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?

3 vs 3 vs 3 single
Deathmatch [set style]
DQ: Two weeks
Damage cap: 25%
Banned Moves: OHKOs, any moves that wouldn't make sense in an enclosed metal cube
Arena: GOD HAETS YOU >(
You're not sure how or why your Pokémon have ended up battling in an arena like this. The area of battle is a great green-grey sheet-metal cube twenty meters to a side. This wouldn't be so bad if not for the daggerlike five-foot spikes placed in a grid pattern, three feet apart, on every wall of the cube. This wouldn't be so bad - the spikes are big enough to avoid fairly easily - if not for the fact that every ten minutes [five actions] or so, perhaps oftener, the cube flips over. Perhaps someone or something is rotating the cube, perhaps gravity is shifting; either way, it's rather disorienting. Add to that two opponents at once...
Pokémon over five feet not recommended.

Sounds like a fun battle and I'd love to participate, but I'm holding off on any more for just a little longer. So... as soon as you find a third person, I shall to be of the reffing.

3vs3 single
DQ: Standard Week
DC: 35%
Restricted Moves: Chills 5/pokémon, direct recoveries 1/pokémon
Arena: The Docklands By Night
The Docklands, a shady backwater town in a shady, backwater region is a shady, shady place to be. Especially when the sun isn't out. Fortunately, battlers here will have the moonlight--or what little moonlight they'll actually be able to see over the city's electric glare, that is.
The battle takes place down at the docks, where the region's major oceangoing vessels come to load up on cargo or unload their goods to local vendors. The place is dominated by a maze of rusted storage lockers, rubbish, and, above all, the cranes.
The cranes are huge machines, standing in rows that stretch on for miles. Rusted and pitted from years of service, they are illuminated by a multitude of lights that cast orange and purplish auras through the hazy, polluted air. From a distance, the place looks like another world watched over by huge, squatting robots. Closer up, though, as in where the battlers will be fighting, the saturation of light only helps to make the shadows starker and paints the scene in a weird glow that is at once unsettling and detached.
Notes: Water pokémon are easily accommodated here, as they can swim up alongside the docks or call water attacks from there. The water is far from clean, but it's not bad enough to do them any damage over the course of only one battle. Weather moves work fine, but sunny day only serves to intensify the moonlight, which, while it will increase recovery from moonlight or morning sun and decrease solarbeam charge time, will not increase the power of fire-type attacks or decrease the power of water-type attacks. It also cannot prevent freezing like normal sun can.

2 vs. 2
Single Set
DQ time: 5 days
Damage Cap: 35%
Restricted Moves: 1 Hit KO's, Weather Moves, Direct Healing Moves
Arena: Desert
The arena is set in a desert. There is no water here, so most water Pokemon will be at a severe disadvantage. There are a few cactuses and many rocks of various sizes around the area. Fire and Ground type moves have a 15% boost. If Whirlwind, Gust, or Tailwind are used, there is a 25% chance of a sandstorm brewing, which would cause 5% of damage to all non steel, rock, or ground Pokemon.
Other: To make this simple, all Pokemon that have to be directly in water all the time (i.e., Carvanha, Remoraid, Gyarados, Magikarp) are banned, however water types that can be out of water (i.e., Golduck, Poliwhirl, Quagsire) are allowed.
If you have read and comprehended all of that, you are worthy to view my Profile of the amazing Blazking.

Single Set
DQ time: 5 days
Damage Cap: 35%
Restricted Moves: OHKOs, Healing Moves and Chills 3x per Pokemon.
Arena: Wide Open Range ... OF DOOM
This arena is fairly simple. There is a circular spring for any Water Pokemon. There is a small marshy area right around the perimeter of the spring. The rest of the field is simply a field. Until... DOOM. At the very edge of the field, a dangerous force approaches. It is Mewtwo, and it is furious from being studied and experimented on by the scientists. Once it reaches the battle site (7 rounds) it will furiously attack each Pokemon. Unless the Pokemon finds a way to avoid the attack (all attacks from Mewtwo break through Protect. It can not be Detected either.), it will cause damage equal to half of their Health. Status Modifiers don't apply. After Mewtwo has finished its destruction, the field turns into a barren wasteland, where a furious Sandstorm rages causing 5 percent damage to each Pokemon each round. Even ground-type Pokemon aren't immune to this furious storm.
;D Evil Mewtwo pwns all.
