THE ELECTRICITY THIEF

He always turns up late at night
His visits often brief
With a bag of leads
To serve his needs
He’s the electricity thief

He plugs in a gadget
Once inside the door
He’s only after 12 volt
Or sometimes 24

He boots up his laptop
You stare in disbelief
His transformer
Getting warmer
He’s the electricity thief

He takes it from the rich
And takes it from the poor
He’s only after 12 volt
Or sometimes 24

He’ll plug in a mobile
He doesn’t mind which socket
When it’s full
He’ll say “That’s cool”
And leave there like a rocket

At times he takes a little
On others he takes more
He’s only after 12 volt
Or sometimes 24

Watch your meter spin away
And your bills spiral high
Without even a head-nod
He’ll fill up his Ipod
Electricity thieves don’t buy

He’s heartless and thoughtless
He is rotten to the core
He only wants your 12 volt
Or maybe 24

With a Walkman he’ll ignore you
And listen to the Keiser Chiefs
He doesn’t want your flattery
Just a full charge on his battery
Like all electricity thieves

Don’t show him to a power point
Just show him to the door
He’s only after 12 volts
Or a trickle of 24

His behaviour is shocking
He has many tricks up his sleeves
His latest charger's
Larger
Check it before he leaves

Never trust the bright spark
Watch your sockets near the floor
He'll rob you blind of 12 volt
And maybe some 24

If you see him outside your house
He's probably doing a recky
Don't let him in
To steal and grin
He's only after your 'lecky

He'll rob you if you're rich
And rob you if you're poor
He'll steal it as 12 volt
And even 24

In all his transformer glory
He is guilty and fully charged
But be careful everybody
He’s still out there
The electricity thief’s still at large

~~Outcast Poet~~

Welcome, welcome... To the Lightning Valley Gym! The official Electric type Gym of PokeBoard, here you shall experience the blindingly fast, the paralyzing pains, and the shocking stings of electricity.
With only one weakness, the Electric type Pokemon are not ones to play around with. There are times where Lightning itself will pierce the Ground...

Defeating me will earn you the badge and a nice sum of PokeDollars in your wallet.

Each challenge will cost 25 PokeDollars, each win will earn you 100 PokeDollars.

Below are the names of the winners of this Gym, worthy of the Voltage Badge:

Come at me bro.

My Wins

- Cypher -
Your team is well balanced and I love that. Jolteon was a great lead, with the balloon and the SubYawn. You might want to give Togekiss Thunder Wave since Electric types are susceptible to their own element. Save for Stunfisy <3 You may want to also add in traps like spikes and toxins, they can really throw any team off. A great battle worth the connection hassle! xD

- Zorua -
You were pretty good, Perish Song was great to attempt me to force out my Elecktross and possibly to another Pokemon that doesn't have Levitate so your Rampardos could come in and possibly Earthquake me to death. However, the team is okay but not much balanced. Some Pokemon should be able to support the other and predict the next move wisely. (Ex. Be wary of the Electivire.)

Credit to Spiri for making such a detailed and electrifying badge ^^

Seems like you finally got a gym...

As we are rivals, I ask for a challenge- whenever you are ready, I will be ready (that is, after RoC finishes my new team). I look forward to our challenge.

I aim to be a gym leader myself, so let's just see how this goes... Oh, yes, the Psychic Type will do...

04-23-2011 08:07 AM

Ah yes. I'll put you on a waiting list. Pay the fee on the day of the battle, 'ight? xD

04-23-2011 08:16 AM

stick me on the list for this please SOTM?

04-23-2011 08:19 AM

Sure thing Rowey! You're like one of my favorite people to battle with! *Along with Eli, Cypher, Spiri and Charvey* XD

Yeah.

I know you'll have a wildcard that's super effective against your own type. >.< Don't be surprised if I'm hesitant to use my Jolteon. :/

And... Where to you all get those poems? I'm sure you don't write them yourself, but...

04-23-2011 08:22 AM

Possibly.
I'm looking for something to replace my Stunfisk <3 since he is a good wall but he can't attack back so well... Even with Pain Split, healing is hard.

xD I plan to make the team so rough that even other Electric types will be sweating in nervousness! >:3

04-23-2011 08:26 AM

Can I challenge maybe sunday?

and good u like battling me, cos this is at least one more right? Smile

04-23-2011 08:27 AM

Yap. xD

Sunday? This Sunday? Sure! *Depends whether or not my Dad drags the whole family around in a family outing.... which is just us visiting a bunch of stores T^T*

Of course. It's going to be hard, though, with electric-on-electric doing only half damage, and to make it even worse, a smart use of items will make it even worse.

If I recall, though, some electric types can learn Earthquake (particularly Electivire. I swear, every Electivire I've seen except mine has Earthquake... I even predicted someone was going to use it in PBR Online. And they did. :/ ). There's your chance. But then there are other types to deal with... It's rather annoying, anyway.

Battery Cell + Volt Absorb = Epic Win

And yes, I am aware I told you all that. I want a challenge, as my team isn't particularly weak to Electric types.

*gives Ampharos and Jolteon a balloon*

I can go for Saturday if you'd like, I'm completely free that day (and hopefully my order will ne done by then... If it's not, can I ask you to do it?

04-23-2011 08:40 AM

Hm, that sounds rather good but rare to have people bring in Electric types in to an Electric Gym xD
I'll consider it...

Saturday sounds good, once I go and make a few new team members for the Gym and I'll try and do your request. That is once RoC hasn't replied yet xD

04-23-2011 08:42 AM

Meh, I have my plans (I think).

04-23-2011 12:29 PM

Lmao u need to be a poet to be a gym leader?
Anyway I challenge ^^

04-23-2011 02:51 PM

Wow, congratulations, Shaddy. ^^

04-23-2011 07:00 PM

It's more of a thing Gym Leader's do xD

And thanks Spiri!
*adds pk605 into the list*

04-23-2011 09:33 PM

I look forward to this.

You know my team now, I don't know yours... Fun.

04-23-2011 09:34 PM

XD Yeah. I can tell Jolteon will not be fun for one of my team members.
I'm transferring them now...

04-23-2011 10:51 PM

I might challenge sometime in the future. I'm kinda hoping to become a Gym Leader myself, though. XD
*Will fail*

04-23-2011 11:26 PM

Should I add you to the Challenger's List Spiri? ^^

Daw, you kinda wiped the floor with me with.... that o.0

04-23-2011 11:27 PM

Hmm. Tempting.

No thank you - not just now.
