Coaching
Hey, I'm Zach! I'm a Pro Pokemon TCG player, manager of The Shuffle Squad, and a content creator. I've been a Pokemon TCG coach since 2010, have taught players how to master the mechanics of the game, and have expertly showcased deep strategies of the game. I am a Regional Champion, International Finalist, and your 2020 Players Cup II Champion! I've helped players from all across the globe achieve World Championship invites, locals Top Cuts, and have helped a handful of players achieve the title of Pokemon TCG World Champion. As I continue to play Pokemon in my adulthood, I've been able to help my wife achieve a World Championship invite in 2023, and I am officially a PokeDad as of September 2024! Message me if you have any questions!
I am a Pokemon TCG player from the Chicago area! I started playing the Pokemon TCG in 2009 when I was 10 years old and played for about 6 years, placing in multiple major events as a Junior and Senior. I stopped playing competitively in High School and returned to the game where I have continued to perform at the highest level of the game. Outside of Pokemon TCG I am a professional actor as well as a writer and tutor!
🌟Hey! My name is Gabe and I am currently the #2 ranked player in North America! I have worked with over 500 students in the Pokemon tcg and I am passionate about helping YOU reach your goals. My main objective is teaching you how to IMPROVE at the game, and not just how to play it. One of my most successful students is Tristian T, who I coached to a Worlds 2nd place, Worlds Top 8, Regional Win, and more! Multiple other of my clients have seen great success whether it be achieving their worlds invite, making their first day 2, top cutting and winning regionals, and much more. I have coaching experience in every division and know what it takes for you succeed. What a session looks like: 1. We will introduce each other, I always love to know which are your goals and what’s your background. This will allow us to really begin to pinpoint our goals, and what we need to work on. 2. We will go over everything you need for the session, and the different teaching routes we can take per class that suites your needs. 3. One of the biggest things when we dive into gameplay, is I want to give you the freedom to make YOUR decisions first. I want to see where your mind leads to first, before we make the corrections needed. I will begin aiding you in sequencing tips, meta gaming analysis, and much more in our sessions. I am incredibly flexible with your needs, and can pivot to whatever core skill you want to improve on.
Hey, I'm Ciaran! I am based out of Toronto, Canada and have been playing the Pokémon TCG since 2011. I have experience playing in both the Seniors & Masters Divisions (2014-2015 onwards), so I am able to provide a unique perspective on the game no matter your age! I was the #1 ranked player in Canada in 2023, and finished in the top 16 masters in the US & Canada. Some of the accomplishments I am most proud of are as follows: 8 World Championships Invitations, #1 Ranking in US & Canada in 2016, winning the Canadian National Championships, Top 4 and Top 8 at LAIC, and my three Top 32s at the World Championships! My job as a coach is to work with you to achieve your goals as a player. They could be as small as getting ready to play your first local tournament, or as large as earning an invitation to the World Championships. Whatever they are, I am confident I can work with you to help you become a better Pokémon player! Outside of Pokémon I have many hobbies and interests I enjoy such as playing/watching basketball, running, sports analytics, chess, travelling, and computer programming. I also coach an Under 18 girls basketball team, and worked 4 summers as a coach at a sports camp in the past. I am confident I can apply my sports coaching experience to the world of Pokémon. Some areas that I excel at are as follows: sequencing, deck building, deck selection, meta forecasting, mental preparation, prize mapping, and general gameplay. It would be my pleasure to help you improve as a Pokémon player, and I am happy to answer any questions you may have. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any!
Hello, my name is Christian Fontenot. I am a recent Regional Champion in the Pokémon TCG, and I am here to help you reach the next level! Through my many years of playing, I have failed more than most. It took me almost half of my life to learn what I know now, and I am ready and willing to teach it to you. I did not get to where I am today through any amount of talent, just raw dedication and a desire to be the best. You don't have to be a super genius to be good at Pokémon, but like me, you might have to work a little harder for it. While courses with me will have something for everyone at every level, they are mainly for those who are struggling and are stuck in their progress as a player. If you feel like you have hit a wall and don't know where to go from here, then you have found the right guy to help you. I have been there, and I can teach you the fundamental skills to break out of that curse, and become the best player you can be.

Hey, I'm Jeremy and I'm a Pokémon TCG player. I have just started playing Pokémon TCG in 2021 and have already had great success. I am a very quick learner, and although I do not have the most experience under my belt, I have a lot of consistency when it comes to my success and goals as a player. Now I want to share all of that success with all of you and bring out nothing but the best in you as a player and help you accomplish all of your goals. No matter how big or small of a goal, I can help get you there! If you're looking for a coach that can help you reach your personal goals in Pokemon TCG, I'm the coach for you. I offer a different take on the game and I'm positive I can teach you how to play the Pokémon TCG better. My strengths as a player are: deck building, prize checking, sequencing, prize mapping, game planning, and general skill set growth. I was able to develop myself as a player that did not even know what the cards in their deck did to a top 16 NA player and a top 25 player in the world, and I would love the opportunity to help get you there as well!
