Still unsure if I like the new VGC circuit, but it will certainly free more private time. I'll be reducing my presence in locals and focus a bit more on high-reward events. A new season means new objectives, so here is where I set my bar: 175 CPs and top4 in CH.

@playpokemon I would sincerely like to thank @playpokemon for killing a growing and passionate VGC community and allowing us to #notplaypokemon

Closing thoughts on the 2024 Season. 232 CPs meaning top 34% globally, top 16% in Europe, and 3rd in Switzerland. Really happy to have achieved the top8 in Switzerland which was the goal. Thanks to all TOs and new friends made during the whole season. S.

Late Update: ended the season with a 268/898 place in Bologna. Went positive but still no CP in a Regio. Fun fact, this season I also finished 268° in Stuttgart. 2024-25 goal? Easy, better than 268°.

Last PC of the season in the books. Happy with the result, but even more happy to have a new member in the Romandie Community that well deserved the 1st place! Big thanks for the whole season to @FiaroTv for organizing and developing the Western Swiss scene 🎩

@DamoVGC Did you tell him that Pokèmon Masters play for Eternal Glory and not for money?

At our MSS I was playing table tennis with this 14yo kid. He asked me how VGC works. I told him about CP, events & the Worlds invite. He then asked me about the prize money and when I said 30k, he was like .. lol pathetic - You get six-figure in Fortnite MINUS TAXES BLABLIBLU 😭

Thanks once again to @DamoVGC for hosting across the whole season 🙏🏽

Last MSS of the season closed with a solid top4 that gives continuity to previous results. Off we go with the last PC on Wednesday in Lausanne, and then the Grand Finale in Bologna next weekend 🔥

L’Espagne avec un gouvernement écologiste et d’extrême gauche: - Baisse de la criminalité - +2,3% PIB - + 1,3M de postes - inflation post-covid à 1,9% - Blocage des prix de l’énergie - Suppression TVA sur les aliments de première nécessités - Reconnaissance de la Palestine

Weird day at Today’s MSS in Lausanne. Top4 tied at 2-1 and resistances did non play in my favor. Thanks once again to @FiaroTv for organizing and hope next time we can get more participants. GG to all and see you next week for the final Swiss Showdown.

Another PC in the books, happy for the result, but most importantly to see a very engaged and passionate Suisse Romande community growing 🤩 Thanks to @FiaroTv for organizing and congrats to all participants! +30

Very Happy for today’s result in the MSS. At least the 8h train ride was profitable 💪🏽 +32 Congrats and thank you to all participants and @SwissVgc for organizing!

Embarrassing result at this weekend’s GC. Still don’t get how such a competition can grant so many CPs. Luckily I got my first PC win last Wednesday (+30). Thanks to all Lausanne VGCers and to @swissfiaro for hosting 🙏🏽

My third Regional is in the books. A bit disappointed for the negative record (4-5), but still happy for the consistency of results also in the Midseason (4-4) and for some solid wins. Thanks to @SwissVgc for the fun weekend 🇨🇭

@Riddler_Khu “Don’t touch my brother, filthy Momotaro!”

Wow, who’s the artist? Do you think similar things would happen in Sudachi2?

@DamoVGC It’s my ghetto bro, taking away CPs from Lausanne needs to be approved by me💪🏽

Guy appears outta nowhere and goes 3rd

It has never been as awesome to be a VGC player in Switzerland as it is currently. Up to 170 CPs are up for grabs & I'm not playing a single one of them, so you might win here and there >=) Feel free to join us. Chum verbi suscht müemer es ernsts Gspröch füehre! Pls share.
