What are the rules?
- Firstly, no rude, offensive, abusive posts. If you are caught posting things which are offensive in any way, your post will be edited and if you repeatedly post offensive things, you may face a ban from the Forums.
- Secondly, no Spam. Posting again and again is not necessary. There is an edit button on all of your posts which you change click to change any of your messages or add to them. Use this if you forget something. You also shouldn't post just to get your post count up. If you are caught doing this, we will set your rank to a lower one which you will not be able to get off. Read below for more details on this.

How do I become an Elite?
- The "Elite Four" title is reserved for the four webmasters of Psypoke: TonberryKing, Amphy, darkmind and Frost. It is unlikely that this will change in the near future, and thus nobody else will be given the "Elite Four" title.

How do I become a Gym Leader?
- The "Gym Leader" title is reserved for moderators of the forums. Moderators clean up offensive posts or spam and move inappropriate topics to other forums. Gym Leaders are chosen by the Elite Four on the basis of how people behave and contribute on the forums. Gym Leaders are appointed when an opening becomes available, and are chosen at that time. Simply contribute, and you will have a chance of becoming a Gym Leader. The best thing to do is not to ask us, we'll call you

How do I get my post count up?
- By posting CONSTRUCTIVE topics and replies. Spamming, or repeated posting is frowned upon. Post topics which are worthwhile and create discussion!

How do I change my rank?
- The ranks are based on your post count. Contributing more will increase your post count. The ranks are:
Bug Catcher - - 0 Posts
Pokefan - - 25 posts
Pokemaniac - - 50 posts
Cooltrainer - - 100 posts
Pokemon Master - - 250 posts
Pokemon Professor - - 500 posts
??? - - A LOT of posts


What is the rank for 'A LOT' of posts? Are there any more ranks?
- You will have to find out by getting there yourself. There's more ranks to achieve than the ones listed here.

How do I get a Trainer Card for my signature?
-Simply fill out the application form here: http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~psypoke/amp ... ercard.php

How do I get Ribbons/Medals/Badges for my Trainer Card?
- Check out this page here: http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~psypoke/amphy/ribbons.htm Note: You must have a Trainer Card to get Ribbons etc added to your card.

How do I contact an Elite/Admin?
The easiest way is to send an email using the Contact Form. You can also post in the help forum as anybody is free to post there. Please do not send us Pokemon-related questions!

Who is "Elite4 Admin"?
This is a joint account between the four webmasters and is generally not used, so don't bother sending any messages to it, as a response is unlikely.

How do you create new teams of your own?
Just asking. Thanks.

No more teams can be made now, due to the fact that there was an overload of teams a while back and the mods don't want to clean all that spam so they forbode the creation of any more teams, though there were six at the time Nightmare and Midnight combine so now there are five.

There is a team for every type. We havent yet finished sorting everything out for the teams.

That would be too cluttered and spread out the team membership to just a few people per team. That's why we only have five teams and have each team cover 3 or 4 types, so we have 5 large teams rather than 17 small teams.

What rank do I need to get a trainr card?

It's what you're reading, silly. It's the TOPIC.

ook thanks, im new to this psypoke thing. one more question someone said to come here to find out what psybucks are for, but what are they for?

Click the Profile link at the top of the page, and scroll down to the signature and avatar sections. Edit as wanted.

first, you can choose ur TimeZone

second, it is just the amount of posts

If you're answering his second question, you couldn't be more wrong. The Elite Four are the admins for the site and forums, whereas the Lite Four are junior admins which can perform some basic admin functions on the forums, such as banning.
