. Though the burn still smarts.

    : -28% health, -6% energy
    *Atk +2*

    : -15% health, -12% energy
    *Brn, Atk -3*


    Team of Semi-Finalist Red (###)
    [Charizard][?]
    33% HP
    59% EN
    +Solar Power+
    *Owwwwwwww, Attack +2*

    Team of Semi-Finalist Blue (###)
    [Blastoise][?]
    43% HP
    34% EN
    +Rain Dish+
    *Well that wasn't too bad, Burned (-10% health each round), Attack -3*

    End Notes

    1) Charizard in a world of hurt.

    2) Don't you be using illegal moves on me son!

    3) Darkly to attack first and eat the challengers.


    DISREGARD EVERYTHING!

    Not grading. 2 Questions.

    1) Why in the world do you have so many color tags?

    2) The style you implement is a sight for sore eyes. However, what happened to the Blastoise sprite?

    Not sure about the colour tags but I only see them during editing, but I can see my way around, but this is the colour I've always used, just using a few others to just making it more interesting. I like the purple as it's a nice colour for my eyes. Not good with bright ones.
    Also, fixed the Blastoise sprite and things should be fine now.

    Alright, Rossy, I've taken a look and I'm gonna hafta unfortunately deny your request to move up, for a few reasons --

    1. The damage from Hydro Pump was very high. I know there's STAB, rain, and a weakness going on, but no attack should go over 25HP damage except for very certain circumstances (like Explosion/Self Destruct from a pokemon with full health).

    2. Burn -- the effects of burn are way too high (10HP damage per round *and* -3 Attack?) -- you should lessen them greatly. Those stats make it way too broken.

    3. Refer to your PMs for the last one.

    Alrighty then, for a weakness, the damage is doubled, which I should stop doing, though I may have added up wrong and it should be around 20-22.
    Not sure where I got the burn from, as I was trying to remember what I did before about burns. I now remember it was 3% instead of 10 and the -3 Atk comes from the fairly large burn, which also makes the damage slightly lower, but would also be counteracted by Rain Dish.
    And an Egg Move from G/S? A move it cannot legitimately learn in-game anymore? That's...obscure.

    You should have made it use Zap Cannon.

    That'd be too obvious -- but it's there to keep you on your toes, Rossy.

    Seismic Toss ~ Flamethrower ~ Dragon Rage

    v.

    Blue

    Blastoise
    @Rain Dish
    88/60
    Confusion ~ Rain Dance ~ Hydro Pump

    Hello all you Pokemon fans out there and welcome back to the final battle in the pokemon leauge tournament this promises to be a hot one folks as the battlers eye each other testily, they have taken damage in previous battles but still look no worse for wear

    Charizard starts off by grabbing Blastoise and flying up as high as he can for a seismic toss [-5PP Char] but this turtle is having none of that and releases a psychic wave, forcing the fire pokemon to let go [-6pp Blast/-8Hp Char] and of course he realizes too late that he came free in midair [-7Hp Blast] the power of the sun shines brightly on Charizard allowing him to trade his health for his attack boost [-5Hp Char]

    Blast then starts a tribal dance to summon some rain [-7PP Blast] Charizard, realizing that his sun is starting to fade, attempts to stop this by heating the ground around Blastoise[-6PP Char] Blastoise finishes his dance just as the heat reaches him[-8Hp Blast/-2Atk Char/Weather-Rain] Blastoise uses his ability to absorb health from the water [+5Hp Blast]

    Decidedly mad at losing his sun Charizard directs his rage at Blastoise [-6PP Char/-5Hp Blast], using the new energy coursing through him Blastoise decides to meet him in kind with a powerful hydro-pump from the water cannons on its back which cuts straight through the dragonish rage scoring a critical hit on the fiery lizard [-10PP Blast/-20Hp Char]

    Results

    Red

    Charizard
    @Solar Power
    33/67

    Blastoise
    @Rain Dish

    Ash, you've gotta learn to be more patient with us. We can't always be here at a moment's notice -- I've already told you to stop double-posting, so now I'm giving you a warning. If you do it again, you will receive an infraction.

    As far as your mock reffing, the energy outputs are a little high for the damage output, so look into that. But for now, I'll approve you as a Rookie.

    Yay and sorry about the impatience its just I wait a day then put a reminder in case you didn't notice the new post and it stopped having the red notification the double post was because I wanted to have the note about the battle separate from the reffing post, next time I'll just put it as a separate paragraph

    FUN AT THE BEACH CONTEST!

    ‡ Pre-Round ‡



    ‡ Round 1 Appeals ‡

    Good day, ladies and gentleman, and welcome to… some beach somewhere! Huzzah! As the sun beats down upon us, a chipper crowd of beach-dwellers gather to watch three esteemed trainers Coordinators duke it out make flouncy little displays of pretty Pokemon moves. Today, we are joined by a devilishly handsome punk rocker named Oslo as well as Cynder and Firepokemon, but nobody cares about those two, amirite? Anyway, let's randomize the order for the appeals and then begin!

