Saw this post on r/vgc and naturally every response is a catchphrase for @wolfeglick.bsky.social. So I figured I'd ask the real VGC community here on Bluesky: What do you think Wolfe says when he terastalizes his Pokemon?

Reg H was both my favorite format to play and the format I did the worst in last year. Rn only going to one event but glad to get a second chance at it. There was meta development even as far as the last event so I think we'll continue to see ppl shake things up.

Reg J is just reg I + Arceus lol

Makes you think

Grok rn.

I compete on the Pokémon circuit and post pandemic I haven’t had time to keep up with modern ygo. But I still watch some content, play ddm/cube with friends, and play a lot of Edison. I wouldn’t call myself part of the community though since I don’t go to big events regularly.

Looks like switch 2 will be legal at worlds #playpokemon

Pokémon VGC 2018 Sample Teams These are the sample teams used by top-performing players during the Pokémon VGC 2018 format! Complete with a list of multiple Mega Evolutio...

Showdown now has a VGC 2018 ladder for the month! If you're looking for teams to try, here's a list of a lot of well-performing teams, separated by Mega Evolution: www.nimbasacitypost.com/2018/05/poke...

if i die in a nuclear blast in dc you cant do that "a man died, dont be political" shit. you gotta be as political as possible with it. use it to justify whatever you want. tell them i died because of trump. or because steven universe didnt center aroace voices. or bc ur boss sucks. really milk it!

I qualified for the 2025 Pokemon world championships! This year I really focused on my own teambuilding and I think it paid off. Had some ups and downs but I got to build some really cool teams. Sadly NAIC didn't go my way but overall this was a successful season and I'm looking forward to Anaheim!

LAPD fired rubber bullets at Australian journalist @laurentomasi.bsky.social

Mission failed

This is Lola. She is one of the most skilled soccer dribblers we've ever seen, so it makes sense that she's already capturing footage for her documentary. 14/10

No. My gut says it'll be legal for worlds but we'll see what ends up happening.

Now to not touch it until after NAIC 😭

I just remembered the Runick Diviner Ishizu deck that existed briefly before Tear came out. You'd loop diviner with Spright Elf and play a combo deck that won by deckout or by with one big PEP. I had so much fun playing it an I can't find any record of it though I know I got it from your stream

My hot take is failing to win a 12 person local in two tries is more embarrassing than going 1-4 at a stacked regional

Puffins are social, so to attract them to Maine's rocky islands, National Audubon's Seabird Restoration Program put out decoys to attract real birds.

This puffin is trying to fit in with his new friend by standing on one leg.

Seabird peer-pressure can be intense.

6-2 with rhydon beat all 6 Miraidon I played (and lost everything else lmao)

Portland regionals has the best bathroom situation I think I’ve ever seen at a regional. This is the shit.

I’m the guy who invents new bathroom faucet designs for every hotel. You might know me from Knob That Goes The Other Way and Joystick That’s Hard To Turn Off. Lately I’ve been lacking inspiration, even thinking about hanging it up. I’ve had a good run, but — wait, never mind: Ball You Turn Diagonal

Oh there's only 210 people with their teams submitted so far there's a 0% chance we're hitting 512 lol

Also we're annoyingly close to the cutoff for t256 cp vs t128 cp which is the difference between 4-4 potentially locking up a worlds invite and 5-3 being a toss up for worlds.

If you can't tell I have no idea how I'm going to do this weekend this format is so wacky

Gonna top 8 this regional just to get the playmat

Warning Sirens Were Silent Ahead of Deadly Tornado in St. Louis, City Says

In St. Louis, the sirens to warn people of a tornado threat were not activated by the City Emergency Management Agency before a deadly tornado hit on Friday, and a backup to activate the mechanism that is operated by the Fire Department was broken.

DUCK EATS YEAST, QUACKS, EXPLODES; MAN LOSES EYE Rhadamanthus's Unusually Fermented Sunday Breakfast Causes It to Rise Plecemeal, Blinding Owner. DES MOINES, la. Jan. 2 - The strangest accident recorded in local history occurred this morning when Rhada-manthus, a duck, which took a prize at the recent Iowa poultry show, exploded Into several hundred pieces, one of which struck Silas Perkins in the eye, destroying the sight The cause of the explosion was the cat- ing of yeast whieh was placed In a pan upon the back porch, and tempted his duckship, which was taking a Sunday morning stroll Upon returning from church Mr Perking discovered his prize duck in a somewhat logy condition Telltale marks around the pan of yeast gave him his clow He was about to pick up the bird when the latter quacked and exploded with a loud seport and Me feriins ran into the house holding both hands over one eye. A surgeon was called, who found that the eyeball had born penetrated by a fragment of flying duck and had no hope of saving the optic.

This morning @surliertexan.bsky.social was telling me about this exploding duck and it was TERRIBLE and I couldn’t stop laughing (because I’m BAD) and they were like yeah that’s the sort of thing that would happen to you

Finished 9th at Milwaukee Regionals. Had a lot of fun this weekend and it’s good to be back in top cut. Looking forward to talking about the team and regional on tub takes and in a team report that’s coming soon!

Wait... that's all? 🥱

With a massive Special Defense stat, Aditya Subramanian's Ho-Oh is able to hang on and secure the win to advance them into Day 2!
