A game played via simulator ([link]), where you'll have to build your Pokémon army to conquer other kingdoms. Every kingdom begins with eight Pokémon of one type, eventually building their army with more powerful and different typed Pokémon.​


Signing Up and Getting Ready




  • In order to join, please post a reply stating you wish to do so and your primary Pokémon type. The types are not restricted; multiple members can sign up with the same primary type.
  • After signing up, at any time before the game begins, you must PM me (Keeper of Night) a list of 8 Pokémon of your chosen type using the format below. Any players who have not sent in a list by game start will be removed from the game.
  • At any time before the game begins, you may change your type (in-thread), so long as you haven't already sent in your list of Pokémon.

Phases and Gameplay




The game will consist of three phases, Day, Night, and Event. Day phases are when wars take place, whereas trades happen during the Night. Events can happen (publicly or in private for specific players) during the day, at night, or in separate phases in which players may choose to participate themselves. Details are given when each Event starts.

  • Day phases last a week, or until all matches are completed.
  • Night phases last three days.
  • Events last until it's selected phase is over. Event phases last until they are completed.

  • During day phases you may:
    • Challenge other Kingdoms to battle (once a day).
    • Each challengemust follow the regulations set by the day update.
    • Challenge another kingdom by posting in bold: I, >name<, declare war upon >kingdom<.
    • Accept or rebuke your challenge. Denying challenges comes at the loss of 2 areas of land (-2 score).
    • Negotiate with other Kingdoms as long as you keep me informed. If deals are made, the trade may not be completed until the following night phase.
  • During night phases you may:
    • Trade Pokémon or items in public (in-thread) or private (private message). Items and Pokémon can be traded or sold, with no set guide for doing so. One-for-one does not always apply here. Make sure to inform me when trading in private.
    • Compete in private events, conducted via PM.
  • During event phases you may:
    • Choose to participate or to skip an event. It is not necessary to compete in every event, nor is there a penalty for not participating. However, there will be bonuses to those who win said events.

  • Pokémon that have your primary type in any of their evolutionary stages or forms may be chosen. This includes Mega Pokémon as well. (The ability Protean does not count as a type in their line or a form change, and as such, does not apply.)
  • Take note that natures and abilities are not changeable through normal circumstances. I will keep a record of all Pokémon to ensure they don't change without permission.
  • Abilities and moves that increase evasion are allowed.
  • Moves, EVs, and IVs are interchangeable at any time, and do not require permission. Only restriction here being that all moves must be chosen out of each Pokémon’s Level-Up and Egg moves, unless you have access to a TM or tutor move.
  • TMs, HMs, and tutor moves are not allowed until there are tutors moves available and when TMs are for sale. After gaining access to the Tutor, TM, or HM move, it is from then on able to be used on any of your eligible Pokémon.
  • OHKO moves may not ever be present on any Pokémon.
  • TMs and Move Tutor moves do NOT carry over if traded. The current trainer must have access to the move in order to have his Pokémon learn it.
  • Gender does not matter. Like in Pokemon Conquest, the pokemon can evolve into any gender-specific form as long as it fills the other requirements.
  • All Pokémon must be chosen in their most basic forms, baby forms included. Pokémon can evolve by increasing their Rank (details later).
  • All Pokémon are set to level 100 for battles, and as such do not have any restrictions on Level-Up moves.


Player and Pokémon Stats




  • Each player starts with their chosen Pokémon, a kingdom divided in fifths, and 5000 gold coins in their treasury. More coins may be earned through Events, or selling Pokémon and Items to other players. Note that tutors and TMs require gold coins to obtain, at times through auction. Some Events also require an entrance fee, with greater prizes if they do.
  • You do not start with any items that Pokémon can hold. So for the first Day at least, all battles will be conducted item-less.
  • When you lose land to another player, it is not added to theirs (we'd have an endless game when we hit 2-4 players). It is simply removed from the game. As such, the "land" is treated more like health points. Lose all 5, and you're out. More points may be earned, sometimes by buying more land, sometimes by winning it.
  • Instead of leveling up, Pokémon get stronger depending on their Rank.
    • All Pokémon start at Rank 0.
    • Each Pokémon maxes out at Rank 5.
    • Ranks carry over when traded.
    • At Rank 3, Pokémon can evolve into their first stage.
    • At Rank 5, Pokémon are allowed to evolve into their final stage and/or Mega-Evolve, so long as the trainer has obtained the necessary stone.
  • Trade evolution Pokémon evolve at any Rank when traded, or at the respected Rank for the stage. Pokémon that also require trade items must have that item and be traded for them to evolve early.
  • Pokémon that evolve with friendship evolve at their normal rank.
  • Pokémon that evolve with stones evolve at any rank with the necessary stone, or at the normal rank without one.
  • Ranks are earned by winning challenges or battling opponents (see below).
  • If you were to ever forget any stat on literally anything (how much money you have, your Pokémon stock or ranks, items, move access, ect.), just ask. I will have a record of everything.