    Cynder and Papercut, her cheeky little Pansage, are the first to go! As his trainer gives orders, Papercut enthusiastically sprints into the water and casts out an array of shimmering leaves. The crowd murmurs in delight at the colourful display. As the leaves settle upon the surf, Papercut leaps out of the water and starts bouncing and cartwheeling across the makeshift stepping stones. What grace! What agility! However, the display takes a sudden turn as the monkey tumbles into the shallows and starts swiping desperately at the water. The crowd seems mildly startled by what looks to be a drowning monkey but, when they realize it’s all part of the show, they begin clapping. In fact, they look quite impressed!

    Firepokemon and Picketsign the Mawile will make the next appeal. Picketsign begins to rise up off the sand, levitating for all to see, which garners a few oohs and ahhs from the onlookers. Picketsign then wiggles her fingers as though casting a spell, which causes a glistening red rock to rise up out of the sand. As the crowd eagerly awaits what comes next, Picketsign floats over to some of the smaller rocks along the shore and begins affectionately wrapping them up with blades of grass. A few onlookers start scratching their heads in confusion but several others offer applause for the appeal.

    Oslo and Baseline step up to deliver the final appeal of the round. Baseline spits out a series of tiny seedlings that begin to burst and smoke, which causes the crowd to gasp and murmur in anticipation. However, here’s where everything starts to go south. Baseline tries to use her natural Agility to weave in and out of the exploding seeds, but her attempt to use an attack she can’t naturally learn causes her to fall flat on her face. As the Seed Bombs continue to go off around her, causing mild damage, Baseline pulls herself up and tries to quell the explosions with a splash of acid. The seeds stop, but the reaction causes a noxious purple gas to waft toward the crowd, who shield their faces and cough in reaction. Um. Well, that could have perhaps gone better.

    ‡ Round 1 Scores ‡

    Cynder and Papercut: The crowd thoroughly enjoyed the little show you put on! The Magical Leaf added a flashy touch while the Acrobatics allowed Papercut to show off his natural monkey-like nimbleness. You made good use of your surroundings, though you did briefly freak out the crowd with the feigned drowning. Chalk it up to Papercut for being such a good thespian, I suppose. Nonetheless, the crowd clued in after not too long, so your score wasn’t severely affected. Overall, a successful appeal. 8.5 / 10

    Firepokemon and Picketsign: You did a good job of executing your moves, but I’m not entirely sure the eco-friendly narrative was conveyed as effectively as it could have been. Some of the crowd members got what you were going for but others simply saw Picketsign hovering, excavating a rock and hog-tying stones with bits of grass—which doesn’t exactly scream “environmental activist” to me. That said, the onlookers who understood where you were going with your appeal enjoyed it quite a bit. 7.5 / 10

    Oslo and Baseline: Eek. You guys started off promisingly with the Seed Bomb, but the whole trying-to-use-Agility-when-Arbok-can’t-actually-learn-it thing really didn’t pan out for you. Also, it’s definitely in your best interests not to allow the crowd to see you get injured by your own attack, right? Acid Spray was a risky way to quell the explosions and the nasty fumes really didn’t do you any favours. You would have been better off putting out the Seed Bombs with sand, which would have allowed you to incorporate your environment into your appeal—something that Papercut and Picketsign both did effectively. Better luck next time, you handsome bastard. 3.0 / 10

    ‡ Post-Round ‡

    Hate your prettiness Oslo.lol Ok, the contest descriptions were well worded and nicely displayed. Good catch on Agility there and overall fair rating. I left the theme open to interpretation, so the possibility of low scores could be openly justified by the ref. I think...and its been a while since...but you could start at intermediate judge. Doubt there would be any contestation

    Whoo! Permission to start the next Contest? I know there's a tourney going on at the moment, but we can have both happening at once, right?

    Just so you know, you have 'Advanced Refs' and 'Experienced Refs' as the same things but with different titles in the first post. It's a little bit confusing when you're trying to match up the rewards to the level.

    Alright, I'm a ref from the third generation. Very nice.

    Now this is the time to become Master. I've been reffing way too much for 'Advanced', when I ref as much matches as those in Master, or Head.

    Let's get it on!

    Round X

    Arena
    A dense rainforest with a slight rainfall coming from the trees. At any second, it could become quite the downpour.

    Team of Not-An-Alien Hugh Mann (?)
    [Vaporeon][M]
    85% HP
    81% EN
    *Hydration*
    *Paralysed (3 more actions), Spd -3*

    [Milotic][F]
    64% HP
    75% EN
    *Rain Dish*
    *Attack -2*
    Flail ~ Psychic ~ Hypnosis

    We begin this round with the paralysis being filtered out through Vaporeon, due to her ability. This should have happened at the end of last round, but I'm guessing the little amount of rainfall slowed down the filtration slightly. Despite this, he is still slower than Milotic, who starts thrashing about, due to being so experienced in a previous evolution. However, Milotic is not in that bad a situation and the attack loss prevents her from dealing that much damage. Vaporeon rolls his eyes and sends a very muddy rush towards Milotic, impairing her vision slightly.
    : -5% health, -8% energy
    [Hydration]
    : -4% health, -9% energy
    [Atk -2, Acc -1]

