The appearance of the nine survivors brought hope to the Crystal Caves. Maybe more would turn up...maybe more would return. Later, it was found that the nine were the only survivors of each of their groups, the others lost in the wilds of the new lands. Unfortunately, there return was an ominous sign...for something big was building...and worst was yet to come...

You wander through your location, searching for a Pokemon that you can capture to be your friend...your companion, to share good times with. You feel the cool, gentle breeze blow through your hair, grazing your face. You sigh, and think about what a great night it is. You gaze at the horizon...it should be daybreak soon, and the sun will rise. You wait for the warm rays of the mysterious Crystal Caves sun to rise from the depths, scattering light into the land for another day...but it never comes...

A state of emergency is called in the CC. The citizens gathered in the Town Square, in the middle of the human settlement. "Something is terribly wrong in the Crystal Caves," began Frank. "And we must find out what." Frank pointed to the a small, shimmering light in the horizon...the only light left in the Crystal Caves...

Welcome to the Solar Games. You are the group of trainers who are to find out what has happen to the life-giving sun of the Crystal Caves. You and your fellow trainers will compete in a test of wit, skill, and knowledge of the English language. The Solar Games will be held in a similar manner as the Tremor Games of last year and the Unicorn Games that are presently being held. The participants will orchestrate a battle, using their skills in English and their imaginations in each round, after which, the number of participants will be cut in half, being judged for grammatical error and writing skills.

Rules
  1. Only Pokemon captured at the Crystal Caves Capture Center or caught at Pokemon Avengers but approved at the Crystal Caves may participate.
  2. The top 50% of the participants of each round will move on to the next match. If there is an odd number, the 50% will be rounded to the nearest even amount of persons. No, we wont have small percents of people competing in this competitions, lol. Pokemon shall be awarded an amount of levels and CCPs for the quality of their writing. The better quality, the more levels and CCPs awarded. Rating of each piece will occur when all participants post their battles, or time runs out, which ever comes first.
  3. The amount of Pokemon used in this tournament shall be decided when the amount of participants are totaled. For now, sign up two Pokemon. As long as the tournament has not yet begun, you may still make changes to your team (You may not switch Pokemon, but you may use TMs and items, etc.).


Prizes
  • The winner shall recieve a Dratini, 100 CCPs, and four SMs of their choice. Also, the winner shall recieve a rare, Rainbow Feather. More details about this item shall be released at a later time.
  • Second Place shall recieve 50 CCPs as well as a Sunlight Sunflora. This Sunflora has the Drought ability, bringing out the sunlight anywhere as long as Sunflora is out. Also, the Second Place winner shall recieve 3 of the remaining SMs of his or her choice.
  • Third and Fourth Place winners shall recieve a Master Ball each, 25 CCPs each, and one of the remaining SMs of their choice.
  • All participants shall recieve a rare, one-time release only TM.
