Clans
Clans are the biggest attraction, and the most popular for battling and interacting with other members.

The purpose of a clan is to group with friends and battle each other or other clans. That means, all posts within the clan need to be Clan Related. That means all off-topic chit chatting needs to go elsewhere.

General Posts like "Hi everyone, How are you doing today?" aren't allowed. This is a forum, not a messenger service. If you want to chat freely with someone, use Daily Chit Chat or an instant messenger. There are also plenty of threads around the forum for discussion.

You can talk about clan trading/cloning, but it highly prefered that you do trading in the Trading Board.

General Rules

- You may only be in 1 Clan at a time.
- If you are asked to not post in someones clan, then stay out. Period.
- To be an official clan, you need at least 5 active members. You can have as many members as you need.

Creating a Clan
Anyone can create a Clan, just make sure you organize it properly. Use the following form to get you started:

1)Intro
2)Purpose for being created
3)Rules for the clan
4)Members list
5)Member Rankings(Tryout battler, etc...)
6)Clan Banners
7)War Record

Add anything else you desire. An unorganized Clan may be closed down.

Battle Requests

For clan-related battles, you may post in the thread of the clan challenging another clan-member. For normal battles you should use this thread, which should be the main source of finding a battle.
When you find a battle, talk with them through PM/Messenger. When the battle is over, you can discuss it in your clan, but only with meaningful discussion and not short posts like "gg you were good".

Reporting

Sometimes problems arise. If you see flamming, arguments, spamming, etc, contact a Moderator or Report the post. Every time your Report something, the forum becomes a better place to live.

Other Posts

Don't post your Banners or Sprites or other artwork, unless they are related to the clan. Don't talk about your favorite music or movies. Etc.

Penalties

It is the Clan Leader's responsibility to make sure his/her clan members follow these rules. If you see these rules being broken, you should take action to warn your clan mates.

Clan Wars
A Clan War is when one Clan challenges another Clan to battle.

- Only the Clan Leader can challenge another Clan to War, and only that Leader can accept/deny.
- At least 5 members from each team participate. There's no max but it needs to be an odd number.
- No illegal hacks. Period. Using illegal hacks will disqualify the battler.
- A Clan can only be in 1 Clan War at a time.
- If a Clan drops out of War, and has 3 or more losses, then the other Clan officially wins.

Official War Rules:

6 vs 6 Lv. 100
No Hacks
No Ubers
No OHKO moves. ex: Fissure

Other rules or clauses can be added on, but only if the two leaders agree to it.
