I love this show so much so far! 💚

I still can't believe most content creators and players in the Pokémon community won't leave Twitter.

Yes, a bunch aren't loading.

The side pony wag! 🤣

Yaaaasss!

Peak cuteness?

That's really fun. I love that.

I wanna say, "Hey look, it's Strongbad!" cause that's funny, but I know it's Incineroar.

Pro tip: When you want to post art that you are a bit embarrassed about you can always write "commission"

It, again, truly doesn't matter whether vibecoding actually caused the outages or not - when you start bragging about how claude is making every engineer on staff more productive and the site goes through months of persistent downtime, that's a Statement.

This episode made me worry for the rest of the season. 😭

This was funny.

Is that a Pokeball?! 😯

I can see this.

Clustering Player Performance in Pokémon TCG Tournaments: A K-means Approach to Identifying Performance Groups Based on Wins, Losses, and Tournament Statistics ABSTRACTThis study applies K-means clustering to analyze player performance in competitive Pokémon TCG tournaments, categorizing players into four distinct performance groups based on metrics such as wins, losses, and ties. Using a dataset comprising over 186,000 players, the study identifies key clusters representing varying levels of success in the game. The data was preprocessed by handling missing values and standardizing features to ensure uniform contribution across metrics. MiniBatchKMeans was employed to optimize clustering for large datasets, resulting in a model that groups players into low, moderate, and high-performance categories. The clustering results provide valuable insights into the distribution of player performance and help identify trends in competitive dynamics. A Silhouette Score of 0.4582 indicates that the clustering is moderately effective, with some overlap between clusters, suggesting that further refinement may be needed. Visualizations, including scatter plots, box plots, and heatmaps, were used to interpret the cluster characteristics, showing that top-performing players cluster into smaller groups, while a large majority of players exhibit moderate performance. The findings offer important implications for both players and tournament organizers: players can refine strategies based on their cluster profiles, while organizers can use clustering insights to design more balanced and engaging tournament formats. Future research could explore alternative clustering methods and incorporate additional performance features to further optimize player segmentation and enhance tournament design.

🚨 #PokemonTCG paper alert 🚨, and it cites my co-authored paper from last year! My first academic citation!!

Among other things, the authors find that a staggering 60% of players drop out of tournaments. They go on to offer some innovative ways to improve player engagement and tournament structure.

ハルスグと…(トレパロ)

Yep.

Came to the comments to see if this was here, lol. So close to cowboy hat Caterpie. Like, it almost feels insulting that they'd give Caterpie a hat and it NOT be a cowboy hat.

I first read that as Nintendo switches and was super confused for longer than I want to admit.

🤯

This is so cute!

ASI ES COMO FUNCIONA UN TEST DE ANTIGENOS POR DENTRO

This was a crucial part of my childhood, lol.

Jumping on the gyaru Bulbasaur trend.
💚💚💚

I'm excited for more of this. Still haven't decided whether to watch it week to week or wait till the season is over.
