Rule 1
This is a literate site. Meaning that you need to have exceptional grammar. There's nothing wrong with a few mistakes, but please, do not make your posts a jumbled mess that make it impossible to read.
ILLITERATE POST:
"ruth would scratch at the dirt and look at the sky what a great day it was. she would flop about and glance at the other pokemon, who would blush and look away when they looked at each other."
This would be an example of an illiterate post.
Not only is it... Painfully short, it is also grammatically incorrect.
So please.
Do not make a post such as that.
Rule 2
No Mary Sues, or Gary Stu's.
These are the "perfect" characters. Flawless in every aspect, unable to be harmed, and make everyone think they're hot and the most datable thing on the planet. These are pretty much what makes them up.
Do not do this.
It's not fun for anyone in the RPs, and quite honestly, it's extremely obnoxious.
Rule 3
Absolutely no discrimination! This means you cannot make fun of someone based on: Sex, wealth, appearance, sexuality, religion, ethnicity, etc...
I don't care what your reasoning is, this is wrong. Breaking this rule will likely result in a quick and immediate ban.
No exceptions.
Rule 4
Swearing.
This is something that isn't much of an issue. While most swears are tolerable, there are certain ones that aren't.
The N and C word. Which I care little for typing out.
I'm sure you can figure what those ones are.
Also...
No swearing every other word, that is excessive.
Do not wear out the privilege of free speech on this one.
Rule 5
Legendaries.
Ohohoho... I bet some people were hoping this would be ignored.
Legendaries are extremely significant in the Pokémon world, meaning not just anyone can play as one. In order for this to be a go, it must be discussed with the staff, and agreed upon.
IF Legendaries will even be a playable Pokémon on here.
Rule 6
Banned Pokémon
Yes, we will have a number of banned species(excluding Legendaries)
Each species of Pokémon will have a limit to how many they are allowed.
Eg: Piplup
6 Piplups are allowed.
Currently there are 5
If a species has the same amount as the quantity they are allowed.
Eg: Eevee
7 Eevees are allowed.
Currently there are 7
This species is banned from having anymore.
So basically, if you sign up with a banned species, you will receive a warning for not looking at the rules.

RULE 7
If you read the rules, put...
Smog, Rofus, Sour Key, Gummi or Derp in other of your bio.
RULE 8
Smog, Rofus, Sour Key, Gummi or Derp in other of your bio.
RULE 8
Post size.(and bio size)
You see that word counter down there? Yep.
Each roleplay post /must/ be at LEAST one paragraph (6 sentences), unless you are in a huge rush, or have extreme writers block. Even then, your post must be more than 4 sentences.
Your bio must have 280 words in it that have been made by /you/ not the format.
(Use a calculator to check if you need to!)
