Alright, here's where the winners of the tournament will come to claim their prizes for advancing to the next round. Here's how it works:
Battlers:
First of all, you can't claim prizes until your team has either won or lost its matchup.
If your team wins: Claim here. You can evolve, unlock abilities, and buy moves as normal. However, you can only use counters you earn in tournament matches; no UC! Keep in mind that if you buy a move that you bought outside the tournament, you will get refunded the MC. You will not be compensated for EC and DC that you earn both in the tournament and outside of it, however. Your CC can be used outside the tournament immediately.
If your team loses: Claim in the normal prize claim thread. You can also get the reimbursement for moves bought both inside and outside the tournament at this point.
Refs:
You can claim your UC in the normal prize claim thread and use it immediately, but you can not use it on your tournament Pokemon if you're in the tournament.
