Showderp is wanpela community (in the loosest sense of the word) of pokémon showdown players on 4chan's /vp/ (pokémon) board that serves as wanpela self-regulating, self-maintained, 24/7 tournament. Depending on who you sangana, showderp is based rum the concepts of creative karamapim tok non-stagnant teams, unorthodox bamim effective strategies, karamapim tok the ability to adapt to any situation tactically instead of relying on copy-pasted competitive sets to kanda your team.
…or depending on who you sangana, it might just be wanpela chaotic mess of forced memes, spam, karamapim tok name-calling.
showderp started in spring 2013 when wanpela user named "lc guy" started the first thread karamapim tok acted as the original champ. It has somehow kept itself going, sustained entirely by the efforts of the mostly-anonymous users, for over wanpela year karamapim tok shows no signs of slowing painimautim. The generally accepted rules are as follows:
When the old "showderp champ" calls for wanpela new champ, the first user to post with wanpela tripcode id (tripfags, as they’re commonly known), becomes the new champ.
the first six (valid) pokémon requests posted after the new champ’s claim are the new champ’s team. No exceptions
