Battle Master¶
The Battle Master runs the server's competitive battling ladder. Take on tiered Battle Challenges against trainers scattered across the story regions, earn Battle Points (BP) and Battling skill XP, and spend your BP at his shop. A separate Battle Tower in every region offers a second, tougher way to earn the same Battle Points.
How to access¶
The Battle Master is an NPC standing at the skill hub in the Skill World. Use /battlemaster (or the short alias /bm) from anywhere except the dungeon world to teleport straight to him, then right-click him to open his menu. From there you can pick Battle Challenges or the Battle Point Shop.
Handy commands:

Battle Challenges¶
There are four challenge tiers. You can only have one active challenge at a time. Click a tier in the Battle Challenges menu to accept it: you are assigned a random trainer at a random town or route somewhere in the story regions. Travel to that location and the trainer appears, then throw a Poke Ball at them to start the battle. Each trainer fields a team of up to six Pokemon. Challenge battles run with Mega Evolution enabled and Dynamax off. Only you can start the fight: a Poke Ball thrown at someone else's challenge trainer is cancelled.
Where you get sent depends on the tier. The Novice tier only ever sends you to a region's starter town or first route. The Skilled tier adds the early cities and routes. The Expert and Champion tiers can send you anywhere across the regions.
| Challenge | Requirement | Trainer team level | Battling XP | Battle Points on claim |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Novice Challenge | Battling level 1 | 30 | 5,000 | 2 BP |
| Skilled Challenge | Battling level 30, plus at least one gym badge | 50 | 25,000 | 4 BP |
| Expert Challenge | Battling level 70, plus defeating at least one Pokemon League | 100 | 75,000 | 6 BP |
| Champion Challenge | Battling level 90, plus defeating all nine Pokemon Leagues | 90, rising with your win streak up to 100 | 150,000 | 10 BP |
When you win, the Battling XP is granted immediately and the challenge is marked complete. You then return to the Battle Master and click the completed tier to claim its Battle Points.
Losing to your challenge trainer resets your win streak, but the challenge stays active so you can try again. Fleeing or forfeiting the battle resets your streak and clears the challenge entirely.
Win streaks¶
Expert and Champion challenges build a win streak. Every fifth win in a row is announced to the whole server.
- Expert wins award +2 Battle Points immediately, on top of the 6 BP you claim afterward.
- Champion wins award bonus Battle Points that grow with your streak, on top of the 10 BP claim.
| Champion win streak | Bonus Battle Points |
|---|---|
| 1 | 0 |
| 2 | 6 |
| 3 | 8 |
| 4 | 9 |
| 5 | 10 |
| 6 or more | 5 plus your streak length |

Battle Tower¶
Every region has its own Battle Tower, a ten-floor competitive gauntlet that pays out the same Battle Points you spend at the Battle Master's shop. There are nine towers in total (Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, Alola, Galar, and Paldea).
How to enter¶
Find the Battle Tower NPC in a region and right-click it. You must have defeated that region's Pokemon League to enter. Once you qualify, you are teleported to Floor 1.
The rules¶
- Each floor is a competitive 3-versus-3 battle against a trainer whose Pokemon are all level 100 with perfect IVs.
- Legendary and Mythical Pokemon are banned from your party while challenging the tower.
- You cannot ride Pokemon inside a tower, and you cannot use
/pcor/pokegiftinside a tower area (use a PC Machine in the lobby instead). - Win a floor and your party is healed and you advance to the next floor. Lose, flee, or forfeit and you are sent back to the lobby with your party healed, and you start again from Floor 1.
Battle Point rewards¶
Clearing a floor pays Battle Points based on how high you have climbed.
| Floor | Battle Points |
|---|---|
| 1 to 2 | 4 BP each |
| 3 to 4 | 8 BP each |
| 5 to 6 | 12 BP each |
| 7 to 9 | 16 BP each |
| 10 | 32 BP |
The first time you clear Floor 10 in a region, that floor's Battle Points are tripled, you earn that region's Battle Tower badge, and your feat is announced to the server. Conquering the Battle Tower in all nine regions earns an extra server-wide announcement.