Battles: Beginning, Conducting, and Reporting




  • When accepting a match, you must select 6 of your Pokémon to battle your opponent. Upload these Pokémon to PS, and conduct your match there.
  • Be sure to save your Battle Video and send it to me for confirmation. No wins or loses count if I do not have the Battle Video.
  • To report a match, one of the players must PM me the battle video. I will then need to know what Pokémon you wish to apply ranks to, what Pokémon is being lost to the other player, ect.
  • Winner:
    • Receives 1 Pokémon used by opponent in battle. Opponent has no consent over this.
    • Receives +2 ranks, which may be applied to any of his Pokémon used in battle.
  • Not-So Winner:
    • Receives -1 point to their land score.
    • Loses 1 Pokémon used in battle (the leftover Pokémon are still unknown and unaffected).
    • Receives +1 rank to be applied to any of his Pokémon (this is chosen before the Pokémon is lost, and as such, could be given to the other player).
  • Tie:
    • If the battle ends with neither player having any Pokémon left, the battle is a tie. There are no exceptions to this. Rough Skin KOing your opponent's last Pokémon while they kill you leads to a tie, and other similar cases. (C'mon, you can't lead an army with no soldiers.)
    • If it is found that one player purposely avoided battling, they will receive a warning. Two warnings will result in them being eliminated from the game.
    • Both players receive +1 rank to add to any Pokémon used in battle.
  • I shall do whatever I please to those who do not complete matches on time.
  • Defeating a player will result in extra spoils than proposed in each day update.

RE: Kingdoms II - Sign Ups

In with dark, I think. Should be a little easier than Ice (i.e almost impossible lol) but still pretty difficult!
 
RE: Kingdoms II - Sign Ups

In please! Steel-type for me, I think. Suggestions for Natures/Abilities for Pokémon would be useful since I don't usually mess with those much. >_> <_<
 
RE: Kingdoms II - Sign Ups

>vow to not use fairies again
>Mawile allowed

I see how it is.
 
RE: Kingdoms II - Sign Ups

You can still choose Steel and use it. :p

If you need help, you can IM me on Skype. I can give you some tips. :)
 
RE: Kingdoms II - Sign Ups

Thanks, Drohn! I'll likely take you up on that early next week when I have time to decide on some party members and begin to work out a plan. :D

You can find a graph of what all of the natures do here. Basically, the only natures you really care about are Adamant, Modest, Jolly, Timid, and as you're Steel-Type the defensive natures of Impish, Bold, Relaxed, Calm, Sassy and Careful. These either boost one offensive stat and take away from the other one (Adamant and Modest) boost speed and take away from an offensive stat (Jolly and Timid), boost physical defense but take away from an offensive stat or speed (Impish, Bold, Relaxed) or boost special defense but take away from an offensive stat or speed (Calm, Sassy, Careful). I have listed the abilities in order of the stat they lower in the brackets in the order of Attack, Special Attack, Speed (if applicable) in the brackets above. It should also be quite easy to tell which Pokémon need boosted offenses and which need boosted speed; generally boost offenses as a standard and if you know the other typing has a threat which you would like to out speed, which you can do so because of your Base Speeds being within 6 points of each other you can do that too.

That's all right, I think. I did it from memory so you may want to double check some of the natures on the table, but I think I got it right.
 
RE: Kingdoms II - Sign Ups

Finally! :D

/me enters with Steel as of now


Edit: It says that fossils are not legal somewhere?
 
RE: Kingdoms II

bacon always thought I was a Poison-type, so for this round I will be using Poison.
 
RE: Kingdoms II

Before I sign up, I have one question. Are fossil Pokemon (besides Aerodactyl) legal? Aerodactyl is specifically mentioned as unable to be used, so it seems that they are. Just checking, as it will impact my decision.

That's good to hear! I'll still need a bit of time to decide my type though, so I'll be back with a decision later today,

Damn, Amaura would have been super nice last game! :(

Sticking with dark though; lots of variety there! :)
 
RE: Kingdoms II

I've made my decision. Originally, I was going to go with Steel, but since two people have already chosen that, it decided to opt for something else. Rock was also considered, but I think that I'm going to stick to my roots and join using the Grass type.
