gotta clear my game backlog before March 5 2026 I guess

oh I so wish I could spoil images on here but a random shiny Patrat from a not super fast shiny hunting spot! Only 24 more shinies to go for my first playthrough!

hey everyone have fun playing ZA on launch I won’t be touching the game until Tuesday (so please don’t spoil me in the meantime)

Been a bit since my last Cookie Run post but I closed out the season on a good note! I ended up clinching 5th NA which while not necessarily my goal given my winning ways still is plenty impressive, with the following stats to back it up. The last month was rough post-ban, but 55-15 in games is nice

I have been looking for this fella FOREVER in PLA, finally excited to add a second of my favorite shiny (and favorite Pokémon in general) to the collection! #shinypokemon

happy 3²/4²/5² to ask those who celebrate

him ❤️

I’m in line at the Pokémon Center for #worlds2025 !! I’ve been in line all day and can’t wait to be in line for another hour!!

hey it’s a video about me??? go watch it I guess???

played a few more Brave Leagues here’s the speed run down: July: 3-1 3rd 2-1 4th 3-0 1st August: 3-1 3rd but with top cut 4-0 1st (on red, not yellow) total brave points are now sitting at 450 once they fix the leaderboards for a “should be #1” amount of points Targeting 600 by end of August!

Kieran is coming to PoMa and his English VA absolutely understood the assignment… entirely unrelated but Kieran cosplay coming soon?

Second local Brave League was also a massive success! Qualified as the 4 seed this time due to some massive misplays in Swiss but clutched it out when it really mattered. Borrowed 2 TKs from the TO which I will be returning after the 2 I ordered come in 😆

Took down my first Brave League tournament of season 1! My LGS allowed proxies this week since the game is new and product is scarce, so I decided to get a nice yellow deck together. The purple matchup was difficult af and I had to pull 3 wins out against it including back to back ones in top cut 😧

Cookie Run Braverse launches tomorrow over here in NA… probably going all in on the game since it’s really fun but might end up posting the lists I take to events here and embracing all parts of the tournament grinder lifestyle

got trolled so hard in world 4 this should have been 1:00:2x

pride month doesnt have to end if you dont want it to happy june 31st everyone

gaming can’t wait to make my unexpected return to Splatoon speedrunning because I now have apparently over a MINUTE of free timesave??????????

hey uhm im so sorry but im a competitive splatoon player not the actual grubhub… thats just my game name

at the midnight release at my local Best Buy time to make an irresponsible financial decision!

People, I know you're super excited for launch but please please *please* have basic courtesy. Some people aren't able to play Switch 2 Welcome Tour at launch and want to go in blind. You should respect them. If you want to discuss the Switch 2's features and specs, give proper spoiler warnings

Redemption for my 21st place in Ground/Dragon High Score event. Now to collect a top 20 title for each of Legendary Gauntlet and Super Sparring!

I swear I’m not trying hard

don’t worry, I’m “not trying hard” this High Score event, I’m just on pace for my best score ever after first drafts of 3 teams

omg the Eevee profile icon

oh hey I held top 30, that’s a first for me in Legendary Gauntlet!

Another gauntlet has come and is going soon, and this one has my best performance both by ranking and by number of clears. I PB’d by 30 in the shortest Legendary Gauntlet that has ever run, and with a bit better planning I feel pretty good that next time, I could get top 20!

hm it would appear that in the last month my Pokémon Masters channel has gotten as many views as my main channel has gotten over all the time I’ve created content, that feels slightly validating that I’m a decent PoMa player

I now have a 75% win rate in my March Madness groups (I won one last year too) - so maybe I still do have a bit of an athlete/analyst in me

what if I planted a super long con April Fools joke one of these years heck I could have done that this year for all you know but I didn’t

we goin to worlds this is so hype

He’s just Nate. 499/500 sync pairs collected, with the last one being the now-unobtainable Jessie & Arbok. It’s as close to dexmax as I’m going to get, and now I can stop using “I don’t have them” as an excuse

did not expect to hear a stadium of people chanting “let’s go, Drake” in March 2025 but I sure did and am glad Drake still lost that game

Unfortunately this post is coming to report my ultimate failure to hit top 20. I gave it my all, but I’m 500 points outside of top 20 right now and am completely exhausted. I learned a lot and congratulations to all of my gym mates who made the cut!

Fine, I guess we play the “hold top 20” game for the next 5 days. I only had plans tomorrow night anyways.

This got pinned twice in pomacord already so enjoy Bluesky: the current known world record for fastest clear of 3k Master Mode ~ approximately 15.81 seconds (this is supposed to be hard)

yaknow seeing live music at a nightclub actually clears going to a concert for it no way I’m getting second row seats at a concert venue but it’s hella easy at the club

Another Legendary Gauntlet in the books (rank not finalized yet). Lowest roster usage % ever, weirdly. I thought I would stop at 120, but some people in the 130s motivated me to join them at their clear count so I zoomed right on past. Stopped next to my guildmate Riku! #screwthebird

the bird finally takes as much damage as it’s dealt to me

Second #DAWeekend is the charm! Got shiny Entei extremely under odds, with four phases in probably 60-65 encounters total. TBD if I'm going to end up hunting Lunala or start looking for a Solgaleo den, since Solgaleo is on my bingo card for the year and Lunala isn't

oh it’s DA Weekend again already, I’ll have to get back on the Entei grind with some of the time I have

Considering streaming some Palworld endgame stuff since I’ve been having so much fun with it recently, also I need to start writing down a list of what armies I want to make because it’s starting to get to be a lot to keep in my head. Should I?

Whenever you get a new sync pair in Pokemon Masters, you get a story for them. I decided that for all of 2024, I would save the sync pair stories and pop them all on December 31, aka tonight. Safe to say I’ll be here a bit…

in this house we play Palworld til 1am, sleep for 5 hours, and then get right back to it

Got one of my targets for 2025 early! Roaring Moon the Peckish on my first Dragon sandwich leaves me with 3 Paradox Pokémon to get: Slither Wing, Sandy Shocks, and Iron Moth :)

“Why not be both?” - Adept, 2019

RTA world record by 13 seconds, but it crumbled late game so I'm going to push for the 37 IGT I suppose

Kieran icon dropped last night on NSO and icymi I would move mountains for this guy so of course it was an instant pickup

oh yeah this was super clean, 34 is just maybe possible with white cloak but already this run was very well executed

Holy. Cow. Split early at the end but IDGAF, THE 39 HAPPENED!!

okay 39 is so doable in Europa, my new chapter 10 strats should save a whole 35 seconds when done optimally and I’ve already done it optimally in a run. Hopefully no hyper boost is required, since that gold got one.
