    Welcome to the Pokémon Battlegrounds, a place where weird-typed Pokémon battle each other for the right of calling themselves the best type combination ever!

    This is is a Free-for-All game (outside communication allowed) where every player has the goal of beating all other players by reducing their HP to 0. The game uses a simplified battle system, where players simply choose a target an a type to attack with, and damage will be defined solely by Type Effectiveness and possible items (nothing else).

    Note: There are several differences from the previous version. For starters, this won't be duel-based anymore, but a true battle royale where players can freely choose who they will attack. Also, there's a major twist to this game: each player will have not one or two types, but THREE! Yes, three for maximum madness.

    How the game works:
    Goal:
    Eliminate all other players by reducing their HP to 0.

    Turn 0:
    -Each player receives a PM with instructions to choose their defensive types and items. All players will have 3 types and up to 5 items.
    -Players will also receive 3 Potions regardless of the items chosen on the step above.
    -Players begin with 80 HP. This value is not capped, which means a player can have more than 80 HP if they are increased by an item's effect.

    Turn 1:
    -Players will be given a list of 3 types they can use to attack during this turn. Normal-type attack is also available on every turn as a default option.
    -They must then tell the host which of those types they will use and on which player. Players cannot attack the same person twice in a row.
    -They can also choose to use one of their items. Only 1 item can be used for turn, and their are consumed after that. Items used will be revealed publicly.
    -Once the deadline is met, the attacks are executed. Players will damage their targets with 8 HP x Type Effectiveness x Item effects.
    -Players that lose all of their HP will be fainted, have their types revealed and removed from the game. If there are 2 or more players still alive, a new turn begins.

    Example:
    Player Mario's types are Fire, Grass and Flying.
    Player Luigi's types are Dragon, Normal and Dark.
    Player Peach's types are Fairy, Psychic and Ice.
    Player Toad's types are Bug, Ground and Grass.
    All players begin with 60 HP.

    Turn 1:
    Mario can choose the following types to attack: Water, Rock or Ghost.
    Luigi can choose the following types to attack: Fighting, Steel or Ground.
    Peach can choose the following types to attack: Flying, Ice or Dragon.
    Toad can choose the following types to attack: Bug, Electric or Water.

    Mario decides to attack Toad with Rock type.
    Luigi decides to attack Peach with Ground type.
    Peach decides to attack Toad with Ice type.
    Toad decides to attack Luigi with Electric type.

    Once the deadline is met:
    Mario deals 8 HP (1x) damage to Toad.
    Luigi deals 8 HP (1x) damage to Peach.
    Peach deals 32 HP (4x) damage to Toad.
    Toad deals 4 HP (0.5x) damage to Luigi.

    End of Turn 1:
    Mario: 60 HP
    Luigi: 56 HP
    Peach: 52 HP
    Toad: 20 HP

    Item List:
    X-Defense: Damage you take on this turn will be halved.
    X-Attack: Damage you deal on this turn will be doubled.
    X-Speed: You can attack different 2 players this turn (the attack's type will be the same for both targets).
    Dire Hit: Damage you deal on this the turn will be tripled, but damage you take will be doubled.
    Shell Bell: You restore HP equal to half of the damage you deal on this turn.
    Rocky Helmet: Players that attack you will receive damage equal to 1/4 of the damaged dealt.
    Bright Powder: You can choose up to 2 types. During this turn, any attack against you with those types will have its damage reduced to 0.
    Scope Lens: Choose up to 2 different players. Then choose a number between 1 and 3 for each of them to find one of their types.
    Potion: You can choose 1 player (except yourself) to restore 20 HP. This item can be used on the same turn as any other item.

