PR TIMES

My Pokémon journey began at age 6 with "Pokémon Ruby," and my father later bought me my first Pokémon cards. We've played together for 22 years now. After struggling competitively, I developed new strategies and ultimately won the 2022 Pokémon Japan Champions Series Masters Division.

My mission remains unchanged - I want to share the joy of Pokémon TCG with everyone and demonstrate each card's potential through my unique playstyle. Through YouTube, tournaments, events, and international competitions, I'll continue connecting with players worldwide to showcase this game's magic. Thank you for your support!
