MY POKÉMON TRAINER CARD 🪪
Get to know a little more about me, including my favourite Pokémon, and what titles in the franchise I play on the daily 💛
Plus there are a few social stats in case anyone wants to work with me 👀
I can’t quite believe I’ve reached 1.6m total video views, completely organically! Taking a moment to be proud of myself 🥹

I recently got to bring Miltank along to a meeting at 10 Downing Street! 🩷
What an honour to enter such a historic building, and to be able to share the experience with Milly 🐮
I’m not able to talk too much about the work I do, but it’s safe to say Miltank kept everyone happy and hydrated with her Moo Moo Milk for cups of tea 🫖
(Thanks to @galarexplorer for the amazing edit ✨👏)
BOY, 7, MUGGED FOR POKÉMON BATTLE CARDS. That little boy was me… 24 years ago today! 😢
Hear about my stint on the front page of my hometown newspaper the Hartlepool Mail. Stay tuned for a Part 2 of what happened next ☺️
The first confirmations of attendance to the Pokémon World Championships 2026 are being sent out! 📧
I didn’t apply for Creator so am awaiting the Spectator email to arrive in the coming weeks – are you hoping to attend in San Francisco? 🇺🇸
Having gone to Worlds last year in Anaheim, I can’t recommend the experience enough! Imagine an international champions x10, it’s such an epic event! 💛
I’m sharing some snaps from my trip to mark this exciting period! Fingers crossed for everyone who applied to the Interest List 🤞

Pokopia is the best Pokémon spin-off of all time? Discuss! 🗣️
For me, it’s the easiest yes! As much as I love Colosseum and XD especially because the childhood nostalgia is strong with them, Pokopia is exactly the direction I’ve wanted Pokémon to go in for a while now 💛
Pokopia represents Pokémon expanding the franchise into new gaming genres. The depth of the maps and customization options in this game have really blown me away. Was it a risky move? Sure. But has it paid off? Absolutely! 👏
Mobile games like Unite and Sleep are close runners-up, but I think Pokopia was a slam dunk. Let me know your thoughts and spin-off rankings 📢

PIKATUESDAY – WORLDS PIKACHU PLUSH 💛
With the Interest List for the 2026 Pokémon World Championships closing this week, I thought to showcase my Worlds Pika Plush all together (this was such a balancing act!) ⚡️
I have 2015’s from Boston, 2017’s from Anaheim, 2019’s from Washington DC, 2022’s from London, 2023’s from Yokohama, 2024’s from Hawaii and 2025’s from Anaheim 🤩
2010-2014 will all be near impossible to get now, but I’m still holding out hope to get 2016’s San Fran and 2018’s Nashville Pikas! 🤞
Which Worlds Pikachu plush do you have in your collection? And are you signing up to attend 2026’s World Championships! 💭

Mini Life Update 💛🤎
Hello everyone! Just popping in today with an update on lil’ old me, using a pic with Pikachu and Eevee to entice you to read 😂
As some of you may know, I’ve been in-between roles the last few weeks, which has meant I’ve only had an older ropey laptop at my disposal. I really got into my stride with Reels editing this year, and it sucks to have had to lose momentum without the ability to edit how I like to with Premiere… but there is great news! 🗞️
I have landed a new job which I start next week that I am BEYOND excited about! I’m excited to share more soon 🥰
Because of the gap in work, I wasn’t able to prioritise LCS this past weekend, but I hope everyone who went had a cracking time! I have felt a little out of the loop, but positively, the goal of attending @playpokemon Worlds 2026 is well and truly back on 🎉

Introducing Charjabug’s Charjabuds! 🌷
I’ve finally started properly terraforming and developing my Withered Wastelands in Pokopia, and Charjabug’s store is the first to open for business 🐛
His flower shop is Kanto’s premier destination for first-class floristry. Inside are an assortment of flora-related items alongside pre-made potted plants. Plus there’s workbenches and sinks for preparing bouquets 💐
Design wise, brick and rough walls are painted in lime, with blue and white awnings and yellow woodwork that all match Charjabug’s aesthetic. Outside, every variety of plant and tree can be found, the most relaxing setting to sit with Professor Tangrowth 🪻
Setting up shop has been tiring work though… I caught Charjabug sleeping on the job 😂

MOO MOO MILK WALL LIGHT BOX 🥛
I have had so many messages about me buying this, and I’m so glad it’s home! 🐮
I have absolutely no idea why Pokémon decided to make a Moo Moo Milk lamp, but you bet I was excited as Miltank’s Number 1 fan 😂
This may be the most niche item tailored to me EVER?! 🐄

What’s a Pokémon that you have a collection of that you really didn’t see coming? 🤔
Mine’s not a Pokémon at all per se, it’s Substitute! 💚
I picked up the lifesize version at the @playpokemon 2022 Pokémon World Championships in London, and I’ve never looked back. Subby is a *huge* part of my room 😂
I still need the Comfy Friends one (I want it with the Japanese tag though!) but I have picked up the plush and keychain from the Elfuun No Migawari line rereleased in 2023 🥰
Whether it be plushies or TCG, what’s the Pokémon you collected that you never expected? 💭
✨ @pokemonnewsuk@pokemon@pokemon_jpn@nintendouk ✨
Pikachu is here to serve some piping hot tea! 🫖
This is one of my most prized possessions from my collection, the Japan-exclusive Pikachu enamel kettle from 2012 💛
This piece has so much charm and character! I love the glossy sheen, and the attention-to-detail that this is a male Pika – check out the tail on the back!⚡️
This goes upwards of £150 easily on eBay, and I managed to snag it a few years back for £111, so not my biggest bargain, but a good price considering how sought it after it is in the current market 🤑
Do you ow any Pokémon teapots/kettles? ☕️
