2015 International Challenge June

Registration is open for the 2015 International Challenge — June! As the final online tournament to give out Championship Points this season, players within a few points of each other will be trying to get a leg up on each other. The tournament may very well decide the last few spots for the 2015 Pokémon World Championships. Players will play on the Competition ladder on Battle Spot from Friday, June 26, 2015, at 00:00 UTC through Sunday, June 28, 2015, at 23:59 UTC. There is a limit of 10 battles per day for a total of 30 battles in the tournament. The highest ranked players will receive Championship Points as follows in each age division. Championship Points will not be divided by region but instead will be awarded to the top 256 players.

Placement Championship Points
1–2 12
3–4 10
5–8 8
9–16 6
17–32 4
33–64 3
65–128 2
129–256 1

Registration ends as soon as the tournament begins so be sure to get your entry in on the Global Link now. You don’t need to lock your Battle Box until just before your first match. To register, log in to the Pokémon Global Link and click on the Competitions link on the left hand navigation bar. You must have your Player ID linked to your Pokemon.com account that your game card is associated with before the competition begins to receive Championship Points. Results will be released mid-July.

    Yass, gonna join this one, since i missed IC April…

    Playing Mega Alakazam, showing Sejun that we did not forget about it after all.

  3. The CP won’t get me anywhere, but it’ll still be fun to participate in! (I’ll be the guy with the Electivire :P)

  4. Time to fear the mega Pinsir :P

  5. Dreykopff says:

    Here’s a fun story. I’m sitting at 61st place in Europe, tied in CP with 60th place. If all those people around me don’t get too much out of this IC and Bochum doesn’t change too much either, I could feasibly win a useless Worlds invite, lol.

    Pretty much my fault to be in this position at all though. I think I lost count of how many CP I choked away all year, ugh.

    Anyway, looking forward to a nice last 30 games with my only Nats team that doesn’t suck. :3

    Yay birthday IC! Time to play pokemon on my birthday weekend!

  7. zXvindictiveXz says:

    im gunna try to earn myself 12 cp thus ruining someone elses chance at going to worlds >:]

  8. Ready to play against ten singles teams?!?!?
     
    Seriously though, this will be some nice practice given nats is only a couple weeks away.

    that’s right.

    I’m looking forward to this IC, mainly because it’s on my birthday weekend (maybe also because I’m bringing a Kabutops…)

    thanks :)

    So we fly out to Bochum on Friday evening and back on Sunday evening. Seeing as my son won the Junior IC in April I wonder how well he can do playing a few before we fly and a few when we get home (don’t want to risk using hotel wifi while we are out there in case of DC losses).
    I’ll see if I can get myself another pointless 1CP as well lol

  14. Livy says:

    Hopefully I’ll be able to build my Mega Lati team in time. Otherwise Specs Thundy for the win xD

  15. Will just run my Jap Sand team. Any CP would be nice,

  16. EllAkuro says:

    I wanted to get a Trick Room team ready in time, but it’s not looking like I’ll manage that. Sticking with a Mega Lucario team for now, then.

  17. JanobiiChan says:

    I’ve been looking forward for this for quite some time now :)
     
    This will most probably be the last thing in the season for me, then it’s time to write a “season report”, already started doing a picture for it ^_^
     
    Next year I’ll win all Nationals in Europe and go to Worlds though :lol:
