Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
The PAX Pokemon League (UPDATE: HALL OF FAME!)

Good luck to everyone. If you want to find me, just follow me on Twitter!
nah, you've gotta track them down, that's half the fun.
also, you would need to get the physical badge for beating them... and I'm not sure those can be sent remotely (sadly we can't do EVERYTHING they do in pokemon...)
also bandana pics are up on the front page to show you an even easier way to find PPL Leaders.
it is worth noting, that we picked the exact same color red as enforcer shirts (so I'm told).
Hope to battle you soon
that's why you look for the armband
it's a nice bright red with half a pokeball and PPL in white on it.
I'm wearing pink, have purple hair, and a mask. I can't be that hard to spot!
I'm kind of shocked that NOBODY asked to battle me.A few people got up the courage to connect Pokewalkers with me,but I really really want to battle some people! I saw a few kids with Pokewalkers and they quickly dodged my stare and ignored me lol. I don't know whether it was because they're shy or what!
So let me tell all of you now,I'm going to be dressing up as a team rocket grunt again tomorrow.I have long brownish red hair.Some of you might have seen me. I don't bite,I'm really nice,and I'm probably more nerdy than you are.So I hope some of you that have battling teams will approach me tomorrow.It would really make my day!I love meeting people who like Pokemon! =)
Now to the topic at hand,I only saw two gym leaders and I couldn't squeeze through the crowds to get to them in time. Too bad I had to leave at 5...
I'm totally challenging all you gym leaders tomorow in the DS lounge!
My problem was that when I ended up at the handheld lounge, I had a line of 4 people deep for pretty much 4-7pm. It was awesome and I love all your guys' enthusiasm, but I'm probably not going to spend that much time there again. Please do challenge me between omegathon events and in various lines - I had a great time battling while in the Scribblenauts and Sonic Colors line.
I didn't want to challenge you on the floor just in case you were wanting to see a booth and didn't want to be annoyed or something.BUT now that you gave me the ok,prepare to battle!
On a side note, Gym Leaders who recruit players, please explain the rules a little more clearly. I fought a trainer today that was using Jirachi, a big no-no, but the previous Gym Leader that told her about the league did not tell her about the ban on Jirachi, or the 1 Legendary clause. I gave her the badge anyway, because it was not her fault. However, we must be clear about this kind of thing. I don't want a trainer to have to fight me again because his/her match was made moot by the use of a banned pokemon.
when i let people know, I usually mention that
Wait, Jirachi is a full ban? I thought it was only restricted. Whoops, possibly my fault then - I didn't say anything when I saw the Jirachi.
Besides, Jirachi goes down to a flamethrower.
People actually picked me out of the crowd and challenged me because of my previous forum post.That really made my day!
I got slaughtered,but it was fun nonetheless.It was an awesome experience!
I totally got Giovanni to crack a smile,too.
I can't wait till next year so I have time to learn about strategy and stuff and pay more attention to IV/EV stats.I wasn't interested in competitive battling but this PAX weekend changed that! Thanks for having this event!Hope to do it again next year!
Hopefully tomorrow I can actually get more badges. And if I catch FlyGuyLeader with his little Natu, I'll definitely be switching it up from my dragons. . . Your Altaria just caused me too much trouble, hahaha.
Anyway, it's still been fun, albeit confusing. At first I thought the cosplayer leaders were just cosplayers, then I found out that they were leaders, then I had to figure out if they were Elite 4 or not. Not to mention trying to see them around the Expo area and all, lol. I saw a lot of pokewalkers today, but I didn't connect/battle with any of you guys. Didn't want to just come up to your face and be like "BATTLE?!" if you were just trying to enjoy pax. :c Next year though (maybe I'll redeem myself tomorrow - I'll have the pink "flower" in my hair but I'll be wearing jeans instead of a pleated skirt) I'll just go ahead and ask. It was kind of a bummer to find out that some of the Leaders had so much stuff to do, especially with some of them ending up being Enforcers. Maybe next time we should all have 3-4 pokemon teams to shorten the battle time, and to make sure the Gym Leaders/Elite 4 won't have too many other plans during PAX to fully allow people the chance to get badges?
/long post is long
Easy for you to say. We don't all have flamethrower.
Anyway, I took a bit of a day off of battling today. First I forgot my DS, then I forgot my badges, then I changed into real clothes for the concerts. I should be back in (mostly) full force tomorrow!

I earned the Facade, Gale, Swarm, Void, Skull, and Genome badges, so these leaders probably know me. I'm ALEX - my team has Porygon-Z, Persian, and Zangoose. I love Normal-types, and I'd love to have a Normal-type gym in the PAX Pokémon League next year.
Be the very best. Like no one ever was. http://paxpokemonleague.net
Definitely looking for gym leaders for next year.
This is for everyone: PM me with your email address, or better yet e-mail me at akrotkov@gmail.com if you're interested in being a gym leader either next year or at PAX East. Please specify which, especially if both!
Damn right we will (And maybe next time I won't forget my DS on the most important day...>>;; )

Wordplay's not your strong suit. You should stick to Rocket science. *rimshot*

Next year, I'll be doing something more to emphasize a connection to Team Rocket. Perhaps my plain black shirt will spontaneously generate a nice red R, should look great with the hat.
I'm disappointed how THE LEGEND and THE DUCK did almost nothing for my team
I won't be at PAX East, however I look forward to crushing the hopes and dreams of E4 challengers at next years PAX
There will be many things coming soon.
one is the hall of fame,
the other is a big friend code swap to battle other trainers and gym leaders (when they have time)
also, sorry on the late response to this thread. I went home yesterday and just wiped out until arround noon today.
lastly: I'm in the process of making a facebook page. wish me luck
I think out of all the E4 teams I liked yours the best, (though I admit I didn't get a chance to see Giovanni's
I don't remember who the duck was XD but THE PAYNE and THE CHAMP were definitely powerhouses, even if I won because they missed me
and yeah, stall teams. TOTAL BUMMER! *coughcoughAcertaintwoE4memberscoughcough*
