How this will work: You will challenge your opponent in pokemon showdown in gen 4 randbats. If your opponent doesn't respond in 10 minutes of you initiating the challenge, it’s an immediate advance. Once your games are done and through, @dophkin to report your scores! Good luck all and have fun!

Once semi-finals hit, it will go from bo3 to bo5
