## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability dexter-pok-dexter-wagered-battle-challenge-creator-6e4711c6 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Create a wagered Pokémon battle challenge on Dexter for $10 using the gen9randombattle format.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you want to create a crypto-wagered Pokémon battle challenge on the Dexter platform, specifically when the user wants to put real USD-denominated USDC stakes on the line for a Pokémon Showdown match. Prefer this over manual challenge systems when you need a trustless, wallet-linked wager with automatic winner-takes-all payout logic.

## Known failure modes

- Wager amount outside $1–$25 range returns a validation error
- Invalid or unsupported battle format string returns an error
- Insufficient USDC balance to cover wager causes payment failure
- Expired or malformed x402 payment header returns 402 or auth error
- Network timeout before challenge is recorded leaves no challenge created
