The gear is here! I’m really curious which Pokémon will show up on these frames and darkslides. It would probably be tricky to coordinate subject/frame combos so whatever happens happens 😹

I spent a good chunk of yesterday sitting outside the Chase Center and watching the games’ finals as we waited for Go surprises, which felt silly 😹 But I did catch the wave! It may be a long while before I attend another Worlds. I’ll always cherish these memories, zany lines and crowds and all lol

I attended PokémonXP yesterday and the sheer scale is just mindblowing. What a packed production and a crazy spectacle-filled way to honor the franchise

Really enjoyed Pokémon Worlds Night at Oracle Park! Nice guest appearances and graphics, and my section was even featured on the Jumbotron before the game started ⚡️

I’ve seen all sorts of visual shenanigans but I have no clue what is going on here 😹

Glitchy visual shenanigans in Pokémon GO. A Naganadel appears to be possessing Mewtwo. After feeding Mewtwo, a shiny Galarian Articuno took its spot. I don’t have either registered

It’s so good! They really leaned into the whole bit since that’s how the game itself goes down. Couldn’t get that last stamp due to time constraints but I did get this awkward photo of the station. Seemed fun 💚

Neat Splatoon Raiders launch event even if the line was a bit gnarly 😹 This fan base is always so hype

I also took these Polaroid shots at the MADE and they’re kinda funky and surreal! Glass Joe is being vaporized apparently 😹

Finally visited the Pacific Pinball Museum ( @pacificpinball.bsky.social ) and we were blown away by all of the historical displays and tables. I still have a ton to learn

Visited the MADE ( @mademuseum.bsky.social ) for the first time in a loooong while and we really loved all these setups and displays. Tons of Psychic Force 2012 among other VS antics

A cool mural featuring an entourage of video game characters including Centipede, Pac-Man, Mega Man, Chun-Li, Bomberman, Bullet Bill, Mario, Yoshi, Sonic, Crono, Donkey Kong and Pauline, Lakitu, Bullet Bill, Little Mac, and Glass Joe. There is also an Atari controller in the lower right

Got into Polaroid and took a bunch of Pride-themed photos! It’s just been so much rainbow fun, and thanks again for all the kind 🏳️‍🌈 words! 🎨🌈🌸
