As everyone knows, Kairuu-Kolme is Near's third attempt at Kairuu. Kolme means three, so still feel free to call it Kairuu Region.
Now, this thread is addressed more to members who were a part of the Old Kairuu and are coming to the New Kairuu--to help them transition. I will split the information up into categories to make it easier and more organized.
If you have any questions but cannot find an answer that you believe should be below, feel free to PM Near or myself or post on the cbox your question or concern, and we will add it onto here after responding to you.

New members and old members alike must read over the rules. The reason being is that our rules have changed quite a bit--we are not going to be tolerant of people who are going to start problems for Kairuu. We are simply more strict now. Most of the rules are about the same, but you still need to read over all of them--there are also more now, and hopefully we have made them thorough enough that any questions you have may be answered. If not, feel free to contact Near or myself, as you well know.
▌Prison
Speaking of rules, guess what?
If your character disobeys the laws of Kairuu and gets caught by the police officers, they can now go to prison. This is a much more realistic way of dealing with problematic characters or even simply members.
▌Characters
Our rules for characters have not changed much. However, there is one major change that you must take into consideration--all characters must now be of sixteen years of age or older. No exceptions will be made. If your character was under sixteen in the old Kairuu, you will have to make them at least sixteen for them to be able to transition to the New Kairuu.
On the subject of character transitioning. Transitioning is what we call it, and what that is is if you were a member of the old Kairuu and had an accepted character, then you are allowed to bring that character to the new Kairuu. We ask that you still post the profile as an application and check over it to ensure quality. Once it is accepted, however, you may make their PC and keep all your character's items and Pokémon. We will be watching the PCs of transitioning characters to ensure no one cheats, but we don't really need to worry about that with you guys, do we?
▌We've got badges now
Guess what?
You know those certificates you're supposed to earn from gyms?
The Official Pokémon League has officially designed and designated badges for each of Kairuu's gyms! Now you no longer will be collecting those certificates, but full fledged badges.
Oh, and speaking of the gyms--when the League went through our gyms, they had them redo some stuff, and some of the gym leaders may have been changed around, so don't be surprised if you see some new faces in the gyms.
And speaking of other official stuff the League did to us...
▌Kairuu now has coordinator halls
Yeah. Guess what?
Remember how Kairuu used to not really have coordinator opportunities? Like, at all?
Now we do.
The League also had some Contest Halls built around the region, so keep your eyes peeled, and keep your Pokémon well trained and beautiful! The next contest may be just around that tree.
Well, figuratively speaking.
... Although, honestly, we're still working out exactly how contest halls will run, but don't worry, everything will be situated.
▌Adoption Center, Daycare, Breeding
You may have noticed that the Trainer-Owned adoption centers are no longer up, nor is the official adoption center--nor the Daycare or Breeding center. Look closer, if you will--they are still here. They have simply been moved to be more organized and to make a bit more sense.
You may now find all three of these locations in the first Other Area, the PokéBarn. Threads should not be made in the main section.
As far as the rules go, the Adoption Center rules are exactly the same. We will be keeping less Pokémon in there, however--no more than ten at a time, for organizations' sake, and for ease on those whom have to update the list.
[The Daycare and Breeding center are currently being worked on. This section will be updated with information regarding rule changes, if any.]
▌Other Areas
You may or may not have realized that we have a shorter list of 'Other Areas' now. Although this is true, that does not mean we have less Other Areas--although we do have a few less than before. Here is a brief run down of where a few things have been relocated to:
•The Ruins are now located in a sub-board within Soothwind Woods.
•Both the Deepsea Sanctuary and the Pokémon Park (now simply PokéPark) have been relocated to the Valley of Peace Pokémon Preserve.
▌Routes
A few changes have been made to the general lay of the land and the routes, though very few.
•Mallowfox Road, our Route One, has now been combined with Greengold Lake; the two are now the same route. In addition, Greengold Lake now allows fishing to anglers of all levels.
•Orginization Nox and Levis are now located between the Islet of Volo category and the Other Areas category.
•Trainer Homes now has it's own category at the end of the list, with communities (see "Trainer Homes")
[More to come as the boards are made]
▌Breeding
There are some minor changes to the breeding system. Please fully read over the new rules to see these.
▌Trainer Homes
•Trainer Homes have been taken off other areas. Why, you may ask?
Because we've got better, bigger, and much more interesting ideas for them.
Trainer homes now have their own category. There are, currently, four boards, and these are the current four communities. You are no longer allowed to own your own island--too bad, right? But don't worry. You can still live in the island community, Resort Gorgeous, if you want. But you don't own the island.
You can also now own more than one house! There is no longer (currently) a limit to how many properties you may own, so your characters can all own their own homes--or even own more than one.
There are going to be other features brought out with this new change, but those will come as they do--and everyone will be told via the news when they do.
Still being worked on/edited.
Opinonsplz Nearluff? x3 Some of these are really just ideas so far.
