This discussion is for informational purposes regarding the Group Ranking System. The GRS is a system designed to show how dedicated someone is to Pokémon, including more than just their knowledge of it. A high Rank shows that they have succeeded in proving themselves to be very knowledgable and experienced in the series.
The Ranks themselves are designed to follow the Numerical Order of the species' creations. For example, everyone will start out at Bulbasaur, and will continue down the line to the Master rank, which is after the final Pokémon. Yes, this means the Mew Rank is lower than the Chickorita Rank. It's all about the numbers; this system just puts pictures in place of them.
Members and their Ranks shall be kept and displayed here, and will be constantly updated. Members can gain ranks by showing off their knowledge with quizzes or clever comments, or by impressing me in some other way. To see the Ranks as they stand, check the post beneath this one.
