Oh sorry. I'm fine with Will.

Just want to know, where exactly do I find the boxes for clauses to check and uncheck?

When you double-click on somebody's name to issue a challenge, or when somebody else has already done that to you and you receive the challenge, a box will pop up with all the clauses.

BTW, on the main P-O menu once you've logged in, up on top there is a drop-down menu tab which says "Options." Click on that and make sure that where it says "Show team" there is no checkmark. If you have a checkmark, uncheck it. "Show team" allows anybody to double-click on your name and see your team.

Ooh, Karen. Awesome quotes ahoy.

Thanks. One more noob question: Was the OP post ever posted, or am I being delusional? That happens a lot. If it was posted, would you kindly point me in the right direction?

Edit: I'm translating OP as overpowered, but I think in this case it's opening, correct?

[Talon87]

OP means "opening," yes. At lunch right now, so can't edit in your list atm.

[Lady Kuno]

What server do we get on? I'm new at this.

Ps. Talon want to do our battle when you get on? ^_____^

[Talon87]

I explain it in the Matches section. :p The top-most server, the one which says "Pokemon Online."

And yes, but I need to make my team first. Still thinking about that moves rule, too, and how it might choke the inexperienced battlers.

[Princess Ana]

>Got Green

FUCK YEAH!! This is going to be awesome! My team will be destroy you all. And it all revolves around Pidgeot.

[Lady Kuno]

What moves rule?

[Lady Kuno]

Wait you said only 1 of each mon, but I thought Lance could have 3 Dragonites. Special rule just for me? =D

[Concept]

My team is up and ready (as I cba to make backup members), so whenever people feel like going just bug me.

[Talon87]

The "can we change our moves between battles?" question you asked and the "No =\" I replied with. On the one hand, I do not (DO NOT) want counter-teaming, but on the other hand I don't Yuki or Concept to feel like they have to get their twenty-four moves right the first time OR ELSE! So ... decisions. I may just have to judge on a case-by-case basis, but that's likely to be very unpopular with the people I turn down. So ... yeah.

Screw it. Keep the moves or you'll have someone with thunder on their entire team to fight wallace, etc.

Also I have no idea how to set like, challenge cup or item clause rules etc. Where are those settings at?

Ps Talon lets fighto.

I'm cool with it as is, even if all my moves turn out to be pants (as my now 1-3 battle record indicates they might be :p).

You are allowed to have three Dragonites. They can have the same or different moves from one another. Same with IVs and EVs.

What you asked earlier (and I said No to) was, "Can I have different Charizards in my box? And only use one at a time in fights but be able to rotate them between fights?" And to that I said, "No." Lance only owns one Charizard, so you may only build one Charizard. Use him or don't use him, it's up to you, but once you decide that he's going to be a (say) 252 Def/252 SpDef ToxicStall Charizard, then that's what he is. And if people report that you've started using a Bellyzard with Body Slam and Slash and 252 Att, then I'mma have to pull you aside. THAT'S what I was saying.

But yes, you are in an (arguably) huge position of power. You can choose to use your Dragonite version A, your version B, your version C, or even all three in any given fight. Beware the ice, though, Dragon Master!

[Lady Kuno]

Ah ok. I got you. Ps I also want to fight Talon first so he can help me set up everything. I have my team but no idea where these options are at and how to battle etc.

[Talon87]

Do a test battle with a make-believe team of two (e.g. Alakazam and Mamoswine) to test that out. I'd love to help, but ... Chinese restaurant.

[Lady Kuno]

Can I (or someone) make a UPN room to chillax in? Too many idiots in main one and I don't know the others.

[Concept]

Re: The items rule: If I have a reserve pokemon with the same item as one of the first six, but never use these two together (so never have more than one of any item on the team of six in any one battle), is this allowed?

[Talon87]

To the best of my knowledge, no. P-O doesn't even sport a Buddy List feature. =\ But it's the best free online competitive battler I've ever seen, that's for sure. Maybe make a chat room on AIM?

Will head home in the 20 or so.

Absolutely. Item clause refers to the instances of items on the Active Battle Roster, not to your boxed Pokémon too. So long as you only have one [item] out on a team of six at a time, you're good.

[Lady Kuno]

Well there are a bunch of random chat rooms. Was wondering if anyone could make there own.

I still don't know where to do item settings, challenge cup settings, etc etc.

[Talon87]

Kuno, I PM'd the person named "Kuno" twice but got no response, and then they disconnected a few minutes later. Was that you? Or was that somebody else? I looked for other aliases you might have used (like Holy Emperor) but Kuno was the only one I found.

[Lonely Cubone]

Elsie 5-0 Concept.

And that one was a Weavile I forgot to put any moves on.

It's a shame it was a friendly run really!

[Talon87]

If you guys want to hang out with us, the channel is UPN. (If the channel ever dies because we all leave and you're back on, be the one to create it by simply saying "UPN" in the field that says "Join: __________" in the channels list.) Kuno and I are there right now. On the top left, you should see three tabs, kinda obscured, that say "Players", "Battles", and "Channels". Click on Channels. Scroll down for UPN. That's how you do it. It'll then open as a tab on your main window screen. (You've got to click on the tab manually to switch to the channel proper.)