    Important Information:
    -Players' type and the attacks used are not revealed (except when a player faints, in which case their type will be revealed to all players), only the damage dealt and items in effect.
    -If you forget some information like your type or items you still have, you can PM me asking for your updated data.
    -Normal-type attack will always be available together with your other attack types.
    -There are no STAB or any stats that can modify the damage. Damage is solely defined by Type Effectiveness + Item effects.
    -Type effectiveness is based on Generation 6.
    -When necessary, numbers will always be rounded up.
    -Although there are no teams, players are free (and encouraged) to work with other players. If you wish so, you can even blackmail other players into helping you if you hold important information on them.
    -Trading items is possible. To trade items, send me a PM saying "I will give item X to player Y" or "I will give item X to player Y if they give me item Z".
    -To reduce the number of PMs necessary for this game, each player will be given a numbered chart with the types they can use to attack. You are free to send me your actions by the method you are more comfortable with (PM, VM, on this thread, etc). You can even post your actions publicly, but be careful with the information you disclose when doing so.

    Rules:
    -If a player doesn't reply with their attack PM until the deadline (96 hours), they will not attack anyone, but can still be attacked.
    -You cannot attack the same player two turns in a row, unless no other possible target remain (examples: Only 2 players still alive, or the turn after a player uses X-Speed with only 3 players alive).
    -If all remaining players faint at the same turn, the winner will be defined by stats gathered during the course of the game, on this order: Total damage dealt, Players fainted (Player attacked target on the turn they fainted), Number of items remaining, damage received (less = better), number of times it was attacked (more = better). Indirect damage from Rocky Helmet will not count toward those stats.
    -If you are not playing, please don't post in this thread. If you are playing but fainted, you are allowed one last post as long as that doesn't reveal or hints to any game information not made public by the host.
    -Outside communication is allowed. Feel free to discuss the game anywhere, but please don't give information or hints to players alive if you already fainted.
    -Those rules may be changed if I deem necessary. You will be alerted if any important change is made.

    Did I say signups would last for 3 days? I obviously meant 4!
    Will begin the game tomorrow, hopefully before the World Cup match begins.

    All startup PMs received, game can now begin :D
    I will be sending some confirmation PMs now. You can reply with your actions as soon as you receive them. PMs sent.

    To choose your actions, refer to the list below for which types you can use. Match those numbers with the ones in the chart you receive in your confirmation PM. You can use those 3 types or Normal-type to attack. To send your attack, send me something like this:
    [Type] can be either the actual type's name or the number you received.
    [Player] can be any other player in the game, except the one you attacked on the last turn.
    You can send that however you want: PM, VM, even on this thread if you don't mind having your plans disclosed.

    Turn 1 Attacks:
    ajhockeystar can attack with types 64, 4 or 61!
    Duster can attack with types 61, 56 or 28!
    Epikhairz can attack with types 96, 65 or 88!
    Fiery Espeon can attack with types 46, 73 or 35!
    IronStorm can attack with types 23, 39 or 6!
    Marina can attack with types 7, 47 or 84!
    MewtwoHidden can attack with types 52, 86 or 59!
    Nitrogen can attack with types 71, 69 or 32!
    NotMafia can attack with types 24, 55 or 26!
    Ortheore can attack with types 44, 74 or 9!
    RedJoker25 can attack with types 57, 84 or 34!
    The Dude can attack with types 21, 53 or 22!
    tobyfant can attack with types 27, 17 or 70!
    Trace Of Life can attack with types 14, 35 or 88!
    VirajVora can attack with types 67, 1 or 23!
    Yagura can attack with types 60, 100 or 23!
    ZZZX can attack with types 56, 37 or 60!

    Turn 1 ends July 15 (Tuesday), around 19:00 (GMT). Players that do not send attacks will not attack anyone, but still can be targeted.
    I will be working with 4-days deadlines for now, which may be changed as the players are being defeated of if you guys think it could use a different deadline.

    Well, it seems my attack ended up being eaten by the monster that lives in the internet, as it should have been sent. My bad, nothing to be done it seems.

    I want to suggest something to @IceKirby and need supports from others...
    I think giving 96 hours for 1 turn is too much...
    I suggest 72 hours are enough...
    Others can please tell that will 72 hours are enough or not ?

    Nitrogen hurt by 2 people (has 56 HP)...

    If more people think 72 hours is enough, I will gladly change it. Just let me know :3
    (although a few players only sent me their actions for Turn 1 on the last day :x)
