Welcome Pokemon and STEEMIT Community. This week we are excited to announce that we are recruiting dedicated members of the PokeSTEEM Battle League Community to join our next venture into STEEMIT History.

As always we are challenging any member of the @steemit community to take part in one of our tournaments and this one promises to be the biggest project we undertake. We are looking for members of the community that can battle Pokemon on a weekly basis for a chance at the title and weekly rewards from the PokeSTEEM Battle League Commission. We are beginning the first season of the PokeSTEEM Battle League where contestants will have to draft the Pokemon for their team and battle against other coaches in a playoff style format leading to the ultimate PokeSTEEM Super Bowl.

PokeSTEEM Battle League Season 1

This seasons tournament will have an entry fee of 1.0 SBD

The first 16 coaches to sign up for the tournament will be able to take part in weekly battles.

Once all 16 teams have been created we will then be able to start drafting and assigning matches for the schedules. The league will be seperated into two Conferences.

Kanto Conference	Johto Conference

@boycharlieplays has already created a team known as the Chicopee Aegislash.

Once assigned a conference and given a schedule players have one week to battle the person they are scheduled to face. The person must work out a proper time to battle with their opponent, failure to schedule a battle will result in a win for the opponent. If both parties fail to report in the Comissioner(@boycharlieplays) will be forced to give both parties a draw.

To join the tournament

1. Go to the PokeSTEEM Battle League Discord Chat and post in the "coach-application" section that you are interested in becoming a coach for the league. We are looking for people who will also report on their battles, content creators that will actually post about their strategies and replays.

2. Wait for @boycharlieplays to respond to your message and send you the link for the gbaleague.com PokeSTEEM Battle League Draft. Once all the teams are made we will go here to begin drafting our Pokemon.

3. Create a logo for your Team Name make something creative that seems like a sports team. Chicopee Aegislash was a combination of @boycharlieplays' hometown and a Pokemon representing a very important item in the city(a sword).
