Interviews, behind the scenes and women in Pokémon on EUIC 2025

Hiiii! Aw this was an amazing video, had a smile on my face the entire time. I'm so happy you got to go, even though it's sad that your best friend couldn't come. I hope that it doesn't take long until a sponsor makes it possible for you to continue attending tournaments like these! I am so happy you got to watch Wolfe Glicks epic win live :) Also loved you dedicating a portion of this video to women and non-binary players as well as inclusivity. I also think that the sisterhood league's name should be changed to something more inclusive. But also, it's Pokémon we're talking about, so my expectations aren't huge 😂 It was so relatable that you spent money you didn't have on those things and the Pokéballs looked so cool! I'm not a merch person in general, but those would have seriously tempted me as well, especially the luxury ball 😊 I try to catch every shiny in that, if possible. I super appreciated you stating that even though you were near Wolfe a lot of the time, you didn't approach him. That's super considerate of you, I also wouldn't have done that. He needs all his mental capacity for the ongoing tournament. Lastly, I was hoping someone in the comments help me understand what the difference between Pokémon worlds and Pokémon Europe Internationals is? I would have thought that Worlds is bigger given the name, but Europe Internationals seems to have been the biggest tournament to date in terms of the number of competitors. Both are open to international players as well. So I'm confused what the difference is other than one tournament taking place in Europe and the other in Hawaii. Or is that the only difference? Thanks in advance!

Fofissima!
Seus vídeos são muito bons, otima narrativa!
Congrats!

Eu não tinha nada além de um sonho e o cunty, que eu estava servindo.

I thought it was the sword art online opening at the beginning

that's a Pokemon trainer outfit

In 2018 I played in a local tournament in the Masters division. There was one player who ended up added into the division because seniors and juniors are so so rare where I live. This kid's parents attended the tournament with him, hanging out in the game shop and asking the Pokémon adults questions about how the tournaments work. The way they supported their child was so inspiring to me. Though he didn't place very high, the father still told him how proud he was and that they would study up and play even better next time. Everybody gave each other, including that new player and his family, big hugs and high fives before everyone parted ways after the event to go home. I love this community so much because of magical moments like this!

Amiga, ficou daora o estilo Joana Constantine

Omg that's amazing that you got to go and had so much fun. I will definitely try to get spectator passes for next year's EUIC. Or even a Regional nearby. I wonder if there are any regionals that take place in Portugal 🤔

Congrats for getting invited!
Dyl was such a fun challenge for Wolfe, I was biting my nails until the last turn of the last round. Wolfe killed it, insane GOAT run rn

You make this whole tournament look so fun! Will you be covering more events in the future?

You gotta go live and take some superchats and fund the California trip!!

It's been such a joy to watch your journey, and I just absolutely love your storytelling - especially in a second language! Your videos are so full of heart and joy, here's to many more (without breaking the bank)!

The first thing that I thought about when I saw Dyl in the finals was your video about the queer Pokemon community. This is a win for all of us :)

girl your content means so much to me!!!!!!!

Back to 2014, when Sejun got champ with pachirisu, wolfe was actually bringing Gothitelle in his team...
So... can we have Gothitelle instead of incin

Yooo you met shiny stone?! That’s awesome! I can’t believe you’ve only started posted a year ago and you’re already off to see events, that’s one hell of an achievement.

Girl you look hot in that lil suit fit

Nice video!

Thank you for another amazing video! So glad you had a great trip 💜

I also want to say thanks for talking about the Sisterhood events. Last year I went to my first official Pokemon tournaments (Worlds and my local Regionals in Toronto). I'm so glad Pokémon has made space for women and gender nonconforming folks but I'm sad with choice of "sisterhood" for the title. 🙁 As a femme perceived nonbinary person who is regularly misgendered I just haven't felt comfortable participating. I hope they update with a more inclusive name soon so more people like myself feel able to join in. 💜

Loved the storytelling, amazing video!

this was amazing! thank you for sharing this side of the events i had no idea existed and dont get coverage on the official streams <3333 this was wonderful

Going to one of these events feels like a dream for so many pokemon fans, thank you so much for sharing your experience! As a queer pokemon fan, I'm so relieved that the pokemon community is relatively safe space, especially at big events like this :]

This one tournament introduced me to so many vgc content creators it’s insane

This video made me cry several times (in a great way!) Fantastic. 💖

This video was so goshdarned heartwarming haha, thank you dear stranger online

I hope you get to go to Anaheim. I love your content and you bring a lot of positivity to the community 😊

So glad we got to cross paths!! Finally got around to watching this today and your video captures a lot of the emotions and magic I felt when attending my first IRL Pokémon event. Thank you for putting it together - I hope this is just the beginning of more VGC content!!!

