The New Pokemon League

Gym Applications: OPEN

[thenewpokemonleague]

Do we have to be over 16 to be a challenger, or is that unrestricted?

Challenger age is unrestricted.

[thenewpokemonleague]

We are starting our dry run!

We are doing a testing phase with our old server, if you wish to be part of this beta test there is an active link to the server at the bottom of the post that we will use while the new server is under construction! The link! https://discord.gg/MksW7wp

Do you have a link for the discord?

Here’s a link to the public (and currently dead) server.

Is it possible to reserve a gym typing-- bc i havent finished building my team (bc im replaying gen4 to get specific pokemon)

Send in an app, we probably won't be starting for a week or two yet. We also have people in the server who can modify/gen legal Pokémon.~Bonsai~

How long does it take for you guys to review applications? (*･ω･)ﾉ

Sorry, we haven’t responded to the applicants because we’ve been really busy with work and other things today.  We should have them reviewed within the next few days I’d say? I believe myself and Bonsai are looking at them tonight but Professor Aspen is streaming so she won’t be able to tonight I don’t think.

So I’m sorry!! I’ll respond to the applicants right now saying we’re going to review them :) I apologize for any inconvenience!

What is the public discord server called for this League so we could look at the guidelines? c:

It’s a bit empty ATM but here is the invite! https://discord.gg/J5Wacy

Is psychic still available? :^)

Yup

[thenewpokemonleague]

is that list public somewhere? ;w;

It’s in the public discord server as both challengers and gym leaders must follow it.

~Bonsai~

[thenewpokemonleague]

is there any restrictions on pokemon you can have on your team as a gym leader? as in legendary / mythical

One legend per team and there is a list of restricted Pokémon put together by current and past gym leaders.~Bonsai~

[thenewpokemonleague]

To be a gym leader, are you allowed a team of 6 Pokemon?

Yep

~Bonsai~

[thenewpokemonleague]

So how exactly does The New Pokemon League work? Is it a roleplay or ingame sort of thing? Or is it both? How will the battles be done? Sorry for all the questions! I just find this idea interesting!

In game battles, the challengers add the friend codes of the gym leaders, E4 and champion and then battle. As they defeat the gym leaders/E4 they rank up to battle the next rank up. Also we don’t mind questions…

What does previous mod experience mean?

This means, do you have mod experience on discord, tumblr, other websites, etc! Basically anywhere where you have/had a leadership role.

-Professor Cherry

[thenewpokemonleague]

We are currently missing several roles and will be accepting applications for them, there are a couple additional types to this list, we will edit once we have confirmation that they are available. 

The roles that are definitely available are:

Professor (May bring in multiple) 

Gym leaders:

Bug

Ground

Flying

Psychic

Dark

Ghost

Poison

Normal

To apply please include the information below through the submissions box, we will contact you for an interview.

Please state your name/alias, age, timezone, and preferred pronouns. What is your main blog/giveaway blog (messages must be enabled)? If you have a giveaway blog please add how long you’ve been doing giveaways and how many times a week.

How long have you been battling for? (competitive or otherwise!) 

What would your weekly schedule be like? Which days are good for you to have battles?

Tell us about yourself! Hobbies, games, shows, what you like about Pokemon, what your favorite types are, etc. Tell us why you feel like you'd be a good fit for the League 

What role do you want? What is your preferred Gym type? 

Do you have previous mod experience (if applicable), and what is your Discord? (You will need a Discord account to apply) 

Please do not apply if you are below 16 (unless you know a member of the league then we can talk), the purpose of the age limit is to prevent people from signing up for something they are not ready for and maturity reasons.

[thenewpokemonleague]

I’m gonna do up a post right now with a list. Stay tuned.
