Dear fellow trainers,
It's me, Maxx, your fearless legendary leader! So, I have decided to make a forum Elite Four, so that we have more to do here! So far, the current members are:
Elite Four Maxx
Type: Ground/rock
Elite Four Red
Type: Dragon
Elite Four Green
Type: Steel
Elite Four....um, yeah, this is awkward... Well, you see, there isn't a fourth Elite Four member yet... Well, that's where you come in! We are holding open tryouts for the fourth member of the Elite Four! Anyone can join, and anyone can get in. Here are the rules:
1. You must have a least six pokemon that are lv 100 2. all six of your pokemon must be the same type 3. You cannot use a type already being used (ie we can't have two dragon-type leaders) 4. You must have beaten the pokemon league on B/W/B2/W2. 5. No legendaries allowed. period. I don't care how weak they are. 6. No hacked Pokemon. You have Pokeballs and ingenuity for a reason. 7. You cannot use any accuracy-reducing moves or items. Abilities are fine. 8. Neither is soul dew. 9. The following abilities are against the rules: wonder guard 10. The following Pokemon are against the rules: Ditto, Smeargle, Shedinja 11. The following moves are against the rules: sheer cold, fissure, horn drill, double team, confuse ray, teeter dance, frenzy plant, blast burn, hydro cannon, telekinesis, lock-on
How to apply
1. pick a type 2. pick your team 3. fill this form out:
name: (what you would like to be called) friend code: type: Pokemon: Avatar: (what trainer you want to look like. Pick it from this link
4. Battle me, Red, and Green. If you can either beat all three of us or at least take us down to two or one pokemon, you will be considered for the role.
5. Wait for me to decide whether you are in or not. I take into account your battling skills, as well as how your type matches the other guys. We want battling us to be a challenge.
There are also rules for challengers: 1. you must use the same six pokemon to battle all four of the Elite Four 2. The following abilities are against the rules: drizzle, drought, snow warning, wonder guard 3. The following Pokemon are against the rules: Ditto, Smeargle, Shedinja 4. The following moves are against the rules: sheer cold, fissure, horn drill, double team, confuse ray, teeter dance, frenzy plant, blast burn, hydro cannon, telekinesis, lock-on 5. No using Ditto or Smeargle (not that you'd want to)

I'm just wondering about you motives for some of your rules.
Why no focus sash? It is a perfect legitament item and isn't over powered. If your banning focus sash then you might as well ban sturdy too.
Why no weather abilities? Weather is fun.
Why no ditto, smeargle, or shedinja? I might see ditto with the transforming thing ruin an elite's typing but smeargle has bad stats and shedinja is easily taken down by status,sand/hail, and anything it is weak too.
Ban on confuse ray, teeter dance, frenzy plant, blast burn, hydro cannon, telekinesis, lock-on ? None of these moves are over powered.
Just wondering...

I banned focus sash? Oops, didn't mean to.
Weather abilities give an obvious advantage over others. I banned sand stream too, didn't I? You can still use weather moves, just not abilities.
Ditto is because it can become the opponent's Pokemon. focus sash smeargle can use a move like Judgement and completely destroy an opponent if EV trained properly. Shedinja can completely shut down some teams because of wonder guard.
The move bans were supposed to include hyper beam and giga impact, basically all recharge attacks. Confusion moves just piss me off, though if its a move effect I'll let it slide. telekinesis is in the evasion clause and lock on means that you always hit. It's an unfair advantage.
