✨Best Audience Ever✨ Thank you Birmingham!

There’s something magical about MCM Comic Con. Being surrounded by people who get excited about the same shows, books, games… and unleash their creativity 💥
Firstly, the audience for my Pokémon Biology panel: Thank you 🙏 You shared your time with me as we explored Snom, Alolan Sandshrew and Spheal. You let me embrace my excitement when Groot and Rocket walked by and joined me on stage 😂 And cheered like Spheals for our two young trainers who helped me out! Thanks to and for making it run smoothly on stage too!
🦭 forge brought a life sized Snom and zoomed him around which was a delight! He then kindly gifted me a little Snom who is going to join me at work.

Genuinely, I am so thankful for being invited back to MCM Birmingham and share the excitement of our real life Pokémon. I’m already in planning for May in London 😎

✨Thankful for ✨
Not only did I get a Thanksgiving gift of their gorgeous new metallic red and green binders, but they’ve given me another year of great memories 💚
While storing my favourite shiny cardboard in binders is a no brainer, my favourite memories come from seeing the team and hosting pack battles with collectors of all ages ❤️
I cannot wait for you to see what the solid dudes over at VaultX have in store for you next year during their big anniversary 😎 but for now, time to get hyped for the metallic red and green binders launching on December 2nd 🥳

💜 Ninetales and Vulpix binder (which is almost full)
💙 OnePiece “All Blue” binder (which also is almost full)

Each seems to get better and I cannot wait for April when we will be at the ExCel for the biggest LCS yet! Tickets are on sale now, and you won’t want to miss it 🥰
