Gym Leader Application Thread
This is the official thread for applying for Gym Leader positions. Please make sure you:
-Have thoroughly read the steps needed for becoming a Gym Leader in the Gym League Guide. -Apply using the format provided here. -Understand that you won’t become an official gym leader until the GL staff approve your application. This happens when they make an announcement in this thread and send you a confirmation PM. -Realize that if you request for a specific Gym Leader position and no one else does so in the next 24 hours, you will get the position (as long as your team is strong above average, and is overall balanced). -Don’t apply for a Gym Leader position that has already been taken (by taken, I mean with the Gym already made). -Include all the details needed in the form.

Gym type: Normal Do you know about EVs, IVs and natures?: Yes, yes, and yes. I utilize all as well. IVs however are optional, but I still don't settle for low IVs. =w= Now to think of a badge name that makes "normal" type sound awesome. :V |

Water Gym I do indeed know about EVs, IVs, and Natures. EVs and IVs can be viewed in the sense as "stats" for a Pokémon. The major difference between EVs and IVs is that IVs can not be changed, while EVs can be changed in on a Pokémon. Example: HP UP: Raises the HP EV on a Pokémon. EVs can also be lowered by items as well. Example: Pomeg Berry: Lowers the HP EV of a Pokémon To find good stats for a Pokémon, try to mass capture it and compare the stats with each other. (This also works if you are looking for a Pokémon with a specific nature as well. Now natures in a Pokémon also affect its stats. Every specific nature a Pokémon has, affects which stat would prosper further. Example: Adamant nature raises the Pokémon's attack. I have read the rules and the guide and I understand all requirements to become a Gym Leader. My badge: Last edited by James; March 6, 2010 at 01:18:10 PM. |

Lite (LiteTheIronMan)
Gym Type: Steel Do you know about EV's, IV's, and natures? Yes. I EV my Pokemon in my teams, with the exception of an older team. I do not breed for IV's and natures, though. That makes it all the more tedious and hellish of a process. Lite's Gym Badge: The Reactor Badge Last edited by LiteTheIronMan; March 6, 2010 at 12:17:49 PM. Reason: Added Gym Badge |

Okay, let's start:
1) Yesterday, I wasn't able to declare the registrations open in my thread because the forums encountered a "Database error" which lasted for hours. Therefore, I had to sleep for school. 2) No one is to make any thread in the Gym League forum until he is an approved gym leader or a GL staff member. 3) Even if you were the first to apply in this thread for a type, and another member applied for the same type, you do not have an advantage. Therefore, to settle out any problems that might result from this, all people applying for the same type within the next 24 hours would have to battle using their intended teams. The winner will be the gym leader of the type. 4) Please do not turn this into a chat thread. It is merely for posting applications for becoming gym leaders. 5) I'll be creating a thread in the "Announcements" section with the official list of gym leaders soon, so be on the look for it. Now, here's my application form (just in case anyone starts saying: "You became the gym leader without applying!") : The Application Form Member name: Shadow Type: Water Do you know about EVs, IVs and natures?: Yes, I know and utilize them all. There's no type called "Uber", so your form is completely disregarded. Check point '2' above. Last edited by Shadow; March 7, 2010 at 03:44:28 AM. |

Although I am really pissed of that this thread got puzzled and all of the members started rushing and didn't have the patience to WAIT for the application thread to be opened, and although someone has already applied for the Gym I want, yet I want to take the position that I have prepared since November...
Name: The Spirit of Time (call me Spirit) GYM: Steel I know about EVs, IVs and natures. My team is all ready along with badge. I will send everything to you Shadow. Last edited by Shadow; March 7, 2010 at 03:45:32 AM. |

-_- Jad took the type I was after.....oh well, suppose I`ll choose a different one, then.
I`ll go with: The Application Form Member name: AuraKshatriya (I suppose "Aura" can be used as a form of shortened name) Type: Ground Do you know about EVs, IVs and natures?: Yes, and I often utilize at least two of the three (EVs and Nature) relatively often. Badge: Deciding between the names "Seismic Badge" and "Quake Badge". Will finalize the name by the end of the day. I`ll also try to get a badge design up by then as well.

