Greetings everyone and thanks for your interest in PRL. As you know we are entering last 48 hours for scheduled competitor applications and we majorly lack people to compete in this.

All of our current competitive events in PokeMMO targets only the top tier of players, leaving mid-experienced or low-experienced players a big gap to close before they can participate in anything fun. Not to mention a lot of metagames for high-experienced players become pretty repetitive and non-innovative most of the time.

These issues result in majority of playerbase quitting the game right after finishing the story or quitting early in competitive scene before getting any decent experience. PRL aims to break the mold regarding those issues. We have no one to support and make this happen other than our community players and teams. So if you all give us a hand to gather as many competitors as you can to this, we can make this happen together and allow people from every skill level to learn from each other and have fun!

Thank you in advance!

Update:
We will extend competitor applications until end of 15th of July, if we get at least 20 competitors before end of 15th of July, we will allow more competitors during first week of Gym Challenge frame as well (until end of 23rd of July).

A lot of people have invested too much effort in this, and we are close to reaching our marks so we are giving this one more day.

Wah, what a busy day for everyone!

Also! There were some battles caught on camera today!

Suneet vs bbJr
Momentum switched sides many times. It was a devastating battle between bbJr's incredible force of dragons and Suneet's unstoppable storm!
 

Spoiler

 


Drayyton vs Xigbaar

Xigbaars tricky battlefield conditions were attempted to be dismantled systematically and elegantly by Drayyton!
 

Spoiler

 


SenorMorty vs HDSkyfish

Such a close battle that could go either way! This battle is definition of hanging on by skin of the teeth... or properly executed plans!
 

Spoiler

 


We hope to have more exciting and amazing battles thru the Gym Challenge frame! Cheers everyone!

And there goes the 2nd day of Gym Challenge frame.

As the first day rush is over a total of 28 badges were given on second day! With that, SweeTforU, ZeknShooter and Suneet earned their 8th badge and their rightful ticket to preliminaries. Congratulations!

Personally, I was extremely busy today and since I have no recording staff to help me. I missed to record bunch of battles and it made me quite sad. BUT from those that I could watch and record, I've seen a newcomer to PRL and his battle took my interest!

llChelo vs LavaFlow

Since the biggest clue a Gym gives you before a battle is the theme, when you see a Gym titled "Fighting Type" you wouldn't bring 5 normal types to the battle would you? llChelo boldly and without any doubt did that!

Best of luck to everyone and see you tomorrow!

3rd day left behind!

We have got some new faces in PRL and we have reached competitor count of 30! Of course time will tell how many of those people will be able to carve their path to preliminaries. Speaking of preliminaries, in day 3, Drayyton and xSparkie got their final badges and secured their seats in the preliminaries. Congratulations!

And for the interesting matches that were caught on camera today;

urquidi vs AQA
I've known AQA was asking for triple battles and I honestly had no idea about what was going on at first few turns of battle. After a few turns it started to make sense and the battle got really interesting! Glad that I finally got the opportunity to catch one of such battles live!

Spoiler

 

 

urquidi vs EGuy
Second match that features urquidi as challenger today but both matches were worthy to watch so I couldn't just leave them! This battle smelled of pure experience from both trainers. It should be used as educational video in Pokémon Schools about Pokémon Battles.

Spoiler

 

 

xSparkie vs Mannoroth
Last but not least, xSparkie challenging "Coffin and the bruises" style of Mannoroth. The battle was completely mummified by two Cofagrigus. Everyone, their grandparents, their cousins, their children and their long lost brothers/sisters were mummified in a single battle. It was one of the battles that could go anywhere and of course, was interesting to watch!

Spoiler

 


As always, best of luck to everyone and see you tomorrow!

My recording software was playing coy today D: also I was at wrong place at wrong time to catch challenges. I've missed multiple matches with a few seconds or minutes. D:

Frimma vs Kasperl
But hey, even with the issues I had with recording, this match was so good to not upload. Frimma attempted to keep the sanity against Kasperl, the master of Horrors. The match started slow but ended with an epic finish! Worth watching!

