Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.
Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.
Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Arena Description: ＴＨＥ ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ
WELCOME TO THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ. IMAGINE A HOLLOW CUBE OF LIVING BEES ABOUT THE SIZE OF HOWEVER BIG LUMIOSE CITY IS. THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ IS LINED ENTIRELY WITH SOUNDPROOF GLASS SO THAT NOBODY GETS STUNG. WE AE FIGHTING INSIDE THE GLASS CUBE, WHICH IS THE ONLY SAFE PLACE. THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ HAS A LIGHT SOURCE SOMEWHERE, BUT IT CANNOT BE SEEN. THIS MAKES THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ VERY WELL LIT INSIDE.
IF YOU NEED WATER, IT WILL APPEAR. SAME GOES FOR ANY MOVES THAT REQUIRE OUTSIDE SOURCES. IF IT IS NOT ALREADY IN THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ, IT WILL APPEAR. WHEN ANYTHING THAT HAS APPEARED IS NO LONGER NEEDED, IT DISAPPEARS.
THE GLASS INSIDE THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ CANNOT BE BROKEN. THE BEES DO NOT CARE IF YOU ATTACK THE GLASS. THEY ARE FURIOUS ANYWAY. THERE IS NO WEATHER INSIDE THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ. THERE IS NO EXIT TO THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ. HOW DID YOU EVEN GET INSIDE THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ? WHY ARE YOU INSIDE THE ＢＥＥ ＣＵＢＥ?

It's just a forest. There's the occasional bear walking around, but they don't care if you hit them with attacks. But other than that, there is nothing interesting going on.

This is... kind of a mess. How about I take it down for the time being, polish it up, and I'll repost it later.

Alright, I think that's okay enough. It's been up a while and I think I've lost interest in a cheese style battle at this point. To be honest I kind of forgot I had this open. That and it's a double, and doubles aren't all that fun for me, so maybe fix that bit when you repost it? :P

Since Arylett is taking a break from ASB, I'm setting up another ref test battle for TrueToCheese. I'll still be the mentor, so we just need another battler to get this going.
2vs2 Single
Style: Switch
DQ: One week
Damage Cap: 40%
Banned Moves: None
Terrain: ASB Central Stadium
Although designed to be a state-of-the-art battling facility and located at the very heart of ASB Central's battle district, ASB Central Stadium actually sees very little use. Most battlers prefer the infinite variety of the holodrome's simulated arenas to the basic, if impressive, stadium field, and official tournaments tend to feature tours of other regions rather than a homefield brawl. There is one advantage to the stadium, though--its proximity to the holodrome grants it access to a full range of simulation options, allowing trainers to trick out their team to whatever extent they like before battling.
There's nothing much to say about the battlefield: it's a large, rectangular arena covered in astroturf. A circular pool will open in its center if a Pokémon requiring water to move around in is sent out. In this arena, Pokémon can summon absolutely anything they need for their attacks: tidal waves, boulders, and so on are in ready supply.
Other: This battle takes place between a referee and one other member. The referee will use their own team of Pokémon, but the other battler may choose either to use their own team OR choose any six nonlegendary Pokémon with any items and abilities to use for this fight. In the former case, their Pokémon gain experience as normal. In the latter case, they may choose to apply the experience earned by their rental Pokémon, minus one point, to their team in any manner that they choose.
The prizes for this battle are $20 to the winner, $10 to the loser, and $15 to the referee. This battle does not fill a battle slot for the mentoring referee.

Format: 1vs1 single
Style: super-cool
DQ: 7 days
Damage Cap: 49%
Banned/Restricted Moves: Direct healing, Attract, Chill, Super Fang. Cute Charm and anything else that might cause infatuation have no effect. Moves that cause sleep as their primary effect are banned, and moves that cause sleep as a secondary effect have that secondary effect removed.
Arena Description: Tart Top! There's like a huge cute circular cream thing in the center with a cherry on top. If a Pokémon gets a lot of cream stuff on itself its speed is lowered by 2 stages until it gets the stuff off I guess. Why not. Stuff needed for moves like Surf and whatever magically appears for the purpose of the move and then disappears after.
Additional Rules: Music Dragon will be using Doctor Proctor the Exeggcute and I will be using Mimsy the Sentret, so we can skip sendouts.
Additional additional rules: please don't be like a gazillion times better than me :c
