Default Gym League Official Closure

On account of half of the staff being in agreement for the temporary closure of the gym league (with the other half not expressing any opinion) and many of our gym leaders being busy, the Victory Road Gym League has been officially closed down. We will be using this closure time to reform the design of the league to better appropriate the ever-changing metagame and allow for new experiences with with league.

All original badges will still be kept on your profiles for the time being, and they will still be on your profiles in some way, shape, or form once the new league is ready to launch.

The format is as-of-yet unknown but will likely use Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection with legit (non-hacked) Pokémon, retiring Pokémon (DISALLOWED) back to its position as a simulator. With the newly-announced Pokémon Black and White 2 games coming in a mere few months for Japan, we'll be sure to incorporate them into the new league. More details on this will be out after the reform, but for now we ask you not to worry. We will make it work.

Additional information and a discussion board for ideas will be available soon.

Thank you,
Victory Road Gym League Administration

It means that the whole system is going to get an overhaul. I'm sure there'll be sign up for when the new League is created BUT that's not right now. There is also no set date for when the new League will open.

Can you give us an estimate on when the new system will be made/start to take form or is any action on the league being postponed until staff members agree on what to do with the league?

Ideas have been deliberated on before this decision was made, and continue to be. Part of the equation is not just the ideas generated towards this end, though. Other aspects such as activity and maintenance are also being looked into. Just as there is no set date for the release, there is also no concrete projected date at the moment. I would personally assume it to be before the end of this year, but that itself may change depending on the metagame changes BW2 brings with it.

I remember all the talk of challenging the old gyms, and all the old leaders. Good times. Anyways, hopefully I'll take some participation in the next Gym League to come.

Nothing major will be decided until the new games are out. We are hoping they carry a change to the battling experience, so don't expect too much information before the Japanese release.

Yes. The release set the rules and procedures we can follow in creating the league. You are lucky that the American release is not as late as before.
