I’ve always struggled a bit to make friends. This last season I’ve gotten closer to some people that I see at every event and it’s been great for my mental and made the tour way more exciting. I catch myself getting excited to go to majors just to see people a lot of the time.
It’s always nice when your Pokémon friends become your real friends, even if u only see em IRL a handful of times a year, really take some time that and appreciate that u have found these people from around the country or even around the world though a shared hobby, but have built relationship that transcends that

As a competitor it’s really nice to have people I can trust and talk to about the improvement cycle. As a human it’s nice to not feel completely alone when I fail to meet the mark. Which has been often this season I feel incredibly blessed by who I have met and spend time with

Despite many hard events this season I always felt like I had people in my corner who believed in me. And every major despite the losses was a good reminder of that because of the awesome people i got to see. It’s part of why I am so confident that next season is my time…

Seeing Annabelle make it to the finals two years in a row is something I never dreamed would become reality. I was hopeful, of course; just like every Pokémon trainer and every parent. Losing in the finals is something we can accept, especially against an exceptional player like Luke. Our kids have experienced their share of losses, and that’s part of competition. What I never expected and what truly broke my heart was hearing people boo her simply for playing the game. Annabelle didn’t hear/see the negative part of the crowd during her match today, and for that I’m grateful. But hearing it myself has left me questioning whether competitive Pokémon is a healthy environment for her. What hurts most is that many of the people rooting against her today are people we’ve celebrated alongside. We’ve sung happy birthday to their children, given gifts, congratulated them after great performances, and cheered them on through Regional top cuts and World Championship runs. I completely understand supporting your favorite player. What I struggle to understand is making another child feel unwelcome and ashamed simply for competing. My daughter has one of the kindest hearts I know. No one could honestly say she has ever intentionally hurt anyone. She approaches this game with sportsmanship, always doing her best while treating others with kindness. She started playing Pokémon because Jeff showed her how incredible both the game and the community could be. Annabelle is full of joy, compassion, and a carefree spirit, and I’ve always wanted to protect those qualities for as long as possible. Today was an extraordinary accomplishment and I could not be prouder. She stood on one of the biggest stages in Pokémon, competed with grace, and represented herself exactly as she always has with heart, respect, and courage. Mommy is so proud. I love you, Annabelle.

81st/3752 10-3-1 Bubbled cash 😿 But can’t be too disappointed breaking my 9 event long cold streak and getting double digits at the biggest event of the year. Very proud of how I played this weekend. Variance was very poor. Looking forward to taking no prisoners in 2027

On the anniversary of my last day 2, I break my 9 event long cold streak. The variance today was truly miserable. I got donked 3 times Despite that I still played some of the best games I’ve ever played and converted. A very good feeling that will begin to be my norm in 2027
