TarlarThe list most likely needs updating, so I will get to that rather than deleting it. We have so many little threads I forget what we have and what we don't! xP Calamity AsheThanks! I mainly used zap but also like the ORAS/Spring skin, so it's nice to know that the new one is good enough to swap to. But at the same time, those skins will always be there, so atleast there is a choice to switch back to them if we ever need a change. MeganAww, thank you very much! We really did try to stick as close as we could to the original, zap, but our next few will be different colours entirely. LamontThanks for pointing this out. I just gave it a go too and can see exactly what you mean. I'll play around with it later and try to get it fixed! --- Also updating Ana and Megan with their coins.

The fearsome red head had disappeared without a trace, leaving a bewildered Rakutsu behind. That was a very strange way to begin his adventure here, in the Johto region and hopefully there weren't many more vile trainers like him. Still, the whole reason he came to the region was to sign up for the IPF, so any bad guy would be taken down sooner or later, including the terrible Team Rocket. He had a long way to go but if he worked hard, the red haired boy would be brought to justice and thrown behind bars for his terrible actions. It was now Rakutsu's own, personal, goal to accomplish and no one would be able to stop him from doing so. With his partner, Bulbasaur, having shared the experience with him, the grass type likely wanted the same as his trainer. But for now, they needed to train or progress onto the next city.
Following the dirt path which led along Route 29 and towards the neighbouring, small sea side city of Cherrygrove, Rakutsu very soon came across his first wild encounter. Something he could potentially catch and wasn't a horrible, red human being. Instead, it was the sound of rustling from a nearby bush catching his attention and perched in the foliage was a small bug. Known as a Wurmple, the red caterpillar like creature was happily munching away on some leaves before it noticed the trainer's presence. Perking up it's poisonous horns, it was up to the trainer if he wanted to use this as a training chance or to move on.
 A wild Wurmple (Level 4) appeared! Please select a Pokemon and move to use in battle or Flee!
OOC: Bulbasaur also gains 3 level for defeating Silver and learns Leech Seed.

Bugsy was certain that the face of Tyler was familiar in some way and soon enough, the words that the boy spoke soon stuck in the Gym Leader's head. He couldn't remember the exact name but it all made sense. This man had a brother who had likely been a previous challenger at his Gym, only, he couldn't recall him having this much of a... Strong presence. Tyler certainly had Bugsy's full attention and the young boy was about to work out why. "Aha! I see! So your brother challenged the Gym, did he?" Only the question he had just asked very quickly vanished from his mind, as if forgetting he had even spoken, when the next words of Tyler escaped his lips. Very boldly admitting to being a member of Team Rocket, there was a very mixed range of emotion on the face of Bugsy. Was he simply joking? He had to admit, there was something about Tyler that he couldn't quite put his finger on and by being a member of Team Rocket, answered his queries. Surprised, confused and a lot more on edge, Bugsy wanted nothing more than to rid the world of Team Rocket but without definitive proof, could not cast Tyler out of his Gym.
Instead, he tried to give the trainer the benefit of the doubt, hoping that he was being sarcastic. But this accompanied with the previous suggestion of burning down the Gym didn't sit well with him at all. Coughing to clear the lump in his throat, Bugsy had been silently staring, slack jawed for long enough. "I will ignore your previous Rocket comment, as all criminals are forbidden from entering or challenging my Gym. Team Rocket are scum who plague these lands and do harm to our local Slowpoke. No matter how many times I chase them away, they swarm back, multiplied in number... I will not believe you are a Rocket and if you are, that simply means I will defeat you and hand you over to the police." Very serious in tone, Bugsy instead focused on his Metapod, acknowledging Tyler's choice in Pokemon and ordering an attack of his own. "The opponent is of a disadvantageous type! Hurry with Bug Bite!" Feeling himself panic over the thought of facing a Rocket, the young boy knew that he would need help from the local authorities to lock him away, if his words were indeed true.
Instead, he was faced with the powerful snarling of Mania, the Zorua he had chosen to go first. A heavy knock entered his ears shortly after the vision snarl which escaped her jaw and certainly enough, the Metapod had fainted out of pure fear. Blinking in shock, Bugsy had never seen his Pokemon fall in such a way. "What the..." Whispering to himself in disbelief, the young boy didn't want to believe what just happened to be the truth but slowly withdrew his Pokemon. "It looks like I need to be a bit more serious with you. Come on out, Scyther!" Selecting his second choice, a much more menacing Pokemon emerged this time. But Bugsy was still in shock over what happened with his Metapod. Just what was this challenger capable of?
 Metapod: | Level 18 | Health: 0% ( 0/51 HP) Status: Fainted ...
VS
Mania: | Level 25 | Black Glasses
Health: 100% (62/62 HP)
Status: Normal
Mania used Snarl!
Congratulations!Bugsy's Metapod was defeated! Mania gained 900 exp! (900/1951) +1 Happiness ___________________________________  Bugsy sends in Scyther (Level 21) to battle! Switch Pokemon?