We will hold a public single elimination tournament this Sunday! If you are tuned in here but not in discord yet, hop on and see the details!
See you on next day!

Day 5 is behind!

We are getting close to end of extended competitor registrations, yet new people keep coming in! Yay! The pace is not slowing down as we gave out total of 24 badges today even though Saturday was supposed to be the day when our Gym Leaders are least active! Along with the fast pace, two more solid trainers have crossed the finish line for Gym Challenge period. Congratulations to Cali and Frimma on collecting 8 badges and clearing their path to the next stage.

Now that my recording software has recovered from it's sickness. Interesting matches of the day!

Beardohh vs EGuy

As a newcomer to PRL, Beardohh instantly got four badges with an unstoppable force. As the next challenge on his quest, there was one of the most experienced and strong Gym Leaders, the Normal type expert, EGuy. Was an exciting and high tempo battle.

Spoiler

 


kiwikidd vs bbJr
When it comes to raw force, bbJr's dragon army always manages to suppress the opposing side. Today on the camera, was kiwikidd's attempt to endure and overcome the force of dragons. Of course the battle had a winner, but if it was up to me I'd call this match a draw. It was so equal that the match was decided by a coin toss... sort of.

Spoiler

 


Remember we are having a public tournament today! Check PRL discord if you haven't already!
Good luck to everyone and see you tomorrow!

Late Day 7 report! Whoops!

 

Today is the last day for new challengers. If you are interested in PRL, this is your last chance!
As most of the competitors find their way to their 8th badges, Gym Challenges will inevitably slow down while we all start to prepare for preliminaries. But for today, congratulations to aftershocker for getting his 8th badge and being qualified to move further!

I will probably get too little opportunities to record matches from now on as most people are already qualified and I need to make preparations for next stages of the event. But if I get the chance to catch challenges and record them, I'll surely share!

See you tomorrow and best of luck to everyone!

Ding ding! Competitor applications are now closed for good!

Let's see how many of the remaining people can manage to gather 8 badges before the deadline! And also, congratulations for Guillex on completing his 8 badges and proceeding to next stage!

The whole process so far made me see a lot of opportunities for improvement on PRL even though everything was working as intended so far. I expect to see a much better and even more fun experience before preliminaries on 2nd season! Thanks a lot to everyone supporting and participating!

According to feedback I received from participants, everyone involved had fun and those who needed it got a lot of experience along the way, which was the main goal of this phase. I am happy about how this turned out. Also none of this would have happened without you all supporting so thanks a lot to everyone!

During Royal League, we will have an internal betting system (because of massive requests on this) that will be managed by PRL staff as middleman. You can join our discord for details when the time comes if you haven't already!

Here is the list of qualified people who will be playing in preliminaries on next phase:

Week1 Day1

Transaction to Royal League and something entirely new like RACs brings confusion and adaptation along. Also some timings were unfortunate for the first day, but I expect things to get better once competitors get used to things! Here are the results for day one of first week!

Cali vs urquidi
Cali announced she won't be able to attend this weekend so she forfeited early without participating.


Drayyton vs Pittzin
Pitzzin somehow thought his match was tomorrow, and happened to be out of town today. Lack of attention lost him automatically.


SweeTforU vs Suneet
Quick match that was forfeited by SweeTforU at 5th minute. Apparently SweeTforU did not read RAC rule carefully and misplayed because of that. A valuable lesson for all competitors in future.

Week1 Day2
Was a fun day! Results are in!

kiwikidd vs SenorMorty

Despite claiming to be less prepared for battle, SenorMorty did battle quite well! Still, in the end the "Roar"ing battle ended in kiwikidd's grasp.
Yikes, sorry for the high music volume on recording. Accidents happen D:

Spoiler

 


Leviatharian vs Guilleex

This was a pretty fun battle. Bad luck did not help Leviatharian as he faced a powerful trainer who can utilize 100% of the field to his advantage.

Spoiler

 


Next week's fixtures will be announced at midnight as usual! Best of luck to everyone!
