Welcome to Gaia! ::

So you want to be the best like no one ever was, huh? Sorry, that was in bad taste, any who, you wish to challenge various gym leaders from around the world and earn their badges, right? Then you've come to the right place! Simple pick a region you which to challenge the gym leaders of, PM a member of Tier 1 to ask them to RP as the gym leaders, then post a thread with the words "Badge Run" in the title, example being: "Johto Badge Run - Sub". Never fear however, as you'll only have to face the gym leader themselves, no pesky gym trainers, just remember though, gym leaders are very powerful, there is no handicap given to lower tier members, so be ready for a real fight!

Also to note, you can also RP out the journey in your thread of your character going from gym to gym, that is completely fine. Just make sure you remind the Tier 1 member acting as the gym leaders for you when it is time to fight a gym leader.

If you earn all eight badges of a specific region you are allowed to take on the Elite Four and then the Champion! Those who defeat the Champion will be awarded an amazing prize unlike any other! Seriously.