 A wild Magikarp (Level 7) was hooked! Rod level raised by 0.5!
Marchbaby had worked incredibly hard to train Cannon Fodder and in return, he received something truly amazing. Although the previous battle wasn't all that hard, Alpha was still fairly young and inexperienced, meaning that it needed to continue with it's training if it hoped to get anywhere close to evolving anytime soon. The male trainer had a plan, however. No matter how long it took, he would raise a team worthy enough of defeating his brother as well as protecting those around him. It was a distant dream but if he worked hard, then things would start falling into place before he knew it. Tossing the line back out into the jetty which sat in the centre of Route 32, he waited and waited for another bite. Anything to train against would be fine but Magikarp were easy targets. If another trainer found him, then that would be alright too but for now, this was enough. Atleast until Alpha learnt a few more moves, in order to defend himself properly, or even evolve.
Swimming beneath the water's surface were many Magikarp and Tentacool, many oblivious to the hook and bait which had begun floating amongst the ripples of the water. It took a few moments before a fishy opponent finally caught sight of the floating food and without even a moment's hesitation, the dumb fish swam towards it and took a mighty bite. In return, Marchbaby felt the tug and yanked the rod up into his arms, forcing the Magikarp up and out of the jetty, thus landing on dry land. Flopping around maniacally, Alpha took this as it's cue to... Give the Magikarp a hand. Floating forward, the Beldum made a harsh tackle, damaging itself in the process but ultimately fainting the landed fish before sending it flying through the air and back into the jetty.
Congratulations!The wild Magikarp was defeated!  Alpha gained 1 level and grew to Level 14! +1 Happiness

HARKER DEFENSE PROTOCOL
!!! WARNING !!!
ATTEMPTS LEFT: CLEARED
A count down looming over Lateralus' head, only time would tell just what would happen if Tobias decided to feign ignorance. A much smarter man, the eyepatched male swiftly figured out just what was going on and while boasting in confidence, had all faith and more in his Porygon-Z succeeding. After approaching Lucretia so boldly and demanding a mission, if he were to lose here and now, it would almost be a repeat of his previous failure back in Unova. Determined to make sure nothing like that would happen again, Tobias' pride was on the line here, as well as his skills as an expert hacker. As his nimble fingers moved across the keyboard, typing out his order, the Bastiodon once again did nothing. It's still and silent pixel work would be frightening to most, especially amateur computer hackers but Tobias had nothing to fear. With a proud enter smacked on the keyboard, he took a seat back, knowing that this would be more than enough to bring success.
 Cyber Defence Bastiodon: | Level 20 | Health: 0% ( 0/60 HP) Status: Normal ...
VS
Lateralus: | Level 33 | Silk Scarf
Health: 100% (109/109 HP)
Status: Normal
Lateralus used Ice Beam!
 Lateralus gained 1000 exp and grew to Level 34! (498/3571) Lateralus can learn Embargo! Forget a move?  Mr.Bear gained 1 level (due to holding Exp Share) and grew to Level 16!
The screen was soon over come with a wave of dull colours, as Lateralus' cyber Hyper Beam tore through the virtual space within the computer. Striking the image of the Bastiodon, it immediately began to give off hazardous flashing, random walls of code filling Tobias' screen at a rapid pace. Pop up windows of loading bars emerged, as if his cyber opponent was trying to force one last chance of retaliation. Each and every time, the attack of Lateralus would knock each and every rebuttal down, all until the screen was completely still. Pixel by pixel, the defense force of Bastiodon began to disintegrate, until a white screen was left. Lateralus returned from the screen and was loaded back into it's own Pokeball. Before he knew it, what looked like a sign in box for an email appeared on the screen. Already loaded with the address of James Harker and long, alphabetic and numeric code, all Tobias had to do now was press enter and the information he required would load right up.
Hacking Successful!
Tobias is now free to search the emails of James Harker and determine how to infiltrate his home!

Thank you all for the lovely comments so far!
The skin was initially based off of zap, our previous default one but I just felt like it needed a bit of an update. An Info Box and collapsible categories was something that has been in conversation multiple times in the past, so I hope people find them useful. Also, me and Joe put in just a few rough Quick Links which we would find helpful but if anyone else feels that something else should be added, feel free to say. I wouldn't want to over crowd it but I might've missed some pretty obvious ones.
I'm happy to see that the width is okay too! I feel that it looks a bit strange on my phone but as some of you have said, it will just take a bit of getting used to. I think future skins will be based on this current skin, so same width etc. I'd like to keep the skins fairly basic. We have a few ideas lined up but they'll come out bit by bit.
Updating Midnightive's coins, above~
