Applications are open for Hearthome City, the 2nd season of Smorgon's The Challenge series! Explore the streets of Hearthome City as you compete with many other players to emerge as the champion and net the $50 grand prize! See below for a link to the server and information about the season.
The season is hosted by SirFish, awa and Rouanet. Helpers for the season are GuyGuard, Willow, yocho, Yosh and ch3mdah.
This is a Pokemon-themed Online Reality Game modeled after the MTV show The Challenge. However, you don't need any familiarity with Pokemon or The Challenge to play! We welcome people of all experience levels to our community!
If you're new to The Challenge, here is a brief explanation that will help explain how it works:
- Players will be able to explore a Discord-channel based map and talk with other players around the city
- The game is broken up into cycles and at the end of each cycle players are eliminated from the game
- Each cycle is comprised of three parts, the challenge phase, the voting phase and the arena phase
- Players who do the best in the challenge phase will earn safety, otherwise they risk entering the arena
- Players then vote on each other to determine other people to enter the arena
- The arena phase will see the subset of players battle it out for a chance at safety and avoiding elimination
To sign up, all you need to do is fill out the application form and join our Discord server. The application is how we get to know you, so be sure to put in some details! Casting is solely based on the application, and only a portion of applicants make it to the final cast.
