TENRA CONTEST HALL
overviewThe Tenra Contest Hall is rather modest and placed in conjunction with the Gym. In order to not interrupt the simple life of the town, there is little announcement around town about the contests and a smaller number of registration slots are available. As such, only Coordinators are permitted to enter Contests in Tenra.
general rulesUnlike the other City Contest Halls, only registered Coordinators are permitted to enter contests here.
round one: appeals
- Up to 3 posts each with a word count cap of 800 words.
- In each post, a maximum of two moves may be used.
- Categories of grading (Realism, Creativity, Quality, Overall) will each have a scale of 0 - 25 to add up to a total of 100 points possible.
- Judging will happen at the very end of the appeal with all posts taken into account in a singular grade. If there are any questions about judging, questions should be taken to the staff member who did the judging or an administrator through Private Message.
- The top 2, 4, or 8 Coordinators (depending on how many participants are at the start) will move on to the Battle Round!
round two: battles
- In the Tenra Contest Hall, the battles will consist of one-on-one battles. When the participant registers, he or she must identify if he or she plans to use the same Pokémon as the appeal or identify the potentially battling Pokémon.
- Word cap of 700 words per post.
- JUDGING: Same categories as above, except instead of adding up to a total of 100, each side has a total of 100 to be subtracted from.
- Judging will happen after every round of posting, meaning the Coordinators have to wait for a mod-judge to at least post a filler before going on to the next round. If there are any questions about judging, questions should be taken to the staff member who did the judging or an administrator through Private Message.
- If either side reaches 0 points before the end of the battle, the battle is automatically over. The same goes for if one of the Pokémon faints. However, unlike in the anime, if a Pokémon faints, it doesn’t have to mean they lost if the winning Pokémon didn’t do anything appealing and just hammered down with attacks.
- For battles after the first round, the same Pokémon must be used.
