Each BBP player has a Profile Thread of their own. The OP of your thread is basically an overview - it will contain a list of your pokemon, current items, TC, RC, and JC totals and any other miscellaneous information such as Gym Badges, Raid Relics and TLR Items. Each subsequent post will contain the details on a number of pokemon (between 8 and 15, although Gym Leaders may make a post with their entire Gym team - which might have fewer than 8 pokemon - should they wish). This may seem like unnecessary pc++ but should speed up editing posts and avoid hitting the image cap or 502 bad gateway errors that users with large profiles had before.
How to format a registration
Registration used to be done by making a single post in a large thread called the Registration Tower. Because the profiles eventually became too big, registration is now done by creating a new thread for your profile in the Registration and Prize Claiming subforum. The title of this thread should be "Profile:" followed by your username. For example, Profile: Coldclaw would be the thread title for the profile of the player Coldclaw.
The first post of this thread should look like this:
All subsequent posts should contain nothing but the profiles of your Pokemon. To start with, you should put all of your Pokemon in one post, but as you get more and more, it is advised that you split your team over multiple posts. As a guideline, one post should contain no more than 15 Pokemon profiles, and it is not worth making a new post unless each of your other posts (besides the first post) has at least 8 Pokemon profiles.
