[Chat Thread] I'll think of a creative name for it later...

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Moshi-moshi...? Anyone out there?

Seems that renewing ASB system went on the rocks. Or do I just fail to see the bigger picture?

[DragoKnight]

I'd be down for some ASB action, myself. Never really got into it back in the heyday.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Somebody should establish a new system from the ruins, but two or three people aren't enough. Or wait, two combatants and one Ref? 2 + 1 = 3

[Oslo]

I'm down to ref a battle if somebody wants to battle.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Well, I'm always ready. But if DragoKnight's interested, he should get a team approved first, and there are no active mods to approve one.

[Knight of Time]

I'm surprised to see you've come back, Oslo (BTW, happy birthday).

Mikachu and I seem to be the only active people who have battled in this ASB (we were in the middle of a rematch that Greyfox was reffing, but we came to an agreement to end it after he disappeared; quite frankly we were wearing down each other's Pokemon's energy surprisingly quickly, but not as fast in the health department).

One thing's for sure, if Mikachu is up for a battle, I might be up for another myself...I am so tempted to use at least one (unevolved) battler I haven't used, though with the fact that there is not much information about how the new S/M/US/UM abilities work (only one of the two Pokemon I got with one of the new abilities has its ability defined in the Stratedex), using the Pokemon whose ability has no flavor text may be risky.

But nonetheless if we are able to have another battle (I recall you reffed our first battle Oslo), I hope it goes to the end like the first one did.

[Oslo]

Hrm, the last battle I reffed was Mikachu vs. BTPoke. For the sake of spreading the love around, how about we try entirely different competitors this time? Any other takers?

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

Knight of Time and I already started, Oslo, but if you wish to have 'entirely different competitors' as well you'd have two battles to ref. If I understood correctly.

[Knight of Time]

Yeah Oslo, good luck finding two other competitors...it is possible that this battle may entice other people back into ASB though. We'll just have to wait and see if it does.

For one, I really wish Emerald_Gen3 would return so that he can resume my Safari Zone quest which has seemingly gone into limbo, and of course it would also be nice for Greyfox and/or at least one of the other ASB moderators to return.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

But who will ref me and KoT, then?
