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?

Well, time for my first go at this~
2vs2 Single
Style: Switch
DQ: 7 Days (Standard Week)
Damage Cap: 50%
Banned Moves: OHKO's
Arena: Foggy City
The setting for this "Arena" is the town centre of a small-scale city - which is currently coated in a deep, soupy fog. Various manmade obstacles litter the city square, such as railings, ramps, stairs, fountains and statues; but the very centre is essentially flat ground all the same. Small 10 story office buildings and apartments surround the square and offer dim beacons as the sporadic lit window illuminates the dense fog, and the moon overhead catches the mist eerily giving the entire city a soft glowing illumination. The fountains hold enough water to support aquatic Pokemon, and can be used for small the medium-scale water moves. More intensive moves however such as Surf or Hydro pump are unusable. (Or at least, at anywhere near full power)
Due to the thick fog, vision is nearly completely obstructed, and unless at point-blank ranges Pokemon and competitors will be unable to see eachother. Ranged attacks suffer a 60% accuracy penalty. Melee moves at point-blank range suffer no penalty.
Due to the damp, foggy conditions; Water and Electric attacks travel easily and gain a 2% boost to damage. (After all other calculations.) Conversely, Fire and Poison based attacks will struggle to not dissipate and thus suffer a 2% penalty to damage. (After all other calculations)
Every round, there is roughly a 25% chance that disgruntled inhabitants of the surrounding buildings (Whom were unaware a rather disruptive Pokemon battle was to take place in the middle of the night) may poke their heads out their windows to shout obscenities and insults, throw objects, or both. Although there's next to no chance they can score hits in this weather, the distractions of shouts and crashing objects is likely to tick off competing Pokemon and has a chance of causing the effects of Taunt or Torment on either competitor.
The Fog also acts as a Haze of sorts, and disallows Stat-Up moves of all kinds. However, Defog can be used to remove ALL fog effects for 5 rounds. EXCEPT for the civilians.
Other: Summary notes:
-Ranged Attacks have a 60% Accuracy penalty
-Water/Electric have a 2% Damage boost, Fire/Poison have a 2% Damage reduction
-25% chance per turn (Judge Post) of citizen causing disruptions that may Taunt or Torment either Pokemon
-Fog acts as a permanent Haze
-Fog can be cleared for 5 rounds (Attack Motions and etcetera) using Defog, which removes ALL penalties and boosts and essentially leaves the field neutral. EXCEPT for the civilian shouting.
I really hope the arena effects aren't too complex, I already docked them a good bit.. ^^;
Anyone willing?~

2vs2 Single
Style: Set
DQ: Six Days
Damage Cap: None
Banned Moves: OHKO's, weather
Arena: Sigil Keep
This arena appears similar to the sigil keep in Oblivion;
The first level looks like an oxygenated muscle coloured dome with small spikes surrounding a stone circle, and a central hole, of which a flaming pillar rise from the base of the tower itself.
The Second Level is Accessed by talon like stairs, and is similar to the outer ring of the previous floor, and has one energy fountian, and one health fountain (Magicka Essence and Blood Fountain respectively).
The Third level is accessed by a this muscle like ramp, and is a small muscle toned platform with the end of the flame pillar being held in place by an immovable stone. This platform is overall the smallest, and a fall from the third to the first level causes 5% damage to smaller pokemon. A small platform is held up by chains and surrounds the flame pillar here. This can be knocked down if two or more chains are dislodged.
Cieling/Roof: There is a large hole that goes to the domelike roof of the stage. Only Flying/Ghost/Other leviatating pokemon can access the roof, though the roof itself is unstable.
Other:
Flame Pillar: Deals 10% fire damage (super-effective/not very effective applies (fire types do take damage as it is mystical fire...)) to those who touch it. As heat rises, those who touch it are brought to the third level instantly.
Blood Fountain: Restores random amount of health, recharges after 5-10 rounds. (Health restored and rounds until rechrge complete determined by Ref)
Magicka Essence: Restores random amount of energy, recharges after 5-10 rounds. (Energy restored and rounds until rechrge complete determined by Ref)
Heated Room: As the entire area is heated by the flame pillar there is no water, and therefore the only water moves available are those created by the pokemon, but all damage is reduced by 2% after all caculations, and costs 3% more energy to use. Fire types benefit and automatically take 1% less damage and use 2% less energy to se fire moves.
Unstable Roof: Because of it's nature in the realm of destruction the roof has a 1% chance of collapsing. (increased if powerful ground or rock moves are used. 100% if Rock Slide used) Combatants can avoid the roof's collapsing if they are under the third level, or any set of stairs.
Mah profile!
And yes, I'm an Oblvion nut. (If the ref needs to get a better appearance reference to the arena, check uesp.net

