ROLL CALL.

This will be simple.

WHAT: Post on the club to say that you are willing to continue being known as a fellow Ghost-lover. Of course, new members are welcome.
UNTIL WHEN: Hopefully I'll be able to start updating in Six days' time. [check the timestamp on the bottom left of this post for the starting date] the update includes the member list, new ways to obtain the club seals and things in that area.

IMPORTANT: You are not kicked from the club if you don't reply in six days. All that'll happen is that you'll find yourself in the soon-to-be-added-if-needed Retired for Inactive Periods list and all your previous rankings reset. This only really affects now since I'm going to change how to obtain differently. Of course, you can always come back and rejoin us in the near future.

Have you noticed that upto generation IV, there are only eighteen different ghost pokemons (excluding different forms)?
Ghost pokemon are known to be rare, to be unique and to be... mysterious.
With the coming Generation V, a chance of new ghost pokemons coming in has increased! what kind of ghosts will join us? what kind of ghosts do you want?

THIS IS A MAKE-YOUR-GHOST CONTEST~!

[b]name of this fan-made pokemon:[/b]
[b]optional additional details:[/b]
[b]date/time of submition:[/b]

yes, you are required to give it a name (e.g. gastly)! optional additonal detail includes; what type is this pokemon, made you make this pokemon, or what the dex data will say or something. since it's optional, it's fine to leave it blank~ you can leave out the date thingy, but I'd prefer if you put it in because of the time differences; the date here is YOUR DATE/TIME ok? PLEASE REMEMBER TO PUT IN THE GMT OR DST THINGS~
