Got 18th - Top 32 Overall at Milwaukee!! This event has been by far my best performance that I've ever had in a Pokémon tournament. I've played very, very good Pokémon games within this past weekend and I think I enjoyed this event more than any other. First, I'd like to give a special thanks to @Narretgg for the team. The moveset changes are an absolute blast, and a little push from you is enough momentum for me to click on the team within my ability. Shoutouts to @Gabers_ for the mons although I specifically wanted Kingambit to be female for naming conventions lmao Shoutouts to the @PortlandVGC community overall for all the kind words and cheering, although I moved, I'll forever be proud to be a part of y'all! And last but not least, thank you to everyone that I talked to within the past weekend. I tend to don't talk to people around whenever I'm in the verge of elimination to calm myself and trying so hard not to panic, but this event, I did the opposite, and it paid off well, even better than I thought it would. So if you have had even just a hello and good luck from me, I appreciate all of you :) In all honesty, I did not expect myself to be even in day 2, let alone be in this high of position. I always felt like there's something that I need to improve and I still have yet to solve my own problem, but I just couldn't figure out what it is. It started since the unsuccessful runs of 2 times losing to win-and-in once again and a streak of 6 x-3 events in a row into an x-4 to break the streak. Preperations have not been well, and my mentality towards the game has been in an all-time low. However, I realized that there are more people that believed in me than I thought, and were all rooting for me to accomplish high placements. I'm happy to have been broken through my self doubts and performed extraordinarily well like how I wanted myself to be playing. With that said, I do feel like I can bring the team's potential higher, and Milwaukee is definitely a good ramp up for pushing towards even better placements. Will definitely go to Vegas and looking forward to having better games of competitive :)

Woah why are the megas being used first

@me4tball So i went into disbelief, came to bulbapedia, searched “half” on the page and didn’t see it. Then I look around the page again and holy hell i did not know that 😭

is this a safe space to admit i didn’t know solar beam only did 50% in rain

@aboxoftimbits I find that hard to believe this must be edited image

@ZoryaVGC How do I break this to you

Kingambit Rillaboom Magmar Frosslass is about to hit me like crack hit the streets in the 80s

@aboxoftimbits We do be freeze-drying the mega crocs

@aboxoftimbits Right? Like its just straight up an upgrade

Mega Froslass will now be my new muse

Hi everyone! I said I had a big announcement today and I meant it! Please take a look at this. :)

@OAdalbas @justinbyleth Ports*

@OAdalbas @justinbyleth So this is what I meant when you are “docked”: theres a stand for you to hold the switch up, and a usb-c port that will be given to you on your table with ethernet and battery charge provided by a Port Hub. There are some usb porót that you can plug it in and play.

This is a silly VGC question but during offline events how do you not make it obvious when you're going to tera? It's pretty clear what's going on when you hit the R button right in front of your opponent lol

@CbuttyVGC Holy facade is crazy

Pretend Dragon's Maw is Dragonize

@AndyLaVGC Im ngl bro im glad they actually made that happen

Exactly 2 events before worlds is a tiny bit funny

@justinbyleth You would not be the only one who uses a gamecube controller but yeah

@ZoryaVGC Oh so I can use my Gamecube controller?? Awesome

@MatinVGC Welcome home, I’m stuck in houston

I'm home :) thank you to those who attended this year's rendition of "some bullshit happens to Matin while traveling."

I love how I got to the port at 3 for my 8:15 flight at Houston, caught all the Fire Red Safari Zone pokemon, beat 2 gyms, grinded the rocket tower while I move through the line, and still miss my flight 💀

@Gab3hartman Dude fuck you (i love you bro)

Made my flight! After 6 hours in the TSA line I’ve never been so lucky that my flight was delayed

@BroTuSabeElDavo @ValiVGC @WolfeyGlick Torkoal has sun, and its the only mon having helping hand, so you will always get the sun and the fire type dmg boost

Just posted the team report for my Top 32 Houston Regionals team on Patreon along with some replays - won't have the time to do a full video on this one before Champions which is a shame because the team is really funny. Helping Hand Tera Fire Heat Crash can KO Incineroar!

@MatinVGC im hitting the port today at 3pm for my 8pm flight wish me luck

Flights are fucked lol gonna try a rental car to go back to ny

@MatinVGC Im sorry to hear that

@BrokenLegge Crazy

VGC has boomed me for a second my brain literally told me I wouldn't be able to fake out in this scenario.
