As a fun aside, here’s my unofficial point totals for each mon this year! Some teams replaced others, so for example, Metagross gets 15 here even though BFLs only gave me 3 from that team.

DD + Ursa are a goated combo

With my first VGC season drawing to a close, I ultimately finished with 689 CP, good for 170th in NA. There’s a lot to be proud of with this result, but I know there’s plenty of room for improvement. Huge shoutout to the Indy VGC community for pushing me to get better!

FINALLY got my first cup win today! With those extra 18 points, I’ve now reached 514 points on the season. Would have been enough points to qualify for Worlds last year, but I’m still proud to have made it this far in my first full season. Let’s see if I can take it farther 😎

Been a minute since I posted here, but got points from the following events:
EUIC +80
GC2 +20
Cup 2nd +40
GC3 +20

Meaning I’m now at 429 points for the 2025 VGC season

Got 2nd place at a cup this past weekend. Though it’s not first place, it’s good prep for Toronto and points that I’ve somehow missed up to this point, so we take those 🫡

+40 puts me at 269 Championship points for the season so far

For all of Shane Steichen’s shortcomings this year, his clock management on that final drive was an absolute masterclass. Also Anthony Richardson is still the future 🫡

This Colts defense needs Robert Saleh BAD #ForTheShoe

My best attempt at the CFP bracket after yesterday:
1. Oregon
2. Texas
3. Miami
4. Boise St
5. Ohio St
6. Notre Dame
7. Penn St
8. Georgia
9. Indiana
10. SMU
11. Tennessee
12. Arizona St
Just outside: Clemson, Alabama (who imo has no shot at getting in barring chaos)

FYI, the current IU football discourse is what Notre Dame would have to hear if they joined a conference. Staying independent is the way to go 🍀

After a couple near-placements yesterday, got my third challenge win today using my personal GOAT 😤

+3 (due to BFLs) puts me at 229 points for the season so far

Hi all! My name is Zach, and I’m a Pokemon VGC player. I also post about college football and Indiana sports (primarily Colts football, Notre Dame football, and Pacers basketball). If any of those things are in your wheelhouse, let’s connect!
