146th at NAIC. Bubbled out of top 128, but happy with my first IC day 2. List was solid. Shoutout to @mattsPoKeTweets for matching 60s and collab on apples with me for the past few events. @PokeLuluTCG for letting me play the “pretty fez” and @KempKris for good vibes and hangs.

Probably my favorite moment of day 1 at NAIC was having my opponent @RollBro bench the entire kanga squad at a single time to clear his hand, rip Lillie’s and pray 😂 super fun set, and a super cool guy!

Yay! Dawn is broken! +18CP 2/4 for the season. Shout out to @mattsPoKeTweets for showing up to watch me in top cut! #pokemoncupwin #dawnzard #pokemontcg #Charizard

Won today’s cup with @mattsPoKeTweets and I’s Zard list. It was an awesome time rolling all the way to the finals together with the same 60. #zarddominance +18CP Got some good testing in after as well- it was a great day to play some pokemon!

Can’t give @Hella_Chell enough credit for helping me craft the 60 I played to worlds. Thank you for being such a great testing partner and friend. Easily one of the best players in the game, watch for a break out 2026 season from her.

Worlds was such a blast! Extremely proud of @mattsPoKeTweets 12th place finish in Masters TCG with ole faithful Charizard. Pumped and ready to hit the upcoming 2026 Pokemon season and lock in some good finishes in the first half of the season. Pittsburgh here we come!

watching your own finals must be nice. #Gardevoir #pokemonworlds2025

12th place at the POKEMON WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS ❤️ Dream run. Thank you to EVERYONE who supported over the weekend. Huge shout out to @Hella_Chell for being my ride or die with the list and helping me prep, one of my absolute best friends @KempKris for coming to hang and @ZanderBennett for providing great feedback on the play. Shout out to my family in Tennessee made me feel massively loved. @theemilyrhodes, Patrick, Christian, @dylanxcurtis and my Utah gang @gettereec, Parker, @PokeDuelsTikTok, @FishNugget4 (especially for your “respect and support”) and more. Also proud to play for @GameGridLive in the 2024-2025 season. And @playpokemon (and its ambassadors) - thanks for taking a shot on a group of people who “bubbled” at 700. You made one of the most exciting days of my life possible. If I could give any advice, stick to one deck and get good with it. If you want to talk Charizard, hit me up. See yall in Pittsburgh - you know what I’ll be playing 🇺🇸😈

Pulled this gem in pocket this morning in the first 10 packs ☺️ I love the artwork, probs my new phone wallpaper #EeveeGrove #PokemonPocketTCG #pokemonpocket

8-2-2 w/ Pult Zard for 47th at Vancouver Regional this weekend. Had a few plays I could have done better that could have pushed me into a higher placement, but live & learn. Proud of my first Day 2 run. Shout out to @mattsPoKeTweets & @KempKris for the support #ptcg #PokemonTCG
