EVALUATE MY BATTLING!

Trainer Tip: play nice and keep it civil.


things to keep in mind:
→ This is encouraged, not mandatory. We will not penalize you for not using it.
→ Feel free to link your personal HMDs if you would like, just in case someone doesn't want to use the mass HMD post.
→ this is more for actual critique and discussion. Please don't just blindly praise a person or just call them horrible. If someone's doing a wonderful job, you can tell them, just tell them why, or even where they're showing off bonus perks. If someone's doing a not-so-wonderful job, tell them why, give them things to improve on if you can. Examples, links, things that can give them something to work on. Meaning, no bashing, flaming, or nasty behavior. Please keep it civil.
→ Anonymous is turned on! But note: anonymous is a privilege, not a right. If it's being abused to bash players, please be sure to let one of us know and we'll step in or freeze threads if necessary. If anonymous is abused too much, it will be turned off for the next HMD.
→ Don't take this all too personally! Remember that roleplay is a game, and crit is supposed to help, not make you feel horribly. No one is perfect, we've all got room to improve. Please keep that in mind.

Hey, anon!

In the interest of full disclosure, we do have to own up to making one, but this is one case where we as a team feel that a Tactical TPP Strike™ is far the funniest and most graceful way of tipping our hat to an existing aspect of Pokemon culture without running the risk of turning the dead Rapidash into any more of a wide scattering of horse-shaped molecules than it already is. We're glad that you feel we've handled the matter well, and appreciate that you took the time to let us know.

(We figure we'll save the deceased-equine-beating for jokes that are more original to Route, like "when in doubt let's use Clair as an excuse" or "no, Alex, you cannot drop the moon on anything, period".)

Best wishes!