    Milotic starts the next action by drawing in Psychic power to mess with Vaporeon's mind. Funnily enough, Milotic can't learn Psychic, so Wobbuffet comes in to Mirror Coat that bad boy. Vaporeon meanwhile uses Synchronize...which is an ability, so Vaporeon struggles to pass his status onto Milotic. As in, the non-existent status. You may be thinking of Synchronoise, which Vaporeon can learn, though the trainer is quite specific to use Synchronize. Oh, FYI, the rain starts becoming much heavier.
    : -0% health, -3% energy
    [N/A]
    : -8% health, -9% energy
    [Atk -2, Acc -1]

    In this final action of this 'what's wrong with this picture' round, Milotic goes all psychic again, but this time using a move she can learn! You are getting sleepy Vaporeon and he does, even with the bad accuracy of the move.
    : -0% health, -0% energy
    [Slp]
    : -0% health, -7% energy
    [Atk -2, Acc -1]

    At the end of this round, Milotic restores some HP back with her ability Rain Dish...which it can't know, so Wobbuffet goes over, slaps Milotic with a Struggle and returns her HP to normal. Vaporeon, using a legitimate ability, wakes up from his slight slumber, making him...right as rain. Aha, look I made a funny.

    You caught me on Synchronize/Synchronoise. For the longest time, I had thought the attack was Synchronize. Because I overlook things I never plan on using.

    But where did the damage come from? It's not really clear if it's from Vaporeon or from Wobbuffett...

    After Milotic uses Psychic, Wobbuffet bounces it back with Mirror Coat. I admit I should have made it clear that Vaporeon didn't attack.

    But should the move have actually been Synchronoise? In which case, I should have assumed you meant that, instead of commanding the Pokemon to use an ability.

    Synchronoise was the attack meant to be used -- so that's on me and I fixed it in the main post.

    We begin this round with the paralysis filtering out of Vaporeon via Hydration, after being delayed due to the light rainfall. Despite this, Milotic is still faster and drops on the deck and flops like a fish! SPONGEBO- *coughs*, erm, it doesn't do too much, though. Vapoeron responds by sending muddy water from nowhere crashing down.
    : -5% health, -7% energy
    [Hydration]
    : -4% health, -7% energy
    [Atk -2, Acc -1]

    Now Milotic uses a psychic power in an attempt to mess with Vaporeon's head.
    But funnily enough, Milotic just doesn't know how to do such a thing and only makes her a bit baffled. Vaporeon wonders what has his opponent in such a tizzy but nonetheless attacks with some psychic power of his own, which works in this situation, due to being the same type and all.
    : -0% health, -8% energy
    [N/A]
    : -7% health, -6% energy
    [Atk -2, Acc -1]

    It has not been a good round for Milotic and it won't be getting much better. Milotic goes for a psychic attack it CAN use and tries to make Vaporeon sleepy, firing pulses of sleepy energy (...me neither), which miss! Well, you should have tried this back in DP. Speaking of Gen IV, Vaporeon fires a muti-coloured beam at Milotic, which severely messes with her head. Looks like someone got confuzzled. How hilarious and yet that's terrible.

    At the end of this round, with the rain still slight, Milotic recovers some health using her rain di- what, the water collects on her eyebrows? I don't think so.

    So, a 45% chance of hitting Hypnosis and a 10% chance of becoming confused. I love you too RNG.

    I hope you don't mind Rossy, I loved the way your ref posting looked so I'm "borrowing" it as a template. Hope that doesn't offend you or anything :x

    Welcome back ladies and gentlemen to this colossal battle between these two graceful Water-types. The steady light rainfall seems to help refresh Vaporeon, all thanks to his Hydration ability, allowing him to limber up. Milotic, still having the speed advantage, decides to go old school on the Vaporeon and shows him how she did it back as a wee ol' Feebas...by flopping around like an epileptic, doing pitiful damage to Vaporeon, who simply raises an eyebrow (or is that an eye-fin?). Shrugging off the last pathetic attack, Vaporeon sends forth a great tidal wave of earthy water...which also proceeds to do miniscule damage to Milotic but with the added effect of blinding her temporarily!

    : -5% health, -7% energy
    [Hydration]
    : -4% health, -8% energy
    [Atk -2, Acc -1]

    Milotic begins to stare intently with great concentration at Vaporeon...with no effect happening at all! Looks like she was staring at an orange juice carton for all we know. Vaporeon, once again confused by the actions of the sensual serpetina, concentrates on his own innate psychic power and proceeds to do deal damage to his fellow Water-type

    : -0% health, -7% energy

    : -6% health, -7% energy
    [Atk -2, Acc -1]

    Milotic has been derp-ing her way this entire round so far, much to the benefit of Vaporeon. Again, she begins to stare intently into Vaporeon's eyes with a faint reddish glow. Vaporeon can't help himself from looking away and slowly the mermaid Pokemon begins to drop forward and is off to meet Kirby at his home area.

    Of course, but you should probably make your own one that you're comfortable with and to distinguish you from other refs.

    Though I am flattered.
