Playing the Pokémon TCG competitively since its US debut in 1999, I became the first player to win multiple World Championships. In 2015, I claimed one last championship title by winning US Nationals before leaving competitive Pokémon the following year. Tired of the direction the game was heading in, I decided to instead re-explore the game's earliest formats. In doing so, my passion for the Pokémon TCG was reignited, and I never looked back. Spending the last eight years enjoying retro Pokémon TCG, I've blogged about my discoveries, finding great joy in introducing Pokémon fans to the greatest formats in the game's history. Whether you’re interested in revisiting an old format you played as a kid, brand new to retro Pokémon, or an experienced retro player simply looking to elevate your game, I will be delighted to share my wisdom gained from 25 years of playing the game. By booking a coaching session with me, you'll not only learn tips and strategies for winning, including many that can be applied universally to all Pokémon formats, you'll also have fun doing it!

Hi, I'm Bryan, TCG player since forever (YGO, MTG, L5Rs, DBS... you name it!), and pokémon since 2017.

If you want a coach that can give you a unique view on the game to think outside the box (or outside the metagame actually), you're at the right place!!
