Well, not my best tour, but not the worst.
5-3 in sets, but my last two wins were ffs/no shows.
Could've played a lot cleaner, but I can definitely learn a lot from this one.

I love how every time I find a team I like in a 2nd round of a regulation, the metagame is insanely prohibitive of that team being remotely enjoyable.

Woke up at 7am, drove 2 hours to Fort Wayne with some of the Indy guys to hit up a pair of Cups, went 2-1 in both to walk away with a 3rd and a 2nd place finish!
+40 on the weekend, 3/4 BFLs for Cups filled out, and was so close to hitting 4/4.
One more to go for December 👀

If I had a nickle for every time I ran around in circles looking for a shiny in Legends Z-A, only to find out it was just a Pidgey on a light post, I'd have three nickles.
Which isn't a lot, but damn, why do I have 3 shiny Pidgey now?

Loudly FaceTimeing in a restaurant so that everyone can hear it should result in a large fine, community service, and being required to wear a sign that says "I'm an inconsiderate ass" for 365 consecutive days.

This was diabolical and an absolutely brilliant Game 2 adaptation.
What a beautiful double switch! 🤩

2nd at the Challenge yesterday and 5th of 13 at the Cup today... dropped 3 sets and all of them were because of Incineroar 🙃
Still. +12, so 150 points on the season.
