HK Games: Six Guys One Team

Six Guys One Team!

(Part of the Hiker Clarence series of Pokemon Showdown mini-games)

In this game, six players have to jump on one alt and personally take control of only one Pokemon. Before any battles take place, a team is chosen and each player chooses one mon to have control over, nicknaming it after themselves. Once established, the crew hops on the ladder and either tries to win or overcome the sabotaging of one of the teammates. This game tests your ability to either cooperate or thwart the efforts of others! Choose to become either the leader or the rogue!

EXAMPLE:
Players: aim, gator, chimp, moet, blunder, emvee
Team: Landorus, Magearna, Tangrowth, Toxapex, Tapu Lele, Alakazam

Each player would either squabble or fight for what mon they want to control or have it randomly assigned. Once each player has a mon, change the nicknames of the mon to reflect who controls it.
Team: moet (Landorus), gator (Magearna), blunder (Tangrowth), emvee (Toxapex), chimp (Tapu Lele), aim (Alakazam)

When a battle is found, one person selects their mon as a lead (whoever is the fastest to click). From this point on, only one player has the discretion to attack or switch based on what mon is out. In this example, if Magearna is out, only gator can decide what move to use or what other mon to switch out to (he can switch out to any mon he wants, but once they come out, he relinquishes control). If a mon faints, then it's up to the other players to scramble and get their mon out. Like choosing the lead, the player who is fastest to click (or whoever Showdown decides clicked last) gets to send out their mon. Try to see how much you can win with such a cumbersome arrangement!

CAVEATS:
-No ghosting. Each player has to make their own choice of moves independently of the others' wishes. Like the Dodrio lives, the heads can't talk.
-No predetermined strategy. It's up to each player to decide what is essential to win. If they make an oversight, then they have to bear the consequences (i.e. roasting).
-Do whatever you want. The general goal is to win, but if you want to screw up the other players, then feel free. No one is forcing you to cooperate.
-Rule 8 always applies. Do whatever you want to make it more interesting!

Have fun!
