Can I try this?

[kakashidragon]

I was hoping if i could try this out. I wanted to start some kind a gym leader battles on here where some of us use can be gym leaders or something. I already got a dark team im making and if you beat me you get this badge im making and give you one for your profile.
I know you might not want to try it, but maybe you guys can give this a chance, you dont even have to battle me right away. You can take all the time to wait to battle me and stuff.

[The Most Awesome Jared]

Sounds like a good idea, but this is another thing that needs more members than we have available.

[kakashidragon]

I could just be the only gym leader here. I can use different teams and make new gym badges or I can get help making new badges for a certin type I use. Also if I do become the only gym leader can i have a new ranking thing saying im the gym leader in my profile?

[The Most Awesome Jared]

Don't you think that would be a little too much work for you?
Well, if you really want to do that, I guess it's your choice...


And I'm sure FW will give you that ranking thing.

[kakashidragon]

well if i got help making some badges that would be nice like I make 4 and someone else make 4.

Heres what It looks like for the darkness badge: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2533/3866151856_5ca332783f_o.jpg

I got to change the white boxs size before i hand these out to the winners of the battles

[FreezeWarp]

How would you do this, exactly? I'm not familiar with a gym leader system, so if someone could explain it to me, that'd be great.

[kakashidragon]

It will mostly be either eved trained teams i'll be using or just normal pokemon I breed and catch, and the battles are going to be like in the anime where the gym leader cant switch pokemon unless a move does, and the opponet can switch his/her pokemon.

Also what main thing do gym badges have? like do they have a outercolor around them or what background color should i use. Plus the first badge i made in a above post whats the normal size the badges go by so i dont make them too big?

If only I had Wi-Fi... :|

[kakashidragon]

well for those that dont have wifi, i can just give you badge just for the heck of it. so its fair to the others that dont have wifi.

[FreezeWarp]

So, will these be commenced via Wi-Fi, then? And, the badges should have an alpha background.

[kakashidragon]

whats a alpha background?

[FreezeWarp]

Transparent. I believe that is represented like this:

rgba(255,255,255,100)

Although the alpha could correspond to zero, not completely sure.

[kakashidragon]

can you show me what one looks like? also the battles can be over wifi so its easier to get them thru battles.

[kakashidragon]

well heres one i just finished for my darkness gym http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3535/3865584601_4ac9390659_o.jpg
I think im missing something but im not sure if this will be good enough though.

[FreezeWarp]

Here's a quick example: http://www.pokezam.com/forums/images/merrychristmas/statusicon/user_online.gif

[kakashidragon]

whats the size of that and how did you make it?

[Over 9,000 Superkowz]

HE HAZ SKILLZ, BRO! ;D

[kakashidragon]

so do you think its good? i got to find a way to make it smaller like FR did with his little green pokeball there, or at least get that color to work in Normal paint on my computer.

[FreezeWarp]

whats the size of that and how did you make it?

HE HAZ SKILLZ, BRO! ;D

It is just an icon associated with one of the styles for the Forum. I didn't make it myself, just gave it as an example.

I would rather highly recommend using either Paint.NET or The GIMP, the later of which I use for most of my graphics. Paint by itself is useless.

[kakashidragon]

well the computers we have at my house has only normal paint. If the paint.net or THE GIMP is a download i cant download stuff to the computers case my step dad says i cant download stuff.

[kakashidragon]

Hey FW can you make badges for me? I cant seem to make a good design for a badge if I dont have the right program or any idea how to make these things. Its like the only thing i can make are banners, not the kind of banners like you guys got from that Bleach Club thing, But more basic ones like the one i got in my sig., but i can still try at least.

[kakashidragon]

Ok I made this trainer card, Tell me if its good.

YU-GI-OH!!!

I think you should keep the Pokemon in the boxes.

[kakashidragon]

heres another one http://i919.photobucket.com/albums/ad38/kakashidragon/0603200943101.jpg And why should i keep the pokemon in the boxes? I want my cards to be unique. I know its a little big but i can change it later.

[Over 9,000 Superkowz]

It looks cleaner if the Pokemon aren't popping out. Just a suggestion. :|

[kakashidragon]

If and when i make a new one, I'll put the pokemon in the boxes. These are my very first ones i made without pokecharms or another websites card maker. so cut me some slack.

[Over 9,000 Superkowz]

Sorry. :|

[kakashidragon]

Opps! didnt mean to snap at yeah :( but im used at getting yelled at by akai in the past. Its a old habit that seems like it dosen't go away.

[Over 9,000 Superkowz]

Hah, I think all of us oldies got yelled at by Akai in the past. :P

[kakashidragon]

I know it sucked, she was like ahhhh.......hmmmmm not sure how to describe it.

[Over 9,000 Superkowz]

You gotta be mean enough to re-enact that, I doubt it's possible for you though. Lol. :D

[kakashidragon]

I know lol ^.^ Well g2g be on tommorrow.

[Over 9,000 Superkowz]

I was about to go too, see ya. :D

Hey. I can be a GYM leader too; the Water GYM leader.
Back in www.piforums.info (http://www.piforums.info), they have a GYM system too. How it works is that a person volunteers to be a GYM leader of a specific Pokemon type, and a Mod/Admin/whatever approves it. He starts a thread, calling it his 'GYM', with his rules, badge (optional), prize Pokemon, and other set of important things. When a person wants to battle against him, he/she posts in that thread, and they both appoint a time where they battle on Wi-fi. The GYM leader must use Pokemon of his own type; however, Pokemons that are close to that type can be accepted too. Note that 4 Pokemons must be from his own type, and the other 2 can be close to that type.

Example:
The Dragon GYM leader can also use Gyarados and Kingra in his team, as they are close to the Dragon type.
The Dark GYM leader can also use some limited numbe of Ghost Pokemons as they are close to Dark.
And so on...

If the GYM leader is defeated, the trainer who won gets the prize Pokemon. Note that the prize Pokemon must be worthy, not just a simple Pokemon. The winner and the loser must be announced in the specific GYM leader's thread.

As said, we can also add special user titles for GYM leaders. I suggest adding a whole new section for GYM leaders and tournaments. These would bring more activity.

[kakashidragon]

That would be awsome if we did this. Thats why i wanted to try this cause i bet ya this will bring more people to pokezam and/or other forums to try out battles. But for my gym i dont want to give a prized pokemon to the winner, I can give them something else like a rare item or something.

[Shadow]

You can do that too. But in the case of an item, it must be REALLY worth it; as a worthy prize brings more people.

By the way, I am making a thread of the information I posted in the previous post, and I will wait until FreezeWarp reads and approves it.

[kakashidragon]

I could clone my event MATTLE ho-oh i got from collisoum on my emerald and give that to a winner.

[The Most Awesome Jared]

Can I have it anyway?

[kakashidragon]

have what?

[The Most Awesome Jared]

Your ho-oh.




I leik birdie :3

[kakashidragon]

well if you dont want it thru battling me, i guess i can give you one. but i think i should clone some choice bands that way they get to choose the prize.
