Q: Is prior zine experience necessary to apply?
Not at all! While prior experience is always a bonus, we plan to give each contributor a fair appraisal when it comes time for applications.
Q: What even is a
Battle Facility?
In Pokémon, a battle facility is a location in the main series where players can battle other Trainers without earning experience or prize money. Often these facilities are headed by a specialty trainer that the player has to win consecutively without breaking their streak to reach.
For more information on which facilities count for this zine please see our
Battle Facility Catalog.
Q: Will characters other than Facility Heads be allowed?
Yes, you can include any other canon characters that appear in the series, however we ask that the focus of your pieces be on that of the Battle Facility and their bosses!
Q: Are we allowed to create pieces involving ships?
No; romantic pairings will not be allowed as this zine is intended as a Gen SFW zine. However, platonic dynamics between Facility Heads or their challengers is encouraged and allowed!
