TOP 8 AT PORTLAND WITH UMBREON VMAX! s/o to @cam_freeze and @FishNugget4 for working on the 60. This deck is nuts. Using Radiant Alakazam/Hawlucha after a Dragonite attack is 💯😤. Karen on a Goo is 🤓. So glad to have finally broken into Top 8, feels surreal. +100 CP 465/350

if the @playpokemon inclusion policy involves making a minor feel completely and utterly isolated, alone and sucidal without giving a sh*t about how he felt, then I think we need to take another look at the inclusion policy and how to enforce it. #WeLoveMakani

4-0 again with the spice 🥳 the only reason I’m posting this is to prove that @FishNugget4 isn’t the only one who wins Utah locals. actually he went 2-2 like a scrub see the picture below for reference. so close to the invite. 😭 1/11, +15 340/350

@FishNugget4 is officially all grown up!! everyone make sure to wish him a happy birthday. maybe he will learn to not be picky and eat more than just rice with soy sauce now 🤔🤔
