General Rules

1) There is to no trolling or derailing of any Pokémon Play Through event.  If a post accidentally causes a derailment, subsequent posts will be removed for the sake of the event.  Intentional derailment or trolling will be dealt based on the frequency of said actions within the event and/or past events played.

2) There is to be no negative criticism of another's team or play style.  The game is about customization, get over it.

3) Do not start debates on play styles.  If you want to discuss the merits of a play style (rounded team vs. one heavy hitter, all fire team, ect.) take it to the Pokémon Center and start a thread.

4) a) Do not discuss other games.  For example in a generation limited game (Gen I) you cannot discuss Gen VI.  There are forums for said discussions.

4) b) Do not discuss the feasibility of moves.

5) Do not start playing or hosting an event if you do not intend to finish the play through.  All players may play and finish at their own pace, however if it prolongs the event and/or delays an upcoming event you will be warned to finish or risk losing your points for that event.

6) To host an event you must have at least 2000 posts, 10 karma and no curses.  To host contact Dragon in the Shadows via PM.

7) Only one play through event is permitted at any given time.  If you wish to host you must wait until any current game has been declared as ended by a moderator.

Event Rules

1) Obey the host.  If the host does something that goes against the General Rules or DWS rules notify a member of the staff, otherwise the host is in charge.

2) In order to participate restarts are required.

3) Event requirements must be followed.  Meaning if the event requires you to play a game for a specific generation you must play a game from that generation.  The host may group certain games differently, for example including HeartGold and SoulSilver as Gen II games.

4) Updates are mandatory after beating every gym and after beating the Elite Four.  These updates must include your full team, their levels and current move set.

5) Cheating devices (Action Replay) are not permitted unless use of said cheat devices are permitted and specified by the host.

6) If a player openly admits that they are playing a generation there is to be no spoilers unless they say they do not mind.  Otherwise let them enjoy the ride.  Small vague advice is permitted, such as the following example:

"Keep a spot open in your team when you go to Iron Island"

Update

Due to lack of activity this event has been postponed.  It will be re-launched sometime in February.  Restrictions and/or challenges may change.  The re-launch will be announced in the chat box.

this is lame. I ALREADY did this type of play through on X. You just wanna take my idea because you wanna play y or x through with only new pokemon like I did.

That wasn't a derailment or a troll so don't remove my post.

This time I will be playing pokemon Y and my team will consist of:

Charmander
Squirtle
Fenniken
Froakie
Chespin
Riolu

That is what I am playing and if you don't like it too bad.

Sorry, my bad.  I was going to give you full credit for the theme of the event.  Slip my mind.  It seemed like something people rarely do so I figured it would be interesting.  I know I haven't done it since Gen I.  If you feel offended I can lock the thread and come up with another theme and later on we can revisit this one since you already did it.

you can still play that way. There just isn't a need for so many restrictions.  If you really wanna restrict so much maybe do it later but In me saying that I don't want to restrict your game play if that is how you wanna do your next play through.

The restrictions are merely to add a bit of challenge.  Let me put it this way, I've played Diamond, Pearl and Platinum countless times.  I know what to expect and thus prepare accordingly.  A play through of those games is routine and the teams are similar.  Now if you were to tell me I couldn't use a Fire Pokemon things get interesting.  In this case I want to use your restriction so people will fill the gaps with different Pokemon that they've never used before.  For example using Heliolisk or Dedenne instead of Pikachu or Jolteon.

I have plans for a play through in which everyone will receive a specific Pokemon from myself which will have to join them on their journey...Still working out the details on that one.

I know.  Right now our activity level is low and based on the number of entries in the last event, I might be able to do it through trades.  But enough of that.  I have been giving this event some thought and the generation limitation will be optional for this one.  I do plan on revisiting this limitation again on the future as I said earlier most people don't use this kind of restriction usually.

X is better in my opinion, but that's great.  I'm actually gonna scrap this event and relaunch it in Feb.  No one has been active enough to keep it going (I blame the arctic vortex).  I figure it might do better then.

hey fak u. Y can be good. Just because it doesn't have Charizard doesn't make it less good. Make a new event. I'm back now. I finally got internet and I'm in my own place now.

   Y has Charizard dumba***.  Anywho the activity level just isn't there.  A play though event with just two people involved is rather boring.  If activity increases, I'll relaunch the event.

Think of it this way, you have a chance to get caught up and enjoy the game before the next event.  And for the record, I've only played both games once all the way.  I've restarted X a couple of times (due to boredom), but never finished it a second time (due to laziness).

I love it so far. It is on track to be my favorite generation.

I do look forward to other 3DS games. I got Super Mario 3D Land too.
