Compiled VOD of my Cinnabar Challenge segments from EUIC 2026, can be found below!

Be aware, the challenge will return... and in more forms than one🔥

And of course, thank you to all the staff + tech + production teams for making this all possible & for their passion to keep making these events bigger and better every time! We would be nowhere without you 💙

I had a lot more games prepared as part of my Cinnabar Challenge, aside from "Poké-Riddle me this" - which I'll look to feature some other time in the near future!

Congrats Paul for the amazing milestone and it was an honour to be there for yet another International win of yours!

Unfortunately couldn't get volunteers onto the broadcast due to limitations, but thank you so much to everyone that said hi & supported me whether through joining the server or giving me words of encouragement across the weekend💙

Words can't express how proud I am to have hosted the largest VGC tournament of all time, alongside such an amazing bunch of people💙

There were the extremely fun times + the challenges, but I decided to lean into being more of myself with all of my random quirks at times!

Also I grew up with 2 of the very best Doberman doggo's which meant the world to me, so naturally I make sure to bring my Houndoom plushie to each event in honour of them 🐶

#Pokemon30 is trending, so wanted to take the time to let you know there is a Houndoom in my house which won't leave & has shocked Barney to his core. I can't find my repels, pls send help

Hello! Apologies for the late response, but yes it is for in-person activities only I'm afraid - apologies if you're not going to be able to make it 😕

Thank you so much buddy, hopefully will see you there but if not hope you enjoy the show 🙏❤️

👀👀

My Italian amici, I know you didn't need the extra motivation - but you're welcome 💙

I'll be your 2026 EUIC VGC host! Similar to how I did back in 2023, I'll be getting a discord server going for volunteers that have the chance to be featured on broadcast for some fun segments!

If you're interested, leave a comment below and I'll send you a link!

Huge shoutouts to my soulmate/wife for joining me on this trip, to my Greeks for the constant support (particularly @GiandamVGC for the team), the UK & EU peeps for the weekend support and for everyone having faith in me during my run ❤️

Top Cut is the next event goal 🔥

Sadly lost my win and in for top cut at Toronto on stream, but it's been an absolute blast seeing familiar faces and meeting many more ❤️

Sorry to let the EU side down, couldn't avoid the bad MU but I'm very proud of my consistency and proving I can battle against the best 🔥

Even old timers can still play some mons - phase 2 at Toronto babyyyy

Found myself in Toronto for the weekend with my lovely wife on holiday 🇨🇦🍁 But much to my surprise, it so happens that a VGC regional is also taking place tomorrow too 👀 Crazy how small the world is sometimes
#PlayPokemon

Solid finish and great overall atmosphere - looks awesome!

Special shoutouts to @davidpartvgc.bsky.social for having to deal with me for back2back weeks in a row. It was an honour my friend and hopefully the jet lag has finally ended🤣

#YouWhatBruv

It's been a whirlwind the past 3 weeks, but a welcome one as I had the opportunity to cast LAIC + Stuttgart to finish up Reg F. It was a double that will stay with me forever, as I was blessed with an amazing casting crew on both events ♥️

#PlayPokemon #VGC #LAIC2026 #Stuttgart26

The honour was all mine matey, was proud to be your partner in crime & be a first-person witness of you absolutely smashing it out of the park with your performance + energy ♥️🔥

Extremely thankful & happy to have casted the first Regional in Frankfurt, alongside a group of fantastic and talented people❣️

Huge congrats to Emanuele for the epic win 🔥Additional shoutouts to production, judges and event organisers! Long live Malamar🦑

extreMely excited to cAst with these Lovely legends in frAnkfurt! i’ve Missed the big stage And i’m Recharged for 2026! 🦑

Soooooo, I kind of lead myself into organising a draft league for Reg H given popular interest amongst the Poké caster circles 🤣

Quite a few peeps will be uploading their draft analysis videos soon (as the 1-week draft just finished), make sure to follow everyone's progress as it'll be proper fun 🔥

We've got a new member of the family - meet our little pup Barney! Also known as Barneysaurus Rex during his zoomies 😂

My insta will probs now transition into becoming a dog account lol🙃

Also both Utrecht & Amsterdam are amazing + beautiful cities that you MUST visit, because you're missing out if you don't!

Finished 5-3 at Utrecht this past weekend. Even though I'm disappointed I wasn't able to go far after starting very strong, I'm contempt with how I played!

Was a blast seeing everybody, s/o's to the goat Pasder for his 33rd placement finish, the team & to the caster crew for the fun Werewolf sesh❤️

Chefcarona in the kitchen 🔥 👨‍🍳

That's the plan, thanks buddy and hope you're well! ❤️
