Assuming I got the count right, removing the JPN players for their own circuit puts me at 505th so +35CP 🥳🥳🥳
Placed 995th in the GC with Mirai + terrain/sunny day Thundurus. Very fun combo that caught people off-guard, especially with Tera ghost Mirai.

Mirai/Hands/Hearth core remains goated

+20CP (204CP total)

This clearly did not happen…woke up at 8:55am and proceeded to go 7-3 in Professor Kai’s limitless tour 😬
Gonna try and stream on Twitch for the first time in 4 months tomorrow morning! Hopefully my computer cooperates since I’m using a diff capture card. (Also depends if I can get up…it’s at 7am Pacific)

Oops forgot to keep posting here…here’s my Reg G 1.0 meteor Beam Eternatus spread as an apology.

Used this set for months and really enjoyed it 90% of the time. Absurdly bulky, can live a 252+ glacial without Tera l.

Prepping for regionals can be overwhelming, especially the week after an International. Let’s look at what’s been doing well, which comps were successful at LAIC, and where the meta is headed going into this weekend. Whether you’re going to Sacramento or not this a must-watch before your next event!

The naming theme I settled on for Sacramento makes me very happy 🍎 👖 Hoping at least a few of my opponents catch on, but it’s harder when you only see 2 at a time.

Sac prep going poorly so I’ve just been on a shitter team kick. Bringing it to a local tomorrow for funsies. Not expecting to do well so any win with this CTS team is a plus 🥳

Slapped at a local
with the crushing reality that snow is the worst weather 🥲

Starting to lock in my team for Sacramento. Truly need redemption from my terrible performance at Baltimore (2-6)

Practicing hard and hoping for the best 🫡

Went 4-2 (13/51) in the Friday Night Fights tour using Crabominable. Bubbled Top 8 cut since my losses were early on.

Crab is harder to use than Glaceon but it def fills a bigger role. Sad I can’t bludgeon things with 130 SpA blizzard tho :(

OTS for the chilly reception + snow cloak Glaceon team

Very fun and very silly. Definitely struggles against some meta teams but making some refinements to get consistency in CTS. Probably too difficult to work this in OTS

Top 8 with the new Toxapex+TatsuDozo team. Definitely as disgusting as it sounds 😇

Using an item on my new team that is probably among the rarest #VGC items: binding band. Multiple people have used the !data function on SD in open team sheet matches against me 😂

Oh my beloved Toxapex I’m so glad you’re back
