This is related to Mine, LolopFace’s, jjtwilefc’s and NicoNicoKneez’s plan for an increased competitive aspect to the server, giving a higher final goal for experienced players beyond the gyms and occasional tournaments. As in the name, it will consist of an officially sanctioned elite four, which upon beating, the player will earn a custom rank of [Champion].
As a starting point the Elite Four members would be us four, as jjtwilefc, Dankdra and NicoNicoKneez win the tournaments regularly, and we have all built and designed this system. Elite Four replacements would naturally happen,
That was a basic summary. Here below in the subsections are the details for this plan:
How it would run
(See designs for the layout of the building)
The challenger would use a specific /warp elitefour command to warp to the victory road + official elite four (E4) building. There would be five rooms, which MUST be done sequentially, first the elite four, then the champion if there is a current one defending. Unlike the main series games, the teams will not be type specific but will run with a theme e.g. hyper-offensive, stall etc, as this would be too easy for the players we aim to see challenge this elite four. Losing to one E4 member means you have to go back to re-challenge the first member.
All the E4 teams will be as strong as we can possibly make them, as this is meant to be a very hard feature on the server. As our teams would be constant i.e. we use the same one every time, it can make it seem easy to beat. This is where a key factor comes into play:
THE CHALLENGER MUST USE THE SAME TEAM TO BEAT EVERY MEMBER OF THE ELITE FOUR, much like in the main series games EXCEPT the player can swap ONE pokemon at each level. Obviously if you have to re-start the challenge, you can swap whatever pokes you want.
Process to beat it and requirements for challengers
You would not have to beat the Elite Four all in one day. There would be a separate discord group for the champion + members where we can share your team, to maintain the constant team rule, and to notify that the next member needs to arrange a battle with you, the challenger, soon. The original E4 members are all agreed to battle a challenger within 3 days of them beating the previous member.
Obviously we don’t want to have randoms or less skilled players challenging us every day, so we have suggested these be the basic requirements to challenge:
• Won at least 10 gym badges
• If it wasn’t possible due to lack of gyms, they would need to have beaten all the active gyms, the battle tower and have a full team
• Mega Bracelet
Unlike the main series games, there is no defending champion, only the E4
Champions
The champion custom prefix is for life, no matter if others beat the E4 or if the E4 changes. Their name will also be added to the public hall of fame room at /warp EliteFour
Aside from the rank, prizes for being champion are dependable on how much Jay113355 would be happy to gift us to give out. Dknots, Rare candies, Statues are all things we would love to give out but obviously this is dependent, ultimately, on Jay113355’s opinion.
KEY – Me (Dankdra)would be the only one with commands to give out the custom prefix, as the other E4 members don’t need any commands, we’d just fight normally then record who wins, in the afore mentioned DC.
What we hope to achieve by doing this
• Add a fun, dynamic and more final goal for players old and new
• Increased competitive scene on the server
• Bring back older players to boost the server
• Fresh section of the server we all know and love
What we would need/want from Jay113355
• The official recognition of the E4, to legitimise it
• /warp EliteFour to get to the battle area
• Custom [EliteFour] and [Champion] ranks
• Prizes like dknots for champions
• Commands to help build a server area, as to make it as magnificent as we want it to be, we would prefer to spend time on quality and design rather than collecting stone ect.
We are open to suggestions and help, from all staff and players!
Further Plans and details (If interested)
Potential designs for the build
We hope to build a truly impressive structure to represent the server, and the skill of the players challenging the E4, and so we are going to use schematics. Please see the final section for more on resource collection. Here are some ideas we have so far:
• A tower with a floor per E4 member, of which they can edit to fit their own designs too, is very much the cornerstone of our ideas
• Two towers with a bridge in the middle connecting them
• Palace like the main series games one
• Mountain to ascend
• Open to suggestions!
How Champions can join the E4, and system of changing E4 members
Any new champion will be able to join the E4 (See further details) replacing
1) the E4 member who is happy to stop,
2) The most inactive of the E4 or
3) The new champion can choose who they replace.
They must decide within a week of beating the E4 if they want to replace someone. After a week they cannot just randomly decide to remove someone if they feel like it.
• If an E4 member decides to leave, or can no longer be a member, then the system is :
• 1) The most active champion rank player is asked to take the position
• 2) If there are several, it is the latest one to beat the E4
• 3) If none are highly active the invite goes to all champions to see if they would become more active
• 4) Else a highly skilled player will be chosen by the remaining E4 members.
• Further rules with replacing E4 members include: Limit of one replacement per 2 weeks, E4 cannot be replaced before they serve 3 weeks
Battling rules
• E4 have the right to refuse challengers for up to 3 days
• Any mouse/waiting glitches leads to immediate /z by challenger, then re-fight with the exact same starter poke and starting move. Failure to do this leads to immediate disqualification.
• You can re-challenge after 2 weeks
• No Ubers
• No bag items.
• See same-team rule
• Mega’s and Z-moves’ are allowed but NO DYNAMAXING
