Remember the markings we shared yesterday? Well, the Paldean photographer has confirmed that these were made by a Pokémon called #Grafaiai ! Much like its Johtoan relative Smeargle, Grafaiai's paint come from the balls. Very cool! Stay tuned for an exciting revelation soon!

As a newer player, it's hard to know which teams to use when a new format rolls around. That's why I compiled the best Regulation D teams I could find, and recreated rental codes / pokepastes for any that weren't publicly available. Live now.

I went 11-3 this weekend (4-1 day 2). I got 17th, the only x-3 to miss top 16. That's 20 CP and $250 missed. I'm not attending worlds but you can imagine that either financing someone's next event or deciding their invite given how hard the circuit is. We need a restructure.

Crazy growth in VGC recently, which means new players who weren't around for recent learning experiences. Even if it feels ironic / all in good fun, let's be conscious of how our posts can create an environment hostile towards women or anyone else looking to get in the game.
