BATTLE TEMPLE

Welcome, to the ancient Temple, in which Pokemon battles were once held as sacred events, perhaps even rituals to please the gods. In this place still float spirits; these spirits seem to gather whenever strong souls and wills clash. I am Shade, Guardian of the Battle Temple, and I challenge you. How will you fare when the spirits swirling affect your moves, your items, perhaps even your Pokemon themselves? We shall see...


Battle Temple Basic Info:
Frontier Brain: Temple Guardian Shade
Battle Type: Lv.100 Singles
Platinum FC: 2278 6198 7798
Pearl FC: 0344 5814 4216

Shoddy Username: Shadowmancer_Lord
Usual Servers: Smogon or PokemonExperte

Standard Clauses
-Uber Clause (No Ubers)
-Soul Dew Clause (No Soul Dew on Latias or Latios)
-Explosion Clause (If your last Pokemon uses Explosion, Perish Song, or any similar move and both you and your opponent's Pokemon faint, the user of Explosion loses by default)
-Sleep Clause (No two Pokemon can be put to sleep)
-Evasion Clause (No moves such as Double Team or Minimize may be used, though moves reducing accuracy such as Sand-Attack, or abilities such as Sand Veil may still be used)


Extra Clauses that can be incurred by the Spirits of the Temple:

-Field Effects Clause -The Following Moves are banned from play: Stealth Rock, Spikes, Toxic Spikes, Tailwind, Reflect, Light Screen, Barrier, Safe Guard
-Global Effects Clause -The Following Moves are banned from Play: Rain Dance, Sunny Day, Hail, Sandstorm, Gravity, Trick Room
-Status Clause - Moves whose only effect is inflicting status are banned.
-Zero Support Clause - Pokemon can only attack; Pokemon cannot use a move that doesn't cause direct damage
-Healing Clause - Pokemon may not use any move that heals themselves or the party; items are still allowed.
-Half Battle Clause -You may only use a 3 Pokemon team, rather than 6.
-Boost Clause -Pokemon may not use a move that directly increases your stats. Side effects are excluded.
-Healing Item Clause -Pokemon are not allowed to hold Healing items
-Torment Clause – No Pokemon can use the same move two turns in a row. If the pokemon hurts itself through confusion, is asleep, paralyzed or frozen in what would be the second turn, they can use the move again the turn after.
-Easygoing Clause – Items that increase the damage of moves (i.e. Life Orb, Choice Band) cannot be used.
-Morale Clause – You are to use six Pokemon; however, whoever loses four Pokemon first loses the match.
-Stable Ground Clause – The moves Earthquake, Fissure, Dig, and Magnitude cannot be used.
-Sticky Feet Clause – Switching, except by physically changing Pokemon (i.e Roar, Whirlwind, Baton Pass, U-turn) is forbidden.
-Enigma Clause – How strange. It seems the spirits have ignored you. You receive no ill effects.

In this facility, each match is overseen not only by me but by the Battle Spirits. These mischievous Spirits like to interfere; in fact, they will change things around in our battles. An RNG will be used to determine which of these clauses you receive; then a coinflip will decide whether or not you receive a second clause. If you do receive a second clause and it ends up on the same one? You go free and only have to deal with that one clause.
Clauses apply to both players; this means I must follow them as well as you. If I break a clause, this is an automatic win for you and the match will immediately end. However, you will receive no BP for such a win.
However, if you are a clause-breaker, you forfeit the match on the spot, and will have to wait another week for the rematch, at which time your clauses will be recalculated. This will also add the chance for you to receive a third clause, through the decision of another coinflip, one time only.

If I am not on here, feel free to contact me via AIM or Skype; both of those usernames are on my profile. I may well forget that I have challengers, because I'm absentminded sometimes.

Prizes:

-Reverence Symbol
-TBA

Challenge Application: Use this format when placing a request to battle in the Battle Temple.
A note: I have not yet finished Platinum, so I am not taking challenges through WiFi until I have done so; therefore all challenges will be taken through Shoddy Battle for the moment. I will be available after 4:30 EST on weekdays, as that's when I get home from college; or I will be on MOST weekends. Not all, but most.