2vs2 single
Style: Switch
DQ: A week and a half, or 10 days.
Damage Cap: 30%
Banned Moves: 8 chills/Pokemon, 5 recovery moves/Pokemon, anything that might completely destroy the stage, moves that rely on sun/moonlight
Arena: Gravity Room
A rather large room, about three Wailords could fit side by side, and stacked on top of each other. The floor, walls and ceiling are covered with tiles, and three alcoves on opposite walls provide places for the Trainers and referee.
About a sixth of the stage is covered in water, a pool, there are rocks to the opposite side, and a smallish platform in the middle. Light is artificially provided by fixtures, which cannot be broken in any way. No natural light is in this room, but it's hard to tell.
When the battle starts, the stage is at normal gravity, but after the first round, the stage is always either in x8 gravity or low gravity. Flip a coin or something.
In x8 gravity, jumping is higher and faster, flying takes 2% less energy, and levitating Pokemon spend 1% more energy to keep from smashing into the ceiling.
In low gravity, jumping is lower and slower, flying takes 2% more energy, and levitating Pokemon spend 1% more energy to keep from smashing into the floor.
The water and rocks are also affected, in x8 gravity, the water rises out of the pool and the rocks float, in low gravity, the water is like a brick wall, and the rocks are more fragile.
Other: Logic fail.

*Siiiiigh* Well since my first battle ditched on me after finally getting a ref, I suppose I'll re-issue my challenge, just a few tweaks to the map. >_< Uck.. Wonder if we're allowed to swap opponents in posted matches with an inactive opponent~
2vs2 Single
Style: Switch
DQ: 7 Days (Standard Week)
Damage Cap: 40%
Banned Moves: OHKO's, 3 Chills / 1 Recovery
Arena: Foggy City
The setting for this "Arena" is the town centre of a small-scale city - which is currently coated in a deep, soupy fog. Various manmade obstacles litter the city square, such as railings, ramps, stairs, fountains and statues; but the very centre is essentially flat ground all the same. Small 10 story office buildings and apartments surround the square and offer dim beacons as the sporadic lit window illuminates the dense fog, and the moon overhead catches the mist eerily giving the entire city a soft glowing illumination. The fountains hold enough water to support aquatic Pokemon, and can be used for small the medium-scale water moves. More intensive moves however such as Surf or Hydro pump are unusable. (Or at least, at anywhere near full power)
Due to the thick fog, vision is nearly completely obstructed, and unless at point-blank ranges Pokemon and competitors will be unable to see eachother. Ranged attacks suffer a 50% accuracy penalty. Melee moves at point-blank range suffer no penalty.
Due to the damp, foggy conditions; Water and Electric attacks travel easily and gain a 1% boost to damage. (After all other calculations.) Conversely, Fire and Poison based attacks will struggle to not dissipate and thus suffer a 1% penalty to damage. (After all other calculations)
Every round, there is roughly a 25% chance that disgruntled inhabitants of the surrounding buildings (Whom were unaware a rather disruptive Pokemon battle was to take place in the middle of the night) may poke their heads out their windows to shout obscenities and insults, throw objects, or both. Although there's next to no chance they can score hits in this weather, the distractions of shouts and crashing objects is likely to tick off competing Pokemon and has a chance of causing the effects of Taunt or Torment on either competitor.
The Fog also acts as a Haze of sorts, and disallows Stat-Up moves of all kinds. However, Defog can be used to remove ALL fog effects for 5 turns. Resident shouters however will continue, and now have a 50% chance of scoring a hit with their flung objects for between 1-5% neutral element damage. (Ghosts are an exception, and are immune to this damage - after all shoes and terracotta pots will just fly right through them)
Other: Summary notes:
- Ranged Attacks have a 50% Accuracy penalty
- Water/Electric have a 1% Damage boost, Fire/Poison have a 1% Damage reduction
- 25% chance per round of citizen causing disruptions that may Taunt or Torment either Pokemon
- Fog acts as a permanent Haze
- Fog can be cleared for 5 turns using Defog, which removes ALL penalties and boosts and essentially leaves the field neutral. Residents continue to shout however and gain a 50% chance of scoring hits with their thrown objects when they appear.
