A few days ago, the Pokemon Global Link announce the second International Challenge April for this VGC 2017 season. For those of you who are unaware, this is an online tounrament where players of all skillsets ladder and attempt to get the highest ranking possible in other to get Championship Points or CP l(link provided to see the ammount of points received to top players). As a compensatory prize, all participating players will receive all three Hoenn Starter Mega Stones: Sceptilite, Blazikenite, and Swampertite. Note that all three Mega Stone aren't released yet and this is likely the only way most players will be able to receive these items unless distribute or following games. However there is a catch, in order to get these Mega Stones, players must have battled at least 3 times, and anything below they won't receive their compensation prize. Registrations for the IC will start at about April 19th at 00:00 UTC until April 27th at 23:59 UTC. Afterward, from April 28th thru April 30th before likely 23:59 UTC is when the battles will commence and end. 

With all that said, what do you all plan to do in preparation for the upcoming IC challenges. Will anyone attempt to gain Championship Points or will you just interested in the Mega stones. Share with us your thoughts about the upcoming IC.