Okay, the first page of this thread has been updated with the official list of gym leaders in the Victory Road forums. Please check it out.
Also, if your name is listed there, be sure to take a look at this thread for further information about creating your gym. Lastly, congratulations to all the chosen gym leaders! _________________________________________________ Side note: Application for the Poison- and Ghost-type gym is still open.

After thinking things through, I may not battle competitively, but I think I could lend a hand in this.
Flare Poison Yes, I know about that stuff, but I prefer not to apply those training methods. I'll put a team together... Last edited by Flare Soru; March 13, 2010 at 01:16:59 AM. |

I will be more than happy to create icons out that actually look appealing to the eye for your badges, based on a design, or of my own creation. I say this purely because of the sheer amount of MS Paint I see above here. I make some GM games, and am quite talented as a spriter, so seriously just give me a shout.
And, as more of a side note:If alakazmaster doesn't want to be flying type gym leader, I will GLADLY take his position, so consider this before other applications if he steps down, K?

I´m not taking a gym leader position... I´m just showing badges for Ghost- and Poison-type gyms.
First is the Ghost-gym`s badge, the Eerie Badge (taken). Second is Poison-gym`s Nuclear Badge. Last edited by Loechai; March 13, 2010 at 03:33:56 AM. |

Well, it seems nobody´s taking the Ghost-type. I´ll take it then.
Member name: Loechai Gym type: Ghost Do you know about EVs, IVs and natures?: Yes, no, yes. Breeding? Yes. My badge will be: the Eerie Badge. Last edited by Loechai; March 13, 2010 at 03:32:44 AM. |

Okay, the Electric-type gym leader spot has been filled by aragornbird. Since all the gym leader positions have been taken now, this thread will be closed again.
Also, Falco, like the others said, please do not post here before a gym leader position is empty. I understand that you want to be a gym leader so that you can enjoy your time, so I'll consider you as soon as a spot becomes free. |

Since Pikaluv1's Ice Gym got eliminated, application for the vacancy is now open. However, do note that there's a possibility of testing the team which you intend to use for your gym by one of the GL staff. Alternatively, the staff can analyze the team and have their say on it, which will in turn decide if you're accepted or not.
Types not taken: Bug Dark Ghost Grass Ground Ice Poison Rock Please use the application form provided in the first page to apply, and don't forget to send a copy of your team to one/all of the GL staff members. Also, do NOT apply for a type which is already taken, otherwise infractions might be given out. Last edited by Shadow; September 8, 2010 at 10:13:38 AM. |

Member name: Serenade

Member Name: GrassPokemonFTW

Name: Blues
Gym type: Dark Badge name: Shade Badge Do you know about EVs, IVs and natures: Yes, yes, and yes. And I've trained all of my Pokemon as such. Kaz already knows my team, and I assure that he can vouch for me in that respect. I'd rather not send it to anyone else though, just because I'd like to keep it secretive. EDIT: Changed type to dark.

Username:AuraKshatriya
Gym Type:Ground Badge Name:Fissure Badge Do you know about EVs, IVs, and Natures:Yes. (Note that I`m applying to be on the safe side, but I`m still not entirely sure I`d want to be a GL through application as opposed to defeating them all, so I may change my mind afterwards). Team to be sent. EDIT:I`ve come to the conclusion that I`d rather reach the title of "Gym Leader" by defeating all the current ones, so I`ll be that much stronger when I do. As a result, I`d like to withdraw my application for the position of Gym Leader. Last edited by AuraKshatriya; October 24, 2010 at 03:23:46 PM. |

I request all the applicants to have a look at the announcement in this thread. It mentions that the number of gym leaders has been reduced to 8 only, and so there will be no position open for application anymore.
