Hi Zero! May I be the first to welcome you to my humble le boad! I am Chrono and one of the admins, if you need any help or questions just ask a member of staff (The red and white people)! Post loads and talk to people and jump into any forum activities, we don't discriminate or exclude people! hope you have a good time here at RAYS!

Hey there Chrono. Thanks for the welcome.. I was trying to read through this whole gym thing.. I'm wanting to take on a few people and see how I am doing but not until my team is ready of course.. Can I ask. Why is it that ten pokemon are required?

Before people were allowed to alter their teams and use any pokemon on a gym leader, this caused an unfair advantage as gym leaders were constantly attacked by the same pokemon but different traininers. The 10 pokemon restriction allows you to have a custom team and extras to change between gyms but this case you cannot make a team specifically to battle on leader then move on to the next and make another team (this was also added due to pokegen making it easy for someone to create a team in a matter of 5 minutes). This also adds a dynamic of challenge as you must think of 10 pokemon which can be used together to take on the league, of course for every 2 gyms you can trade one pokemon for another.

If you need help creating a team most members here are experienced players and will be more than happy to help you!

Well I already have a team of 6 set up so if I was wanting to take on any of the Gym Leaders and eventually the Elite 4 (Yeah, I'm hoping of taking on the best this forum has to offer) I'd need ten pokemon?

Hey zero! Welcome to rays I'm Ito, one of the mods here and also one of the e4. Hope your liking it here so far

I'm loving it.. Thanks for the welcoming

No you don't need 10 but you need up too 10 so 10 is the maximum!

Ah I see. Thanks for clearing that up

Be sure to look at the different types he gym leaders are so you can pick the right Pokemon cuz once you pick your 10 your stuck with them for a while k?

I think I have a nice team.. Mind if I share what I have with you?

Welcome to the site! I hope you enjoy it here ^.^
...that's all I can think of to say...

Thaaaank you!

Galvantula
Vaporeon
Arcanine

Not bad lol. But ground or dragon types might do a number to them but besides that you'll prob do fine. Pick those last 4 spot carefully k
