The console game industry is looking so bleak now that all of the big three are bumping up their prices, maybe it's about time I make a Steam account and move to it

A new VGC ladder just went live on showdown? Must be a good time to add more VGC sets for it into the Damage Calc!

Hope these VGC 2011 sets help (Also finally adding Rivalry functionality)!

idk why everyone keeps talking about Regi though none of the Regis are legal in 2011

My best Global Challenge run yet! I did some actual practice with this team before the tour like simulating a GC run and I think it paid off. Also stopped early with 9 games left. Might post the team tomorrow, not sure. Hope it's enough for top 32 (and for Liberty Note results)

I think my goal tonight for the GC is going to be to get to high 1600s, and if I don't burn through too many games, I'll finish the run tomorrow

I think I'll stream the first couple games of the GC tonight (like 5ish maybe more) and then I might discuss Pokémon Champions after

I know I just got a big prediction wrong from this past presentation but I'm thinking that surely the Worlds announcement this year for vg is going to be the release date for Champions

Shadow drop after the ceremony if they're real

I was VERY wrong

~12 hours until the Pokémon presents, I'm gonna say the only mainline info we're getting is an SV tera raid and a Z-A trailer

I'm also predicting that we'll get enough info on Z-A to tell that we WILL play VGC on it

I got destroyed this GC so I think I need to move some of my practice to in game ladder

Also ngl I think streaming my run without the mic on does best for my mental, would recommend if the GCs mess with your mental too
