Winter Showdown Battle Arena

Welcome to the Winter Showdown Battle Arena, where you can use your battling skills to earn coins for the Winter Carnival!

Here's how it works. Get on our Pokemon Showdown server (http://branchek.dyndns.org.psim.us/), and battle people from the forum with a team that complies with the rules stated below. You can post replays in this thread of up to three battles each day that you have won. NOTE: PLEASE READ BELOW ON POSTING REPLAYS. YOU MUST DO A DIFFERENT METHOD THAN USUAL. I will then reward you at least 10 coins for each win. I might reward an extra 10 if the battle is spectacular in some way. ;]

Here are the rules:
Rule I: No ubers. This means the battles will be OU rules, and you can use Pokemon from the OU tier, as well as the lower tiers.
Rule II: At least one Ice-type Pokemon. This Pokemon can be dual type, as long as one of its types is Ice.
Rule III: No duplicates. I think this is a default rule in Showdown, but you can't have more than one Pokemon of the same species in your battles.
BONUS CHALLENGE: Win with a team of only Ice-type Pokemon for TEN bonus coins! Again, any of the Pokemon can be dual type as long as one of its types is Ice.

POSTING REPLAYS
Currently, you can not post links for the replays directly from the Showdown server. Please follow these steps:

1. Download the replay.
2. Upload the ".html" file it gives you here:
https://uploadfiles.io/
3. Copy paste the link in this thread.

Get battling!

[Suicune's Fire]

WHO WANTSTA BATTLE ME, ICE MONOTYPE STYLE?! (i.e. come get your guaranteed wins here!)

[K'sariya]

WHO WANTSTA BATTLE ME, ICE MONOTYPE STYLE?! (i.e. come get your guaranteed wins here!)

Oh, man... this is tempting. Alright, I'll bite, haha. Discord message me and we can try to see when we're both free? :eyes:

[Soulmaster]

WHO WANTSTA BATTLE ME, ICE MONOTYPE STYLE?! (i.e. come get your guaranteed wins here!)

I'm also available. For K'sariya also, and yeah either discord message me or shoot me a message here.

[Bulbasaur]

In case you guys didn't see, I have a new server with Gen 7 support.

http://branchek.dyndns.org.psim.us/

We got two people on right now. :o

[Cleobel]

WHO WANTSTA BATTLE ME, ICE MONOTYPE STYLE?! (i.e. come get your guaranteed wins here!)

Why not? That can be fun! Please let me know if you want to battle me. :)

[Noblejanobii]

Replay links from vs bulbasaur:
Battle 1 (http://branchek.dyndns.org.psim.us/battle-gen7ou-2)
Battle 2 (http://branchek.dyndns.org.psim.us/battle-gen7ou-3)

[Bulbasaur]

Just so you guys know, you will have to download the replay. You won't be able to get a link straight for the server, because it's not registered with Showdown.

The current workaround is to:
1. Download the replay.
2. Upload the ".html" file it gives you here:
https://uploadfiles.io/
3. Copy paste the link in this thread.

This will allow me to download the replay. In addition, I'll try to stay in the lobby as much as possible. I will work on a better workaround. Currently I'd prefer to not "register" us, because when the last server got registered we got a lot of spam and harassment from a certain user... Anyways, I'll get back to you guys!

Noblejanobii and myself are awarded 20 coins each!

[Suicune's Fire]

Okay, full disclaimer my team is not ready yet and I'm at work all day today, BUT I have a few days off soon so if not tonight/tomorrow, then within the next few days... :33 BUT you have to have an ice monotype team. ;D Well you don't have to. But I'm going to. So I'll be at a disadvantage if my opponent doesn't have one haha.

[Cleobel]

Okay, my team of only Ice-type Pokemon is ready. Good luck with your work!

[K'sariya]

Mine is also ready! Cleobel, I'm in the PXR room whenever you're ready!

[Bulbasaur]

I will award coins at the end of the day. That'll be easier, I've decided.

[Fate]

K'sariya, did you grab the replay of our battle? You can claim coins, but then everyone will know you beat up little babies. ;]

[Bulbasaur]

[Bulbasaur]

It is nearing midnight here in New Jersey, so I will award coins for the battles done on Thursday, January 4th! Speaking of which, the end of a day will be considered midnight in my timezone, Eastern Standard Time.
