Welcome to the Rainbow League, where a new type of challenge awaits!
The Rainbow League Challenge
The Rainbow League will consist of several gym leaders and eventually, a champion. Your goal is win
seven badges by defeating gym leaders. When you have acquired seven badges you will be crowned champion. If there is already a champion, you must battle each other for the champion title. If you lose as champion or you are defeated by the champion, you must re-collect seven badges before challenging again. Once you become champion you will be recorded into the Rainbow League's Hall of Fame and retain your position until you are defeated.
Rainbow League Rules
~The battle format is decided by the gym leader.
~Gym leaders may set the amount of legendary/mythical Pokemon each trainer can use in their gym.
~Gym leaders must use at least 5 Pokemon of their specialized type. They are, however, allowed to use a wild card (a Pokemon not of their type). This can literally be any other Pokemon and is not required to know a move of the gym leader’s type. Note: Arceus is considered a Normal Type, regardless of the plate it is holding.
~Pokemon must have legitimate moves, stats, abilities and shinyness i.e. battle legitimate (no wonderguard spiritomb)
~The Champion is not restricted to any type, and may also choose their preferred format.
~The Challenger must leave a message on this thread every time they start a new challenge.
~Species clause: Trainers may not use more than one Pokemon of the same number in the National Pokedex (i.e. you may not use Rotom-M and Rotom-H in the same team).
~Gym leaders are free to switch to any available types when they want. They must, however, make this public in a message on the Rainbow League thread and continue to battle with their current type until their new team is ready.
~Gym leaders may come to an agreement on format and legendary limit to battle under neutral rules in attempts to simultaneously battle for the other’s badge.
~All battles should be arranged through the Battle Central. Both gym leaders and challengers should try to arrange a time that suits them both for battling.
~It is up to the challenger to notify me if they have earned a badger by leaving a message on this thread. Badges earned will be noted on the Challenge Sheet which is linked below and will be marked by the date you won that badge (American style dating: Month/Day/Year)
Note: Rules and procedures are subject to change.
