Showdown Guide

 Basic Pokémon Showdown Rules and Tips by a Unvoiced Player

  % = Driver
    += Voiced
    @= Mod
    &= Leader
    ? = Locked
    != Muted
     = Normal
   # = RO ( Room Owner )

How To Rank Up and Gaining The Respect Of Moderators, Leaders Or Room Owners.
This Is Not An Easy Task But It Is Very Rewarding as you can stop spammers, Use Commands, Have fun With boTTT, Etc.
- Being A Good Player Can Help But Not Much
- Being A Fun Person To Be Around Will Help

Basic Rules
- Spamming is Despised on Showdown so Never Spam (You May Learn The Hard Way With A Mute Or Lock Especially if nearby Stricter Mods Such As Sunako)
- Flooding Is Also Hated
- Bold Must Not Be Overused or a whole sentence should not be bold
- Respect The People Around You and Do Not Insult Them (Especially In The Happy Place)
          1- You Still May Defend Yourself
          2- You Still May Swear To An Extent
Acceptable Swear Example: What The ____ Is That
Warnable Swear Example: Don't Be A ________
Mutable Swear Example: Shut The _____ Up You ______
Lockable Swear Example: ______ (Insert Mods Name) He Can Go Suck a _______ Because he likes to eat _______.
Bannable and Lockable are the same.

Punishments

Blacklisted (Autoban): Permanently Banned From A Room even when server restarts

Mute: Usually 7-60 Minutes and are pretty small but still are no fun and get  people to dislike you

Warning: Nothing Happens Other Than A Rules Page Appears (If you are warned do not keep going it will get you a real punishment)

Roomban: Temporary Ban From A Room That Lasts until the server restarts

Locked: Arguably Worse Than Blacklisted this Stops the Locked user From Speaking In Any Room or battle you still can speak to mods and this WILL wear off when the server restarts
