Top 32 Louisville, really need to improve on my day 2 performances, still happy to do better than Baltimore and Worlds. Thanks @AldridgeWa8136, @MewTJ04, and @Zeky_thg for hanging out, @SVCardArt for being awesome, and @noahlesak and @Wet_Goose for coaching. Too much dragapult🫠

Beckett got silver in Louisville but he had to pair close friends to get there (@LynnOono, @HwangDynastyTCG, @Snow79121094). S/o @88Cardhouse, his teammates @RanCharles58055, @ObluckiJames86, and the awesome coaches @ciaran_tcg and @Jctfordd. Happy birthday to his Mom!

Decided to generate Glicko-2 (similar to ELO) ratings for the 2026 Seniors Pokemon TCG season. Juniors and Masters available too -- keep in mind this is ratings for just the 2026 season with everyone starting out equal. You can see your rankings over the season and also sort by peak rating. tcgseason.com/ptcgevents/ran… Navigation of the site is a little sloppy, but the data is fun to interact with.

Top 64 worlds, pretty bummed to start 7-1 and then my deck not functioning for 3 rounds straight :(, still happy to do pretty well. Thanks to @microphage and kaeden for working on the list together, @SVCardArt, and @somadoooooo and lucas green for hanging out all weekend. 🙃

Finished 230/379 at Worlds! 🏆 What an incredible journey it’s been. From Top 4 at NAIC to competing on the world stage, I couldn't be prouder. Now, I’ve decided to step back and retire from competitive Pokémon.

My goodbye Thank you for everything, Pokémon ❤️ docs.google.com/document/d/1…
Thank you, Pokémon

Thank you, Pokémon

For the first time in a long time, I am not competing in the Pokémon World Championships today. I fell in love with the game as soon as I touched a card. My ridiculously competitive nature latched...

Watching the new @WolfeyGlick video as a Dedenne enthusiast 😢