this was a fantastic video and I really enjoyed hearing about your weekend :) I’m a fellow queer woman and I spent a couple of years being a worlds competitor in the TCG and the warmth of the hobby I felt really shines in your experience too. I’m so glad it’s still there and I really want to return to the large events again to get that feeling back!

this video is just amazing!! i have a huge group of friends who are pokemon fans, many of whom play competitive via showdown or vgc (one of them was competing at EUIC!) but almost all of them are guys, whereas it’s always intimidated me even just thinking about getting into it because of the sheer lack of visible women and queer people in the scene. i’m also not the most naturally competitive person so i’ve been too scared to even participate in our own friendly tournaments LOL your channel and the people you spotlighted in this video are really the only things that have ever made me reconsider that stance and i think maybe there is a future out there where i do give it a shot! <3

saved this video to watch when i had the proper bandwith and im so glad i did, it was so wonderful 😭so happy to hear that pokemon events are a welcoming space for everybody even if its still male dominated!! was so excited to see you get invited to euic, ive always wanted more latina creators on poketube to get recognition and cool opportunities like this (mexican woman here)

leaving a comment in hopes the interaction gets u to worlds :p trust

This was so wholesome! Really enjoyed seeing your experience at EUIC, thank you for sharing! I don't think I'll ever get to attend a tournament like this, but this was a nice way of experiencing it without actually being there ❤

VOCÊ É DO BRASIL???

Would love to see you at Worlds 2025. But 2026 would be good too. Congrats to Wolfey for winning, to Dyl who made it so far despite being a newcomer. I think Wolfey is right that we'll be seeing a lot more of Dyl in the future.

This is so inspiring to hear that you got to have this experience a year into your PokeTuber career! Congrats!

I cannot imagine a more tragic downgrade in food quality from Brazil to London

Im SO glad the algorithm fed me this vid, from one trans pokegirl to another across the world, you are an absolute delight and I'm so happy to hear your perspective on pokemon events 🩵🤍🩷

oh my god what a delightful video!! i love this channel so so much, it's such a beacon of joy & community & love. congrats on the sick opportunity, thank you for sharing your adventures!!!

This video is actually making me tear up, I'm definitely going to have to make an effort to attend VGC events! The release of Z-A and Champions seems like it'll be a great time to dive back in, and hopefully I'll get to meet fantastic folks like you, Wolfe, and Dyl! Pokemon has always been my refuge as someone with a lot of weird identity stuff going on, and people like yourself remind me of why I love this game and community.

So happy for you!!

As a trans fem who loves watching wolfey, I'm so glad I came across this channel

I wish we could have run into you! My girlfriend and I were there all 3 days of the main event, and we had a blast. It was our first time going for more than one day, second time going overall, and it was so much fun.
The proportion of visibly queer and gender-nonconforming people was a pleasant surprise, and it really put me at ease. Having the option to have my pronouns on my badge was great too - I got a little burst of affirmation every time I glanced down and saw "they/them" on there. No-one batted an eye when I mentioned having a girlfriend while chatting to my opponents in the one side event I played (TCG, was meant to be Build & Battle but ended up being 6 boosters), and even though it was definitely mostly male-presenting players, there were an encouraging number of female and gender nonconforming players too. I also got chatting to a mother and daughter in the queue for the "Who's That Pokemon?" activity, and the little girl - 7 years old, I think - was so set on learning the games and competing when she gets a little older "because there's so many boys, we need more girls in the championships!"
We unfortunately skipped the Sisterhood events because neither of us brought our Switch, we don't have viable TCG decks and I don't have a good GO team. We're definitely planning to be more prepared next year in case they run again though!
We didn't manage to see as much of the earlier rounds of the competition as expected because of trying to complete the scavenger hunts (the photo challenge was really tough every day!), going to the Pokemon Center, flipping through cards at the stands and trying to get into all 4 activities in the Play Lab. Because of that, the first we knew about Dyl's success was towards the end of Saturday - my girlfriend was watching the screens while I was still rummaging for cards and she messaged me saying "hey, one of the competitors playing right now appears to be a British nonbinary person" - I RAN down the hall to go see! Unfortunately, because Sunday's competition ran so behind, we had to leave before we saw Wolfe and Dyl face off in the final or we'd have missed our train home. We watched a replay of it at home instead, and it was so tense - it would have been incredible to see it live.

Yes. We out here and we out here worldwide

As a huge nerd, brazilian trans girl, watching your channel kinda feels like having a one-sided conversation with a close friend. Keep up the good work sis

Thumbnail did Wolf dirty.

I'm glad you enjoyed London, I wish I had a chance to meet you

Nossa Chico Bento indo longe, vaamoooooos🎉🎉🎉
